Springtime in Islamberg

 RADICAL MUSLIM PARAMILITARY COMPOUND FLOURISHES IN UPPER NEW YORK STATE

by

Paul L. Williams, Ph.D.

B'nai Elim Director of Christian Affairs

(author of THE DAY OF ISLAM)

 
Dr. Paul Williams at the entrance of Islamberg 

          Situated within a dense forest at the foothills of the Catskill Mountains on the outskirts of Hancock, New York, Islamberg is not an ideal place for a summer vacation unless, of course, you are

an exponent of the Jihad or a fan of Osama bin Laden.    The 70 acre complex is surrounded with “No trespassing” signs; the rocky terrain is infested with rattlesnakes; and the woods are home to black bears, coyotes, wolves, and a few bobcats.

The entrance to the community is at the bottom of a very steep hill that is difficult to navigate even on a bright sunny day in May. The road, dubbed Muslim Lane, is unpaved and marred by deep crevices that have been created by torrential downpours. On a wintry day, few, save those with all terrain vehicles, could venture forth from the remote encampment.

A sentry post has been established at the base of the hill.  

The sentry, at the time of this visit, is an African American dressed in Islamic garb - - a skull cap, a prayer shawl, and a loose fitting shalwat kameez. He instructs us to turn around and leave. “Our community is not open to visitors,” he says.  

Behind the sentry and across a small stream stand dozens of inhabitants of the compound - - the men wearing skull caps and loose fitting tunics, the women in full burqa. They appear ready to deal with any unauthorized intruders.

The hillside is blighted by rusty trailers that appear to be without power or running water and a number of outhouses. The scent of raw sewage is in the air.

The place is even off limits to the local undertaker who says that he has delivered bodies to the complex but has never been granted entrance. “They come and take the bodies from my hearse. They won’t allow me to get past the sentry post. They say that they want to prepare the bodies for burial. But I never get the bodies back. I don’t know what’s going on there but I don’t think it’s legal.”

On the other side of the hill where few dare to go is a tiny village replete with a make-shift learning center (dubbed the “International Quranic Open University”); a trailer converted into a Laundromat; a small, green community center; a small and rather squalid grocery store; a newly constructed majid; over forty clapboard homes; and scores of additional trailers.

Paintball and Islamic Training in the USA

America's Truth Forum's Jeff Epstein appeared recently on The 700 Club to discuss how the seemingly innocuous sport of paintball is being used by homegrown - and sometimes foreign - jihadis to practice their terror assaults on US targets.

 


 

NEVER AGAIN means NEVER AGAIN!

The audio link below will take you to a rare recording of the "Hatikva " from 62 years ago. It is, for many, profoundly moving. 

It was recorded by a British reporter in April 1945 in Bergen-Belsen when the British army liberated the few thousand survivors in the concentration camp, half of whom were Jewish, and most of them at the low ebb of their strength. 

The British priest organized prayers for Kabbalat Shabbat for the Jews, it was the first time after 6 years of war and after more than 10 years of persecution. With a lot of effort the Jews organized themselves, knowing they were recorded then sang " Hatikva".

As you can hear they sang the original version exactly as it was written by Naftali Imber.

The video slideshow link below was compiled from photos by BBC on April 15th 1945.  As disturbing as these photos are to see, the world has to know that NEVER AGAIN means NEVER AGAIN!

ISM Brings Fake "Holocaust Survivor" to UC Irvine

by Lee Kaplan

Note: "Lee Kaplan is the ONLY free-lance journalist who has consistently placed himself in harms way to get the real story about the infiltration into the United States and the establishment of a fifth-column by Muslim extremists on the campuses of our hallowed institutions of higher learning, large and small. Lee, a proud Jew has had the fortitude to openly and covertly battle the ISM (International Solidarity Movement), an umbrella organization in North America whose tentacles extend to most of our Colleges and Universities where they form and support subordinate organizations such as the Palestinian Students Association, the Muslim Students Association,etc.These entities which are controlled by the ISM, and funded with Saudi money, organize campus activities such as week-end symposiums to "Boycott Israel" and to urge American companies to "Divest from Israel". Lee has formed an organization (Stop The ISM http://stoptheism.com/) to counter the radical islamists  and the damage they are doing by their constant haranguing  against Israel and the United States and blaming them for all of the misery in the world today. Yasher koach Lee Kaplan... Keep up the good work and let us hope that you will not have to continue the battle alone.  Bill Maniaci, Reno, Nevada (Intel Director, B’nai Elim International)


Nice work if you can get it.

The International Solidarity Movement never misses a beat when it comes to propaganda against Israel on US college campuses. In December of 2003, I attended their third national conference, where one seminar discussed infiltrating Jewish groups in America to try and persuade American Jews that Israel was a pariah state, an apartheid regime akin to the former South Africa and a country no American Jew would want to support. Young American students are the targets for such indoctrination because they hold the She spent the war in safety in England.
future of American relations with Israel in their hands. The ISM is working in sync with Saudi-funded ex-president Jimmy Carter in furiously doing tours on American college campuses for just this purpose.

 

This week, UC Irvine is featuring a "Holocaust survivor" named Hedy Epstein who will tell students on the Orange County campus how horrible Israel is and promote the goals of the PLO to dismantle the Jewish state.

 

While it is true that Epstein lost family in the camps (she mysteriously has photos that she cannot account for as to who took them; it would be interesting to find out if they are even genuine - concentration camps didn't do family portraits like your local Sears store, but let's say they are), she nevertheless spent the war in safety in England as a child. Calling oneself "a Holocaust survivor" connotes images of someone who was in the camps him or herself, starved, beaten and ultimately facing a gas chamber. Ms. Epstein was none of these.

  Objections to McMaster University’s application for a seven-year renewal of its operating license for its nuclear program

From Michael Devolin, (B'nai Elim Canadian Director)

To: Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission 

I’m writing this letter as an ordinary Canadian citizen, to officially voice my objections to McMaster University’s application for a seven-year renewal of its operating license for its nuclear program.  

I strongly object to McMaster University being granted license for a seven year extension of its nuclear research program precisely because of the fact that many of its staff are not only Muslims, but also, and more importantly, because these same Muslims originate from countries where the generally desired efficacy of Islam as a religion is hatred and acts of violence, not only against Muslims of opposing sects and doctrines, but also against all non-Muslims, and especially Jews. These Muslims I’m referring to—Muslims involved in McMaster University's nuclear research program—were surely inculcated by what is known most commonly by now as Islam’s culture of violence and hatred during their years living in those countries where this same malefic violence and hatred [of the West] is regarded as unremarkable.   

I am most anxious about the fact that these particular Muslims now have access to Canada’s “nuclear capabilities.” Has the staffs (those who are of the Muslim faith) of McMaster University with access to the Nuclear facilities been fully investigated as to what sect of Islam is their personal choice? Please consider that those of the Wahhabists sects of Islam (and there are many) are not at all forthcoming about this fact. Fanaticism within Islam is widespread, and this same fanaticism does not remain in the Muslim Middle East immediately those who follow its tenets immigrate to our Canada.  

CISIS has been warning for quite some time that Islam’s fanaticism is now a reality for Canada. Luc Portelance of CSIS has stated, “Terrorism is dangerous ideology, and a global phenomenon…Canada is not immune from this ideology.” What is missing in his statement is the fact that, without exception, the terrorism Mr. Portelance refers to is an Islamic phenomenon. We are told that “Islamist” is now the preferred, politically correct term for the adherents of Islam who choose to murder innocents as means of palliating their religiously-inspired and discomposing contempt for the less observant and less–enlightened of mankind, Muslim and non-Muslim alike. But the truth of the matter—a most portentous truth, in my opinion—is that these so-called “Islamists” are inconspicuously invariably of those whom we refer to in the politically-correct, phrasal idiom as “moderate” Muslims, and only later (and this is the security imbroglio we are now facing as a nation) do they become the terrorists and insidious elements we read about daily in the newspapers. 

Raheel Raza (Their Jihad, Not My Jihad) has written of Islam’s many extreme and varied ideologies that, “It had been happening here in Canada to the extent that hate was being spouted through places of worship and by people who make it their day job to incite young people in this hatred. Towards what they perceive to be the imperial powers, the western occupation of parts of the world.” My questions to these Muslims involved in McMaster University’s nuclear research program would be in regards to how they deem this democracy they live in, the values it espouses, and how compatible is their preferred sect of Islam to this same democracy. Are these same Muslims perhaps of those who “make it their day job to incite young people in this hatred”? What other Islamic organizations are they involved with? What are their preferred politics? Do they condone and/or advocate Islam’s barbaric Sharia Law, as opposed to our Western style justice system? Sharia Law is not a justice system I would ever welcome into this country. Neither would I welcome those of Islam who condone its implementation into our present justice system. Much of the Middle East and Africa is suffering from the insalubrious effects of this atrocious “rule of law.” 

As part of my objection to McMaster University being granted another seven years to continue its nuclear research program, I ask that his commission give much thought to the words of the journalist Steven Stalinsky, who wrote, “As the war on terror continues, the voices from the Arab and Muslim world celebrating death over life have been heard more often than those criticizing this philosophy.” I would ask you to consider how active have these Muslim scientists been or with what manners of voice have they protested against the bloodshed and carnage perpetrated upon innocent Muslim, Jews, and Christians around the world? If not actively and loudly contumacious toward those of Islam’s more disagreeable and dark side, then in what measure does their religion figure in their involvement in McMaster University’s nuclear research program? Is there even the slightest possibility of the knowledge they garner from McMaster Univerity’s nuclear research program one day becoming complicit in catastrophic acts of terrorism not only against Canada and innocent Canadians, but also against our Western allies and their civilian populations?

The above are prudent questions indeed. I believe these are not the questions, however uncomfortable and politically incorrect, the governing body of McMaster University are asking those Muslims involved in their nuclear research program. I also believe that now is far too late to begin asking these questions: the advantage and safety of prudence has already been forfeited by the incautiousness of those of McMaster University who cannot see beyond their zeal for discovery the grave and threatening possibility of a cataclysmic terrorist attack as a direct consequence of their foolish obduracy. 

I beg this commission to consider that there is nothing for you to lose in refusing McMaster University another seven years to wilfully endanger the entire continent of North America, and maybe beyond. And there is only prestige for you to gain in preventing acts of terrorism upon Canadian soil against Canadian citizens who deserve to feel safe within the borders of this great and noble country we call home. 

“Why do expressions of tolerance, moderation, rationalism, compromise, and negotiation horrify us [Muslims], but when we hear fervent cries for vengeance, we all dance the war dance…  Why do other people love life, while we love death and violence, slaughter and suicide, and even call it heroism and martyrdom?” –Al-Afif Al-Akhdar, Tunisian intellectual.                                                                              

With sincerity and respect and an intense love for my country

 

Friends, we are on the verge of a significant victory over the Jihadniks at McMaster University in Hamilton Ontario Canada.

(Michael Travis, B'nai Elim)  For the first time in it's forty-eight year history, the nuclear reactor at McMaster has the furtherance of it's license subject to a legal challenge.

Papers filed this week by at least half a dozen citizens of Ontario precede a Provincial hearing in May. Our objective is to force a comprehensive formal investigation into charges made by Dr. Paul Williams (B'nai Elim) and other researchers in the past several years. Most importantly, we intend to bring to the Canadian government's attention the university's systematic attempts to use public funds to provide cover for Al Qaeda operatives ( i.e. Adnan El Shukrijouma) operating in Canada and the United States.

The next few weeks will be critical to our mission. We must get all the press we can, and make our voices heard by the Canadian and American citizenry.  The public hearings in the Canadian capital of Ottawa will afford us the opportunity to make a huge dent in the credibility of "Jihad U" and their terror enabling staff and supporters.

Kol tuv,

Michael

 


 Hamas threatens to start abducting Israelis and Jews overseas

DEBKAfile Exclusive:The threat, issued Sat. April 21, is in response to Israel’s refusal to bow to the terms for releasing the Israeli soldier Gilead Shalit and BBC correspondent Alan Johnston. Israeli security sources: Lacking networks outside the Gaza Strip and West Bank, Hamas is expected to employ the extensive Lebanese Hizballah covert infrastructure which branches out across the Middle East, Africa and Europe, for its threatened kidnap offensive abroad.

Regarding the Palestinian group’s previous vow to kidnap more Israeli soldiers, its spokesmen say that there enough Zionist figures and agents in various parts of the world who can be targeted equally. The Shin Bet security service has circulated a kidnap alert to Israeli embassies, overseas firms and Jewish institutions. The Hamas escalation is taken very seriously. It is also seen as further confirmation of its close working ties with Hizballah under active orchestration by Iran’s Revolutionary Guards.

In the next 24 hours, Palestinian spokesmen plan to release another false bulletin purporting progress in the negotiations for the release of Gilead Shalit who has now been held for nine months without a word on his fate. DEBKAfile’s sources stress that these bulletins are fabricated deliberately to deceive.


‘I FOUND SADDAM’S WMD BUNKERS IN LEBANON’

by Melanie Phillips (1) by Emanuel A. Winston, Mid East Analysis & Commentary

Dear Friends, We first heard this report directly from John Loftus at the First Annual Jerusalem Summit International Conference in October 2003 at the King David Hotel and at Root & Branch in greater detail the same week.

The only follow-on to this report is the visit of the Russian cruiser to Syria’s Latakia port to on-load a tonnage of unnamed materials. At the time, the Russian cruiser was involved in "war-games" but, suddenly broke away - making its unannounced trip to Syria and the special city of Latakia, a stronghold of the minority but ruling Alawites and the Hafez Al-Assad family. The big question is: What will all the media and pundits say when Saddam’s WMD are finally dug up and uncovered in the desert or fields of Syria or Lebanon ....unless Russia got ‘em?

Clearly, Russia under Vladimir Putin, has returned to its days of arming terrorist nations, using them as cut-outs to attack America by proxy terrorists. Putin has returned to his Cold War occupation when he was a KGB officer, while using the U.N. to shield himself and his war-oriented nation. (Comments by Emanuel A. Winston) READ MORE


 

MULTI-CULTURALISM OF EURABIA

by Emanuel A. Winston, Mid East analyst & commentator

Israel’s Left, by following the so-called Multi-Culturalism of Eurabia, is becoming weaker by the day. Europe is in free fall as it dilutes its Christian past with acceptance of Islam into its body politic. As Europe morphs into Eurabia, we see the same warped mind-set adopted by Israel’s Left - under the veneer of Multi-Culturalism.

While the Europeans and Leftist Israelis are failing to maintain the safety of their citizens and sovereignty of their countries, the Muslims are not agreeing to end terror. They see the pleading to end terror as weakness by the failing nations. The Muslim and Arab maintain their solidarity and do not blend with what they perceive of as the effeminate culture of Multi-culturalism. The Muslims keep separate and apart - with one goal in mind, namely, to conquer by the sword and convert all others to Islam in order to create domination of the World by Islam with a Global Islamic Caliphate.

On this matter they remain steady while their intended victims wallow in self-degradation, slavishly honoring and appeasing their dedicated Muslim adversaries. This perceived effeminate weakness is not lost on the male-dominated Islamists as they expand their expectations of conquest and victory over their frightened, whining and compliant adversaries.

As the Islamists use any weapon from bombs to babies, the Eurabians and the Israeli Leftists plead for understanding, begging their Muslim adversaries to please cease terror and join their illusionary brotherhood of peace and accommodation. READ MORE


 

 

Olmert Holds Army Back in Face of Imminent Hizballah, Hamas Threats and Buildup

by DEBKAfile forwarded with comments by Emanuel A. Winston, Mid East Analyst & Commentator

    Perhaps the Jews of Israel may wake up soon - but I fear it won't be soon enough!   Olmert has made it plain that he owns the office of Prime Minister, in that he is supported by the Kadima and Labor Cabinet and Party, many of whom are under investigation for corruption.  Then there are the party hacks in the Knesset who just voted down 3 votes of no-confidence against the Olmert government.  So he/they could remain in power, regardless and irrespective of how the nation is spiraling out of control.  These are the most corrupt of our people and should be run out of town (tarred and feathered) on a rail.   This is what was done to card cheaters in the old West of America.  They knew how to deal with crooks.   Of course, horse thieves were hung on the spot from the good old hanging tree.

Sophisticated C-802 shore-to-sea missiles

 

Israeli prime minister Ehud Olmert and foreign minister Tzipi Livni staged a revealing scrap of asides behind open microphones and TV cameras Monday, May 8.

She said the army chiefs was complaining the politicians were holding them back from dealing with the Palestinian Qassam missiles flying daily from Gaza. He replied: Tell them to take it easy.

Less than a week after Livni told Olmert to resign over the Winograd panel’s deadly criticism of his handling of last year’s Lebanon War, the duo were ready to act out a piece of theater and a course of military passivity. Neither seriously wants to hear what the army has to say – and not just the chief of staff, as in last year’s conflict, but the different views of commanders, as the panel advised. They are too preoccupied with personal survival maneuvers to attend to urgent security issues.

Military experts, some of them recently retired from combat duty, tirelessly warn in daily media interviews that the war build-up on three Israeli borders, Lebanon, Syria and Gaza, has reached dangerous proportions. Not only is the army again unprepared for another conflict in the months to come, but it is held back by the Olmert government from destroying the plentifully rearmed enemy installations before they go on the offensive.   READ MORE


Slain Israeli Professor Saved Others in Va. Tech Massacre

 
by Gil Ronen

 
(IsraelNN.com) As Israel observed Holocaust Day, thousands of miles away, A Rumanian-born Holocaust survivor gave his life in another senseless murder - and apparently in an act of heroism.

Among the 32 people killed by a lone gunman at Virginia Tech Monday is 77-year-old engineering professor, Liviu Librescu, a citizen of Israel. According to eyewitness accounts, Librescu ran to the door of his classroom and blocked it with his body – preventing the gunman from entering but getting shot to death himself as a result.

Alec Calhoun, a 20-year-old student who had been in Librescu's class in room 204, told a reporter that at 9:05 a.m. the heard screams and a loud banging sound from the next-door classroom. When the students realized it was gunfire, he said, some hid behind tables, and others leapt from the classroom's windows. Calhoun himself was among the last to jump. "Before I jumped from the window, I turned around and looked at the professor, who stayed behind, maybe to block the door. He had been killed."

Librescu is survived by his wife of 42 years, Marlena, who was with him in Virginia, and sons Aryeh and Joe who are in Israel. They intend to bury him in Israel.

Asael Arad, an Israeli student who visited the widow after the tragedy, told Army Radio Tuesday that Marlena had been receiving e-mails from students who credited Prof. Librescu with saving their lives. "I lost my best friend," the widow told a reporter for NRG at her home near the Blacksburg campus. "He was a great person, who loved teaching more than anything." Marlena said someone had initially informed her that her husband was injured in the shooting. "I looked for him in the hospitals all day but I didn't find him," she said.

The Librescus are Rumanian Jews who came on aliyah (immigrated to Israel) in 1978 – after then-Prime Minister Begin interceded on their behalf with the Rumanian government, according to Marlena. The couple went on a sabbatical to the United States since 1986 and has been living there ever since.

 


WHOM TO BLAME FOR ASSIMILATION?

by Gennadiy Faybyshenko

I went to see an off-Broadway show called “Jewtopia” with my family. The show was making fun of religion in general and Orthodox Jews in particular. But I guess that’s acceptable to those who consider themselves progressive. The audience was almost exclusively Jewish, although I sensed that I was the only religious Jew in the crowd.

The show featured a traditional Jewish family faced with “a nice Jewish guy brings home a shiksah.” I was not sure of her nationality, but she appeared to be Korean. At first his family was against the Korean girl. His mom asked him, “Was I a bad mother to you?” I started to laugh. What does this phrase have to do with bringing home a girl? The beginning of the show was marked by Jewish humor, and now his mom questions where she went wrong. By the end of the show the mom finally accepts the inevitability of the marriage. The audience responded by clapping, cheering, and shouting “Bravo!” and “Way to go!” Everyone was so positively happy for the new couple. Then something unexpected happened. When the show ended, the actors called up to the stage two members of the audience who had the “lucky number seats.” It turns out it was a couple, a Jewish guy and a Korean girl. Then all of a sudden, when the couple reached the stage, the guy dropped to his knees and asked her to marry him. Well, the scene was definitely moving for the actors because I saw tears in their eyes–but I can’t say the same for the audience. The smiles from the audience disappeared. I heard whispers such as “Traitor!” and “Oh my G-d, how could he? His mom will have a heart attack!”

 

What happened to the audience? A minute ago they were cheering the fictional assimilation, but when confronted with the real life situation, their joy turned to shock. I am confused! From what I understood, intermarriage is okay in principle but not in reality. That makes no sense to me. The Jewish establishment sponsors interfaith outreach programs where Jewish singles can meet gentile singles and assimilate. They seek to break the barriers between Jews and gentiles and then ask themselves where they went wrong?
I know so many “Jewish mothers” who give me thousands of racial reasons why their kids cannot intermarry. But they make no sense to a person who believes that everyone was created equal. Yes, those Jewish mothers who lived in Europe did not have the option to marry a non-Jew because of anti-Semitism. But what kind of excuse can they give to their children who grew up in America where anti-Semitism is at minimum? What makes a gentile girl different from a Jewish girl? Some mothers may say that a gentile girl is an anti-Semite. That’s a lie. There are tons of gentile girls who are not anti-Semitic and who are smart and intelligent and beautiful. Believe me, I’ve met so many beautiful gentile girls that my head was spinning just at glancing at them.

 

Thus, when a son or a daughter brings home a non-Jewish date, a nice Jewish mother will disapprove. But imagine if the child is honest, not a hypocrite, and not racist. He will not listen to his parents and indeed will marry that girl because there was no proper reason not to. All those reasons that so-called Jewish mothers give are racist and make me sick. I was also secular once and when my family was telling me to date Jewish girls, indeed I ended up dating non-Jewish girls. Children ask honest questions but it all comes down to the question of why be Jewish? Why not be a regular person like everyone else? Why be so isolated? Why be Jewish?

 

How does a Jew differ from a gentile? Definitely not by skin color, because there are white, black and brown Jews. Definitely not by intelligence, because there are very smart gentiles. But there is something that a Jew has that no one else has. He was given a set of divine laws from Mount Sinai and was commanded to follow them. That alone is what makes Jew different from gentile. However, if any gentile born and raised in any place on the earth wants to be part of Judaism and honestly accepts it, then he or she is a real Jew and has all the rights to marry someone who was born a Jew and raised as a Jew. And that is why Judaism is not racism. All we want is to live according to the commandments that our G-d, the only G-d, gave us to follow. But without that, isn’t a secular mom’s objection to intermarriage just a racial excuse after all? Fifty percent of American Jewish youth intermarry. And Jewish establishment sits confused and asks where did they go wrong?

Rally Against Islamofascism a Success

by Jim Nutting, B'nai Elim International

Last week Jesse Petrilla, founder and National Director of the United American Committee (UAC) along with his very patriotic members and supporters joined in “The Rally Against Islamofascism” held in major cities across America.  Though the turnout was good, it could have been better.  The rallies were strategically located in all the cities where there was high visibility .  In Anaheim California for example, there were many passers-by, some critical of the message, but the majority were supportive.  The next event will be much larger because of the visibility.  At the event in Anaheim, an effigy of Osama bin Laden (right) was tried, sentenced and put to death by hanging.  It was a fantastic message to both Americans and the Jihadist enemy.  To the American it says that there are still fellow countrymen who will never forget what happened.  To the Jihadist enemy, it says that an attack on freedom is a sure death sentence, and again, Americans will never forget.  READ MORE

A Call to Arms: CAIR Must Be Fought

Henry Mark Holzer

Once again CAIR is back in the news. This time it is supporting the just-commenced lawsuit by the “flying imams” against US Airways. In essence, the action contends that the airline violated the imams’ rights by bouncing them off a flight because of their seemingly threatening conduct.

This lawsuit is yet another move in the national security chess game by which CAIR, using the threat of lawsuits and actually suing, intends to silence all those in the United States who oppose the Islamic agenda for America.

Wrapping itself in the flag, invoking the Constitution, and hiding beneath its veneer of a self-styled “civil liberties” organization—modeled on its anti-American mentor and template, the American Civil Liberties Union—CAIR is the preeminent domestic mailed fist of Islam in the velvet glove of purported civil liberties.

Whatever its other activities, CAIR  is using the American legal system to intimidate the exercise of free speech, to undermine our homeland defense, and to advance Muslim cultural infiltration of our domestic institutions by seeking special dispensations concerning dress, national holidays, educational textbooks, the content of books, movies, and television, and more.

In addition to its incessant intimidating complaints about the alleged violation of “Muslim Civil Liberties,” CAIR sued the website Anti-CAIR for $1.35 million for “libelous defamation.” It went after a congressman because of a statement he made to a reporter that the organization was supporting a fund-raising arm of a foreign terrorist organization. The CAIR-supported Global Relief Foundation, Inc., sued media defendants for reporting that GRF was a target of a federal investigation into funding for terrorism.

CAIR sued even the Attorney General of the United States and the Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, challenging the constitutionality of a Patriot Act document production section. It allowed the FBI to apply to the Federal Intelligence Surveillance Court “for an order requiring the production of any tangible things (including books, records, papers, documents, or other items) for an investigation to obtain foreign intelligence information not concerning a United States person or to protect against international terrorism or clandestine intelligence activities, provided that such investigation of a United States person is not conducted solely upon the basis of activities protected by the first amendment to the Constitution.” READ MORE

Hagee: Giant of Christian Zionism has awakened

By Stan Goodenough
 


American evangelical leader John Hagee took a powerful message of support for Israel to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee’s 2007 policy conference in Washington DC earlier this week.
“I want to say this as clearly and as plainly as I can possibly say it,” he emphasized, his booming voice filling the auditorium.
“Israel you are not alone. There are 50 million Christians standing up and applauding the State of Israel.”
Hagee, pastor of the 18,000 member Cornerstone Church in San Antonio, Texas, and founder of the newly-formed national organization Christians United for Israel (CUFI), repeatedly triggered standing ovations from the crowd. “It’s a new day in America,” he cried. “The sleeping giant of Christian Zionism has awakened.  READ MORE


 Islam: An Egregious Culture

by Michael Devolin, B'nai Elim Canada

Steven Stalinsky, the Executive Director of the Middle East Media Research Institute, wrote in the National Review (May 2004) that, "As the war on terror continues, the voices from the Arab and Muslim world celebrating death over life have been heard more often than those criticizing this philosophy." Judging either by the silence or the non-committal voices of the so-called "moderates" of Islam, we the inexperts-on-Islam, non-Muslims of this world can only surmise that Islam has fixed itself upon the course set out for it by the violent and bloody-minded of this religion. A course pondered and plotted not only by Mohammed himself, but also by many extremists since Islam's conception.

The famous British historian Charles Allen mentions in his book God's Terrorists that present day Wahabbism began long before the Arab Al Wahhab (born in 1702), from whom the Wahabbists get their name, but earlier, in the late 13th century (1263), in what is now Syria, in the heart and mind of the Sunni jurist Sheikh Ibn Taymiyya. Bernard Lewis (whom I consider to be too much an apologist for Islam and too little an objective historian) points out that sectarian violence within this religion's bloody sphere began immediately the Prophet Mohammed died and his so-called heir apparent could not be deemed as being apparent enough. Regardless, wherever Islam takes root, violence is found there, and in effusive measure.  READ MORE

DOME OF THE ROCK- TARGET OF MUSLIM EXTREMISTS?

by Emanuel A. Winston, Mid East Analysis & Commentary

Concern has been raised in Israel that Islamic terrorists such as Hamas or Al Qaeda may target the Muslim shrine of the Dome of the Rock or Al Aksa Mosque which both sit atop the site of the Jewish Temple Mount in Jerusalem.

The Islamic terrorists would then blame Israel to arouse Muslim anger in order to trigger a war in the Middle East. The subsequent loss of Muslim lives is of little concern to them. On the contrary, they even think this is the best way to get their fellow Muslims into their paradise by making them "Shaheedim" (Martyrs for Islam). We have already seen Shiite and Sunni Muslims target each others’ mosques for demolition and that both use their so-called "shrines" for the storage of weapons, explosives and safe houses for their Terrorists. They do, however, expect Americans and Israelis to respect the self-proclaimed sanctity of their mosques and shrines.

Suspicions were raised in light of the frenzied reaction to Israel repairing a crumbling, earth-quake damaged, earthen ramp that leads up to the site of the Temple Mount. They tried to assert that the Dome of the Rock and Al Aksa Mosque were endangered by these repair measures - a rather ridiculous claim. It was also thought that they were planning to collapse the shaky ramp on top of Jewish worshipers at the Western Wall.  They also may have intended to use this excuse to permanently close the Mugrabi gate (the only gate open to non-Muslims)  to the Temple Mount so no "infidels" (non-Muslims) could enter.

 In this light it is now clear why they always opposed any infrastructure improvements in the area. With an anarchist agenda, they want people to get hurt and are happy to help the process along if it benefits their religious war against the Jews, Christians and all other non-Muslims whom they view as "Infidels" who they must kill.

In fact the Muslim Wakf has been carrying out secret excavations under the Temple Mount to make up and reinforce their own religious claims while disposing of all Jewish artifacts from the First and Second Temple periods of the Jews.

Israeli engineers warned them that they were weakening the supportive walls of the Temple Mount, including the Dome of the Rock and Al Aksa Mosque. A dangerous bulge was spotted on a major retaining wall of the Temple Mount. Yet the Muslim Wakf have continued to undermine the foundations until today.

A moderately small earthquake in February 11, 2004 coupled with the effects of a major snowfall, damaged the Mugrabi ramp leading up to the Temple Mount. Even a small earthquake could collapse the ancient stone walls. Many earthquakes have hit this region which lies on a major fault along the Jordan River called the Dead Sea Rift which runs the length of Israel, creating a series of active faults throughout the country. The area underlying the entire region is a series of major and minor faults under constant pressure to slip or crack, producing major and minor tremblers. [If you wish to explore this further pull up "Earthquake 2004 damage to Mugrabi ramp to Temple Mount" on Google.] This will explain why even a small trembler could collapse the wall of Solomon’s Temple Mount now that the Muslim Wakf has dug out the core of the Temple Mount.

 It is merely an event waiting to happen.

The other possibility is that the Muslim Arab Terrorists might be preparing to place high explosives on the remaining supports that hold up the Dome of the Rock and Al Aksa Mosque.

BRAVE NEW SCHOOLS
Students facing charges of 'desecration of Allah'
Hamas, Hezbollah flags used in college Republicans protest

Terrorist Hezbollah flag

College Republicans at San Francisco State University desecrated the name of Allah by stepping on makeshift Hezbollah and Hamas flags, charged school officials who brought the students before a hearing yesterday.

The trouble began at an Oct. 17 anti-terrorism rally in which the students stepped on butcher paper painted to resemble the flags of the Middle East terrorist organizations Hamas and Hezbollah. The College Republicans say they simply copied the script from an image on the Internet and didn't know it bore the name of Allah in Arabic script.

University spokeswoman Ellen Griffin, however, told San Francisco Chronicle columnist Debra J. Saunders the university "stands behind this process" of investigating the students for possible punishment.

"I don't believe the complaint is about the desecration of the flag," Griffin said. "I believe that the complaint is the desecration of Allah."

The university has 10 days from the time of the hearing to decide whether to sanction the students.

Greg Lukianoff, president of the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education, or FIRE, which represents the students, insisted the school has no basis for punishing them.  READ MORE

Some questions that must be answered  

by Robert Turk

Chairman, B'nai Elim

 As a response to many emails I have received this past year, I feel it is important to give you some information about the JDL.  When Rabbi Kahane made aliyah, The Jewish Defense League was a healthy viable organization with thousands of brave members willing to put themselves in harms way to protect Jews all over the world. Within months of Irv Rubin assuming chairmanship of the JDL, the organization fell into disarray with membership plummeting from thousands to about ten or twenty hardcore supporters.  Irv was a brave man, a well intentioned Jewish fighter but he was no Rabbi Kahane. The Rabbi often said “A Jewish fist must come with a Jewish mind”, Irv obviously did not have the Jewish mind or the organizational skills that the Rabbi Kahane possessed.  

There are some who question whether Irv Rubin was murdered or did he commit suicide. I can’t comment on that because I was not present at the jail, but I do find it troubling that I haven’t heard of any wrongful death suit being brought against the state California or the federal government.  I also find it troubling that Jews are not afforded the same protections and religious cultural rights in our prisons as other inmates.

There are also some questions that must be answered. During the past few months I have received many complaints about checks for membership in the JDL being cashed and then receiving no contact from the organization.  The only answer I can give is that while many of B’nai Elim’s leadership had been in the JDL, we no longer have any connection to that organization.    

I will always try not to condemn another Jewish organization unless I find them treasonous to Israel or the Jewish people. I will ask you to check the facts, find out what organization is out on the streets protecting Jews, find out who is going to college campuses and confronting the Islamic threat to Israel and the west and find out which group is working with closely with other groups like America’s truth forum, The Jewish Legion and United American Committee.  I ask you to please do your homework before sending donations or joining any organization.  Just because the names may sound familiar, it doesn’t mean that they are the real deal. 

April 20th was the first anniversary of the B'nai Elim.  On behalf of myself and our board of directors, I would like to thank all of our members and supporters, both Jews and Righteous Gentiles for helping us build this great educational organization.  We have accomplished a lot in only one year.  Please stand with us in our battle to fight and expose the enemies of the west who want to destroy Israel and our people.  The time is near and we need your continued support.        

Kol tov, Robert Turk

Sometimes, I think I’m talking to the wall when I seek to educate the Hollywood crowd in the hope of somehow getting them to realize that we are in a war. We’re facing a real war, with an enemy who wants to actually kill us. If these savages had their druthers, we’d all be beheaded or living in submission to whatever it is that they think is Allah’s will.

Actually, I think that we, in this country, are so soft that we have no concept of what terror is. To the star-studded surroundings in which I live, I am usually astounded at the utter lack of comprehension of what is facing us. When I say “us”, it’s a collective thing... Jew, Christian, Buddhist, white, black or purple... If you're not one of them, they want us dead.

This is a culture that thrives, no, lives, for death! It’s difficult to face the reality of terror when you live in a home with security systems and bodyguards behind gated walls. Most of us don’t know what it’s like to walk outside and find the car gone; or up on blocks with the wheels gone. For sure, they can’t imagine catching a bus where a homicide bomber is riding next to them with the bomb under his or her coat. With them, everything is “over there.” The media gives coverage to people who make their livings pretending to be someone else. And, courage in Hollywood is getting up the guts to ask for another five or ten million for a picture.    READ MORE

Whine With Your Cheese?

We read about the violent protests throughout the Muslim world. The protests started in Jerusalem because the Palestinian Arabs see that Israel is rebuilding a ramp to the Temple Mount.  The Palestinian Arabs use it as to access the “Al Aksa” compound. What are we to think?  Will the world demonize Israel for destroying one of the Muslim’s most sacred places?  No I doubt it; for one, the excavation has nothing to do with their site and I don’t think the Usless Nations could even support this wolf-cry. At this time it looks like only the Muslim world is uptight about this. The rebuilding is necessary.  In 2004 a storm destroyed the ramp leading to the Mugrabi Gate to the Temple Mount. The Israel Antiquities Authority is conducting salvage excavations to protect ancient remains.  It’s going to get done whether the Arabs like it or not.  READ MORE


Mob Rule On College Campuses

by Cinnamon Stillwell 

America's college campuses, once thought to be bastions of free speech, have become increasingly intolerant toward the practice. Visiting speakers whose views do not conform to the prevailing left-leaning political mind-set on most campuses are at particular risk of having their free speech rights infringed upon. While academia has its own crimes to atone for, it's the students who have become the bullies as of late. A disturbing number seem to feel that theirs is an inviolate world to which no one of differing opinion need apply.  As a result, everything from pie throwing to disrupting speeches to attacks on speakers has become commonplace.

.How the Extreme Left Met the Extreme Right
by Schmool Chona   

Often the question is asked of student, would you rather live under a
communist regime or a tyrannical fascist?  What many do not realize is that this is no longer a valid hypothetical question. The reason lies in the fact that both joined forces several years ago to defeat their common enemy, the progressive moderates and neo cons that developed as a result of the Clinton and Bush Jr. Presidencies. There is no clearer example of the uneasy union between the leftists and the rightists than on college campuses across the United States.

Binyamin Kahane's last letter to us

Last Message...

Take Your Own Destiny In Your Own Hands...

Binyamin Kahane's parting message was for the settlers to take matters into their own hands. The daily murder of Jews coupled with the futility of the IDF caused Binyamin to come to the conclusion that the settlers will inevitably have to fend for themselves - and that's a good thing.

Binyamin had already met with key people in the Samarian area ("Gav HaHar" - which includes the settlements Tapuach, Yizhar, Ittemar, Har HaBracha, Elon More) to help implement his plan - he felt that these settlements were more apt to agree with his approach, more willing to cut the IDF umbilical cord. He had just begun a "speaking tour" at various settlements to bring this idea over. The fact that he started going "public" after so many years of spreading ideas "quietly" is proof of how much he believed in this idea. In his last "shiurim", in his parasha sheets and during his speaking tour in the States, he also emphasized this message, tying it in with Hanukah: "The miracle of Hanukah was that Jews were ready to fight".

Break our heads and break some more

Written by Gennadiy  Faybyshenko,

 As we approach February, we come to an unfortunate anniversary of what has happened on February 1st, last year, G-d willing may it never repeat again. I am sure that, throughout the media, almost everywhere in the U.S. February 1st does not mean much. But it does. One year ago, when Olmert, took control of the Israeli government, wanted to exercise his power and continue on suicidal concessions to give away Jewish Land to appease Arab Muslim terrorists. The one settlement that will never go away from our hearts, the community of Samaria, built on the hill that overlooks Ofra, whose name is derived from the Book of Joshua 18:24, where it is named Chepharhaammonai, literally, Village of the Amonites, called Amona.  READ MORE


A Leftist Judge is Helping Destroy Israel

  Missiles fall on school kids in Sderot, three young soldiers are still held hostage, young men in the IDF risk their lives in Gaza, Hizbullah and Hamas rearm, and both raise money and propagandize for Israel's destruction all over America at colleges and churches as war looms. But Israel's judiciary just keeps rolling along. READ MORE

 
 
 
Last year George Rishmawi and Huwaida Arraf, founders of a radical, anti-Israel organization called the International Solidarity Movement, created a study abroad program as a cover to sneak ISM activists into West Bank so that they could act as "human shields" to interfere with Israeli anti-terrorist activities. Now, Rishmawi has created a new media cover to serve a dual purpose for the ISM. ISM activists will pose as "journalists" to get past Israeli border security -- with funding for them coming from yet another non-profit organization. READ MORE

America’s Worst Anti-Jewish Action

Commentary by Lewis Regenstein

December 17, 2006 is the 144th anniversary of the worst official act of anti-Semitism in American history.

On that day in 1862, in the midst of the Civil War, Union general Ulysses S. Grant issued his infamous “General Order # 11,” expelling all Jews “as a class” from his conquered territories within 24 hours. Henry Halleck, the Union general-in-chief, wired Grant in support of his action, saying that neither he nor President Lincoln were opposed “to your expelling traitors and Jew peddlers.”

A few months earlier, on 11 August, General William Tecumseh Sherman had warned in a letter to the Adjutant General of the Union Army that “the country will swarm with dishonest Jews” if continued trade in cotton is encouraged. And Grant also issued orders in November 1862 banning travel in general, by “the Israelites especially,” because they were “such an intolerable nuisance,” and railroad conductors were told that “no Jews are to be permitted to travel on the railroad.”  READ MORE


Minority My Foot

Written by Michael Devolin

B'nai Elim Canada

I’ve been reading Haroon Siddiqui’s column in the Toronto Star for years, more for the laughs than for anything I might have learned from his weekly dissemination of apologia in support of Islam (and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia) and his exculpation of Muslims who carry out terrorist acts. His article ‘India’s Muslims deemed to be in dire straits’ is one of the most blatent examples of the deviousness he exercises in blaming others for the sins of Islam.

Siddiqui declares that 150 million Indian Muslims are a “minority.” Forgive me, but being a devoted red-neck from a small town in rural Canada, 150 million does not sound like any kind of a minority to me. Hey, I’ve rode the subway in Toronto, and as an Irish-Canadian who was born and raised in this country, I can tell Mr. Haroon a thing or two about being a minority. In my opinion, 150 million Muslims--no matter how huge the ‘majority’ amongst whom they live--is no minority! My point is, today it is estimated that there are 750,000 Muslims living in Canada. Yet, I find in the newspapers every day something about Muslims and Islam and how both are being mistreated by my country, which would indicate that even a mere 750,000 Muslims don’t live up to the social science definition of a “minority.” I can’t imagine the complaints that most surely abound from the Muslim minority of 150 million in India! Talk about a squeaky wheel!  READ MORE


A lawyer with his briefcase can steal more than a hundred men with guns

Don Corleone, in The Godfather

By Michael Travis

I must admit to spending several hours each day perusing the Israeli message boards such as Walla and Ynet for entertainment and news from home. Most of the articles and postings on the Israeli boards have to do with the "situation" vis-a-vis the Palestinians, Lebanon, or Iran, but sometimes I discover articles and discussions that are relevant to North American Jewry and the Canadian public at large. An example of such discussions, and one that has not been covered by the Canadian media, is the case of Professor Paul L. Williams who is being sued by our own McMaster University for millions of dollars.

A Fear of Danger

Written by Michael Devolin

B'nai Elim Canada

In his illuminating book America Alone, Mark Steyn writes, "Meanwhile, we fight the symptoms--the terror plots--but not the cause: the ideology. The self-imposed constraints of this war--legalistic, multilateral, politically correct--are clearer every day."

I agree with Mr. Steyn, that these are the constraints preventing any sort of meaningful counterpoise on the part of the Western governments and their functionaries against what is evidently Islam's intended political and demographic asphyxiation of our Judeo-Christian culture and ideals. Islam's apologists will tell you that there is no such intended asphyxiation of Western Judeo-Christian culture and ideals, and many of our naive pluralists believe them. But remember, they also told the same story to continental Europe, and now continental Europe is referred to by many of its detractors as Eurabia. Judeo-Christian culture in Western Europe has been euthanized by Islam. This cultural and religious extirpation is what the Italian beauty Oriana Fallaci was driving at in her book The Rage and the Pride, where she likens the desecration of Italian culture by Muslim immigrants to a beautiful women being raped. This Islamic euthanasia of Judeo-Christian culture has now transmogrified Europe, and its carcinogenic effect is beginning to gain momentum in North America, more so in Canada than in United States.  READ MORE

Rav Binyamin and Talia Kahane HY"D: Six-Year Memorial

Six years ago, Rav Binyamin and Talia Kahane HY"D were gunned down next to the town of Ofra in the territory of Binyamin, in front of their five daughters... their son having just been dropped off at school.

The details of what really happened that morning six years ago are shady. A year after their murders some, but not all, of those close to them still wanted to believe that they were simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. But, those theories quickly faded away, though, making way for the more realistic understanding that they were intentionally targeted. Only one question remains: Who did it? Arabs? Un-Jews (ie. people who think they are Jews,...but couldn't possibly be)? Or a collaboration of the two?

A Monument for Rabbi Kahane

by Shifra Hoffman
November 01, 2006

ISRAEL NATIONAL NEWS

Contrary to the well-known proverb that "time heals all wounds," there are some wounds that never truly heal.

In the  sixteen years since the late and revered Rabbi Meir Kahane was taken from us, his loss grows acutely more painful, as his prophetic warnings concerning the danger to the survival of Israel posed by Arab nationalism becomes a daily reality.

Great men are sometimes decreed to  suffer in this world. Ironically, their tremendous accomplishments often benefit others, while they themselves are destined to bear "slings and arrows" for their unflinching commitment to a higher calling.  Indeed, Jewish history is replete with the self-sacrifice of such noble Jews, whose deeds, with G-d's help, have assured the survival of the Jewish people throughout the ages.
