HR 1955 or the “Thought Crimes Bill”, as it is widely called, passed the House in October 2007 with no discussion, and no mention in the main stream press. It is essentially a suspension of your First Amendment rights, the right to free speech, what I am doing right here and right now. Having read my Orwell, I am fully aware that it is almost 1984 – in some instances way past 1984 - and - well, it is just one more casualty on account of our Government’s way to finally abolish the rest of the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and all amendments. This then useless piece of Antique paper – formerly called the Constitution - will be substituted by Martial Law, Plundering, Yellow Stars which will have to be worn by Muslims and random executions of Citizens held by the National Republican's Guard on orders of the President of the National Republican Democrats Party.
Many people are calling this infamous Bill the “thought crime bill”, and with good reason. This bill will criminalize dissent, and specifically targets the internet as the primary method of dissemination of such dissent. It will create a commission to study blogs that question government policy – and currently there are hardly any other blogs. Any comments that could be of violent nature such as: “The punishment for High Treason is death”. Especially now that the Bush crime family has been committing several acts of treason, among them the outing of a CIA agent, criticism can only be an act of Terrorism. Any action or thought which criticizes any Government action and asks for an action according to our former Constitution is an act of violence or as Bush calls it “Enemy combatant”. Or the simple version: Who ever is not with us is against us. Like Hitler did it. Not as subtle as he did it, but still. If you are interested to read the Bill HR 1955, please click here.

Some Democrats are seemingly trying to change the course
And here some voices from Democrats that I support. I hope they are sincere in their mission to stop the senseless killing and dying in an illegal occupation and a civil war which was actually caused by the ignorance of the US leadership. After thoughtfully committing High Treason in outing the CIA agents who could have provided the intelligence that so obviously lacking in the entire leadership of our country, including House and Senate. While drowning in fear they also threaten to abolish the last civil right that was left. Free Speech. Let's see how our US will try to avoid comparisons with Nazi Germany. Good Luck and Good Night. Here the Democrat's voices that are seemingly in the minority:
Stop $70B More for Iraq: Shut Down Congress' Phones
Submitted by Bob Fertik on December 10, 2007 - 3:49pm. OutOfIraq
Once again our Democratic "leaders" are betraying our troops by keeping them in Iraq forever to be murdered or maimed for no reason except the insatiable greed of Bush-Cheney's oil cronies.
On Tuesday, House Democrats plan to approve $30 billion more for Afghanistan. Then Senate Democrats plan to approve $70 billion to cover Iraq as well. Then House Democrats plan to approve the full $70 billion.
Why are our Democratic "leaders" betraying us? Because they want Bush to sign - not veto - the $522 billion omnibus spending bill to fund the government this year. We have no Democratic "leaders" - we have utterly incompetent negotiators who lose 100% of their battles, no matter how much public support they have.
Our Democrats in Congress clearly do not care about the voters who elect them, whether Democrats or Independents, virtually all of whom want them to end the disastrous occupation of Iraq now. Our Democrats in Congress do not care about the troops fighting in Iraq and their families, who oppose the occupation even more than the rest of us, by 69% to 64%. The only support for the occupation of Iraq comes from hard-core Bush Republican voters who never vote for Democrats.
Who do Democrats in Congress actually care about? The donors who fund them - period. So call your Representatives and Senators with a simple message: Not one more penny for Iraq - or not one more penny for your campaign. If you have ever contributed to your Representatives or Senators or to any Democratic committee, be sure to tell them how much you will not give them.
Let's all call Monday and Tuesday (between 9-5 ET) and shut down the Congressional phone system . Call your Representatives directly:
http://clerk.house.gov/member_info/mcapdir.htmlOr call the Capitol switchboard at 202-224-3121 Or call toll-free: 800-828-0498 - 800-614 2803 - 866-340 9281
And join the Democratic Donor Strike against the DCCC and DSCC http://democrats.com/donor-strike-2007
More from our friends at United For Peace and Justice:
Gather some friends together and pay a visit to one or more of your legislators. Stop by during lunch if that is convenient. Emphatically demand an end to the occupation. Your peaceful visit can be brief, or last long enough for your to read the names of every civilian and soldier killed in Iraq, or it can last until the member of Congress agrees to oppose all funding that is not tied to the immediate withdrawal of all U.S. troops and contractors.
If you are able to organize a visit, post notice of the visit here: http://www.unitedforpeace.org/calendar.php?sortby=&caltype=59

Senator Dianne Feinstein against Impeaching Bush and Cheney
When I answered several surveys of the Democratic Party two days ago, I wrote my comments about each subject they asked me to comment on from Impeachment of the leading criminals of this country to the illegal occupation of Iraq and the failed attack on Iran. And I wrote my opinion as always based on GOD's word, HIS commandments and following HIS voice in my heart. For those who already know my style it won't come as a surprise that I was abundantly clear in my answers to these surveys.
At least the Democratic Party has figured out that I fall under the column "progressive" and then some. So now I get the so called "activist" mails instead of the senseless answers I have received in the past when I wrote to an elected official, which did not even have anything to do with the subject I was writing about.
At least now someone makes sure that the prefabricated answers are related to the subject and actually address my concerns. The following letter came as an answer to my request to impeach Cheney and Bush. I agree with my favorite Talk Show hosts Thom Hartmann and Randi Rhodes on Air America Radio (you can listen online. Just click on listen!) that there is something very strange about a Democrat who refuses to hold this administration accountable for their crimes.
Strange is also that the Democrats did not even attempt to fulfill the request of the voters who brought them back into power to stop the illegal occupation of Iraq, they did not reinstate our Constitution, Habeas Corpus is not even on the table, and now they want to let the criminals who shredded our constitution go free? Obviously. But why? Please read Senator Feinstein's argumentation and think about it. Why would someone let those criminals go free. Either you are involved in the crime or on a blackmail list or - what else is there?
Dear Dr. Hast:
Thank you for your letter concerning impeachment proceedings against President Bush. I appreciate the time you took to write and welcome the opportunity to respond.
In our recent elections, the American people expressed clear disapproval with the path this country was on. They are tired of partisan politics and of an Administration that pays little heed to the wishes of the American people. They want-and deserve-a Congress that holds the Administration accountable and fulfills its Constitutional responsibility to check and balance the Executive. I share this sentiment and am determined to work hard and across party lines in the United States Senate to promote issues that are of real concern to most Americans, including the situation in Iraq and Afghanistan, homeland security, global warming, and lobbying and election reform.
At this time, however, I believe that impeachment proceedings against President Bush will only divide the country even further, frustrating our hopes for a meaningful change in direction, while having little chance of success.
I have been deeply disappointed by many of this Administration's actions and have been outspoken in those instances. Nevertheless, given the challenges our country faces I believe that we need to focus on constructive and cooperative steps that would lead us in the right direction.
Again, thank you for your continued correspondence. If you have any further questions or comments, please contact my office in Washington, D.C. at (202) 224-3841. Best regards.
Sincerely yours,
Dianne Feinstein
United States Senator
Dear Senator Feinstein,
I strongly disagree. First we have to clean house before we can move on. America does not want to see the people go free who wasted Billions on a war and illegal occupation - in no way to related to 9-11, if I may remind you - just to benefit huge Corporations, literally gave our nation the finger and are allied with Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. They have shredded our Constitution, promote Torture, killed thousand of Americans for their Oil business and committed more crimes than I have room to mention here.
Please don't forget that Nixon resigned over a few bugs and recordings of his perceived enemies - while we - all of America - are currently being illegally wiretapped on an ongoing basis and that President Clinton had to endure impeachment proceedings for lying about a blowjob, not for killing thousands of Americans, and constantly breaking the law.
End the occupation, reinstate the constitution and bring the criminals to justice.
Oh, and by the way: I just saw a FEMA sign on TV and everybody there was very happy with their performance: In Malibu, California. Congratulations. New Orleans is still in shambles, but all we have to do is "follow the money"...

Iran told the truth - Bush, Cheney and Rice lied to us and to the world!
Iran has no nuclear weapons program. The news channels finally reported this for George W. Bush inconvenient fact that has been known since the year 2003 and that revealed the US Government again as a bunch of warmongering liars.
If it would not be business as usual, the fact that Bush tried to start another illegal war would be an outrage. Just like the Bush crime family lied their way into the illegal occupation of Iraq, they tried to follow up the same way with Iran. Today they had their Spokesmodels on the US TV-Channels spread the lie that bad intelligence almost fooled them like it fooled them in attacking Iraq. What the News Bimbos and Himbos on the fake news from FOX, ABC, NBC and CBS don't tell the public - probably because the Republicans removed the last real journalist from television - is, that the Bush crime family had the so called "evidence" produced just for the reason to start the illegal war and a few days later the illegal occupation of Iraq.
Now they thought they needed to start a new war, just to keep the weapon industry and the contractors that made Billions of illegal Dollars on this charade happy. Not to forget the Oil industry which is largely owned by the Bush administration. They really took care of their own. They tripled the gas prices. Congratulations. They probably won't commit suicide like Hitler did, after he attacked innocent countries, started wars and betrayed his people. They will most likely live very comfortably on their billions of Dollars of Blood money. Just watching these liars on TV makes me sick to my stomach. History will decide. But we have been royally screwed as of today. We treat liars, thieves and murders as Presidents and let them keep on governing us. Where is the outcry? GOD's commandments and the US constitution does not apply for the Christians in our US of A? Where is the American Spirit that has been admired all over the world until we turned our country into an Empire of crime?
Let's hope that the Democrats will finally grow a spine and bring the criminals who raped our USA and a completely innocent country like Iraq to justice. And no, none of these countries had anything to do with 9-11. This was a fabrication of the Bush-Bin Laden connection. Please read. Then you will understand what really happened. May I recommend this column here and this link to our Current Information where you will find lots of facts - the stuff our Government hates.
I am sure that if you read what I wrote about these subjects and compare it with the so called "intelligence" that "just" came to light you might be surprised. How do I know all these things long before our Government admits to them? Everything is so clear and laid out. And looking at the evidence, it all makes sense. WE have been insulting the Arab world (except the Saudis and the United Arab Emirates, where by the way all the 9-11 "terrorists" came from) until they really started hating us on a broad basis.
All we can do is apologize to the Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad for calling him publicly a liar. No matter what he did or does otherwise - at least in this case he did more than our US Government has done in the last six years - he told the truth.

What could we have done with the Money of illegal war and occupation of Iraq?!
GOD bless you all. Another new email got my attention. It shows what we could have done - or still do - with the money the Bush administration has spent so far on the illegal war and occupation of Iraq. With the funding they are currently trying to get from congress, the total cost would rise to $611.5 billion, according to the National Priorities Project, a nonprofit research group. And here is what we could have had:
Almost 18 months' worth of free gas for everyone
US drivers consume approximately 384.7 million gallons of gasoline a day. Retail prices averaged $3.00 a gallon in early November. Breaking it down, $611 billion could buy gasoline for everybody in the United States, for about 530 days.
More than a year of Medicare benefits for everyone
In fiscal 2008, Medicare benefits will total $454 billion, according to a Heritage Foundation summary. The $611 billion in war costs is 17 times the amount vetoed by the president for a $35 billion health benefit program for poor children.
A real war on poverty
According to World Bank estimates, $54 billion a year would eliminate starvation and malnutrition globally by 2015, while $30 billion would provide a year of primary education for every child on earth. At the upper range of those estimates, the $611 billion cost of the war could have fed and educated the world's poor for seven years.
Many, many environment-friendly cars on the road
With $611 billion, you could convert all cars in America to run on ethanol nine times over. TheBudgetGraph.com estimates that converting the 136,568,083 registered cars in the United States to ethanol (conversion kits at $500) would cost $68.2 billion.

9-11: Why the US-Government was involved
Here is another subject. 9-11 is credited to Osama Bin Laden, who denied to be involved at all for the first week and then gave in to the pressure of his families friends and accepted the guilt for this attack. At first he welcomed the attack and regretted publicly that he was not involved. Then, all of a sudden, he said that he did it. Strange? High Military officers reported that they were ordered to let him escape several times. Why? Because all he is guilty of is to protect the real Terrorists. And our Government does not want a public statement with this truth.
Another interesting fact: Most of the foreign insurgents are from Saudi Arabia, not from IRAN. The Government calls them just "AL Qaeda" and insinuates via television that they come from IRAN, the next target that the Republicans and some spineless Democrats have for a war. Actually for World War III, as publicly announced by George W. Bush, because the rest of the world is standing against this Madman who is leading the US in this second unnecessary and absolutely insane war. Like Hitler did with Germany some 60 years ago.
But wait, there is more. The Book "THE NEW PEARL HARBOR" by Professor David Ray Griffin (who has been Professor of Philosophy of Religion at the Claremont School of Theology in California for 30 years and is author and editor of more than 20 books) shows the backgrounds and reasons for 9-11. And why our government is most likely involved in the attack. Here an addendum he added for the second edition, called "40 smoking guns". This book should be read by everyone who has an IQ which enables them to vote for someone other than George W. Bush. They should also watch the movie: "Loose Change 911, 2nd edition" (click this link to watch it for free!)
David Ray Griffin – The New Pearl Harbor
40 Smoking Guns
I have often been asked whether there are any "smoking guns” Pointing to complicity by the Bush administration. This is a question I did not explicitly address in the body of the book. Rather than focusing on those reported events that most strongly suggest such complicity presented a cumulative argument, suggesting that what is most persuasive, assuming the truth of at least a significant portion of the reported evidence, is that so many lines of evidence all seem to point in the same direction….Because this question has come up so often, I will conclude with a list of the reported items that I would so classify. In going back through the book to assemble this list, I was surprised to see how many there are.
1. The failure of standard operating procedures (SOP) to intercept Flight 11.
2. The failure of SOP to intercept Flight 175.
3. The failure of SOP to intercept Flight 77.
4. The fact that the official story as to these failures changed a few days after 9/11.
5. The fact that according to the second version of the official story, the order to scramble jet fighters to intercept Flights 11 and 175 went to Otis Air Force base instead of the nearer base, McGuire.
6. The fact that according to this second version, the order to scramble jet fighters to protect Washington went to Langley Air Force base instead of the nearer base, Andrews.
7. The fact that, even given NORAD'S timeline and the greater distances the pilots had to cover from Otis and Langley, their fighter jets, flying at full speed, should have reached New York and Washington in time to prevent the attacks on the South Tower and the Pentagon.
8. The fact that according to this second version, the fighter jets that were too late to intercept Flights 11 and 175 were not ordered to continue on to Washington, even though it was then known that Flight 77 had bee hijacked and, according to the official story, was headed back toward Washington.
9. Secretary of Transportation Mineta's report of a conversation that may have reflected a stand-down order by Vice President Cheney.
10. The fact that in New York on 9/11, three steel-framed hi buildings, for the first time in history, collapsed because of fires – quite localized fires at that, especially in the South Tower and Building 7.
11. The fact that the South Tower fell first even though, according to the hypothesis that the buildings collapsed because of fire, this tower, having been hit second and having the smaller fire, should not have collapsed first.
12. The multiple types of physical evidence that the Twin Towers and Building 7 collapsed by means of controlled demolition. (Because there are many types of such evidence- - such as the fact that the steel beams and columns were broken into pieces the right size to be loaded onto trucks - this point could have been divided into many smoking guns.)
13. Larry Silverstein's statement that he and the fire department decided to "pull" WTC-7, combined with the evidence that the fire department had prior knowledge of its collapse, despite the lack of any physical evidence indicating imminent collapse.
14. Mayor Giuliani's statement that he knew in advance that the Twin Towers were going to collapse.
15. The quick removal of the steel from all three buildings - especially Building 7, where there would have been no victims - before it could be examined.
16. The fact that photographic evidence shows that the hole created in the Pentagon was much smaller than a hole created by a Boeing 757 would be.
17. The fact that photographs show that there were no remains of a large airliner in front of the crash site, even though, given the small entrance hole, not all of a Boeing 757 could have gone inside.
18. The fact that witnesses also reported seeing no remains of a airliner inside the Pentagon.
19. The fact that the west wing, far from being the most likely part of the Pentagon for terrorists to target, was the least likely, as well as technically difficult to hit.
20. The fact that any non-military plane, not having a transponder sending out a "friendly" signal, would have been automatically shot down by the Pentagon's battery of missiles.
21. The extreme unlikelihood that a hijacked 757 could have flown undetected through American airspace, especially toward the Pentagon, for some 40 minutes.
22. The evidence that the Bush administration lied about not having shot down Flight 93.
23. The fact that President Bush gave the impression upon his arrival at the Sarasota school, even after a telephone conversation with Condoleezza Rice, that he was unaware that two more airliners, beyond the one that had crashed into the North Tower of the WTC, had been hijacked.
24. The fact that Bush, after being told about the attack on the South Tower, did not act like a commander in chief who was surprised to learn that the United States was suffering the greatest terrorist attack in its history.
25. The fact that Bush and his entourage, including his Secret Service detail, showed no sign of fear that they would be attacked while in Florida, even though at that time they-assuming the truth of the official account-would have known neither how many planes had been hijacked nor what the terrorists' targets were.
26. The multiple denial by Bush administration officials that they had had any idea that planes might be used as weapons in a Terrorist attack against the United States, even though such knowledge was widespread – partly because of warnings the Bush administration itself that terrorists were in fact planning such attacks.
27. The fact that the FBI must have had specific advance knowledge of the attacks, given (a) its confiscation of a film of the attack on the Pentagon within five minutes, (b) its confiscation of student files from Florida flight schools within 18 hours, and (c) the reported testimony of FBI agents (to David Schippers and the New American) That they knew the dates and targets of the New York attacks months in advance.
28. The repeated denial by Bush administration officials that they had received any specific advance knowledge about the attacks of 9/11, contradicting strong evidence to the contrary, including that provided by the purchases of enormous amounts of put options on United Airlines, American Airlines, and Morgan Stanley Dean Witter.
29. The evidence that although Osama bin Laden was officially America's "most wanted" criminal, he was treated by an American surgeon and visited by a CIA agent in an American hospital in Dubai two months prior to 9/11.
30. The evidence that local FBI agents in Minnesota, New York, and Chicago were prevented by FBI headquarters from carrying out investigations that could have uncovered the plot.
31. The harassment and demotion of DIA agent Julie Sirrs after she brought back information about a plan in Afghanistan to assassinate Ahmad Massood.
32. The evidence that the Bush administration had already determined by July of 2001 that it would attack Afghanistan "by the middle of October at the latest," combined with the fact that the attacks of 9/11, by occurring on that date, gave the US military sufficient preparation time to begin its assault on October 7.
33. The evidence that during the "Hunt for Bin Laden" after 9/11, he and his Al Qaeda forces were repeatedly allowed to escape.
34. The evidence that the Bush administration sought in multiple ways to conceal the connections between 9/11 and Pakistan's ISI.
35. The fact that the FBI, the Justice Department, and the Air Force all refused to answer questions about the report that many of the (alleged) hijackers had received training at US flight schools.
36. The multiple reasons to doubt the official conspiracy theory's tale of Arab-Muslim hijackers.
37. The firing and subsequent gagging of FBI whistleblower Sibel Edmonds after she reported that a 9/11-related investigation was being sabotaged by a spy.
38. The fact that while people such as Julie Sirrs and Sibel Edmonds have been punished, there have been no reports of punishment for anyone who acted incompetently or obstructively in relation to 9/11 whether in the FAA, the FBI, the CIA, the DIA, the NSA, the Justice Department, the White House, NORAD, the Pentagon, or the US military more generally.
39. The fact that the Bush administration has not revealed the identities of those who purchased the put options on United Airlines, American Airlines, and Morgan Stanley Dean Witter.
40. The fact that the White House repeatedly obstructed the attempts of the 9/ 11 Commission-as feeble as they appear to have been-to learn how the attacks of 9/11 could have succeeded.
These smoking guns could provide some starting points for a real investigation-if and when one is ever authorized.
These “40 Smoking Guns” were taken from the book “The New Pearl Harbor” by David Ray Griffin, that everybody who believes in a terrorist attack on the US should read.
Amen

Another interesting fact: Most of the foreign insurgents are from Saudi Arabia, not from IRAN. The Government calls them just "AL Qaeda" and insinuates via television that they come from IRAN, the next target that the Republicans and some spineless Democrats have for a war. Actually for World War III, as publicly announced by George W. Bush, because the rest of the world is standing against this Madman who is leading the US in this second unnecessary and absolutely insane war. Like Hitler did with Germany some 60 years ago.
But wait, there is more. The Book "THE NEW PEARL HARBOR" by Professor David Ray Griffin (who has been Professor of Philosophy of Religion at the Claremont School of Theology in California for 30 years and is author and editor of more than 20 books) shows the backgrounds and reasons for 9-11. And why our government is most likely involved in the attack. Here an addendum he added for the second edition, called "40 smoking guns". This book should be read by everyone who has an IQ which enables them to vote for someone other than George W. Bush. They should also watch the movie: "Loose Change 911, 2nd edition" (click this link to watch it for free!)
David Ray Griffin – The New Pearl Harbor
40 Smoking Guns
I have often been asked whether there are any "smoking guns” Pointing to complicity by the Bush administration. This is a question I did not explicitly address in the body of the book. Rather than focusing on those reported events that most strongly suggest such complicity presented a cumulative argument, suggesting that what is most persuasive, assuming the truth of at least a significant portion of the reported evidence, is that so many lines of evidence all seem to point in the same direction….Because this question has come up so often, I will conclude with a list of the reported items that I would so classify. In going back through the book to assemble this list, I was surprised to see how many there are.
1. The failure of standard operating procedures (SOP) to intercept Flight 11.
2. The failure of SOP to intercept Flight 175.
3. The failure of SOP to intercept Flight 77.
4. The fact that the official story as to these failures changed a few days after 9/11.
5. The fact that according to the second version of the official story, the order to scramble jet fighters to intercept Flights 11 and 175 went to Otis Air Force base instead of the nearer base, McGuire.
6. The fact that according to this second version, the order to scramble jet fighters to protect Washington went to Langley Air Force base instead of the nearer base, Andrews.
7. The fact that, even given NORAD'S timeline and the greater distances the pilots had to cover from Otis and Langley, their fighter jets, flying at full speed, should have reached New York and Washington in time to prevent the attacks on the South Tower and the Pentagon.
8. The fact that according to this second version, the fighter jets that were too late to intercept Flights 11 and 175 were not ordered to continue on to Washington, even though it was then known that Flight 77 had bee hijacked and, according to the official story, was headed back toward Washington.
9. Secretary of Transportation Mineta's report of a conversation that may have reflected a stand-down order by Vice President Cheney.
10. The fact that in New York on 9/11, three steel-framed hi buildings, for the first time in history, collapsed because of fires – quite localized fires at that, especially in the South Tower and Building 7.
11. The fact that the South Tower fell first even though, according to the hypothesis that the buildings collapsed because of fire, this tower, having been hit second and having the smaller fire, should not have collapsed first.
12. The multiple types of physical evidence that the Twin Towers and Building 7 collapsed by means of controlled demolition. (Because there are many types of such evidence- - such as the fact that the steel beams and columns were broken into pieces the right size to be loaded onto trucks - this point could have been divided into many smoking guns.)
13. Larry Silverstein's statement that he and the fire department decided to "pull" WTC-7, combined with the evidence that the fire department had prior knowledge of its collapse, despite the lack of any physical evidence indicating imminent collapse.
14. Mayor Giuliani's statement that he knew in advance that the Twin Towers were going to collapse.
15. The quick removal of the steel from all three buildings - especially Building 7, where there would have been no victims - before it could be examined.
16. The fact that photographic evidence shows that the hole created in the Pentagon was much smaller than a hole created by a Boeing 757 would be.
17. The fact that photographs show that there were no remains of a large airliner in front of the crash site, even though, given the small entrance hole, not all of a Boeing 757 could have gone inside.
18. The fact that witnesses also reported seeing no remains of a airliner inside the Pentagon.
19. The fact that the west wing, far from being the most likely part of the Pentagon for terrorists to target, was the least likely, as well as technically difficult to hit.
20. The fact that any non-military plane, not having a transponder sending out a "friendly" signal, would have been automatically shot down by the Pentagon's battery of missiles.
21. The extreme unlikelihood that a hijacked 757 could have flown undetected through American airspace, especially toward the Pentagon, for some 40 minutes.
22. The evidence that the Bush administration lied about not having shot down Flight 93.
23. The fact that President Bush gave the impression upon his arrival at the Sarasota school, even after a telephone conversation with Condoleezza Rice, that he was unaware that two more airliners, beyond the one that had crashed into the North Tower of the WTC, had been hijacked.
24. The fact that Bush, after being told about the attack on the South Tower, did not act like a commander in chief who was surprised to learn that the United States was suffering the greatest terrorist attack in its history.
25. The fact that Bush and his entourage, including his Secret Service detail, showed no sign of fear that they would be attacked while in Florida, even though at that time they-assuming the truth of the official account-would have known neither how many planes had been hijacked nor what the terrorists' targets were.
26. The multiple denial by Bush administration officials that they had had any idea that planes might be used as weapons in a Terrorist attack against the United States, even though such knowledge was widespread – partly because of warnings the Bush administration itself that terrorists were in fact planning such attacks.
27. The fact that the FBI must have had specific advance knowledge of the attacks, given (a) its confiscation of a film of the attack on the Pentagon within five minutes, (b) its confiscation of student files from Florida flight schools within 18 hours, and (c) the reported testimony of FBI agents (to David Schippers and the New American) That they knew the dates and targets of the New York attacks months in advance.
28. The repeated denial by Bush administration officials that they had received any specific advance knowledge about the attacks of 9/11, contradicting strong evidence to the contrary, including that provided by the purchases of enormous amounts of put options on United Airlines, American Airlines, and Morgan Stanley Dean Witter.
29. The evidence that although Osama bin Laden was officially America's "most wanted" criminal, he was treated by an American surgeon and visited by a CIA agent in an American hospital in Dubai two months prior to 9/11.
30. The evidence that local FBI agents in Minnesota, New York, and Chicago were prevented by FBI headquarters from carrying out investigations that could have uncovered the plot.
31. The harassment and demotion of DIA agent Julie Sirrs after she brought back information about a plan in Afghanistan to assassinate Ahmad Massood.
32. The evidence that the Bush administration had already determined by July of 2001 that it would attack Afghanistan "by the middle of October at the latest," combined with the fact that the attacks of 9/11, by occurring on that date, gave the US military sufficient preparation time to begin its assault on October 7.
33. The evidence that during the "Hunt for Bin Laden" after 9/11, he and his Al Qaeda forces were repeatedly allowed to escape.
34. The evidence that the Bush administration sought in multiple ways to conceal the connections between 9/11 and Pakistan's ISI.
35. The fact that the FBI, the Justice Department, and the Air Force all refused to answer questions about the report that many of the (alleged) hijackers had received training at US flight schools.
36. The multiple reasons to doubt the official conspiracy theory's tale of Arab-Muslim hijackers.
37. The firing and subsequent gagging of FBI whistleblower Sibel Edmonds after she reported that a 9/11-related investigation was being sabotaged by a spy.
38. The fact that while people such as Julie Sirrs and Sibel Edmonds have been punished, there have been no reports of punishment for anyone who acted incompetently or obstructively in relation to 9/11 whether in the FAA, the FBI, the CIA, the DIA, the NSA, the Justice Department, the White House, NORAD, the Pentagon, or the US military more generally.
39. The fact that the Bush administration has not revealed the identities of those who purchased the put options on United Airlines, American Airlines, and Morgan Stanley Dean Witter.
40. The fact that the White House repeatedly obstructed the attempts of the 9/ 11 Commission-as feeble as they appear to have been-to learn how the attacks of 9/11 could have succeeded.
These smoking guns could provide some starting points for a real investigation-if and when one is ever authorized.

Quran is a Religion of peace
GOD bless you all. After all of you have hopefully come to the realization that the Islam is actually a religion of peace, I would like to draw your attention to another subject that has not been resolved as of yet. For now I will just answer the most burning Question of Rick Mathes, the prison minister who still believes an Imam thought that Islam is a religion of hate, and I will write more about that subject later. So, here is his question/statement:
Almost every critic attacks the messenger "me" and does^t touch the message. The message is:
"Would you rather have an Allah who says to kill me to go to heaven or a Jesus who says for me to love you because I am going to heaven and He would like you to be with me? "
This is the biggest I LOVE YOU I am capable of extending to my Muslims cousins. This is not a hate article. It is one extended in love with the sword of the Word rather that the sword of cresent.
The problem here is that the message is not attackable, because it is plain wrong and born out of ignorance. "Would you rather have a car that runs on water or a car that runs on white blood cells". Rick Mathes asserts that GOD told the Muslims to kill him and he asks his question based on this false pretense. To answer this question either way means to agree with the false statement first or at the same time. And that is why no one deals with this so called message, because it is already faulty within. The assertion in the question is just wrong. Allah (GOD) is Jesus' father for us Christians. For the Muslims, he is GOD and Jesus is his prophet, as well as Mohammed (who by the way also preached love and peace). For us Christians, Jesus came to this world to bring the message of love, to replace the message of hate in the old testament and die for our sins on the cross. For the Jews he was also just a prophet, not the savior or GOD's son. And if we would follow GOD's word (which automatically includes Jesus' word) as preached to and for us Gentiles by Paul and the Muslims would all follow GOD's word as received by Muhammad, and in the true spirit of the Qur'an, as we Christians would follow the true spirit of the Bible, we would not even argue with each other. The problem is the interpretation of GOD's word on both sides, according to the hidden agenda ON BOTH SIDES!
Allah does not tell the Muslims to kill Christians to go to heaven. By the way: Jihad means "struggle", not "holy war". Currently it is the Christians who are being told by most televangelists who are seemingly in tune with the Government who tell their herd of blindly following sheep that their salvation lies in the killing of Muslims. And that is the problem. The commandments are clear. Don't lie, don't steal, don't kill... and that is what they do or support. And they do it in the name of Jesus who made the commandments even clearer: "Love your neighbor". Why do they spread hate. And they attack us, who spread the Truth as liars who do not preach the word of GOD. Those religious NAZIs should read the Bible, try to understand it and stop collecting Millions for their own personal benefit. I think Rick is on a very different page. He does not spread his so called message out of hate, just out of ignorance. Basically he is trying to spread the message of love, just in a way that makes people hate the Muslim faith. The emails that are being sent out intentionally spread hate. Rick himself, I believe, that he is sincerely trying to preach love. I will try to answer him soon and until then, may GOD bless him.
Amen

Christian Hate: Not a time for Facts and Brains !?!
The Christian right is committed to spread false information to support the “war efforts” of the arms industry – A Moron is not automatically a Patriot
A lost sheep send us a commentary from August 22, 2007 which was seemingly written by the then 76 year old D. James Kennedy, a right wing Christian like Falwell and obviously just as senile. The interesting thing is, that he does exactly what all right wingers seem to do: he keeps repeating false information and lies in the hope that repetition turns them into truth. Sorry. It is not that easy.
Here is his commentary, which was posted to our website http://www.chocr.com/ on September 24, 2007. Having read of Kennedy’s death on September 5, 2007, it may be safely assumed that he did not post it himself. The only signature the poster left was the link to the website http://www.missiongateministry.org/ , seemingly the home of Rick Mathes who in his report ordained a simple inmate of the prison to the role of an Imam. Not being an Imam, the inmate was expectedly helpless in his responses to the false and dumb accusations Mathes made against Islam, and the fascist Christian right had a new hero who had “slain” the Islamic dragon one more time.
Here the commentary by Kennedy which contains Rick Mathes’ fairytale, and some facts which burst the right wing bubble. Please forgive my remarks in the commentary which state the facts in contrast to the delusion of the original writer: Kennedy calls Mathes a Patriot. He is obviously just ignorant. Being dumb is not the same as being a Patriot and Ignorance is not the same as Patriotism. It might be a good description of the right wing though. A Patriot wants something good for his country and would never support a senseless war that kills thousands of Americans for financial gain of a few. Please check everything stated here for truth. Please also include my remarks in your research, so you will see for yourself which game is being played here by the warmongers among the Holy Christian Ignorance of America. They bank on your ignorance and your laziness to check the facts. Please – in the name of GOD – disappoint them.
As a preface to your reading, here Surah 2:62, like all other Surahs mentioned here, in the translation of Khalifa.
Surah 2:62: Surely, those who believe, those who are Jewish, the Christians, and the converts; anyone who (1) believes in GOD, and (2) believes in the Last Day, and (3) leads a righteous life, will receive their recompense from their Lord. They have nothing to fear, nor will they grieve.
So here the message posted to our site. The title is the original Republican slogan and talking point, which is being repeated mindlessly like a religious chant around the country.
Not the Time to Cut and Run
By D. James Kennedy, Ph. D. Christian Post Guest Columnist
Here is a sampling of what the Qur'an teaches, along with the chapter (Surah) and verse in which it is found:
. Muslims must fight until their opponents submit to Islam (Surah 9:29);
Here the Surah 9:29, in the translation of Khalifa, which was – as you can tell - absolutely misquoted by Kennedy. To give a context, I also added the subsequent parts of the Surah up to 9:30, so every reader understands the context of it. It is amazing to me that Muhammad saw himself partially in opposition to the same people we – as a body of Christ and a Church of GOD – face today: the one's who do not believe in and/or do not understand GOD and His word.
Surah 9:31 is a very interesting topic. Mary was brought into the picture in the Middle Ages. Probably because the Statues looked nice. Are we worshipping only one GOD? We, the Christians? The Catholics? I am speaking with GOD. It never crossed my mind to speak to Jesus' mom. Is the Holy Trinity one GOD or did we go Pagan in "making a picture of GOD"? Muhammad's words must also be seen in relation to the cultural background - the tribal system in Mecca and Medina, a very different society than the one existing today, in mostly peaceful coexistence and even allied with Jewish tribes - and also as the law of the desert, that was also written in reaction to certain political incidents. Click here to read the story with Bible quotes (the Bible instructs Christians to kill everyone who works on the sabbath)
9:29 You shall fight back against those who do not believe in GOD, nor in the Last Day, nor do they prohibit what GOD and His messenger have prohibited, nor do they abide by the religion of truth - among those who received the scripture - until they pay the due tax, willingly or unwillingly.
9:30 The Jews said, "Ezra is the son of GOD," while the Christians said, "Jesus is the son of GOD!" These are blasphemies uttered by their mouths. They thus match the blasphemies of those who have disbelieved in the past. GOD condemns them. They have surely deviated.
9:31 They have set up their religious leaders and scholars as lords, instead of GOD. Others deified the Messiah, son of Mary. They were all commanded to worship only one god. There is no god except He. Be He glorified, high above having any partners.
9:32 They want to put out GOD's light with their mouths, but GOD insists upon perfecting His light, in spite of the disbelievers.
9:33 He is the One who sent His messenger with the guidance and the religion of truth, and will make it dominate all religions, in spite of the idol worshipers.
9:34 O you who believe, many religious leaders and preachers take the people's money illicitly, and repel from the path of GOD. Those who hoard the gold and silver, and do not spend them in the cause of GOD, promise them a painful retribution.
9:35 The day will come when their gold and silver will be heated in the fire of Hell, then used to burn their foreheads, their sides, and their backs: "This is what you hoarded for yourselves, so taste what you have hoarded."
. A man may beat his wife (Surah 4:34)
4:34 The men are made responsible for the women, and GOD has endowed them with certain qualities, and made them the bread earners. The righteous women will cheerfully accept this arrangement, since it is GOD's commandment, and honor their husbands during their absence. If you experience rebellion from the women, you shall first talk to them, then (you may use negative incentives like) deserting them in bed, then you may (as a last alternative) beat them. If they obey you, you are not permitted to transgress against them. GOD is Most High, Supreme.
In Christianity the woman did not officially have a soul until recent times, was not allowed in Church and was basically the servant of the man. The punishments of women in so called Christian households were and are visibly similar to the written recommendation in Surah 4:34. No man should ever beat his wife, though.
and have up to four wives at the same time (Surah 4:3);
Here the Surahs 4:1-3, so the context is clear. Seeing the background of the time when the Qur'an was written, polygamy made good sense. As well as the polygamy in biblical times and in the Bible.
4:1 O people, observe your Lord; the One who created you from one being, and created from it its mate, then spread from the two many men and women. You shall regard GOD, by whom you swear, and regard the parents. GOD is watching over you.
4:2 You shall hand over to the orphans their rightful properties. Do not substitute the bad for the good, and do not consume their properties by combining them with yours. This would be a gross injustice.
4:3 If you deem it best for the orphans, you may marry their mothers - you may marry two, three, or four. If you fear lest you become unfair, then you shall be content with only one, or with what you already have. Additionally, you are thus more likely to avoid financial hardship.
. Stealing is punished by the amputation of the hands (Surah 5:38);
5:38 The thief, male or female, you shall mark their hands as a punishment for their crime, and to serve as an example from GOD. GOD is Almighty, Most Wise.
5:39 If one repents after committing this crime, and reforms, GOD redeems him. GOD is Forgiver, Most Merciful.
It is abundantly clear that the thief has the chance to repent before their hands are marked and that they can avoid this measure just by repenting. Muhammad has been very forgiving during his time, and refused to kill or have opponents killed. Much to the dismay of people of his and other religions surrounding him. The following claim goes back to an incident when Muhammad was supposed to be killed by pagan adversaries.
. Resisting Islam is punishable by death, crucifixion, amputation, or imprisonment (Surah 5:33).
5:33 The just retribution for those who fight GOD and His messenger, and commit horrendous crimes, is to be killed, or crucified, or to have their hands and feet cut off on alternate sides, or to be banished from the land. This is to humiliate them in this life, then they suffer a far worse retribution in the Hereafter.
5:34 Exempted are those who repent before you overcome them. You should know that GOD is Forgiver, Most Merciful.
Again, the enemy can repent, even after commit horrendous crimes against Muhammad's own people, and may be forgiven without punishment. Are we Christians this merciful? Do we think our GOD is this merciful? I know, personally I think, GOD is this merciful. Others obviously want to wage war against those who did not commit any crimes. And this merciful description of GOD leads Kennedy to the conclusion:
This is hardly what you would call a religion of peace!
Ah...
As early as the seventh century, Muslim forces led campaigns to spread Islam across the Middle East. At one time the Islamic Empire eclipsed that of the Roman Empire. However, attempts by Muslim forces to push their way into Christian Europe were stymied by the famous 732 a.d. Battle of Tours in France. Charles Martel, popularly known as "Charles the Hammer," led this battle against the Muslim armies and is largely credited for preventing Europe from succumbing to Islam's control. Today, militant Islamists are back and willing to lay down their lives to destroy both Europe and America. The president of Iran has promised that, "The wave of the Islamic revolution will soon reach the entire world." Now is not the time to cut and run. Now is not the time for retreat. We need patriots and Christians like "Charles the Hammer," to rise up and oppose those who would destroy this country.
The president of Iran has been deeply insulted in recent days. I don't want to defend him and his actions and remarks, I just think that you should respect everyone as a human being. The deeper goal is to actually start a new war against Iran to funnel more money from the US social security funds into the pockets of the arms industry, not any feigned nuclear concerns. And the wave of the Crusades and Conquests in GOD's name was more than violent. If the Islamic revolution will be violent is really an interesting question. Is our great country really afraid of a few sheiks in the desert? Why did Bush try to hand over six of our ports to the United Arab Emirates (where two of the 9-11 Terrorists came from - the rest came from Saudi Arabia, Bush's closest and probably only friend in the world), if the countries in that part of the world are so dangerous? Is he repaying a 9-11 favor to the Saudis and the United Arab Emirates? Or why are we letting Osama go, don't deal with North Korea and many others, and just focus on the "oily" part of the world? When will we attack Venezuela and Mexico?
The fact of the Battle of Tours is true. 1,500 casualties on the side of the Europeans and about 10,000 on the side of the Muslims. The only part of western Europe that was actually held by the Muslims was Spain. And there they lived in peaceful coexistence with Christians for many centuries. A few religious fanatics tried successfully to provoke the Muslims into making them Martyrs, but the regular folk got along well and enjoyed the cultural exchange. Please follow this link to compare the battle of Tours with the slaughter of the crusades, when Europeans went to plunder, rape and ravish the Arab world to enrich themselves with Gold. The crusades. We should not forget the "conquest" of the Inca Empire by the Spanish Conquistadores who - in the name of GOD - took care of the Extinction of an entire culture and people. Did I mention the conquest of the United States by the Europeans in the name of GOD, who lied to, stole from and killed as many of the native Americans as they could. And again: ignorance can not substitute facts of history.
Rick Mathes, chairman of Mission Gate Prison Ministry in Missouri is a real Christian patriot standing up for the truth. Several years ago Mathes participated in a training session in which Catholic, Protestant, and Muslim clerics explained their respective beliefs to inmates.
Afterwards, during a question and answer period, Mathes asked the Muslim imam this question: "I understand that most imams and clerics of the Islamic faith have declared a holy jihad (that is a holy war) against the infidels of the world-and that by killing an infidel, which is a command to all Muslims, they are assured of a place in heaven. If that's the case, can you give me the definition of an 'infidel'?" As Mathes recounts, the imam answered immediately: "A non-believer."
It is amazing that the question contains several questions which are implied to be answered positively without actually asking them. By the way, I doubt that there is a jihad against infidels and that killing an infidel gets anyone a place in heaven. I think it is more a retaliation to what is being done to them by so called Christians who do not follow the Bible, any commandments and are only living for their greed, and as a retaliation by what we, the US are doing to them, their countries and their families. If the tables were turned we would fight them with all we have on our soil. And rightfully so. This would be self defense. In addition the question is basically only phrased by an idiot to trick an idiot. I can't imagine an Imam falling for this kind of cheap rhetoric. A member of my Church would definitely not fall for that sheepish question.
"So, let me make sure I have this straight," Mathes said. "All followers of Allah have been commanded to kill everyone who is not of your faith, so that they can go to Heaven. Is that correct?" The imam sheepishly answered: "Yes."
There was no Imam present.
Mathes, not surprisingly, told the imam he had a problem with being his friend when he, his fellow clerics and followers, wanted to kill him.
"Would you rather have your Allah, who tells you to kill me in order for you to go to Heaven, or my Jesus, who tells me to love you because I am going to Heaven, and He wants you to be there with me?" Mathes asked.
The imam offered no answer.
And again: Rick Mathes ordained in his report a simple inmate of the prison to the role of an Imam. Not being an Imam, the inmate was expectedly helpless in his responses to the false and dumb accusations Mathes made against Islam.
There needs to be more champions like Mathes who are willing to stand against those who spread deceptive teachings. I believe such patriots exist. I also believe that America is not going to cut and run. I believe that we are going to take our stand and defeat the plans of the unrighteous. The future of our nation depends on it.
Unfortunately they are defending the plans of the unrighteous. And I agree that the future of our country depends on locating the unrighteous. That is why GOD founded our Church, the Church of Christian Reformation so we can help these warmongers to find the truth. And here the link to the - I presume - sender of this misguided commentary. At least it was left by the person who posted the message: www.MissionGateMinistry.org
Like Falwell, D. James Kennedy considers the teaching of GOD's true word as deceptive. Understanding GOD's word obviously gets harder the less brains people have to involve in it. It helps if someone is able to read and understand the message of Jesus, the commandments and the word of Paul. It is hard to understand that someone can not understand it. But Facts and brains, as well as compassion are obviously not spread widely on the right wing. If you have to tell lies to be considered a Patriot, GOD has really lost his standing and the people their mind.
Honestly, as much as I appreciate that so many people are reading my sermons and teachings, I am getting tired of defending the Islam against the Right Wing Christian Fascists. I am not a Muslim, I am a Christian who follows GOD's message. My compassion for people and my disgust for lies and deception force me to answer all the stupid and false accusations made against the Islam. So I have to defend a Religion I respect, but of which I am not a member. I would rather focus on Christian topics and questions than on moronic and deceptive writings. But maybe that is why GOD called me in the first place. To tell the Falwell-Christians that they are blaspheming and are not following the words of GOD.
All these hate attacks on Muslims and their faith make sure that we Americans, who really want everything good for our country (they call us Patriots) are busy fighting smoke screens instead of focusing on the real and important issues like rigged elections in our country, the real roots of 9-11, illegal occupation of foreign countries which all happened without any regards of GOD's word and many other issues more.
Amen
A lost sheep send us a commentary from August 22, 2007 which was seemingly written by the then 76 year old D. James Kennedy, a right wing Christian like Falwell and obviously just as senile. The interesting thing is, that he does exactly what all right wingers seem to do: he keeps repeating false information and lies in the hope that repetition turns them into truth. Sorry. It is not that easy.
Here is his commentary, which was posted to our website http://www.chocr.com/ on September 24, 2007. Having read of Kennedy’s death on September 5, 2007, it may be safely assumed that he did not post it himself. The only signature the poster left was the link to the website http://www.missiongateministry.org/ , seemingly the home of Rick Mathes who in his report ordained a simple inmate of the prison to the role of an Imam. Not being an Imam, the inmate was expectedly helpless in his responses to the false and dumb accusations Mathes made against Islam, and the fascist Christian right had a new hero who had “slain” the Islamic dragon one more time.
Here the commentary by Kennedy which contains Rick Mathes’ fairytale, and some facts which burst the right wing bubble. Please forgive my remarks in the commentary which state the facts in contrast to the delusion of the original writer: Kennedy calls Mathes a Patriot. He is obviously just ignorant. Being dumb is not the same as being a Patriot and Ignorance is not the same as Patriotism. It might be a good description of the right wing though. A Patriot wants something good for his country and would never support a senseless war that kills thousands of Americans for financial gain of a few. Please check everything stated here for truth. Please also include my remarks in your research, so you will see for yourself which game is being played here by the warmongers among the Holy Christian Ignorance of America. They bank on your ignorance and your laziness to check the facts. Please – in the name of GOD – disappoint them.
As a preface to your reading, here Surah 2:62, like all other Surahs mentioned here, in the translation of Khalifa.
Surah 2:62: Surely, those who believe, those who are Jewish, the Christians, and the converts; anyone who (1) believes in GOD, and (2) believes in the Last Day, and (3) leads a righteous life, will receive their recompense from their Lord. They have nothing to fear, nor will they grieve.
So here the message posted to our site. The title is the original Republican slogan and talking point, which is being repeated mindlessly like a religious chant around the country.
Not the Time to Cut and Run
By D. James Kennedy, Ph. D. Christian Post Guest Columnist
Here is a sampling of what the Qur'an teaches, along with the chapter (Surah) and verse in which it is found:
. Muslims must fight until their opponents submit to Islam (Surah 9:29);
Here the Surah 9:29, in the translation of Khalifa, which was – as you can tell - absolutely misquoted by Kennedy. To give a context, I also added the subsequent parts of the Surah up to 9:30, so every reader understands the context of it. It is amazing to me that Muhammad saw himself partially in opposition to the same people we – as a body of Christ and a Church of GOD – face today: the one's who do not believe in and/or do not understand GOD and His word.
Surah 9:31 is a very interesting topic. Mary was brought into the picture in the Middle Ages. Probably because the Statues looked nice. Are we worshipping only one GOD? We, the Christians? The Catholics? I am speaking with GOD. It never crossed my mind to speak to Jesus' mom. Is the Holy Trinity one GOD or did we go Pagan in "making a picture of GOD"? Muhammad's words must also be seen in relation to the cultural background - the tribal system in Mecca and Medina, a very different society than the one existing today, in mostly peaceful coexistence and even allied with Jewish tribes - and also as the law of the desert, that was also written in reaction to certain political incidents. Click here to read the story with Bible quotes (the Bible instructs Christians to kill everyone who works on the sabbath)
9:29 You shall fight back against those who do not believe in GOD, nor in the Last Day, nor do they prohibit what GOD and His messenger have prohibited, nor do they abide by the religion of truth - among those who received the scripture - until they pay the due tax, willingly or unwillingly.
9:30 The Jews said, "Ezra is the son of GOD," while the Christians said, "Jesus is the son of GOD!" These are blasphemies uttered by their mouths. They thus match the blasphemies of those who have disbelieved in the past. GOD condemns them. They have surely deviated.
9:31 They have set up their religious leaders and scholars as lords, instead of GOD. Others deified the Messiah, son of Mary. They were all commanded to worship only one god. There is no god except He. Be He glorified, high above having any partners.
9:32 They want to put out GOD's light with their mouths, but GOD insists upon perfecting His light, in spite of the disbelievers.
9:33 He is the One who sent His messenger with the guidance and the religion of truth, and will make it dominate all religions, in spite of the idol worshipers.
9:34 O you who believe, many religious leaders and preachers take the people's money illicitly, and repel from the path of GOD. Those who hoard the gold and silver, and do not spend them in the cause of GOD, promise them a painful retribution.
9:35 The day will come when their gold and silver will be heated in the fire of Hell, then used to burn their foreheads, their sides, and their backs: "This is what you hoarded for yourselves, so taste what you have hoarded."
. A man may beat his wife (Surah 4:34)
4:34 The men are made responsible for the women, and GOD has endowed them with certain qualities, and made them the bread earners. The righteous women will cheerfully accept this arrangement, since it is GOD's commandment, and honor their husbands during their absence. If you experience rebellion from the women, you shall first talk to them, then (you may use negative incentives like) deserting them in bed, then you may (as a last alternative) beat them. If they obey you, you are not permitted to transgress against them. GOD is Most High, Supreme.
In Christianity the woman did not officially have a soul until recent times, was not allowed in Church and was basically the servant of the man. The punishments of women in so called Christian households were and are visibly similar to the written recommendation in Surah 4:34. No man should ever beat his wife, though.
and have up to four wives at the same time (Surah 4:3);
Here the Surahs 4:1-3, so the context is clear. Seeing the background of the time when the Qur'an was written, polygamy made good sense. As well as the polygamy in biblical times and in the Bible.
4:1 O people, observe your Lord; the One who created you from one being, and created from it its mate, then spread from the two many men and women. You shall regard GOD, by whom you swear, and regard the parents. GOD is watching over you.
4:2 You shall hand over to the orphans their rightful properties. Do not substitute the bad for the good, and do not consume their properties by combining them with yours. This would be a gross injustice.
4:3 If you deem it best for the orphans, you may marry their mothers - you may marry two, three, or four. If you fear lest you become unfair, then you shall be content with only one, or with what you already have. Additionally, you are thus more likely to avoid financial hardship.
. Stealing is punished by the amputation of the hands (Surah 5:38);
5:38 The thief, male or female, you shall mark their hands as a punishment for their crime, and to serve as an example from GOD. GOD is Almighty, Most Wise.
5:39 If one repents after committing this crime, and reforms, GOD redeems him. GOD is Forgiver, Most Merciful.
It is abundantly clear that the thief has the chance to repent before their hands are marked and that they can avoid this measure just by repenting. Muhammad has been very forgiving during his time, and refused to kill or have opponents killed. Much to the dismay of people of his and other religions surrounding him. The following claim goes back to an incident when Muhammad was supposed to be killed by pagan adversaries.
. Resisting Islam is punishable by death, crucifixion, amputation, or imprisonment (Surah 5:33).
5:33 The just retribution for those who fight GOD and His messenger, and commit horrendous crimes, is to be killed, or crucified, or to have their hands and feet cut off on alternate sides, or to be banished from the land. This is to humiliate them in this life, then they suffer a far worse retribution in the Hereafter.
5:34 Exempted are those who repent before you overcome them. You should know that GOD is Forgiver, Most Merciful.
Again, the enemy can repent, even after commit horrendous crimes against Muhammad's own people, and may be forgiven without punishment. Are we Christians this merciful? Do we think our GOD is this merciful? I know, personally I think, GOD is this merciful. Others obviously want to wage war against those who did not commit any crimes. And this merciful description of GOD leads Kennedy to the conclusion:
This is hardly what you would call a religion of peace!
Ah...
As early as the seventh century, Muslim forces led campaigns to spread Islam across the Middle East. At one time the Islamic Empire eclipsed that of the Roman Empire. However, attempts by Muslim forces to push their way into Christian Europe were stymied by the famous 732 a.d. Battle of Tours in France. Charles Martel, popularly known as "Charles the Hammer," led this battle against the Muslim armies and is largely credited for preventing Europe from succumbing to Islam's control. Today, militant Islamists are back and willing to lay down their lives to destroy both Europe and America. The president of Iran has promised that, "The wave of the Islamic revolution will soon reach the entire world." Now is not the time to cut and run. Now is not the time for retreat. We need patriots and Christians like "Charles the Hammer," to rise up and oppose those who would destroy this country.
The president of Iran has been deeply insulted in recent days. I don't want to defend him and his actions and remarks, I just think that you should respect everyone as a human being. The deeper goal is to actually start a new war against Iran to funnel more money from the US social security funds into the pockets of the arms industry, not any feigned nuclear concerns. And the wave of the Crusades and Conquests in GOD's name was more than violent. If the Islamic revolution will be violent is really an interesting question. Is our great country really afraid of a few sheiks in the desert? Why did Bush try to hand over six of our ports to the United Arab Emirates (where two of the 9-11 Terrorists came from - the rest came from Saudi Arabia, Bush's closest and probably only friend in the world), if the countries in that part of the world are so dangerous? Is he repaying a 9-11 favor to the Saudis and the United Arab Emirates? Or why are we letting Osama go, don't deal with North Korea and many others, and just focus on the "oily" part of the world? When will we attack Venezuela and Mexico?
The fact of the Battle of Tours is true. 1,500 casualties on the side of the Europeans and about 10,000 on the side of the Muslims. The only part of western Europe that was actually held by the Muslims was Spain. And there they lived in peaceful coexistence with Christians for many centuries. A few religious fanatics tried successfully to provoke the Muslims into making them Martyrs, but the regular folk got along well and enjoyed the cultural exchange. Please follow this link to compare the battle of Tours with the slaughter of the crusades, when Europeans went to plunder, rape and ravish the Arab world to enrich themselves with Gold. The crusades. We should not forget the "conquest" of the Inca Empire by the Spanish Conquistadores who - in the name of GOD - took care of the Extinction of an entire culture and people. Did I mention the conquest of the United States by the Europeans in the name of GOD, who lied to, stole from and killed as many of the native Americans as they could. And again: ignorance can not substitute facts of history.
Rick Mathes, chairman of Mission Gate Prison Ministry in Missouri is a real Christian patriot standing up for the truth. Several years ago Mathes participated in a training session in which Catholic, Protestant, and Muslim clerics explained their respective beliefs to inmates.
Afterwards, during a question and answer period, Mathes asked the Muslim imam this question: "I understand that most imams and clerics of the Islamic faith have declared a holy jihad (that is a holy war) against the infidels of the world-and that by killing an infidel, which is a command to all Muslims, they are assured of a place in heaven. If that's the case, can you give me the definition of an 'infidel'?" As Mathes recounts, the imam answered immediately: "A non-believer."
It is amazing that the question contains several questions which are implied to be answered positively without actually asking them. By the way, I doubt that there is a jihad against infidels and that killing an infidel gets anyone a place in heaven. I think it is more a retaliation to what is being done to them by so called Christians who do not follow the Bible, any commandments and are only living for their greed, and as a retaliation by what we, the US are doing to them, their countries and their families. If the tables were turned we would fight them with all we have on our soil. And rightfully so. This would be self defense. In addition the question is basically only phrased by an idiot to trick an idiot. I can't imagine an Imam falling for this kind of cheap rhetoric. A member of my Church would definitely not fall for that sheepish question.
"So, let me make sure I have this straight," Mathes said. "All followers of Allah have been commanded to kill everyone who is not of your faith, so that they can go to Heaven. Is that correct?" The imam sheepishly answered: "Yes."
There was no Imam present.
Mathes, not surprisingly, told the imam he had a problem with being his friend when he, his fellow clerics and followers, wanted to kill him.
"Would you rather have your Allah, who tells you to kill me in order for you to go to Heaven, or my Jesus, who tells me to love you because I am going to Heaven, and He wants you to be there with me?" Mathes asked.
The imam offered no answer.
And again: Rick Mathes ordained in his report a simple inmate of the prison to the role of an Imam. Not being an Imam, the inmate was expectedly helpless in his responses to the false and dumb accusations Mathes made against Islam.
There needs to be more champions like Mathes who are willing to stand against those who spread deceptive teachings. I believe such patriots exist. I also believe that America is not going to cut and run. I believe that we are going to take our stand and defeat the plans of the unrighteous. The future of our nation depends on it.

GOD and Al-lah are on the case...
Below you find an article dating from August 15th, which shows that GOD is on the subject too (see my commentary from August 3rd below this one)! A click on the headline leads you to the full length original article on the web site of Fox News where you will also find the right wing commentaries of the usual religious fascists which I omitted here for reasons of irrelevance and their insult to the most basic intelligence and the word of GOD alike. We believe in Compassion, Peace, Love and GOD's Commandments to the world. We are against violence, hypocrites, prejudice and lies. Many of our fellow Americans seemingly forgot all this to blindly serve their religious idols with their phony messages and speeches (see the Trinity Broadcasting Network) who only have one goal: to get to your money and to brainwash any compassion or sound thought out of your mind, so you become their blind follower. Whom you actually follow is clear when you look whom they support. An administration that lives on lies and deceit. And in the end it will surely cost you more that just money. It has already cost the lives of too many of our soldiers (By the way: We support our Troops! We are just against the illegal war started by a president who was not even elected) and of tens of thousands of civilians. GOD is trying to save you from these mistakes, that is why you are reading these lines right now. Keep reading and judge for yourself. I am very surprised that it is the Roman Catholic Church that recently makes my case, even though I am closer to Martin Luther's reforming spirit than to the pope. But unlike the Pseudo-Christian Churches and preachers in the US, the Pope agrees - like me - that Evolution is a fact that does not exclude GOD. GOD created the Heavens and the Earth. He could have done it a few thousand years ago (why should he anyway, when it was already there for Millions of years???), but he obviously did not do it 5,000 or 6,000 years ago (this is the story according to the Jewish calendar and the Old Testament which is basically the history of the Jews) but Millions of years ago. And he created everything else through Evolution - which definitely took longer than several thousand years and is not remotely finished. Some brains still seem to be in the beginning stages... And I don't think that neither the History of the Jews or the Jewish calendar overrules the way GOD actually did it. But back to the way GOD spreads the right thoughts at the right time. GOD Bless America!
Roman Catholic Bishop Wants Everyone to Call God 'Allah'
Wednesday, August 15, 2007
A proposal by a Roman Catholic bishop in the Netherlands that people of all faiths refer to God as "Allah" is not sitting well with the Catholic community. Bishop Martinus Muskens, an outgoing bishop who is retiring in a few weeks from the southern diocese of Breda, said God doesn't care what he is called.
"Allah is a very beautiful word for God. Shouldn't we all say that from now on we will name God Allah? ... What does God care what we call him? It is our problem," Muskens told Dutch television. Ibrahim Hooper, a spokesman for the Council on American-Islamic Relations, a Washington, D.C.-based Islamic civil liberties and advocacy group, backs the idea as a way to help interfaith understanding. "It reinforces the fact that Muslims, Christians and Jews all worship the same God," Hooper told FOXNews.com. "I don't think the name is as important as the belief in God and following God's moral principles. I think that's true for all faiths." Christians who are Arabic speakers speak of Allah when they speak of God, Hooper added.
The Council of Islamic Organizations of Greater Chicago supports the idea. “I think it will open up doors,” said Janaan Hashim, a spokeswoman for the group representing more than 400,000 Muslim Americans in the Chicago area. “Language is a man-made limitation. I think what God cares about is how we fulfill our purpose in life.” The nation’s largest Catholic civil rights group says Catholics won't get behind the proposal.
Muskens spent eight years in Indonesia, where he said priests used the word "Allah" during Mass. Muskens also has drawn attention for other ideas such as encouraging the hungry to steal bread and offering condoms to combat HIV and AIDS.FOXNews.com's Melissa Drosjack and The Associated Press contributed to this report.
I don't think we should call GOD Al-lah. But I absolutely agree that this is an important thought in these times, where hate and ignorance rules over the word of GOD and outweighs the truth in this world. Islam was born from Judaism and Christianity and Al-lah is GOD. So the message of hate that is being sent from both sides - the extremists of Islam as well as the religious fascists here - has a purpose for them, not for GOD. The same Christians that are judging the Islamic Terrorists are trying to create little Christian suicide bombers in their Jesus camps. GOD does not want Terror! GOD wants Peace and Love. That is why he sent Jesus! To change the message of hate and war, an eye for an eye, into Love and "turn the other cheek". Please listen to the words of the false Prophets in your life and compare them to the facts and to GOD's word! By the way: I also agree with Muskens' encouraging the hungry to steal bread and offering condoms to combat HIV and AIDS!

Jesus Christ or Allah?
Hate mail distracts from illegal occupation of Iraq and other real issues
This is a brief commentary about a hate email that is being sent from very coldly calculating people to many ignorant people who actually think they are doing the world a service in spreading a warning.
The real goal of the initial sender is to distract as many people as possible from the real issues like the illegal war and occupation that is going on, that Terrorists are only mentioned close to elections (and only spring in action when asked to by the right people in power), that most of the "insurgents" in Iraq are from Saudi Arabia (Bush's only friends in this world) and not from other countries like Iran, that 1 Million valid votes for a Democratic president were not counted due to illegal Republican intervention, that the Katrina victims are still in peril (but most of them are black, so the Government does not really care) and many more issues - too many to mention here.
Illegal Immigration is another one of the “pressing Subjects” that suddenly arose - just in time to distract from all this and the illegal occupation of a foreign, sovereign country with the only goal to line the pockets of the power elite of the US. But here is another issue: false information is spread about a religion and the believers in this religion. Here the chain hate mail in all it’s glory:
Jesus Christ or Allah?
This is a true story and the author, Rick Mathes, is a well-known leader in prison ministry. The man who walks with God always gets to his destination. If you have a pulse you have a purpose.(IMPORTANT TO READ!) The Muslim religion is the fastest growing religion per capita in the United States, especially in the minority races!!!
Allah or The Lord Jesus Christ? . By Rick Mathes
Last month I attended my annual training session that's required for maintaining my state prison security clearance. During the training session there was a presentation by three speakers representing the Roman Catholic, Protestant and Muslim faiths, who explained each of their beliefs.I was particularly interested in what the Islamic Imam had to say. The Imam gave a great presentation of the basics of Islam, complete with a video.After the presentations, time was provided for questions and answers.
When it was my turn, I directed my question to the Imam and asked: "Please, correct me if I'm wrong, but I understand that most Imams and clerics of Islam have declared a holy jihad [Holy war] against the infidels of the world and, that by killing an infidel, (which is a command to all Muslims) they are assured of a place in heaven. If that's the case, can you give me the definition of an infidel?"
There was no disagreement with my statements and, without hesitation, he replied, "Non-believers!"
I responded, "So, let me make sure I have this straight. All followers of Allah have been commanded to kill everyone who is not of your faith so they can have a place in heaven. Is that correct?"
The expression on his face changed from one of authority and command to that of "a little boy who had just been caught with his hand in the cookie jar."
He sheepishly replied, "Yes."
I then stated, "Well, sir, I have a real problem trying to imagine Pope John Paul commanding all Catholics to kill those of your faith or Dr. Stanley ordering all Protestants to do the same in order to guarantee them a place in heaven!"
The Imam was speechless! I continued, "I also have problem with being your 'friend' when you and your brother clerics are telling your followers to kill me! Let me ask you a question. Would you rather have your Allah, who tells you to kill me in order for you to go to heaven, or my Jesus who tells me to love you because I am going to heaven and He wants you to be there with me?"
You could have heard a pin drop as the Imam hung his head in shame. Needless to say, the organizers and/or promoters of the 'Diversification' training seminar were not happy with Rick's way of dealing with the Islamic Imam and exposing the truth about the Muslims' beliefs.
In twenty years there will be enough Muslim voters in the U.S. To elect the President! I think everyone in the U.S. should be required to read this, but with the Liberal justice system, liberal media and the ACLU, there is no way this will be widely publicized, unless each of us send it on! This is your chance to make a difference...Please pass this on to all your e-mail contacts
And here my answer to the addressees on the mailing list:
Here some info from "Break the chain" and Snopes.com http://snopes.com/politics/religion/allah.asp. And may God bless you all!
The veracity of the claims made in it is the author's to prove. Unfortunately, Rick Mathes told BreakTheChain.org that he will not provide further details because, in his words, "I fear retribution - I have a 20 year prison ministry to protect."
Third-party accounts of the events in question paint a significantly different picture than the one offered by Mathes. Tim Kniest, spokesman for the Missouri Department of Corrections, told the Lee news service that the training session in question was for prison volunteers and took place in a corrections facility in Fulton, MO. However, according to Kniest, prison officials' recollection of events that day differ from Mathes' in several aspects:
Religious leaders representing faiths followed by current inmates were invited to present.
The presenter on Islam was not an Imam, but rather a Muslim inmate who was pressed into presenting after no Imam could be arranged.
Prison officials confirm that the Muslim inmate was asked a few questions that he was unable to answer, but none along the lines of those suggested by Mr. Mathes.
This essay falls short of being the proof that Islam's leaders cannot deny the violent nature of their own religion that many would have it be. Since both sides of the argument have recognized that the person Mathes was questioning was not an Islamic official nor a recognized expert in the religion, his actions should not be considered indicative of all Muslims. Break this chain.
If one is willing to ignore history, context, and actual practice when quoting scripture and other religious texts, followers of just about any religion can be painted as uniformly fanatic and intolerant. Consider the following recasting of the piece quoted above:
The minister gave a great presentation of the basics of Christianity, complete with a video. After the presentations time was provided for questions and answers.
When it was my turn I directed my question to the minister and asked: "Please, correct me if I'm wrong, but I understand that in Exodus 35:2 the Bible instructs Christians to kill everyone who works on the sabbath: 'Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day there shall be to you an holy day, a sabbath of rest to the Lord: whosoever doeth work therein shall be put to death.'"
There was no disagreement with my statement.
I responded, "So, let me make sure I have this straight. God has commanded Christians to kill everyone who works on Sunday, even Muslims and other non-Christians?"
The expression on his face changed from one of authority and command to that of a little boy who had just gotten caught with his hand in the cookie jar.
He sheepishly replied, "Yes."
I then said, "Well, sir, I have a real problem trying to imagine the Prophet Muhammad commanding all Muslims to kill those of your faith for not observing the Muslim sabbath."The minister was speechless. I continued, "I also have problem with your Bible commanding all Christians to stone to death anyone who criticizes your God, as detailed in Leviticus 24:16.
Let me ask you a question . . . would you rather have your God who tell[s] you to kill me in order to go to heaven or my Allah who tells me to love you because I am going to heaven and wants you to be with me?"You could have heard a pin drop as the minister hung his head in shame.
I know you are honest and will forward this to the same people who received the original from you. Thanks, God bless you and Amen.
Let us take a look at the goal of the email: The Muslim religion is the fastest growing religion per capita in the United States, especially in the minority races!!! This sentence alone already shows why it was written. Hate against "minority races". The KKK could not have done a better job. Hitler set the stage in a similar manner against the Jews that he killed. And I know that the people who send this mail to other people are Christians. But how does this hate work in accord with the word of GOD. And I mean the commandments 'You shall not bear false witness against thy neighbor" and "Love your enemies and Pray for those who persecute you" and the teachings of Paul. The Old Testament is the history of the Jews, nice to read but not really our business. It is sad and amazing at the same time how ignorant and eager some people are to spread lies and deception for people who really mean serious harm to their fellow humans. By the way: the Question Jesus Christ or Allah is not really a valid question. Allah and GOD are the same. GOD tells us there is only one GOD and so does the Qur'an which is based on the Jewish faith as well as on Christianity. It is the same GOD we are talking about. Al-llah is GOD and GOD is Al-llah.
This is a brief commentary about a hate email that is being sent from very coldly calculating people to many ignorant people who actually think they are doing the world a service in spreading a warning.
The real goal of the initial sender is to distract as many people as possible from the real issues like the illegal war and occupation that is going on, that Terrorists are only mentioned close to elections (and only spring in action when asked to by the right people in power), that most of the "insurgents" in Iraq are from Saudi Arabia (Bush's only friends in this world) and not from other countries like Iran, that 1 Million valid votes for a Democratic president were not counted due to illegal Republican intervention, that the Katrina victims are still in peril (but most of them are black, so the Government does not really care) and many more issues - too many to mention here.
Illegal Immigration is another one of the “pressing Subjects” that suddenly arose - just in time to distract from all this and the illegal occupation of a foreign, sovereign country with the only goal to line the pockets of the power elite of the US. But here is another issue: false information is spread about a religion and the believers in this religion. Here the chain hate mail in all it’s glory:
Jesus Christ or Allah?
This is a true story and the author, Rick Mathes, is a well-known leader in prison ministry. The man who walks with God always gets to his destination. If you have a pulse you have a purpose.(IMPORTANT TO READ!) The Muslim religion is the fastest growing religion per capita in the United States, especially in the minority races!!!
Allah or The Lord Jesus Christ? . By Rick Mathes
Last month I attended my annual training session that's required for maintaining my state prison security clearance. During the training session there was a presentation by three speakers representing the Roman Catholic, Protestant and Muslim faiths, who explained each of their beliefs.I was particularly interested in what the Islamic Imam had to say. The Imam gave a great presentation of the basics of Islam, complete with a video.After the presentations, time was provided for questions and answers.
When it was my turn, I directed my question to the Imam and asked: "Please, correct me if I'm wrong, but I understand that most Imams and clerics of Islam have declared a holy jihad [Holy war] against the infidels of the world and, that by killing an infidel, (which is a command to all Muslims) they are assured of a place in heaven. If that's the case, can you give me the definition of an infidel?"
There was no disagreement with my statements and, without hesitation, he replied, "Non-believers!"
I responded, "So, let me make sure I have this straight. All followers of Allah have been commanded to kill everyone who is not of your faith so they can have a place in heaven. Is that correct?"
The expression on his face changed from one of authority and command to that of "a little boy who had just been caught with his hand in the cookie jar."
He sheepishly replied, "Yes."
I then stated, "Well, sir, I have a real problem trying to imagine Pope John Paul commanding all Catholics to kill those of your faith or Dr. Stanley ordering all Protestants to do the same in order to guarantee them a place in heaven!"
The Imam was speechless! I continued, "I also have problem with being your 'friend' when you and your brother clerics are telling your followers to kill me! Let me ask you a question. Would you rather have your Allah, who tells you to kill me in order for you to go to heaven, or my Jesus who tells me to love you because I am going to heaven and He wants you to be there with me?"
You could have heard a pin drop as the Imam hung his head in shame. Needless to say, the organizers and/or promoters of the 'Diversification' training seminar were not happy with Rick's way of dealing with the Islamic Imam and exposing the truth about the Muslims' beliefs.
In twenty years there will be enough Muslim voters in the U.S. To elect the President! I think everyone in the U.S. should be required to read this, but with the Liberal justice system, liberal media and the ACLU, there is no way this will be widely publicized, unless each of us send it on! This is your chance to make a difference...Please pass this on to all your e-mail contacts
And here my answer to the addressees on the mailing list:
Here some info from "Break the chain" and Snopes.com http://snopes.com/politics/religion/allah.asp. And may God bless you all!
The veracity of the claims made in it is the author's to prove. Unfortunately, Rick Mathes told BreakTheChain.org that he will not provide further details because, in his words, "I fear retribution - I have a 20 year prison ministry to protect."
Third-party accounts of the events in question paint a significantly different picture than the one offered by Mathes. Tim Kniest, spokesman for the Missouri Department of Corrections, told the Lee news service that the training session in question was for prison volunteers and took place in a corrections facility in Fulton, MO. However, according to Kniest, prison officials' recollection of events that day differ from Mathes' in several aspects:
Religious leaders representing faiths followed by current inmates were invited to present.
The presenter on Islam was not an Imam, but rather a Muslim inmate who was pressed into presenting after no Imam could be arranged.
Prison officials confirm that the Muslim inmate was asked a few questions that he was unable to answer, but none along the lines of those suggested by Mr. Mathes.
This essay falls short of being the proof that Islam's leaders cannot deny the violent nature of their own religion that many would have it be. Since both sides of the argument have recognized that the person Mathes was questioning was not an Islamic official nor a recognized expert in the religion, his actions should not be considered indicative of all Muslims. Break this chain.
If one is willing to ignore history, context, and actual practice when quoting scripture and other religious texts, followers of just about any religion can be painted as uniformly fanatic and intolerant. Consider the following recasting of the piece quoted above:
The minister gave a great presentation of the basics of Christianity, complete with a video. After the presentations time was provided for questions and answers.
When it was my turn I directed my question to the minister and asked: "Please, correct me if I'm wrong, but I understand that in Exodus 35:2 the Bible instructs Christians to kill everyone who works on the sabbath: 'Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day there shall be to you an holy day, a sabbath of rest to the Lord: whosoever doeth work therein shall be put to death.'"
There was no disagreement with my statement.
I responded, "So, let me make sure I have this straight. God has commanded Christians to kill everyone who works on Sunday, even Muslims and other non-Christians?"
The expression on his face changed from one of authority and command to that of a little boy who had just gotten caught with his hand in the cookie jar.
He sheepishly replied, "Yes."
I then said, "Well, sir, I have a real problem trying to imagine the Prophet Muhammad commanding all Muslims to kill those of your faith for not observing the Muslim sabbath."The minister was speechless. I continued, "I also have problem with your Bible commanding all Christians to stone to death anyone who criticizes your God, as detailed in Leviticus 24:16.

Pope Benedict challenges Churches world wide
The Pope is the head of a Jewish Church and claims that his Catholic Church, which teaches GOD's message to the Jews and not to the Christians, is the only true church
According to a BBC report on July 10, 2007, Pope Benedict has approved a new text asserting that Christian denominations outside Roman Catholicism are not true Churches in the full sense of the word. The document, issued by a Vatican watchdog, has been criticised as offensive by some Protestants. The text was written by the Vatican's Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, headed by Pope Benedict before his election as Pope. It states that Christ established only one Church here on earth. Other Christian denominations, it argues, cannot be called Churches in the proper sense because they cannot trace their bishops back to Christ's original apostles.
The argument Pope Benedict makes is typical for the catholic church which has committed unspeakable crimes, mostly crimes against GOD's word and the teachings of Jesus through the centuries and on orders of their "Bishops and Popes".
Martin Luther, who initially caused the true believers in GOD to turn away from the catholic church because of the criminal and blasphemic acts of the Catholic Church, criticized among other things the lies, deception, violation of GOD's law and the absolution for money in the church. So the Pope should be very quiet about other churches, that fortunately do not share this criminal history.
The Churches that follow the Apostle Paul ARE the real Churches of GOD, not only because they turned away from the crimes of the Catholic Church, but also because they are NOT built on an Apostle for the Jews (Peter and the other Apostles were sent to preach the Kingdom of GOD to the Jews, Paul is the Apostle who preaches the salvation for the Gentiles (non-Jews) and the Body of Christ) but on the Word of GOD for the Body of Christ (Jews and Gentiles who accept Jesus Christ as their savior) and simply because they were reformed Churches (see rightly dividing the Bible). On the other hand, many of these Churches also forgot GOD and violate Jesus Christ's Word in many aspects. So is it not enough to pay lip service to GOD's commandments and claim Jesus to be your savior - you also have to keep and live them as an example, if you are looking forward to salvation.
So it is ridiculous that Pope Benedict claims that the Catholic Church is the only true Church for the Christians. The Catholic Church is the Church for the Jews. Apostle Paul's Church, like our Church of Christian Reformation, is the true Church for the Christians, exactly as the Bible confirms.

Scooter Libby walked free today
Bush crime family still ignores laws and court verdicts
When I heard the statement from Alex Jones: "If you liked Hitler, you are going to love Bush", I was still in doubt that it could be this bad. Time and events convinced me, that Alex Jones was right several years ago, predicting what would happen, and even being conservative in his prediction of future events. If you stand by without trying to stop a crime, you are part of it. Many people are trying to tell America what is really going on, but as Hitler said, the lie only has to be big enough for people to believe it.
And the worst part: they use GOD to sell the lie. But back to Scooter Libby: even though I expected this traitor to walk free sooner or later before he actually has to go to prison (July 2, 2007) - actually I expected a full pardon (which will come at a later time now) - it still hurts that traitors of the United States are walking free in spite of their crimes.
High treason is still on the list with capital punishment - instead the Republican criminals just walk free. Paris Hilton's jail sentence seems more than harsh looking at this unbelievable deed from a US president. It is also hard to believe that all the crimes that were committed by US-politicians who are currently in power will be pardoned or just denied. It does not start with the crimes in wire tapping and it does not stop with falsifying election results in favor of the Republicans.
If the Democrats were not "on the take" they would stop all these crimes. They see them, but they don't intervene. It is just a crying shame. Bush decided today to let Scooter scoot right after meeting with his "friend" Vladimir Putin. Bush still insists to set up and aim new missiles at Russia. What would you do if you were the Russian President? Allow the madman to aim his missiles at your country? Probably not. And that is why Bush insists on the new Rockets: see the older blog...

Bush and Cheney are looking for a new war
Who will be the victim this time? Russia or IRAN?
The war in IRAQ is almost over, now the Republicans and Big Money behind the scenes are trying to have the US-Military occupy the country for the next 50 years. So, to keep the Billions and the blood flowing, Big Money in the US needs new wars that can not be stopped that easily. So they are having Bush and Cheney looking for new opportunities for bloodshed and more Billions before they either declare a state of emergency after they lose the next elections or actually have to step down (June 6, 2007).CNN. U.S. President George W. Bush risked escalating a rumbling row with Russia over U.S. plans for a Europe-based missile defense system by warning that democratic reforms in Russia had been "derailed." In an earlier press conference, Bush said Moscow had nothing to fear from U.S. missile shield plans, which would see bases placed in European countries once within the Kremlin's sphere of influence including the Czech Republic and Poland. "Russia's not our enemy," Bush said, adding that the defense shield was meant to target "rogue nations," not escalate a new Cold War standoff. "My message will be, Vladimir - I call him Vladimir - that you shouldn't fear a missile defense system," Bush said. "As a matter of fact, why don't you cooperate with us ... Please send your generals over to see how such a system would work. Send your scientists. Let us have the ability to discuss this issue in an open forum."
Putin has said the deployment threatens Russian territory and will "turn Europe into a powder keg and stuff it with new types of weapons." The Kremlin leader raised the stakes over the weekend, warning that he may aim nuclear weapons at European targets unless Washington abandons its plans. "If this does not happen, then we will withdraw any responsibility for our retaliatory measures because it wasn't us who initiated a new round of arms race development in Europe," Putin said.
Imagine that Russia would set up a missile shield against the US in Canada. Would we stand idly by? The US started the IRAQ war for financial reasons and with this the US have become the muggers of the modern world - we ignore Global warming for financial reasons for the benefit of the richest and they also need a new war to sell weapons and keep the Gas prices high. Why does anyone believe we would not start a second war? This article will be in the archives for later review and my desperate call: I told you so, why don't you listen, why don't you look for yourself?
It is amazing that everything in current US politics is so predictable and transparent, and that hardly anybody sees it. The Oil Industry got the first gift from the Bush/Cheney Corporation that sold out America and is still cashing in with Gas prices that are higher than double of what would be economically realistic and morally acceptable. Ordered by their other commanders in weapons Industry, war suppliers and the contractors, who cashed in but are still not satisfied with the Billions their two puppets handed them so far, Bush and Cheney have been looking for a new war since a while.
Vladimir Putin was smart enough to ignore Cheney's verbal attacks when Cheney visited Lithuania several month ago. So the first attempt to start a war with Russia had failed. Now the second attempt is to set up Rockets which threaten Russia. And this might be a challenge which the Russian President Putin might not be able to fend off that easily - purely in the interest of his people and possible public opinion. And to make it impossible for Putin to react otherwise, Bush and his partners in crime published the new Rocket threat for Eastern Europe as widely as they could. The other possible next victim of US aggression is IRAN whose President claims to use the nuclear facilities for peaceful purposes. The only country who has been starting wars recently and is funding a bloody occupation is the US. How would you call a country that would attack the US, occupy us, randomly kick in doors at night and search your house? And how would you call the people who do this in Los Angeles, New York, Dallas and Washington D.C.?
Liberators or Terrorists?
Even though Scooter Libby was sentenced to only 30 months in jail for selling out a covert member of the CIA, his commander Dick Cheney should be on trial. This is a crime of high treason and the question is why the traitors are not in Guantanamo Bay being interrogated exactly as they requested by law and court-martialed according to the severity of their crime.
In a related story: The Democratic Party ignored and still ignores the will of the American people and disappointed in every aspect so far.
Habeas Corpus, which means that our government has to explain why it's holding a person in custody, has been taken away by Bush and his crime family under the false pretenses of terrorism. The only terrorism this, our country has seen so far was government ordered. Financed by the United Arab Emirates and carried out by some of their men and most of the terrorist came from Saudi Arabia, the President Bush's closest (and only) friends.
As a 'thank you' he tried to give the United Arab Emirates the control over our most important ports. This was stopped by a public outcry not to give our ports to the terrorists. But back to habeas corpus: the reinstating of this and other essential civil rights for all American citizens should have been the first action of the Democrats during their first 100 hours of power. Another missed opportunity for the opportunists.

Democratic Party betrays their voters
The Democratic Party of the United States voted for the war in IRAQ again today (May 23, 2007), and with this vote supports and takes part in the greed of the current government. The Democrats who in recent weeks disclaimed "If I had known then, what I know now, I would not have voted for the war", decided to - this time knowingly and consciously - to entirely disregard the will of the majority of US voters who had put them in power in order to end the war and to stop the corruption. A task the Democrats are obviously not able to perform. To the voters who depended on them, the "Party of pretend", which the Democrats (or are they paid by the Republican backers for this too?) currently are, Benedict Arnold appears as an honorable man.
By the way, when the unsuspecting Democrats happily voted for the war the first time, I and most of the world outside the US knew that there was NO reason for this war. How is it possible that my intelligence was better than a senators? Higher, yes, easily. But better? Should they not be telling the whole truth?
It is sad that there is no party left in the US to have the conscience to do the right thing. A path which the majority of the US population clearly sees is seemingly not the one for their elected representatives. Whom are these politicians representing? Oil Companies and their government?
The gas prices are already two Dollars per gallon higher than they should be and whoever does not fight this rape of the US population might think about if the reward from Big Oil is more important than the people who voted them into office. I hope that the American people do not forget who is selling them out and give their clear answer at the next elections. It seems to make no difference who is currently in power. Politicians are fighting and abusing their own people. A sign of the times.

Bush's Gang: Worst administration in history!
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (May 19, 2007) - Former President Carter says President Bush's administration is "the worst in history" in international relations, taking aim at the White House's policy of pre-emptive war and its Middle East diplomacy. Carter was quoted Saturday in the Arkansas Democrat Gazette as saying "I think as far as the adverse impact on the nation around the world, this administration has been the worst in history."
...and we could not agree more.

Falwell - He's dead. Good.
One of the people who gave GOD a bad name in America and the Christian faith all over the world, Rev. Jerry Falwell, died today at the age of 73. (May 15, 2007).
A caller at a radio station put it this way by quoting Redd Foxx: "You shall speak good about dead people. He is dead. Good." If you really want to get sick, click here for Falwell Quotes. We don't believe in Hell, but for the sake of the many people he has hurt, I hope GOD makes an exception: Jerry Falwell: "I think hell's a real place where real people spend a real eternity." Don't we all wish you were right - only for your own, personal fate - in this one instance...
"Every politician who voted FOR the war, should not run for any office. Because I - and the rest of the world outside the US - knew that there was NO reason to start this war except for lining the pockets of the richest.
How can a Senator claim to know less than me and the rest of the world about politics and still keep their job? By the way, my dear fellow Pastors and Americans: GOD does NOT like war. Please review the commandments and remember: Love your neighbor, you shall not kill, lie, steal...! Then you know why there is NO reason to support the crimes of the current government."

We don't believe in Hell, but for the sake of the many people he has hurt, I hope GOD makes an exception: Jerry Falwell: "I think hell's a real place where real people spend a real eternity." Don't we all wish you were right - only for your own, personal fate - in this one instance...
"Every politician who voted FOR the war, should not run for any office. Because I - and the rest of the world outside the US - knew that there was NO reason to start this war except for lining the pockets of the richest.
How can a Senator claim to know less than me and the rest of the world about politics and still keep their job? By the way, my dear fellow Pastors and Americans: GOD does NOT like war. Please review the commandments and remember: Love your neighbor, you shall not kill, lie, steal...! Then you know why there is NO reason to support the crimes of the current government."

Bush is trying to create a God of War - Contractors still want more
As the only winners in Bush's Iraq war, Halliburton and other contractors have not satisfied their lust for money just as of yet. The President announced today that he will veto the bill which is supposed to bring our troops home, to stop the killing of our troops and Iraqi civilians and also to stop the spending - or better - handing over of our social security to Halliburton and other companies.
How can anyone keep killing Americans for no apparent reason, keep the Oil prices high as ever, despise an entire nation - ours with more than 70 percent IS opposed to the war, fire every intelligent opponent of his war in the military field and refer to the nitwit Yea-sayers he replaced them with, without having our nation stand up and tell him that he works for us, not we for him. Then he replaces all US attorneys who show that they have a backbone with his own spineless devout creatures. Hitler, who was by the way financed by our President's Grandfather, has laid the groundwork for the people behind George W. The attack on the judicial system is - as many other things - is modeled after a blueprint of the 1930's.
GOD is not the heathen GOD of war that the President, many Televangelists, Pastors and Priests try to make Him to serve their own agenda or to indulge their ignorance. The killing has to be stopped. GOD does NOT condone theft, lies or murder.

You are being deceived!
If you look at what the politicians are doing and then look at what they are claiming, you will find a huge discrepancy.
Look at GOD's word: It is not about what you say you do, it is about what you actually do. Circumcised actually means abiding by God's rules.
[1Co 7:18-19] Is any man called being circumcised? let him not become uncircumcised. Is any called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised. Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God.
And the commandments include: Do not steal, do not lie, do not kill. And if you look at the current Government, what do they do? Please look at them and form your own opinion. How can people who violate ALL of GOD's commandments be doing GOD's work? They can't. How can people who promote the breaking of GOD's commandments in promoting this Government be doing GOD's work? They can't either. Why don't you question those people? It is your future as well as it is mine. If someone claims that GOD told him to have more than 3,000 young Americans killed in an unnecessary war, why do you believe him?
[Rom 1:17-18] For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written. The just shall live by faith. For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness.
It is almost unbelievable how easily the Government can deceive most of our country, invade another country, rake in all the money they can get their hands on and leave us - about 98 percent of the population here in our beloved USA - with nothing. The government which consists almost in its entirety of Oil managers walks away with everything else.
The bird flu scare was initiated be the US media by orders of the US Government to give fellow warrior Donald Rumsfeld, who owned enough stock in the manufacturing company of the vaccine to make about one Million Dollars in three months on the side, a little gift. On top of it and to add some more unnecessary scare, the fairytale network ABC produced a so called "docu-drama" to suck up to the Government in which about half of the US population dies in a Bird flu epidemic, which according to experts is a scenario that easily measures up to fairytale dimensions. But - no fairytale - it made Rumsfeld an even richer man. Another "docu-drama" fairytale by ABC about 9-11 was criticized by some honest experts who pulled out of the project because of the lack of truth that was included. The network lost the rest of credibility in the news sector on top of it.
To look into 9-11 it is recommended to watch the pilot episode of the "Lone Gunman", a spin-off of the "X-Files" which seems to contain more truth than any of the ABC-Government co-productions. Whenever ABC speaks about news, I since can't avoid a smile. Most other networks are not better either, just not that obvious. If you like trustworthy news, watch the BBC.
But back to our fearless leaders' revenues and their service to their - our - country. Where the rest of the US-Government makes the money is obvious at every Gas station in the US. Even though the price of Oil on the world market is lower than before, the Gas prices are sky high again - and rising. The Oil companies refuse to admit that they are pocketing as much money as possible as long as they can do it encouraged and protected by the happily participating government, which is protecting its own interests. They call themselves Christians, and claim GOD as their advisor. What do you think Jesus would have done with them?
Let us educate our children, so they can see through politicians' smoke screens and hope that they will see clearly enough so nothing like this can happen again. We don't vote for the Presidency, but we vote for "American Idol". We should reconsider our priorities.
Amen
