Bomb a warning to end Pakistan-US cooperation
September 21st, 2008 . by TexasFredBomb a warning to end Pakistan-US cooperation
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (AP) - The brazen truck-bombing of the Marriott hotel in Islamabad on Saturday is a warning from Islamic militants to Pakistan’s new civilian leadership that it should end already-strained cooperation with the United States to pursue al-Qaida and the Taliban, analysts said.
The massive bomb targeting an American hotel chain killed at least 40 people and wounded hundreds, setting a fire that blazed for hours and gutted most of the five-story luxury hotel.
“The attack on the hotel is a message to the Pakistani leadership: End all cooperation with the Americans or pay the price,” said Brian Glyn Williams, associate professor of Islamic history at the University of Massachusetts. “Both sides see Pakistan as a vital battlefield in their global struggle and clearly Pakistani civilians are paying the price for being in the middle of this struggle,” he told The Associated Press.
Within hours of the explosion, Pakistan’s Defense Minister Ahmed Mukhtar was quoted on local television channels blaming “foreigners” for the bombing. He pointed the finger at al Qaida and its Chechen and Uzbek members, whose hideouts in the tribal regions have been targeted by the Pakistan military.

Bomb a warning to end Pakistan-US cooperation
When does the world open it’s eyes and realize? Islam IS the problem, remove the problem and you remove the threat. Christians and Jews did NOT start this fight, but we have a choice, either fight and win, thereby destroying radical Islam, ie: ALL of Islam, or we keep on looking over our shoulder as *The Religion of Peace* keeps up it’s murderous reign of terrorism as dictated by their Quran!
Allah is an enemy to unbelievers. - Sura 2:98
On unbelievers is the curse of Allah. - Sura 2:161
Slay them wherever ye find them and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out, for persecution is worse than slaughter. - 2:191
Fight against them until idolatry is no more and Allah’s religion reigns supreme. (different translation: ) Fight them until there is no persecution and the religion is God’s entirely. - Sura 2:193 and 8:39
Fighting is obligatory for you, much as you dislike it. - 2:216
(different translation: ) Prescribed for you is fighting, though it is hateful to you.Those who believe fight in the cause of God, and those who reject faith fight in the cause of evil. - 4:76
But if they turn renegades, seize them and slay them wherever you find them. - 4:89
O believers, take not Jews and Christians as friends; they are friends of each other. Those of you who make them his friends is one of them. God does not guide an unjust people. - 5:54Make war on them until idolatry is no more and Allah’s religion reigns supreme - 8:39
Yep, looks like a *Religion of Peace* to me! What Islam is would best be described as *The Religion of Death and Destruction*. Islam has declared WAR on us, the citizens of the USA, and on any who are our friends. Radical Islam, and that means ALL of Islam, will KILL you if you don’t submit to their *Religion of Submission or Death*.
If you are a COWARD, and that means pretty much ALL libbers, if you are so apathetic that you will stand idly by and allow these merchants of death to kill you, and not put up a fight in your own defense, then you are not worth saving in MY opinion, but if you have the strength and the will to live, to survive and FIGHT for your freedom, you will take this declared war to heart.
Threaten me, my family, my home, my way of life, my friends, my nation and thus my freedom, then you have made an enemy that does NOT preach the hypocrisy of the so-called *Religion of Peace*, I didn’t start this, I didn’t want this, I was all for live and let live, but the actions of radical Islam have forced me to become a radical as well. I will always remember the Marine Barracks Beirut, WTC the 1st time, WTC the 2nd time, the Pentagon, et al…
I learned everything I need to know about Islam on 9-11-01. God bless America! And death to ALL that try to destroy her!

In the mid-90’s I was transferred to Whiteman AFB, MO and in my security briefings was informed that the largest known cell of Hamas, outside of the Middle East, existed 40 miles down the road in Kansas City.

KRT) - Although few in town noticed, a dozen years ago Islamic extremists from around the globe flocked to Kansas City’s Bartle Hall to bond in prayer, song and dance, and ominous appeals for bloodshed. They came by the hundreds to promote jihad, or holy struggle, at two conventions during a pivotal time for radical Islam - December 1989 and again the next winter.
At the first meeting a masked terrorist from the Palestinian group Hamas spoke in Arabic for an hour. He pledged “oceans of blood” would oust Israelis from his homeland. The second conference stirred the passions of a Kansas State University student named Nasser Hidmi, according to Israeli court records.
Islam has, unfortunately, been hijacked by the Militant Islamic Death Merchants. Are there still “moderate” Muslims? Of course. But the threat of death, injury, phyiscal violence keeps them shut up. Our nation’s greatest strength, its freedom and open-ness, is also its greatest weakness and Islamists WILL take EVERY advantage of this fact in order to bring us down. They don’t have marching, uniformed armies, planes, tanks. They don’t need them. They just need to infiltrate as they are doing now, like rapidly-generating white blood cells out of control. At this point, WE are the “nutters” for even broaching the issue. This nation is the frog in the pot; Islam has turned on the burner and the water is getting warmer. The only difference, Fred, is that you and I and some others have the ability to actually SEE and COMPREHEND what is occurring.

BZ, that’s the part that REALLY bothers me, “you and I and some others have the ability to actually SEE and COMPREHEND what is occurring”, you’re very correct in that assessment, not nearly enough DO see it, they don’t see Islam as the enemy, they fall for the *Religion of Peace* bullshit, hook, line and sinker…
The weak minded WILL be the death of this nation, and there are SO many that grow weaker by the minute…
Good let’s end it now. Then we can easily go into Pakistan and finally clean out al Qada and the Taliban.
Every cloud does have its silver lining.
Katie: careful. Be careful. Yes, Musharraf quit under the threat of impeachment. But Pakistan’s new President, Asif Ali Zardari, the widower of assassinated ex-prime minister Benazir Bhutto, is more America-friendly than any other replacement could have been. He is already being excoriated for not reacting more harshly to incursions by US forces across the Afghani border into Paki territory. And please do not forget that Pakistan IS a nuclear power. And one final piece in the equation: it is rumored that Zardari is mentally unstable, his a history of same, and sometimes take his meds and — sometimes not so much.

If the Paki’s are US allies then we’re in sad shape. JFC the Paki’s are worse than the Frogs!
(Hint: There is now such thing as an Islamic nation that’s a real ally of any non-Islamic nation)
Fred, I think many people do see it but they’re scared. They think that if they appease the Islamists, then they will leave us alone. If we’re nice to them and give into their demands, then they will be nice to us. That’s the mindset of not only liberals but also many moderates and some that are right of center. During the Cold War, which BTW is back, many of these same people in the 60’s - 80’s would say “better red than dead”. What these fools don’t realize that with Islam it’s going to be “convert or die”…you will submit or you will be killed.
I will NEVER submit… I may die, but I won’t go quietly or cheaply…
I’m a real 4 or 5 for 1 kinda guy… Numbers matter…
Fred, I’m told there were CIA and State Department employees in the Marriott. Don’t know if any were killed or hurt, seems the media is only reporting what they are told, and are not being told everything.
Debbie, if the MSM was given the 100% full and honest truth about this they’d find a way to skew it in favor of the Muslims…
Lock and load!
