terror

4 Muslims were arrested in Denmark for planning to bomb a newspaper that printed controversial cartoons of the prophet Muhammad.

Those cartoons are apparently still worth killing for in the minds of radical Muslims.

More on this here.

38 Shiite Muslims were killed, and many more wounded today in a suicide attack near an Iranian mosque in the city of Chabahar.

And the Facebook Jihad continues. A man in Virginia was caught sending Facebook messages describing his plans to detonate bombs throughout Washington D.C., and on the Metro.

Awais Younis, who was born in Afghanistan, was charged with threatening to set off explosives.

This is the third time this month Facebook has been used to plan terror attacks against American citizens. Should Facebook respect the privacy of its users or should the network report these conversations to protect Americans?

Today is the second anniversary of the Mumbai terror attacks in which hundreds were brutally murdered or wounded, in shooting and bombing attacks across the city by Islamic terrorists from Pakistan.

Although 2 years have passed since this tragic event, the threat posed by radical Islamic terrorists is still very much at large. We cannot allow ourselves to forget that radical Islam continues to jeopardize innocent lives on almost a daily basis. We owe it to those killed in the Mumbai attacks to keep ourselves educated about this threat.

For details on the causalities of the attack, and a list of the deceased, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casualties_of_the_2008_Mumbai_attacks

Let us all take a moment of silence to remember the innocent victims of the attacks.

US-born, Yemen-based, al-Qaeda member Anwar al-Awlaki, who inspires and recruits violence against the West, has been described as the “bin Laden of the internet” (by Arabic satellite network Al Arabiya) and as “the most dangerous enemy of the US because of his ability to recruit followers and inspire attacks” through the internet (by the CIA).

In hundreds of YouTube videos, al-Alwaki explains in captivating English complete with pop culture references, why the Western world is evil. USA Today gave the example of one YouTube clip, viewed over 40 thousand times, in which Al-Awlaki references the passing of Michael Jackson to make a point about the certainty of death and how Jihadists should not fear dying for their beliefs.

Wednesday, YouTube removed hundreds of these videos, which feature calls to Jihad by al-Awlaki. The site had been under pressure from both US and British officials to remove these videos, but only really took these demands seriously after this past weekend’s failed bomb attempt by al Qaeda.

Now maybe it’s just me, but must we really wait until al Qaeda fails to blow up two airplanes en route to the United States, to realize that a terrorist who preaches in perfect English in hundreds of online video clips, enabling his messages to very easily reach Western audiences, poses a huge threat to national security??

Maybe humor will help wake people up!

Channel 2 investigative video reveals the threat that terrorists are sneaking into the United States past the Mexican border. A Congressional report confirms the fact that members of Hezbollah have crossed the 2,000 mile long border. The report also documents the route that the terrorists take to get into the United States: They start in the Middle East travel to Europe then from Europe to South America to the border regions. There they learn Spanish and try to blend in with other illegal immigrants including Mexican drug lords who help get them into the U.S. Yet another important piece of news that is ignored by main stream media!

Did you know that only 2o cents on the dollar that you pay at the pump pays for gas? The rest goes to the country where the oil was pumped. No wonder Radical Isamic terrorists aren't experiencing a recession.  ButI have bad news for terrorists worldwide.

America, Europe and China are working ever so slowly to cut off your funding. In this case Coda Automotive is working to build electric cars that will  bring "End Dependence Day." (its their slogan and I like it.) Not only are they planning on making the car in California but they are just inked a deal to make the batteries in Ohio. That means 1,000 new jobs in the heartland where our people needs jobs bad. Anyway check out the Coda Automotive website, cool car, cool site, just another way that we can stick it to radical Islam everyday.  

Capt. Scott Smileys skied Vail, climbed Mount Rainier, got an MBA and won an Espy award. He also served in Iraq and was injured in a roadside bomb attack.  He has risen to the challenge of losing his sight to become the only blind member of the US Armed Forces. Not only that he's a happy hero with a family. I had the chance to meet him about a year ago and was totally impressed by his poise, conviction and belief in our nation. I had a chance to sit with him and listen (I watched) The Third Jihad with him. He shared with me his views on radical Islam and terror. I remember that he was sitting with his wife and I couldn't help thinking to myself what a role model for our nation. Here is a guy at the prime of his life that had everything going and he lost a major part of his life, his vision. He isn't bitter and isn't willing to give up. I am so happy to hear that he will be joining the faculty at West Point.  If you want to learn more see the whole MSNBC article here.

Did you know that the Department of Defense is the world's single largest consumer of energy in the world?  According to DESC (Defense Energy Support Center, the guys who buy all of DOD's energy) in 2008 they spent over $17.8 billion to run our military.  The vast majority of that oil (~80%) comes from people who give their tithes to terrorists (typically 2.5%). So just to understand: $17.8 Billion is what our military spends on energy, or $14.4 billion the Middle East. Of that $356,000,000  is going to help the guys who are laying IED's, killing our soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan and who are hijacking ships off of Africa. Maybe the Department of Defense should consider Alternative energy? What do you think?
