Islam













In the pictures above Grand Mufti Husayni gives the Nazi salute and meets with Adolf Hitler. Husayni was Yasser Arafat's uncle. Husayni was indicted war criminal who escaped from allied custody.
On 11 September 1683 the Ottoman Turks attacked Vienna, Austria, a battle that was labeled "The Battle at the gates of Vienna. The Muslim push into central Europe was repulsed and the tide of Islam was stemmed. The attack on 11 September 2001 was a revenge for the battle the Muslims lost in 1683.
Muhammad launched the first crusade against the pagan, Jewish and Christians living on the Arabian peninsula. This crusade was later expanded to North Africa, Spain, the middle East, Andalusia, central Asia, Greece, Macedonia and southern Europe. The Muslims gained their wealth by plundering conquering regions and enslaving the conquered inhabitants.
Consider this - what do Sudan, Nigeria, Indonesia, Philippines, Chechnya, Afghanistan, Cyprus, the former Yugoslavia, Iran, Pakistan, Somalia, Yemen, and India all have in common? all these nations contain Muslims who cannot get along with their neighbors. I do not believe it is possible for Muslims to live in peace with what they consider are non-believers. They divide the world in two. There is the House of Islam and the house of war (Dar el Harb) If one is not a member of the House of Islam than one is at war with Islam. Islam is not an inclusive religion it is exclusive.
Most Americans probably think the Islamic terrorists declared war on the United States Sept. 11, 2001. Actually, it started a long time before – right from the birth of the nation.
When George Washington was serving as president in 1784, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams and Benjamin Franklin were commissioned by the first Congress to assemble in Paris to see about marketing

U.S. products in Europe. Jefferson quickly surmised that the biggest challenge facing U.S. merchant ships were those referred to euphemistically as "Barbary pirates." They weren't "pirates" at all, in the traditional sense, Jefferson noticed. They didn't drink and chase women and they really weren't out to strike it rich. Instead, their motivation was strictly religious. They bought and sold slaves, to be sure. They looted ships. But they used their booty to buy guns, ships, cannon and ammunition. Like those we call "terrorists" today, they saw themselves engaged in jihad and called themselves "mujaheddin."
Why did these 18th-century terrorists represent such a grave threat to U.S. merchant ships? With independence from Great Britain, the former colonists lost the protection of the greatest navy in the world. The U.S. had no navy – not a single warship. Jefferson inquired of his European hosts how they dealt with the problem. He was stunned to find out that France and England both paid tribute to the fiends – who would, in turn, use the money to expand their own armada, buy more weaponry, hijack more commercial ships, enslave more innocent civilians and demand greater ransom.
In 1786, Thomas Jefferson, then the American ambassador to France, and John Adams, then the American ambassador to Britain, met in London with Sidi Haji Abdul Rahman Adja, the "Dey of Algiers" ambassador to Britain. The Americans wanted to negotiate a peace treaty (which they did) based on Congress' vote to appease the "Barbary Pirates" (Jefferson wanted retribution – which he achieved when he became the Third President of The United States by sending in the MARINES, from which we now have "From the halls of Montezuma TO THE SHORES OF TRIPOLI") .
During the meeting Jefferson and Adams asked the Dey's ambassador why Muslims held so much hostility towards America, a nation with which they had no previous contacts.
From AMERICAN SPHINX The Character of Thomas Jefferson by Joseph J. Ellis
"Several Muslim countries along the North African coast had established the
tradition of plundering the ships of European and American merchants in the western Mediterranean and eastern Atlantic, capturing the crews and then demanding ransom from the respective governments for their release. In a joint message to their superiors in Congress, Adams and Jefferson described the audacity of these terrorist attacks, pirates leaping onto defenseless ships with daggers clenched in their teeth. They had asked the ambassador from Tripoli, Adams and Jefferson explained, on what grounds these outrageous acts of unbridled savagery could be justified: "The Ambassador answered us that it was founded on the laws of the prophet, that it was written in their Koran, that all nations who should not have acknowledged their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found, and to make slaves of all they could take as prisoners...."…"… and that every Muslim who should be slain in Battle was sure to go to Paradise."
Jefferson's and Adam's report to congress can BE READ IN THE CONGRESSIONAL RECORD – FIND IT AND READ IT!
This didn't make sense to Jefferson. He recognized the purchase of peace from the Muslims only worked temporarily. They would always find an excuse to break an agreement, blame the Europeans and demand higher tribute.
After three months researching the history of militant Islam, he came up with a very different policy to deal with the terrorists. But he didn't get to implement until years later.
As the first secretary of state, Jefferson urged the building of a navy to rescue American hostages held in North Africa and to deter future attacks on U.S. ships. In 1792, he commissioned John Paul Jones to go to Algiers under the guise of diplomatic negotiations, but with the real intent of sizing up a future target of a naval attack.
Jefferson was ready to retire a year later when what could only be described as "America's first Sept. 11" happened.
America was struck with its first mega-terror attack by hirabists. In the fall of 1793, the Algerians seized 11 U.S. merchant ships and enslaved more than 100 Americans.
When word of the attack reached New York, the stock market crashed. Voyages were canceled in every major port. Seamen were thrown out of work. Ship suppliers went out of business. What Sept. 11 did to the U.S. economy in 2001, the mass ship jacking of 1793 did to the fledgling U.S. economy in that year.
Accordingly, it took the U.S. Congress only four months to decide to build a fleet of warships.
But even then, Congress didn't choose war, as Jefferson prescribed. Instead, while building what would become the U.S. Navy, Congress sent diplomats to reason with the Algerians. The U.S. ended up paying close to $1 million and giving the pasha of Algiers a new warship, "The Crescent," to win release of 85 surviving American hostages.
It wasn't until 1801, under the presidency of Jefferson, that the U.S. engaged in what became a four-year war against Tripoli. And it wasn't until 1830, when France occupied Algiers, and later Tunisia and Morocco, that the terrorism on the high seas finally ended.
France didn't leave North Africa until 1962 – and it quickly became a major base of terrorism once again.What's the moral of the story? Appeasement never works. Jefferson saw it. Sept. 11 was hardly the beginning. The war in which we fight today is the longest conflict in human history.
