Impeachment And Recall Are Signs of Hope

Cross-posted from Dakota Lifestyle:  Beyond the Weather
The recent impeachment of former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich brought to mind some early North Dakota history.   The first governor ever to be recalled in the United States was Lynn Frazier, who served as governor of North Dakota from around 1917 to 1921. 
Politics in those days were messy.  Farmers [...]

The Super Bowl, is it about the game, or the circus?

As each year goes by I am more amazed at how the Super Bowl hasturned into more and more of a complete A. C. Circus. Yeah, I guess bynow I should no better, advertising, the media, and the frenzy typeatmosphere it creates draws more people to the big game, but I am oldschool. I actually [...]

Britain Mandates New Language

Not wanting to be possessive, Britain has decided  to eliminate the apostrophe in their English language. See the US News & World Report article here.

“Apostrophes denote possessions that are no longer accurate, and are not needed,” he said. “More importantly, they confuse people. If I want to go to a restaurant, I don’t [...]

Its Shari’ah, Stupid #25

This series of posts quoting various Islamic Jurists’ Fiqh on offensive Jihad is derived from FOMI’s Offensive Jihad Thread, which I saved prior to the forum’s censorship by the Swedish government.  The Offensive Jihad Thread is preserved in FOMIJihad.chm.
Sharia: the path to the living waters;  threatening to drown the world in blood. It is Islamic [...]

Radicalization

Now comes another symposium at Front Page Magazine wherein Brigitte Gabriel and several shrinks debate the roots of ‘radicalization’.  After presenting several critical ayat which form the foundation of Jihad, Brigitte Gabriel gives us this neat summary.
Going forward we must realize that the portent behind the terrorist attacks is the purest form of what the Prophet [...]

Highlights ot the Obama Kick Back Bill

Orlando over at Fort Hard Knox has a post about the Porkulus (Stimulus) Bill which I have affectionately called the “Obama Kick Back Bill”.  It is not a stimulus bill at all, it is a way to pay back his voters. As we in Illinois call it “The Chicago Way”.   Just ask Blogojevich about it, [...]

Today, I was caught quite by surprise to learn at the last minute that the Muslim Student Union was having another anti-Israel rally at UC-Irvine. In fact, I just happened to read an e-mail that Imam Amir Abdel Malik Ali was speaking at the flag poles at 12 [...]

Ice Cream & The Election

You may have seen this before, but it is a good thought for how the last election played out . . .
Who worries about “the cow” when it is all about the “Ice Cream? The most eye-opening civics lesson I ever had was while teaching third grade this year.
 
The presidential election was heating up and [...]

A Call 2 Action - Response Required!

Webster defines complacency as:
“self-satisfaction especially when accompanied by unawareness of actual dangers or deficiencies.”
This week, the Republican minority of the House of Representatives chose to band together and rise up against the socialist agenda of the liberal Democratic majority. Ultimately, they were defeated, but the headline was not “Democrats Pass Economic Stimulus Bill In The [...]

Its Shari’ah, Stupid #24

In this twenty-fourth installment of Offensive Jihad in Fiqh, we turn to another modern authority.

The Muslim Brotherhood founder Hasan al-Banna, wrote in his text Jihad to offensive jihad decreed by Muhammad, and that the edict is still legitimate.

The verses of the Qur’an and the Sunnah […] summon people in general […] to jihad, to warfare, [...]

Stimulating hypocrisy

Does everyone remember the outrage over the $1.2 million that Merrill Lynch spent to upgrade its executive offices? How about the outrage over that $50 million corporate jet for CITI? You know, the one — the one that CITI had ordered quite some time back, and ended up canceling the order because they got money [...]

The Hypocrisy of Maxine Waters

There are few people in Congress more odious than Maxine Waters (D-CA). A member of the Congressional Black Caucus, Waters, who represents a district on the outskirts of LA, specializes in racial politics. One of her favorite issues is racial profiling, yet she also paints herself as a drug warrior trying to protect the inner [...]

Barney Frank
Not surprisingly, Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA) is back in the spotlight. This time, the chair of the Financial Services Committee is attracting attention for interceding with the Treasury Department and arranging 12 million dollars in Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) funds to be directed to OneUnited Bank of Massachusetts-even though the [...]

Christmas Responses Taken To Extremes

At one point in its history, one could argue that the West was too sure of itself as the foremost of civilizations. However, such is no longer the case today.
In theory, pluralists and multiculturalists contend that no way of life or culture is better than any other. Thus, one would think that Western and American [...]

O Say Can You See…

“Daddy, is Barack Obama our President? Does he believe in Jesus? What does he mean by change? Does that mean we will have to change?”
These are the words of an 8 year old girl from Texas…my 8 year old girl. Simple questions to a difficult situation. From her perspective, she sees a [...]

Its Shari’ah, Stupid #23

In this twenty-third installment of Offensive Jihad in Fiqh, we turn to another modern authority.

Abdullah Yusuf Azzam issued his fatwah Defense of the Muslim Lands, the First Obligation after Faith (1979) after the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. Fatwahn supported by Saudi Arabia’s Grand Mufti, Abd al-Aziz Bin Bazz. Azzam legitimize both defensive and offensive jihad.

Its Shari’ah, Stupid #20

We continue exploration of modern Fiqh in this twenty-second episode.

Another contemporary jihad Evangelist is Yusuf al-Qaradawi (b. 1926), a member of the Muslim Brothers (the world’s first terrorist organization), and leader of the European Council for Fatwa and Research. Al-Qaradawi is counted as one of the most influential Muslim authorities. He [...]

Stimulus

The Wall Street Journal has HR1 of ‘09 in the form of a 647 pg. pdf file. Other than the huge numbers, it appears to be mainly gobbldygook. There can be little doubt that a great deal of money will be wasted without lasting good effect.
An email from Freedom Works asserts that:
This week both [...]
