The Issue Largely Ignored By Both Left And Right

(Click directly on the image below to enlarge it)



Part One of the video footage:



Additional video forthcoming.

Personally, I am particularly looking forward to the video of the speech by Simon Deng, whose speech was so riveting that I could barely take notes. Until the video is available, please read this 2005 speech by Simon Deng so as to get an idea of what he had to say.

Read a little bit about my time at FDI below the fold....
--------
Last Friday, February 19, 2010, I managed to attend the launch of the Freedom Defense Initiative at CPAC 2010, but find that I don't have time to do my own write-up, other than to say that I managed to run into and converse with Culturist John. Later in the day, I sat down over lunch for a few minutes with Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer before having to head for home to help TMW tend to Mr. AOW, who was not having a good day. TMW was going to attend the event with me, but decided to stay home with Mr. AOW. And it's a good thing she did!

This article at NewsReal (via this posting at Jihad Watch) provides a good summary of the event.

Additional reading on the Freedom Defense Initiative

And Atlas Shrugs has lots of photos.

Of course, my having a day out on Friday, followed one day later by another day out (this second time with both Mr. AOW and TMW to visit the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History, where we explored this exhibit of blue diamonds), means that I have some catch-up to do here at home and with grading papers. Blogging and making blog rounds will be catch-as-catch-can for a few days.

Stop Making Excuses For Terror


Please read this moving and important essay, "Daniel Pearl and the Normalization of Evil: When will our luminaries stop making excuses for terror?" by Judea Pearl, the father of Daniel Pearl, who was beheaded seven years ago on February 1.

Steven Emerson's suggestions for action are below the fold.

Let Bill Moyers know that his purported "evenhandedness" is tantamount to justifying the same terrorism that robbed Daniel Pearl of his life. (email for Moyers below).

Let Jimmy Carter know that his rationalization of Hamas' actions is no different than defending Nazism (email for Carter below).

Let the New York Times know that its inability to tell the difference between Hamas butchery and the State of Israel is the equivalent of saying that Daniel Pearl's executioners were blameless (email for the Times below).

Let the Chancellor of UCLA know that the American public will not support taxpayers' money going to campus-sponsored Hamas hate fests. (email below)

Let the White House, the U.S. Senate and Congress know that the leaders of radical American Islamic groups such as the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) and the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC) are not welcome in the White House or Congress and should not be legitimized by the FBI, Department of Justice, Department of Homeland Security because they refuse to condemn Hamas and Hezbollah by name.
Email addresses to copy and paste into your compose-mail page for those listed above:

Bill Moyers - moyersonpbs@thirteen.org

President Jimmy Carter - carterweb@emory.edu

UCLA Chancellor Gene Block - chancellor@ucla.edu

William Keller, New York Times Executive Editor - executive-editor@nytimes.com

Contact the President: White House contact form - CLICK HERE TO ACCESS

Is it an exercise in futility to contact the above? Maybe. But even so, good citizens make their voices known!

Note: Debbie Schlussel makes these points about Judea Pearl's apparent lack of understanding as to the nature of the ideology behind his son's murder. Agree or disagree with Ms. Schlussel, her commentary is insightful reading, filled with some disturbing facts about Judea Pearl.

What Is GWB Thinking Of?

Today, President Bush is scheduled to speak at the Washington D.C. Islamic Center, which has ties to Wahhabism. Here, at Vigilant Freedom/910 Blog, in "Sir, Have You No Shame?" is what Baron Bodissey of Gates of Vienna had to say about what our President is doing today (emphases mine):
President Bush has been seduced by the dark side of the Force.

That’s the only explanation I can think of.

He will speak tomorrow at the Washington Islamic Center, the most prominent Saudi-funded mosque in Washington DC. Not to mince words, it’s a Wahhabist mosque.

The speech is at 11:30 AM, so time is short.

Dymphna [also of Gates of Vienna] posted on this topic earlier this afternoon, in an
open letter to the President. [Read it!]

Bloggers: we need to blog on this, and have our readers light up the phones at the White House tonight and tomorrow.

Readers: see the contact info at the bottom of this post. The important phone numbers are 202-456-1414 (voice) and 202-456-2461 (fax).

The Administration claims to want to shut down terrorist groups. The groups represented at the President’s speech include CAIR, MPAC, ISNA, etc., which are known cover groups and fronts for the architects and funding sources of the Muslim Brotherhood and related Islamic terror groups. The President must state his firm commitment to shutting down these terror groups.

The President must make the point that Islam as it is practiced by many of these groups is not a religion, but a political ideology which seeks to dominate the rest of us by force.

The groups invited to and/or sponsoring this event must disavow Hamas, Hizbullah, etc. specifically and by name and not just utter generalized mealy-mouthed condemnations of “all kinds of terrorism”. Those who will not join in such a denunciation are de facto apologists and supporters of the jihad groups.

The leaders of these groups have not addressed the criminal and immoral attacks on civilians by Islamic suicide bombers and terrorists. This must change. They must publicly and clearly denounce these attacks as unacceptable and un-Islamic.

Any effort to implement the above changes is routinely denounced as “racism” and “Islamophobia”. The President must make clear that opposing political Islam is not any of these things; it is an honorable, patriotic, and morally justified enterprise in defense of human liberty.

These groups must be compelled to acknowledge that extremist and violent Islam is a real, widespread, and serious problem, and not just a figment of the “infidel” imagination. They must be seen publicly to join in the movement to denounce and resist it.

The Islamic groups which encourage their followers not to cooperate with the police, the FBI, and other law-enforcement agencies are not just being unhelpful, they are breaking the law.

The groups involved in this event have routinely denounced the “Zionist lobby”. It should be stated explicitly that this is an unacceptable attack on the pluralism of American society.

The focus on Israel as the putative cause of all Islamic violence must stop.

We call on President Bush to state publicly and forcefully that the Muslim Brotherhood, which is behind many of these “charities” and lobbying groups, is a dangerous, violent, and subversive entity which threatens the security of the United States and the entire Western world. It must be delegitimized and put beyond the pale of acceptable social action.

Contact info:

George W. Bush
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Ave. N.W.
Washington D.C. 20500

voice: 202-456-1414
fax: 202-456-2461
e-mail: president@whitehouse.gov

Get on it, folks! Let the President know that his dhimmitude is unacceptable.

Addendum: HERE is the speech, "President Bush Rededicates the Islamic Center of Washington."
