Update
Computer Warning From Del
Below is a message I received yesterday, which did have an
attachment with it, that was labeled to be a Word document. Because I do have a
court appearance coming up for a traffic matter, I thought it was about that,
that I had lost track of the date, and was in trouble. So I went to open the
attachment. I should have noted that the return address was not from a court or
government site, and that I was not addressed by my legal name as a court
document would do. The download was a Trojan Horse, which one of my safety
programs stopped from deploying. It took nearly three hours for my full
antiviral scan to run, which found that file plus others it had already
quarantined. So I erased them all completely, and things are now OK. These are
smart jerks putting this stuff out, so we all need to be very wary of anything
coming in that says "Open this!" or "Click here!" Be
careful, very careful. --Del.
I find I get a lot of sites where it goes to a "warning" that my
computer is infected, or I need to download an update to this or that. You
can't get out of the site except for alt-control-delete, closing all open web
programs. I currently have adware pop-ups on many sites that slipped through my
defenses that are annoying, though not dangerous. ~Bob
Book Recommendation: Questioning Islam: Tough Questions & Honest Answers About the
Muslim Religion. By Peter Townsend
Townsend does an excellent job of research using the
authoritative versions of the Qur'an, the strongest of the Hadiths and the
biography of Mohammad accepted as authoritative by most Muslim scholars. For
those who don't know, the Hadiths are the traditions of Mohammad and his
companions which Islamic scholars say are essential to understand and practice
Islam. Sunnis and Shi'a accept different ones as being the strongest, but for
example, the Muslim declaration of faith (There is no god but Allah and
Mohammad is his prophet, and the other four "Pillars of Islam" are in
the Hadiths, not the Qur'an. He also uses archeological evidence and other
writings from the time of Mohammad and of the Hadiths (like the Qur'an, written
down decades, often centuries, after Mohammad died) to question must of Islam
history and teaching. He tends to use both superlatives ("Jaw Dropping"
revelation) and slightly pejorative language (Muslim apologists) which I think do
not strengthen the book. Nevertheless, this is well worth reading and will give
you a strong background in both Islamic history and the claims of the Muslim
religion. ~Bob
This short (45 page) book is an easy read and an excellent
introduction to Shari'a Law. Many people talk about Shari'a, but few have any
knowledge of what it calls for, as witness the cognitively-challenged folks who
say it is compatible with the US Constitution. Of course, Shari'a varies from
jurisdiction to jurisdiction, a leading cause of early death among Muslims who
can't agree. But it is drawn from the Qur'an and Hadiths. Everywhere there are
groups seeking, often by violent means, to implement more strict versions. Fully
implemented, it includes executing gays and Muslims who leave Islam, stoning
women accused of adultery, wife beating, polygamy, child marriage and slavery
following Mohammad's "perfect example," and women or infidels as
second class citizens without the rights of male Muslims. his is a quick way to
familiarize you with what the main schools of Islamic teaching call for in
society. Shari'a is a theocratic system of government--Islam recognizes and
tolerates no "separation of mosque and state." Worth reading. ~Bob

Reset: Russian ships in old Arctic NATO base set
alarms bells ringing. By Pierre-Henry Deshayes
Excerpt: Russian ships docked at what was once a secret
Norwegian naval base in the Arctic have prompted concern from the NATO
country's former top military leaders, anxious about its resurgent eastern
neighbour roaming nearby. Norway 's
jagged Arctic coastline has regained its strategic importance since tensions
between Russia and NATO
members have spiked to levels not seen since the fall of the Soviet
Union .
Excerpt: The troubled U.S.

Race Card News
Whoa: Gallup
Excerpt: He sent a text to his research guru, Frank, and
later that day Frank sent me the results of
an ongoing survey on ideological preferences I had never seen. I was pleasantly
surprised at the results! Fully 26 percent of blacks identify their ideology as
conservative, compared to the 35 percent national average. At the same time, 26
percent of blacks identify their ideology as liberal, compared to the 23
percent national average. The number of blacks who identify their ideology as
conservative is higher than I expected, but
it confirms the testimonial feedback I get from black people who listen to my
show, visit my website or attend my speeches.

On issue after issue, the

Excerpt: The French delegation in Switzerland
felt the outline for a nuclear deal with Iran
was “not solid enough,” and wanted to improve upon the deal before signing off
on the accord, French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius told Europe
1 radio on Friday.
However, the Iranian delegation threatened at the last minute to leave the
talks entirely, which persuaded the
American delegation to capitulate to the demands of the Ayatollah’s regime,
Fabius revealed. The French Foreign Minister said he wanted a strong,
comprehensive deal that dissuades “other countries in the Gulf such as Saudi Arabia
from embarking on nuclear proliferation.”
Hezbollah: Iran
Excerpt: A Hezbollah leader Friday hailed this week’s
tentative framework for Iran ’s
nuclear weapons program as a major win for the Islamic republic. Hezbollah MP
Nawar Sahli praised the agreement as an Iranian “victory” in his remarks, the Lebanon
Daily Star reported Saturday. Hezbollah is a Shia Islamist group in Lebanon closely linked with Tehran and its clerics of the same faith.
Hundreds protest
Islamic law in Australia
Excerpt: Protesters waving Australian flags and carrying
signs such as "Yes Australia .
No Sharia" rallied around the country on Saturday in events organisers
said were against Islamic extremism. The "Reclaim Australia" events
drew hundreds of supporters but also triggered counter-rallies from other
groups who criticised them as racist and called for greater tolerance.
"We are pro-Australian values and anti-extreme Islam,
but we're not anti-Muslim," Reclaim Australia spokeswoman Catherine
Brennan told AFP, adding there was no racism behind the rallies, which she said
had attracted people from diverse backgrounds. (Shari'a Law allows men to have
four wives and to beat them, allows slavery, condemns gays and apostates who
leave Islam to death, calls for the stoning of women accused of adultery, and
makes a woman's or an infidel's testimony only worth half of that of a male
Muslim. And these racists are against such reasonable things? ~Bob)

mastermind, Mohamed Mohamud, a former teacher at a Garissa madrasa, is still on
the run. Kenya

Excerpt: The gunmen, who killed 147 people in Kenya 's worst
terrorist attack since 1998, ordered people to recite verses from the Koran at
gunpoint to avoid being shot. They also told women they were safe before
gunning them down. The men shouted 'God is great' as they shot and killed the
unarmed civilians. Reuben Mwavita saw three female students murdered in front
of him. He said the gunmen forced them onto their knees and started to
interrogate them. He said: 'The mistake
they made was to say "Jesus, please save us", because that is when
they were immediately shot.'
Laughing Somali
gunmen taunted victims in university massacre. By Adow Jubat
Excerpt: survivors of the Kenya university massacre described
how laughing gunmen taunted their victims amid scenes of total carnage. Salias
Omosa, an 20-year-old education student, said the victims were woken up at
gunpoint in Thursday's pre-dawn attack, and Muslims and non-Muslims picked out
by "how they were dressed". "'We don't fear death, this will be
a good Easter holiday for us,' the attackers were shouting in Swahili, then
shooting their guns," Omosa recounted, still trembling with terror and
sitting in the refuge of a military camp.
Danish professor: Jihadis are just following the example of Muhammad. By Nicolai Sennels
Excerpt: For three years, a Danish linguist, Tina Magaard,
analyzed the basic texts of ten religions. Her conclusion is
that the texts of Islam stand out by encouraging terrorism and violence more
than those of other religions. Now Tina Magaard speaks out again. Translated by
Nicolai Sennels, via 10News.dk: Tina
Magaard has great knowledge about
Islam, both personally and academically. She believes that Danish experts
in Islam fail to disclose what is in Islam’s holy scriptures, and the extent to
which extremism draws its ammunition from these scriptures.… She studied Arabic
and read both the Qur’an and the hadiths. Here she recognized many of the
repressive tendencies she had experienced [in her travels in Muslim countries].
Dutch researcher:
“The better integrated, the higher the risk of radicalization.” By Nicolai
Sennels
Excerpt: Muslims are not radicalized by poverty, racism or
lack of integration. Muslims are radicalized by Islam. The fact is that Islam
is the only religion where its followers become more violent the
more they follow their religion.
Imam of the grand mosque in
Excerpt: “Our war with Iran , say that out loud, is a war
between Sunnis and Shiites,” Sunni preacher Abdul Rahman al-Sudais says in the
nearly seven-minute clip. “Our war with Iran ...is truly sectarian. If it
was not sectarian, we will make it sectarian... The Jews and cross” – meaning
Christians – “I swear by Allah that they will have their days...The prophet
said that Rome
will be conquered ...Our disagreement with Rafidha” – another word for Shiites
– “will not be removed, nor our suicide to fight them... as long as they are on
the face of the earth....” While cursing Jews is part of Friday prayers
and speeches in many parts of the Islamic world, most Muslim imams avoid calling for all-out war with Shiites and
Christians.
Worth Sharing: Moderate Muslims? (Je Suis Charlie!)
The Saker interviews
Sheikh Imran Hosein
I don't know what motivated the Saker to do this interview
with a renowned Muslim scholar and I didn't listen to the whole thing, but one
of the first issues the Imam takes up is the distinction between Christians who
ally with the Jews and those who do not. He unequivocally says that, according
to the Koran, any Muslim who befriends Christians who are friends with
the Jews "has left the Muslim world and can no longer
consider himself a Muslim." Further, he states that more and
more Muslims are going to come around to this view. In view of the
wholesale Muslim migration foisted on the West from the top down, The Western
world is already being thrown back to the Third Reich, but barring an
unforeseen geopolitical tectonic plate shift, this emerging Muslim
doctrine has the potential to set the west up for another
holocaust. Relations between Muslims and non-Muslims are already shaky at best,
but if what this Imam says really is the future of Islam, Europe will
certainly face unimaginable woes and hardships because the
"Christian" leaders who are working toward a theological conciliation
among world religions will almost certainly be seduced by this absurd and
racist teaching. After all, such "Christian" leaders are already weak
in their faith and all it will take is a shove for them to land in an
anti-Semitic form of apostasy. The future would be unimaginable. Unfortunately,
in the broadest of outlines, this matches with what is prophesied. --Don
