OBAMA TO ISRAEL: "SHRINK AND DIE" - Obama wants Israel to shrink itself to a size smaller that the total area of Houston, Texas. He believes that the Muslims, who already control 99% of the Middle East plus parts of Asia and Europe, must be given the land that Jews fought and died for to make "peace." Israel has been shrinking itself at the insistence of both Democrat and Republican presidents since Jimmy Carter. The result has been more terrorist attacks, not only on Israel but on the United States. Osama bin Laden made it clear that the 9-11 Jihad attack on the USA was punishment for supporting the very existence of Israel, regardless of its size. Obama's anti-Israel policy will not end Muslim terror, it will only embolden it. Barack Obama is setting forth an agenda for Israel which will lead to a war of extermination against Jews and perhaps the use of nuclear weapons by Israel as a final defense against another Holocaust.

PUBLIC SCHOOL CHILDREN WORSHIP OBAMA - In a public school auditorium in New Jersey, elementary age children, both black and white, were filmed singing a song of praise to "Barack Hussein Obama" for all his glorious deeds. The school district refuses to respond to news organizations' questions, but the video on Youtube leaves no doubt about the intent of the teacher to indoctrinate the school children. I thought the Hollywood stars video promising to "serve" Obama was on the weird side, but this video of children singing a worship song about a living president is sickening. See video of kids worshiping Obama here.

SCHOOL CZAR'S DRUG USE? - President Obama's "safe schools czar," Kevin Jennings has advocated promoting homosexuality in schools. He has written about his past drug use without condemning it and expresses a general contempt for religion. While a teacher in 1990, he was one of the founders of the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network, a group promoting pro-homosexual activities in public schools. This is just one of the czars that Barack Obama surrounds himself with. Read more

HEALTH CARE AND ABORTION - A conference committee has the final say in what is in a law. Often the law that comes out of the joint House-Senate conference has little resemblance to either the House or the Senate version. Many times the majority party will allow the minority small victories in the House or Senate chambers because they plan on removing those "victories" from the final language in conference. In the House version of Obama-care, abortion is not only paid for in the "government option," but it is mandated that "approved" private insurance companies must cover abortion. The Democrats in the Senate have now agreed that their Obama-care bill will not cover abortion. BUT, BUT, BUT: It is the Democrat controlled conference committee that will actually write the finished Obama-care law after it is voted on in the Senate. I can assure you that radicals Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid will appoint conferees from the House and Senate to work on the final language who believe there are too many living Americans and more need to be aborted. Liberals believe the birth rates are too high and the carbon "footprint" of human beings disturbs the planet.

PROTECTING TAXPAYERS' CONSCIENCES - Congressman Pete Olson of Texas has introduced the Taxpayer Conscience Protection Act that would force an audit of how tax dollars are spent that go to organizations such as Planned Parenthood. Olson points out that the funds are liquid and just sort of disappear inside Planned Parenthood with no proof that tax dollars are not used to promote abortion. It is very unlikely that radical House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will allow a vote either in committee or on the floor for this legislation. Read more

FORMER MUSLIMS ASK FOR PROTECTION - The day before the Muslim "Our Day Has Come" rally on Capitol Hill former Muslims pleaded with Congress for protection from Sharia law. This Islamic law mandates death for adult male "apostates." Females are usually imprisoned for life, but sometimes just killed in Western nations such as the UK and the USA. In Texas two teenage girls were murdered last year by their father for "straying" from Islam. Honor killings are also becoming popular with Muslims in the United States. A "moderate" Muslim TV cable channel operator ion New York beheaded his wife this year when she asked for a divorce. Read a toned down story in the Washington Times ... Yes ... Fear of Islam even effects conservative outlets. Click here for Former Muslims United home page.

YALE UNIVERSITY'S FEAR OF ISLAM - It has been almost four years since publication of some political cartoons depicting the Prophet Mohammad in an obscure Danish newspaper led to riots in countries around the globe and resulted in the deaths of 200 people, trade boycotts against Denmark, and attempts by the United Nations Council on Human Rights to have 'blasphemy laws" observed by member nations.

This week Danish author Jytte Klausen led a discussion at the Hudson Institute about her book, "The Cartoons that Shook the World." Her publisher, Yale University Press, refused to allow the actual cartoons to be reprinted in the book, out of fear of violence. Riots followed the original cartoons' publication were not spontaneous, but were carefully orchestrated by an international network of radical imams bent on intimidating the West and gaining a toehold for Sharia laws in Europe. Free speech is a major front in the war against Islamic extremism. Dutch parliamentarian Geert Wilders must live in secret locations under constant guard because of his film called "Fitna." He is but one on a growing list of those threatened or even killed for publishing articles, books or movies critical of Islam.

THE MARCH - Emboldened by victories for sharia law in Europe and Canada, Muslims have organized a march on Capitol Hill for Friday, September 25, 2009. The theme of the march is "Our time has come," to make the point to lawmakers that they must receive the same preferential treatment as they do in other nations. Starting at 4:00 AM loudspeakers will proclaim Washington as Muslim from Capitol Hill to the Lincoln Monument in mandatory prayers. Noise and public nuisance laws will not be enforced as the loudspeakers blast prayers before dawn. The final goal of the estimated 50,000 who plan to participate? To remind Congress that even though they are less than 1% of the population they can not only be organized as well as deadly The organizers of the event have refused to reject terror as a tool of Islam. Read group letter demanding that organizers renounce terror before the march.

THE ORGANIZERS - One of the "moderate" Imam organizers of the "Our Time Has Come" march has advocated that our current Constitution be discarded and replaced by a new Constitution that would create a Caliphate to rule over America. Another of the "moderate" organizers is an attorney who has represented Islamic terrorists including those who first bombed the World Trade Center in 1993.

IRAQ, ISRAEL AND WHATEVER - Congressmen and Senators go on fact finding missions to many of the same places I visit on fact finding missions, such as Israel, Iraq, and Jordan. When they come back I talk to them, and I find that because of the State Department they never see what I have seen while there. I give them contact information for Christian refugees in Jordan, but the State Department routes them to UN officials. I make arrangements for them to visit bombed out churches in Iraq, but State tells them it is too dangerous to go. In Israel I make arrangements for them to visit "settlements" like the city of Ariel, and somehow the Embassy there manages to route them elsewhere. I have been doing this work for decades and this is not an Obama or Hillary Clinton problem. Condoleezza Rice did the same thing under Bush. The result is that there is almost no media coverage of the problem in the Middle East of persecution of non-Muslim minorities. Attention is also directed away from major cities in Israel that the State Department wants handed over to Palestinian Muslims. For the most part, the State Department sides with dictators against democracies and favors persecutors over the persecuted.
