			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>Islam is not a religion nor is it a cult. It is a complete system. Islam has religious, legal, political, economic and military components. The religious component is a beard for all the other components. Islamization occurs when there are sufficient Muslims in a country to agitate for their so-called &#8220;religious rights.</p>
<p>When politically correct and culturally diverse societies agree to &#8220;the reasonable&#8221; Muslim demands for their &#8220;religious rights,&#8221; they also get the other components under the table. Here&#8217;s how it works &#8212; percentages source CIA: The World Fact Book (2007).</p>
<p>As long as the Muslim population remains around 1% of any given country they will be regarded as a peace-loving minority and not as a threat to anyone. In fact, they may be featured in articles and films, stereotyped for their colorful uniqueness: United States- Muslim 1.0%, Australia- Muslim 1.5%, Canada- Muslim 1.9%, Italy- Muslim 1.5%</p>
<p>At 2% and 3% they begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs: Denmark &#8212; Muslim 2%, Germany &#8212; Muslim 3.7%, United Kingdom &#8212; Muslim 2.7%, Spain &#8212; Muslim 4%, Thailand &#8212; Muslim 4.6%</p>
<p>From 5% on they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population. They will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature it on their shelves &#8212; along with threats for failure to comply. (United States). France &#8212; Muslim 8%, Philippines &#8212; Muslim 5%, Sweden &#8212; Muslim 5% Switzerland &#8212; Muslim 4.3%, The Netherlands &#8212; Muslim 5.5%, Trinidad &amp; Tobago &#8212; Muslim 5.8%</p>
<p>At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islam is not to convert the world but to establish Sharia law over the entire world.</p>
<p>When Muslims reach 10% of the population, they will increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions (Paris &#8212; car-burnings). Any non-Muslim action that offends Islam will result in uprisings and threats (Amsterdam &#8212; Mohammed cartoons). India &#8212; Muslim 13.4%, Israel &#8212; Muslim 16%, Kenya &#8212; Muslim 10%</p>
<p>After reaching 20% expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings and church and synagogue burning: Ethiopia &#8212; Muslim 32.8%</p>
<p>From 60% you may expect unfettered persecution of non-believers and other religions, sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon and Jizya, the tax placed on infidels:<br />
Albania &#8212; Muslim 70%, Malaysia-Muslim 60.4%, Sudan-Muslim 70%, Egypt-Muslim 90%, Gaza- Muslim 98.7%, Indonesia-Muslim 86.1%, Iran-Muslim 98%, Jordan-Muslim 92%, Pakistan-Muslim 97%, UAE-Muslim 96%</p>
<p>100% will usher in the peace of &#8220;Dar-es-Salaam&#8221;-the Islamic House of Peace-there&#8217;s supposed to be peace because everybody is a Muslim:,Afghanistan- Muslim 100%,Saudi Arabia- Muslim 100%,Somalia 100%</p>
<p>It is good to remember that in many countries, such as France, the Muslim populations are centered around ghettos based on their ethnicity. Muslims do not integrate into the community at large. Therefore, they exercise more power than their national average would indicate. As goes Europe so goes the United States.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:center;line-height:normal;" align="center">What would you do if your child was forced to attend a class on Islam without your consent in a Public School? This is the same public school system who says your child can not be forced to pray. It is also the same public school system that your tax dollars fund to be able to give YOUR children a quality unbiased education. The same public school system that says you can not force a child to participate in any religion. Well it happened this week in Central Florida. The Central Florida chapter of the United American Committee uncovered this plot to educate your children with the religion of Islam and exposed it.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:center;line-height:normal;" align="center">

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:center;line-height:normal;" align="center">The Central Florida Chapter of the United American Committee then contacted WFTV Channel 9 news in Orlando to expose a cultural Jihad at a local school. This class was called family dynamics and was supposed to have nothing to do with religion but ISLAM turned it into a religious discussion and these students had no choice to stay or go. Please watch the video then go to the following link and Vote NO to show your support for these parents and the United American Committee&#8217;s fight http://www.wftv.com/9wantstoknow/index.html</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;" align="center"><b><u><span style="font-size:18pt;line-height:115%;">After Action Report</span></u></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;" align="center">&nbsp;</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;" align="center"><b><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;">The Central Florida chapter of the United American Committee showed up for an informational tabling yesterday at the University of Central Florida just like any other event. They never expected to have the amount of action that would follow through the day. This time Alan and Dan were accompanied by Rick and David. Rick and David contacted us about interest in the UAC and what they could do to help. They wanted to show their love for their country and its constitution. They wanted to be involved somehow, they jumped right in and began lending a hand where needed. We were very thankful for the help that these two respected business men had to offer. Without them Alan and Dan would have been completely overwhelmed.</span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;" align="center"><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;"><!--[if gte vml 1]&amp;gt;   &amp;lt;![endif]--><!--[if !vml]--><br />
<!--[endif]--></span><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;"></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;" align="center"><b><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;">The Islamic students on campus converged upon the tabling and even called in reinforcements on their cell phones as can be seen on some of the pictures. One student can be seen in the above photograph taking a picture of the UAC filming and photographing the event. This brings up a serious question. Why would he want to take a picture of the people holding an educational tabling showing radical Islam? What reason could there be to photograph the members of the UAC that were doing this tabling? There was no danger and he was not the one staging the event. Makes the mind wonder what purpose is behind this.</span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;" align="center"><b><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;"><span> </span>While some people showed up to create free and open dialogue many showed up to twist the conversations into other things. </span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;" align="center"><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;"><!--[if gte vml 1]&amp;gt;   &amp;lt;![endif]--><!--[if !vml]--><br />

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;" align="center"><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;" align="center"><b><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;">The event was being photographed as well as video taped and many expressed their dislike toward it, some even asked for the cameras to be turned off. The event was photographed and on video to serve as documentation purposes but also for security as well.<span>  </span>One even wanted to make a complaint with campus police so the UAC members were kind enough to immediately flag down an officer who stated the UAC was in a public free speech area and were within their rights. Earlier the UAC had already spoken with campus police and shook their hand so they were well aware of the reasons that the UAC were there.</span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;" align="center"><b><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;">A few Muslims that boasted to be moderate expressed concerns on why we would take so much time to research the small amount in their viewpoint of Muslim extremist but not take the same time to show the moderate side of the religion. Alan extended an invitation to a representative of the Muslim Students Association to join in on the next tabling event and set up right beside them. The offer was extend to other people as well one woman stated she would like to do some research on the UAC before she decided she would do it while another stated her distaste <span> </span>of their prophet being called a pedophile and said she would not do it. </span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;" align="center"><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;"><!--[if gte vml 1]&amp;gt;   &amp;lt;![endif]--><!--[if !vml]--><br />

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;" align="center"><b><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;">The run of the mill comments on how many people the Americans murdered and the bomb being dropped on Japan was also brought up as well as Timothy McVeigh. All the comments were addressed by the UAC members in attendance and this further stone walled the students. </span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;" align="center"><b><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;">Slurs such as redneck were thrown around as well as a few hand gestures but the UAC stood their ground firm and addressed with intellect and professionalism the questions and comments coming at them. Make no mistake this was an intellectual and verbal Jihad that was taking place on this campus. </span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;" align="center"><b><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;">The pictures are posted to the Central Florida Chapter of the UAC MySpace and we are trying to get the video formatted to upload on YouTube, Viddler and GoogleVideo so that it can be easily embedded, accessible and linked to. As soon as it is formatted and uploaded we will be passing the link on and embedding it on our blogger site and MySpace. </span></b></p>

<p><i><b>posted at 6:06 pm on January 2, 2008 by Bryan on Hotair.com</b></i></p>
<p><i><b></b></i><br />
The girls were 17 and 18, named Sarah and Amina, and police in the affluent Dallas suburb of Las Colinas say he killed them in his own cab and is still armed and considered dangerous. WFAA-TV in Dallas says that police believe they have him surrounded in a residential area of Lewisville, TV. Now, the details.</p>
<p>They believe the girls’ father, Yaser Abdel Said, is in one of the houses on the block.</p>
<p>Police are also looking at the motives which may have led Said to possibly murder his two teenage daughters, one of whom called 911 from a cell phone near the spot where the girls were later found.</p>
<p>Police say they are looking into the possibility that the father was upset with his daughters dating activities.</p>
<p>“It’s something well worth looking into,” said OFC David Tull of Irving Police.</p>
<p>The man’s wife is fully cooperating with inquiries, police said.</p>
<p>Police said earlier in a statement that the man was a suspect in the girls’ deaths.</p>
<p>Atlas has one of the girls’ MySpace page linked up.</p>
<p>This is obviously the key sentence at this point:</p>
<p>Police say they are looking into the possibility that the father was upset with his daughters dating activities.</p>
<p>It could still turn out that the man is simply crazy for reasons unrelated to the girls’ dating activities, though we’ve been through enough of these stories now to have reason to think it’s not simple craziness that led to this. Sara Carter reports in the Washington Times today that police are starting to take notice of things like “sudden jihad syndrome,” which could lead them to examine similar and related pathologies. None too soon.</p>
<p>Update: Fishwrap has a round-up of blog coverage.</p>
<p>Update: From Fishrap again.</p>
<p>Sisters, Amina, 18, and Sarah, 17, were each shot to death. Friends of the girls say their father was Egyptian and critical of popular American lifestyles. “I’m definitely 100% sure that it was her dad that killed her,” said Kathleen Wong, a friend of the dead teenagers.</p>
<p>Wong says the girl’s father was verbally abusive and that Sarah, especially, lived in fear. “She’s always told me that she was always so scared of her dad,” says Wong. “Even at school if a teacher joked around like, ‘I’m gonna tell your parents about this’, she would like totally flip out and start crying like, ‘please don’t tell’.”</p>
<p>Also, Said was not in the Lewisville house that the police had surrounded earlier. So he’s still presumably on the loose. There’s video of their friend talking about the father at the link.</p>
<p>Update: A Hot Air reader found these pics of Sarah and her friend Kathleen Wong, just clowning around and being teenage girls.</p>

<p><b>Update</b>: Once again from Fishwrap, we learn what we already suspected about the Said family’s religion.</p>
<p>“Amina was very nice with everybody. She helped me in [Advanced Placement English] class,” she said. Sarah was a sophomore when she took an Algebra II class with Liz, who was a junior at the time.</p>
<p>She said the sisters, who wore typical American clothes, didn’t talk much about their family. “I didn’t know they were Muslims until she told me they were Egyptian and Muslim,” Liz said.</p>
<p>The story has more detail about the family, the killings and Amina and Sarah. The girls’ friends describe them both as very bright.</p>
<p>This may sound crass and it probably is, but it’s one thing to hear about these repulsive so-called “honor killings” occurring in Europe or even Canada, but Dallas is my hometown. I know what Texas justice is likely to do with Mr. Said if he’s caught and convicted, but that won’t bring those girls back and it won’t replace the sense of violation that I personally got from what he did. This isn’t some place far away we’re talking about, it’s Dallas, the buckle of the Bible belt and a city that’s as American as you can get. To say that this act makes me angry gets near the surface of what it makes me think about things right now.<br />

Update</b>: From Amina’s MySpace page.<br />

<p><b>Update: Gateway Pundit points to another apparent “honor killing” in Chicago. This one doesn’t involve Islam, but rather India’s disgusting caste system.</b></p>

<p><b>Posted from http://hotair.com</b></p>
<p>The eyewitness in question being her chief political advisor, who’s not entirely objective but still more credible than the government version that has her cracking her head open on the handle to her sunroof. No wonder her party is calling for an international investigation.</p>
<p>“I saw her: she looked as though she ducked in when she heard the firing. We did not realise that she had been hit by a bullet.”</p>
<p>He had looked up to see Miss Bhutto sliding back through the aperture in the roof of the white Land Cruiser. Moments later, the car was rocked by a huge explosion…</p>
<p>Dr Abbassi leant forward to see what was wrong. At first glance, she appeared to have escaped injury. Then he noticed the blood. It was seeping from a deep wound on the left side of her neck…</p>
<p>Naheeb Khan, Dr Abbassi’s wife, cradled the injured woman’s head in her lap, reaching up for her own headscarf, pulling it from her head, pressing it into the wound, trying to stem the flow. But the wound was deep and the blood seeped out, spreading down her neck and across her blue tunic.</p>
<p>The official Pakistani government line is that Miss Bhutto caught her head on the sunroof’s catch as she ducked inside, fracturing her skull. “Absolute facts &#8211; nothing but facts,” it said of its account. But Dr Abbassi leaves little room for doubt. There was too much blood, he said, and a gaping wound in her neck. She had been shot.</p>
<p>This account also rules out the Sun’s sniper scenario, of course, unless Abbassi somehow forgot to mention the hail of rifle shots piercing her body inside the car.</p>
<p>The Times of London has a photo sequence of the killers caught on film. And yes, the plural apparently is warranted. Exit question: How did they know it was the guy in the shawl who blew himself up instead of the gun?</p>
<p>Update: “Democracy,” Bhutto style — appointing a 19-year-old kid head of the party because he’s got the right last name.</p>

<p class="textBodyBlack"><span></span>RAWALPINDI, Pakistan &#8211; Pakistan opposition leader Benazir Bhutto was assassinated Thursday in a suicide bombing that also killed at least 20 others at a campaign rally.</p>
<p class="textBodyBlack"><span></span>The death of the charismatic former prime minister threw the campaign for the Jan. 8 election into chaos and created fears of mass protests and an eruption of violence across the volatile south Asian nation, which has nuclear weapons and a support base for Muslim extremists.</p>
<p class="textBodyBlack"><span></span>Pakistani troops were put on &#8220;red alert&#8221; across the country as President Pervez Musharraf blamed terrorists for Bhutto&#8217;s death and said he would redouble his efforts to fight them.</p>
<p class="textBodyBlack"><span></span>&#8220;I want to express my resolve and seek the cooperation from the entire nation and we will not rest until we eliminate these terrorists and root them out,&#8221; he said in a nationally televised speech. He announced three days of mourning for her across the country.</p>
<p class="textBodyBlack"><span></span>In the United States, President Bush demanded that those responsible be brought to justice, calling them “murderous extremists who are trying to undermine Pakistan’s democracy.”</p>
<p class="textBodyBlack"><span></span>Bhutto&#8217;s supporters erupted in anger and grief after her death, attacking police and burning tires and election campaign posters in several cities. At the hospital where she died, some smashed glass and wailed, chanting slogans against Musharraf.</p>
<p class="textBodyBlack"><span></span>&#8220;At 6:16 p.m. she expired,&#8221; said Wasif Ali Khan, a member of Bhutto&#8217;s party who was at Rawalpindi General Hospital where she was taken after the attack.</p>
<p class="textBodyBlack"><span></span>“She has been martyred,” added party official Rehman Malik. Bhutto was 54.</p>
<p class="textBodyBlack"><span></span>A party security adviser said Bhutto was shot in the neck and chest as she got into her vehicle, then the gunman blew himself up. No group has claimed responsibility.</p>
<p class="textBodyBlack"><span></span>An Associated Press reporter at the scene of the bombing could see body parts and flesh scattered at the back gate of the park where Bhutto had spoken. He counted about 20 bodies, including police, and could see many other wounded people.</p>
<p>The road outside was stained with blood. People screamed for ambulances. Others gave water to the wounded lying in the street.</p>
<p class="textBodyBlack"><span></span>The clothing of some of the victims was shredded and people put party flags over their bodies.</p>
<p class="textBodyBlack"><span></span>Security had been tight, with hundreds of riot police manning security checkpoints with metal detectors around what was Bhutto&#8217;s first campaign rally since returning from exile two months ago.</p>
<p class="textBodyBlack"><span></span>Bhutto had planned an earlier rally in the city, but Musharraf forced her to cancel it, citing security fears. In October, suicide bombers struck a parade celebrating Bhutto’s return, killing more than 140 people in the southern city of Karachi.</p>
<p class="textBodyBlack"><span></span><b><b>Musharraf mulling elections</b></b><br />
Parties across the country were stepping up campaigning for the Jan. 8 elections after a Muslim holiday late last week and a holiday on Tuesday for the birthday of Pakistan’s founder and revered first leader, Mohammad Ali Jinnah.</p>
<p class="textBodyBlack"><span></span>Musharraf convened an emergency meeting with his senior staff where they were expected to discuss whether to postpone the elections, an official at the Interior Ministry said, speaking on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the talks.</p>
<p class="textBodyBlack"> Western allies had hoped the elections will restore stability in a nuclear-armed country vital to their battle against Islamist militancy. The three-way race had pitted Bhutto against the party of another former prime minister, Nawaz Sharif, and a party that backs Musharraf, who took power in a 1999 coup.</p>
<p class="textBodyBlack"><span></span>Sharif and Bhutto had talked of an alliance, and Sharif on Thursday spoke to Bhutto supporters outside the hospital, saying: &#8220;Benazir Bhutto was also my sister, and I will be with you to take the revenge for her death. Don&#8217;t feel alone. I am with you. We will take the revenge on the rulers.&#8221;</p>
<p class="textBodyBlack"><span></span>The elections are for provincial parliaments and for a National Assembly from which a prime minister and a government will be drawn. It was not clear if they would still be held on schedule.</p>
<p class="textBodyBlack"><span></span>In recent weeks, suicide bombers have repeatedly targeted security forces in Rawalpindi, a city near the capital where Musharraf stays and the Pakistan army has its headquarters.</p>
<p class="textBodyBlack"><span></span>Before the rally, scheduled for Thursday afternoon, Bhutto had met with visiting Afghan President Hamid Karzai at the end of his two-day visit here.</p>
<p class="textBodyBlack"><span></span>“We too believe that it is essential for both of our countries, and indeed the larger Muslim world, to work to protect the interest of Islamic civilization by eliminating extremism and terrorism,” she said after their meeting.</p>
