Hey! Mind your own business. Mocking Obama's agenda is our job
An American who left the United States to join an Al Qaeda-linked group in Somalia is strongly condemning President Obama's efforts to seek "a new beginning" with the Muslim world, mocking Obama's "magic of charisma" and warning of more attacks against U.S. interests."Despite the fact that you have been ... forced [by Muslim fighters] to at least pretend to extend your hand in peace to the Muslims, we cannot and shall not extend our hands," said the man in the audiotape, identified by the Washington-based Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) as Abu Mansour al-Amriki. "Rather, we shall extend to you our swords, until you leave our lands."
The 20-minute audiotape, called "The Beginning of the End," was posted Thursday on several jihadist web sites as a direct response to Obama's much-publicized speech in Cairo on June 4, when he promised "a new beginning between the United States and Muslims around the world."
"Let this not come as a surprise to those who are mesmerized by Obama's speech in Cairo, our positions ... have not changed in the least," al-Amriki said, in the transcription provided by MEMRI. "If we study his words carefully, we can note very clearly that this new beginning is still heavily based upon American interests ... [Obama spoke] not because he loves the Muslims he lived with in Indonesia, as a boy, but rather, it is because the only way to defeat the Muslims is by distracting them with this temporary life."
As Obama runs around the world on his apology tours, as he tries to reach out to blood thirsty enemies - while simultaneously dissing our allies - it is quite apparent that he is wasting his time, he is being played, and he is turning American power back into the paper tiger version Bin Laden scoffed at back in the 90's. And these groups will still hate the United States for being the greatest nation ever, no matter how much Obama reaches out and apologises.

Grasshopper, you need to reflect how the mainstream media will spin this (if they'll reply at all):
FUTURE NY TIMES HEADER: "American who joined Al-Quaeda was a know listener to the Rush Limbaugh show regularly, read "National Review," was pro-life and a gun fanatic."
Once you become one with the mainstream media (then take a bath to wash the stink off afterwords) you will know what they will say.

In Obama's "Apology to apologize for the improper apologies where my tone was not really apologetic in a humble apologetic fashion" tour.
...said the man in the audiotape, identified by the Washington-based Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) as Abu Mansour al-Amriki. "Rather, we shall extend to you our swords, until you leave our lands."
"And while you extend your swords we'll extend to you our rifles, mortars, fighter jets and everything else we can throw at you. In other words, never bring a sword to a gunfight."

AQ made it clear way before Obama was elected that it didn't matter what he did or said.
The outreach was made to create even more division in that part of the world between these guys and those who would be considered "moderate".
It only helps Obama when he makes an honest effort to create inroads with the muslim world and at the same time these guys, who are the fringe, spew the same nonsense.
Posted by D-Vega
2009-07-10 11:50:18
That is not true. AQ made up only 6% of the insurgent attacks in Iraq.
Iraq achieve progress when the same guys who were fighting us (tribal leaders & Baathists) switched sides and began working with us. Their version of "moderates" changed the game, and in turn fought against the die-hard extremists.
That is also proof positive that outreach works.

Bit confused here so maybe you can help out. In one post you say he is talking to Muslims in general. AQ are Muslims so he was generally talking to THEM! However because you say he is not talking to them so that would mean they are not Muslim. So who was he talking to?

I was mistaken. The invasion was directed against the people who sided with Al-Qaeda. However, as you stated, Al-Qaeda assisted in the fight against us.
However, your statement is not quite true. The invasion was never directed at the general Iraq population.
Iraq achieve progress when the same guys who were fighting us (tribal leaders & Baathists) switched sides and began working with us. Their version of "moderates" changed the game, and in turn fought against the die-hard extremists.
Who did that? George Bush
Who criticized Bush for that move? You and the rest of the left.

Even if this was a war directed against Al-Qaeda alone, the point of this thread is that Al-Qaeda members are rejecting Obama's outreach. Contrary to Vega's unicorn/rainbow/moonbeam view of the world, Obama's outreach ISN'T working. Obama took one of the most passive courses and Al-Qaeda has rejected that offer.

There is not a single mainstream Islamic philosophy that does not interpret 'jihad' as open hostility to the unbelievers.
Obama's apology is a (pathetically, disastrously failed) attempt at appeasing Islamic terrorism and totalitarianism. America, and all of those who love freedom, have nothing to apologize to that small minority of Muslims that oppose terrorism - despite not knowing or not being willing to admit that it stems from the most basic, clear and mainstream interpretations of Islam, not from perversions of it.
(Of course, a slightly more reasonable assessment would be that the majority of Islam is not openly hostile to the West because it doesn't need to. There are enough that to that job for them. Sort of how not every American has to be a soldier nor support them for the frontier to have some semblance of protection.)
PS: when they say "get off our lands", they don't mean the Middle East; since Islam splits the world in Islamic conquered territories and lands where war must be made to the infidel, they mean the usual three choices given to all infidels: converted, enslaved, dead. They want us off the planet.

Oh. Is that why he went to Cairo, Egypt - one of the many states that have minimal legal rights for women, that kill gays, that are arming terrorist, that helped create and finance the monstrous death cult of Palestine, etc. etc. etc.
Yes. He went and apologized to this always-touted, never-seen "majority" of muslims who don't want to fight us by going straight into the lion's den of American hatred, and talking to the "moderate" islamic leaders which are distinct from "extremist" moderate islamists in that they deign to smile at our faces, and only plot our death when they think we aren't looking (rather than doing it in broad daylight, as it were).
Your argument has the consistency of tissue in the ocean.
But then, we're avoiding the elephant in the room. Why did Obama need to apologize to the muslims that don't want us dead, when we want to stop the "misinterpreters" (as if, read above, terrorism is mainstream) of Islam?

The text at the top of this page is very clear. You're free to ignore the facts in this case but your reputation as an idiot will remain. The voice in the audio tape specifically said "Muslims," not Al-Qaeda.
Too bad you choose to ignore reality.

Did not say that. Ya might want to read what I wrote. And you forget that Dems created the KKK members of the KKK are active liberal democrats. After all your Supreme Court justice just admitted to hatching a scheme to limit “those kinds of people”. But a liberal as a christen is a bit of a stretch. Ya haft to have a conscience and a sense of hypocrisy to be a christen and we know you have neither.

If you had grasped it you would have chosen a less piss-poor analogy than the KKK. You should probably try researching a little bit about Christianity before claiming the KKK is a Christian organization.

Not out loud. But what else to make of these statements...
"But then you are a liberal and there is no difference between terrorists and christens."
As a liberal you posit that I think all Christians are terrorists. And yet I know there are plenty of liberal Christians who are not terrorists. Your statement is false.
"But a liberal as a christen is a bit of a stretch. Ya haft to have a conscience and a sense of hypocrisy to be a christen"...
Again, a false statement. Many liberal Christians have consciences and are not hypocrits. They act on their beliefs.
And whether or not I am a Christian is irrelevant.

However you make the distinction with ease. I also never ask you about your religion. But enough of that the point of my post was that the KKK is a liberal organization and it has members in the senate and a Supreme Court justice on your side of the isle used her position to murder millions of unborn children because she did not want an overpopulation of those kind of people.

What distinction? You've lost me now. I was pointing out the flaw in mightysamurai's logic. That is all. I provided a similarly flawed analogy. I still think you missed my point.

And you sound like a guy who is profoundly ignorant of what he is talking about.
Seriously, RESEARCH Christianity and Islam some time.
Just because you have a conscience doesn't make you a Christian. A conscience is just an inner voice that guides your behavior toward what you view as right and away from what you view as wrong.
And repeating this won't make it true.

Even your own logic dictates that an Obama appology to Muslims is not an appology to Al Quaeda. Even if, and notice the if, you are right and that the KKK is populated by Dems, then any appology to Christians would still be an appology to the Rep. Christians. It isn't an appology to the KKK.
The logic that any appology to Muslims is an appology to Al Quaeda is flawed.

never claimed it did. However, as Al Quaeda is 100% Muslim in membership, well, you do the math.
Besides, Islam is a pagan death cult whose practitioners will all end up in Hell. An Inconvenient Truth.

It doesn't matter if Muslims accept or reject Al-Qaeda. It doesn't matter if Al-Qaeda is really comprised only of Muslims. The point made here (which is too intelligent for you to understand) is that Al-Qaeda is using the EXCUSE of Obama's apology to continue their violence.
Unfortunately, idiots like you will think that the more we apologize, the more likely evil people will want to be friends with us. We warned you, and warned you, and warned you that this would not happen.
- Obama can apologize 100 more times and Al-Qaeda will still find excuses to attack us.
- Obama can give Al-Qaeda money to stop and Al-Qaeda will demand more money.
- Obama can meet with bin Laden, bow down and kiss his feet. Bin Laden will only demand more and still claim we're evil.
- You lefties claimed that the world would love us if Obama won the presidency but the evidence is proving otherwise.
- You were fools to think that the stimulus would work.
- You were fools to think that Obama would end Iraq.
- You were fools to think that the world would love us if Obama reached out to them.
Need I say more?
You can try to use the KKK as an argument but you end up looking stupid.
Al-Qaeda will always find an excuse to attack us like the article in this thread. Apologies mean nothing if your opponent has no intention of forgiveness and reconciliation.
Unfortunately, that **EXTREMELY** simply concept soared over your head.
You sound like a Muslim argueing that Al Qaeda is not Muslim....more backtracking.

Then answer these very simple questions:

2) If Obama didn't apologize to Al-Qaeda then why was the apology needed? Why do we need to apologize to peaceful Muslims? What did we do to them to warrant an apology?
3) Name the Muslim organizations that openly oppose Al-Qaeda based upon the Koran.
These are very simple questions. Do you have the guts to answer, rmiller?

Actually, rmiller, your argument is seriously flawed.
If the argument were hypothetically true, would Obama apologize to Christians/KKK or would Obama use law enforcement to round up those who have committed the violence and put them on trial?
How many times has Obama apologized to pro-life groups? For your flawed argument to work Obama should apologize to every pro-life group with the hope that the extreme fringe would stop killing abortion doctors. What you're saying is that if Obama apologized earlier, Tillman would never have murdered and his killer awaiting his trial in a jail cell.

"Christians do it too!" + "Hitler was a right-winger, and so are today's conservatives, so they are like Hitler!"
Plus, "it was all an intentionally flawed metaphor" so we can't call you on the slippage of your mask.
To address your "logic", such as it is: if Al Qa'ida did not represent mainstream Islamic ideology and theology, there would be no need to apologize to a mass of muslims who - only for sake of argument - do not want us all killed, enslaved or converted.
Elephant in the room, again: if you want to insist arguing that Obama's apology was not directed at terrorist groups, which represent mainstream islamic theology, then why did Obama apologize to muslims in the first place?

'Frankly I had thought that at the time Roe was decided, there was concern about population growth and particularly growth in populations that we don't want to have too many of"
Projection? We know it is. Hitler was a leftists. He believed in extermination of the Jews. Liberals believe in extermination of the African American. The right from Lincoln on down believe in freedom for all. We are not the architects of the KKK. The left has the hate market all to themselves. If you follow your ideology to conclusion it leads to one conclusion and one only. Hitler was just not as self-loathing as liberals are. He was more direct.

Wrong false premise about the KKK, The are a terrorist group, yes. But, they do NOT use the Bible to justify their actions, they do not claim to be representives of god, and they do not have the support of any part of the church. Thus they are not a Christian group. Some are worshipping Christians, they do not represent any part of the religion.

Have to admit....it was your response that got me to thinking.
I never argued that the KKK represents Christians. I think you know that. I used it as a false premise.
"Thus they are not a Christian group. Some are worshipping Christians, they do not represent any part of the religion."
I think it also is true that there are many Muslims who would make the same arguement.
I do think that the way Mr. Obama phrased his speech in Cairo was subtle. I think it created some political space for Muslims to express their disagreement with those extremists with whom they disagree, and that we would support them.
I don't see anything wrong with that. Nor did I ever hear Pres. Obama appologize to Muslims. I was just using the terms presented.
I don't think it does our foreign policy any good to equate the Muslim religion with Al Quaeda. It gives away the game before it is played.

There are over 1 billion muslims in the world.
AQ may think they speak for all muslims, but they do not. That's what you guys are missing.
You would have to find where exactly I said increased attacks on AQ were bad because they created more terrorists.
What you would find is that I've always said we should have stepped up attacks in Pak/Afghan. That we should violate Pak territory if we had to. That drone strikes were good. All that when Bush was still President.
What I disagreed with is pre-emptively invading and rebuilding a middle-eastern country that had nothing to do with 9/11 (Iraq).

One doesn't need guts to answer these questions.
1) Yes
2) Those are 3 Qustions...
a..an appology wasn't needed, nor was one given. If we are talking about the Cairo speach, when I listened to it, I heard no appology. I could be wrong, and am willing to hear my mistake.
b...we don't. I didn't hear that...still, same as above.
c...again, the same.
However, I think that we do have some fencemending to engage in. Our history in the middle east is less than stellar. And I am not talking about Israel. The US has been less than encouraging democratic movements in the mid east.
And I know that opens up the whole Iran question now. And how we should be more robust in our encouragement. And I have been argueing caution.
Admittedly, I can see where that would be seen as contradictory....and I have no answer, at least in blog legnth.
