KORAN REPLACES BIBLE AT ELLISON’S SWEARING IN 01/06/2007
by Moody Adams
For the first time in U.S. history, Keith Ellison was sworn into Congress with his hand on the Koran instead of the Bible. Supporters shouted the words of the 9/11 suicide bomber, "Allahu Akbar," the same phrase allegedly used by the 9/11 suicide pilots.
The pro-Muslim media made much of the fact that the Koran came from Jefferson’s library, making the bitter pill go down easier (I have a Satanic Bible in my library to better know my enemy). Jefferson was in a battle with Muslims over their slave trading.
With all the media praise for this act of tolerance, there was no mention of the gastly facts about the Koran. It teaches:
Muslims must fight until there is no worship but that of Allah, 2:193: Fight therefore against them until . . . the only worship be that of Allah.
Cutting off the heads of infidels assures you of Paradise, 47:4-6: When ye encounter the infidels, strike off their heads till ye have made a great slaughter among them, . . . And whoso fight for the cause of God, their works he will not suffer to miscarry; He will vouchsafe them guidance, and dispose their hearts aright; And he will bring them into the Paradise, of which he hath told them. (also 9:85).
Slaves are a gift Allah has given to Muslims, 33:50: O Prophet! we allow thee thy wives whom thou hast dowered, and the slaves whom thy right hand possesseth out of the booty which God hath granted thee,
Allah made men superior to women, 4:34: Men are superior to women on account of the qualities with which God hath gifted the one above the other.
Lying is not evil when it is an advantage to Islam, 24:11 Of a truth, they who advanced that lie were a large number of you; but regard it not as an evil to you. No, it is an advantage to you.
Those Christians who say Jesus is the Messiah are infidels, 5:17: Infidels now are they who say, “Verily God is the Messiah Ibn Maryam (son of Mary)!
Jews were turned into apes, 2:65: Ye know too those of you who transgressed on the Sabbath, and to whom we said, “Be changed into scouted apes: And we made them a warning to those of their day, and to those who came after them, and a caution to the God-fearing:
Muslims must make war on all nations that do not enforce the laws of the Koran, 9:29: Make war upon such of those … who forbid not that which God and His Apostle have forbidden.

Make Way for the Mega-Mosque
Make Way for the Mega-Mosque
By Dale Hurd
CBN News
January 9, 2007
CBNNews.com - LONDON - Some now call London the "Muslim capital of Europe."
No Western city has more mosques.
And now London could be home to the largest Mosque outside of the Middle East.
Today, a neglected piece of real estate on London's east end sees little more than commuter trains rumbling past it. But it's the future location of what some say will be the biggest Islamic in-road into Christendom in 400 years: a gigantic mosque complex, the likes of which the West has never seen.
The land for the proposed mega-mosque now only hosts a small building -- a make-shift mosque. But imagine a huge modern Islamic complex right in London; in effect, an Islamic village for worshippers.
A video from the Web site of the mosque architect Ali Mangera shows what will be called the London Markaz, a 17-acre Islamic worship center for as many as 70,000 Muslims. Planned to be the hub of an Islamic quarter for the 2012 London Olympics, it will dwarf many of Britain's Christian cathedrals.
Alan Craig of Christian Peoples Alliance said, "It's going to be very large. It's going to be a mosque, it's going to be an Islamic garden, there's going to be a library, there's going to be residential accommodation...

CBNNews.com -- AUSTIN, Texas - Police shut down 10 blocks of businesses in the heart of downtown Monday morning after dozens of birds were found dead in the streets, but officials said preliminary tests showed no air quality problems and the area reopened around 1 p.m.
As many as 60 dead pigeons, sparrows and grackles were found overnight along Congress Avenue, a main route through downtown. No human injuries or illnesses were reported.
"We do not feel there is a threat to the public health," said Adolfo Valadez, the medical director for Austin and Travis County Health and Human Services.
He said preliminary air-quality tests showed no dangerous chemicals, though the dead birds would be sent for further testing to rule out viruses or poison.

Gas-Like Odor Worries Workers Across NYC
Gas-Like Odor Worries Workers Across NYC

January 8, 2007
CBNNews.com -- NEW YORK -- They bombarded 911 with calls, crowded the sidewalks in front of evacuated buildings and tuned to the news for word of what was happening. The question on the minds of many New Yorkers on Monday morning was: "What's that smell?"
A natural gas-like odor hung over much of Manhattan and parts of New Jersey, confounding authorities. The smell seemed to be gone by early afternoon.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg said there was no indication the air was unsafe. "It may just be an unpleasant smell," he said. He said sensors did not show an unusually high concentration of natural gas, and Con Edison reported it found no gas leaks.
The mayor said the smell may have been caused by a leak of a substance called mercaptan that is added to natural gas for safety reasons to give it a recognizable odor. By itself, natural gas is odorless.
Some commuter trains running between New Jersey and Manhattan were suspended for about an hour as a precaution. A few city schools were briefly evacuated. Some apartment dwellers were advised to close their windows.
Homeland Security spokesman Russ Knocke said there was nothing to suggest terrorism.

Stem cells from amniotic fluid may help avoid ethical dilemma
LIFE DIGEST: Stem cells from amniotic fluid may help avoid ethical dilemma
Jan 8, 2007
By Tom Strode
Baptist Press
WASHINGTON (BP)--Scientists have announced the discovery of cells that have much the same potential as embryonic stem cells but without their ethical drawback, even as the House of Representatives prepares to vote again to fund experiments that destroy human embryos.
A team of researchers from Wake Forest University School of Medicine and Children’s Hospital in Boston found the stem cells in the amniotic fluid of pregnant women, according to The Washington Post. Unlike embryonic stem cell research, the extraction of the cells from the fluid that surrounds an unborn child does not require the destruction of a tiny human being. These cells have the ability to develop into a variety of tissues, a trait of embryonic stem cells, but do not have the tendency to form tumors, a propensity that has plagued research on cells from embryos.
The promising research, reported Jan. 7 in the online version of the journal Nature Biotechnology, was announced only days before the House is set to vote on a bill identical to one President Bush vetoed last year. The vote on the Stem Cell Research Enhancement Act, H.R. 3, is expected to take place by Jan. 11. The measure would provide federal funds for research using stem cells extracted from embryos stored at in vitro fertilization clinics.

Sex-Crazed Cheerleaders Terrorize Dallas School
SEX-CRAZED CHEERLEADERS TERRORIZE DALLAS SCHOOL 01/08/2007
“Even after they turned up intoxicated at a school dance and posed for bawdy photographs in a condom shop wearing their cheerleader uniforms, disciplinary action was still a long way off,” The London Telegraph reported.
"These girls were given power that any teenager would have completely abused. They were untouchable; they were invincible. The rules did not apply to them," said their former coach, Michaela Ward, 26, who quit in disgust and touched off a $40,000 investigation.
A “Newsweek” article revealed the Fab Five at Dallas’ McKinney North High School:
Posted a MySpace.com photo of a bikini-clad teen sharing a bottle of alcohol with a friend.
Another photo showed five smiling cheerleaders in a Condoms to Go store, posing with large candles shaped like penises; at least one of them appears to be simulating fellatio.
Told teachers to shut up, when corrected about using a cell phone in class. Cheated on tests and skipped school."
Got hold of a teacher’s mobile telephone and sent racy text messages to her husband and another coach.
Harry Jones, an attorney who interviewed 75 people and issued a 70 page report on their conduct, said, "I talked to a real good-looking football coach and he was obviously scared of them. He had taught inner-city school kids in San Francisco and he said gang members were nothing compared with these girls."
The principal has been dismissed with a $75,000 bonus and the girls have been kicked off the cheerleading squad, but not before their lives were tarnished and twisted.
This is a jarring view of parents who are creating a generation of undisciplined, spoiled, self-centered, mean, little rebels.
The prophet Isaiah’s words are appropriate for our generation: “I will give children to be their princes, and babes shall rule over them. And the people shall be oppressed, every one by another, and every one by his neighbour: the child shall behave himself proudly against the ancient” (Isaiah 3:4).
The parents of these children get to keep their children, though they engaged in the very worst form of child abuse. They failed to teach children to respect and obey authority. The Bible says, “Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord,” (Colossians 3:20).

CBNNews.com -- RICHMOND, Calif. (AP) -- A man walked into a church, doused a nativity scene with a flammable liquid and set it ablaze in front of a practicing choir, police said.
Robert Mills, 40, of San Pablo, was arrested Friday night while hiding in a park minutes after police said he walked into St. Cornelius Parish and announced he was going to set the church on fire.
Mills told everyone to leave but blocked the doorway until he began showering the sanctuary with the liquid, giving choir members a chance to escape, said Richmond Police Lt. Enos Johnson.
The fire destroyed the nativity scene, a lectern and carpeting, and caused extensive smoke damage. No one was injured.

Two Israeli air force squadrons have been training for a mission against an enrichment plant in Natanz using low-yield nuclear "bunker busters," Israeli military sources told the Times.
The Israeli weapons would each have a force equivalent to one-fifteenth of the bomb dropped on Hiroshima in 1945...

JERUSALEM – Palestinians in the Gaza Strip today announced the formation of what they say is a new "resistance" group to carry out attacks against the United States, Israel and Iran in the name of executed former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein.
The new purported organization, the Saddam Hussein Martyrs Brigades, will "hit America, Israel, Iran and all the traitors to our people," according to a pamphlet distributed today in the densely populated Gaza Strip city of Khan Yunis and obtained by WND.
"The Zionists and Americans will not dream of more invasion because the reaction of our wing will be very painful. The cells of our organization are spread all around Palestine," the pamphlet stated.
Israeli and Palestinian security sources could not immediately confirm the formation of the purported new group.

When the first Muslim congressman in U.S. history, Keith Ellison (Hakim-Mohammed) of Minnesota, won the 2006 election and was making the regular thank-you-to-my-supporters speech, he allowed his fans to shout, "Allahu Akbar!," the same phrase allegedly used by the 9/11 suicide pilots.
Since November he's addressed various different Islamic groups and organizations, and he's used the Quran to be sworn into office. He's also been linked to Islamic organizations with questionable agendas.
What he hasn't done is respond to requests from WND to confirm that he will, in fact, base his decisions on the laws of the United States on the U.S. Constitution, not the Quran.
It was during his campaign that he raised the issue of his Islamic beliefs himself, and confirmed then that they would play a large role in his decision-making process:

Trial will debate 2nd Amendment rights
Trial will debate 2nd Amendment rights
Defendant is accused of having 'militia' weaponry
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
By Bob Unruh
© 2007 WorldNetDaily.com
A lawyer whose client is on trial for having "militia" weaponry says he'll ask questions and raise arguments about the 2nd Amendment, and then let the judge rule whether or not the Bill of Rights can be discussed in a federal courtroom these days.
A federal prosecutor in the Arkansas case against Hollis Wayne Fincher, 60, who's accused of having homemade and unregistered machine guns, has asked the judge to censor those arguments.
But lawyer Oscar Stilley told WND that he'll go ahead with the arguments.
"I'm going to ask questions, what else can I say?" he said. "There is a 2nd Amendment, and it means something, I hope."
"His (Fincher's) position is that he had a legal right to bear arms that are suitable and customary to contribute to the common defense. If it's a militia army, it's what customarily would be used by the military suitable for the defense of the country," Stilley said.
The objection to constitutional arguments came from Assistant U.S. Attorney Wendy Johnson, who filed a motion several days ago asking U.S. District Judge Jimm Larry Hendren to prevent Fincher and Stilley from raising any such issues.
"Yes, that is correct – the government does not want to allow the defense attorney to argue the law in Mr. Fincher's defense," Michael Gaddy wrote on Freedom Watch.
"If a defendant is not allowed to base his/her defense on the Constitution, the supreme law of the land, we are certainly doomed. If we allow these criminal acts perpetrated on law-abiding citizens to continue, we might as well turn in all our guns and scheduled a fitting for our chains," he wrote.
"Yes, Hollis Wayne Fincher goes on trial on January 8th – but so does our Constitution, our Liberty and our right to own firearms. If Mr. Fincher loses this battle, we all lose," he said.
Fincher, a lieutenant commander with the Militia of Washington County, is accused of having three unregistered machine guns and an unregistered sawed-off shotgun.
Stilley said his client believes no one has a right to use weapons to hurt somebody else, just as "you can't use words to injure. You can't yell 'fire' in a crowded theater."...

According to a taped message posted on the Internet Friday, Osama bin Laden's deputy, Ayman al-Zawahri, urged the Islamic movement's fighters and other Muslims to attack the troops of Christian-dominated Ethiopia, which he called a "crusader" invasion force.
"Launch ambushes, land mines, raids and suicidal combats until you consume them as the lions and eat their prey," al-Zawahri said in the taped message...
