More of what THEY say...

You’ve heard of Yusuf al-Qaradawi? I’ve told you about him before, but you may have repressed that, LOL. Not surprising, actually, ‘cause he’s not a very pleasant character.

The Qur'an should be the highest authority in America.' –Omar Ahmed, CAIR (July 4, 1998) This is the final in a series which, it seems, has gone over like the proverbial lead balloon, LOL.

Here’s what THEY say...Part IV

As is my wont on occasion, LOL, in today’s post I shall merely respond to comments in order to clarify a few misunderstandings. The first one is from Justi, but before I give you her comment, I’ll show you what apparently prompted it. I had written that “ Jews believe in the God of Abraham,... Sign in to see full entry.

The Qur'an should be the highest authority in America.' –Omar Ahmed, CAIR (July 4, 1998) Here’s part 3 three of this series.

Now the Saudis are getting into the act...

‘Saudi Arabia urges international action in Syria, saying regime there "has crossed all the lines with its tyranny."’ (CNN,Sept 1, 2013) Picking up on the W.H Amateur’s ‘Red Line’ business, the Saudis are upping the ante and claim that ‘ all the lines’ have been crossed, presumably the ones they...

A few words about Syria...

You may or may not have seen the horrific footage of men, women and children dying in the street, clearly affected by something, something chemical...And it is impossible not to feel revulsion at the perpetrators. And, in the grip of that revulsion, many in the West are clamoring for retribution.... Sign in to see full entry.
