Muslim Major Shouts 'Allahu Akbar' as he Massacres 13 soldiers Injures 38

*****UPDATE -11/7/09 -  The media and muslim apologists continue to dance around the truth of the Ft. Hood massacre. Many rushing to blame the military or Hasan's co-workers for his state of mind and subsequent murderous rampage.  Lame excuses such as Hasan was supposedly "harassed" by other military personnel don't hold water. Hasan was an officer - and anyone who had been in the military KNOWS that particularly officers do NOT get harassed. To do so would be the end of the offenders military career.

News comes that the man responsible for the massacre of 13 US Army soldiers, Major Nidal Malik Hasan, was shouting "Allahu Akbar"  as he opened fire on the unsuspecting men and women:

"Soldiers who witnessed the shooting rampage at Fort Hood, Texas that left 13 people dead reported that the gunman shouted "Allahu Akbar!" before opening fire, the base commander said Friday." SOURCE

Recall Allahu Akbar was also screamed by the 9/11 Al Qaeda terrorists as they plunged their airplanes into the twin towers of the World Trade Center killing 2993 innocent people.

This "devout muslim" was also under investigation by the FBI for statements made supporting muslims killing US soldiers:

"The army psychiatrist who shot dead 13 people in murderous rampage at America's biggest military base was facing an FBI investigation for expressing sympathy with suicide bombers....Hasan posted a series of comments on a website which drew parallels between terrorists and a US soldier who sacrificed himself to save his comrades. Investigators were tipped off six months ago by the devout Muslim's worried colleagues."SOURCE

Also extremely disturbing is a video, from the morning of the massacre, showing Hasan wearing a muslim white robe and cap:

"In the video, the individual believed to be Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan appears wearing clothes that would be abnormal for someone of Palestinian descent - Hasan's family is from Jordan. CBS News correspondent Sheila MacVicarreports that the man is wearing a shalwar kameez - long robes far more common in Pakistan and Afghanistan.

He is also wearing white, which in Islam is associated with death or mourning. The prayer cap on his head is also more closely associated with Southeast Asia than with the Arab world." SOURCE

Does the above look like an Army major to you??

This "devout muslim" - earned a six figure income after receiving his "free" psychologist's degree courtesy the USA taxpayers via the US Army:

Hasan, graduated from Virginia Tech in 1997 and earned a doctorate in psychiatry from the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences in Bethesda. He spent at least six years at Walter Reed before moving to Fort Hood.  SOURCE

Has repaid those same taxpayers by killing and injuring their sons, daughters, mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers.

More on Hasan:

On his blog is a link to an article "Martyrdom in Islam vs Suicide Bombing"

He was happy about the Muslim solider who shot and killed a soldier and wounded another at a Little Rock Military recruiting station. Hasan said Muslims should rise up against the aggressors. Maybe we should have more of these.....strapping bombs on and going into Times Square".

The officials had access to Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan's military record. They said he received a poor performance evaluation while at Walter Reed. SOURCE

One has to wonder what psychological damage he has done while counseling soldiers returning from active duty in Iraq and Afghanistan.

The glaring question is why wasn't Hasan booted out of the Army - and instead was promoted and assigned to Fort Hood?  Was it due to the insidious Political Correctness and fear of the Army being labeled "Islamophobic"? The ongoing investigation will shed light on this - but sadly far too late for those who had their lives snuffed out by a supposedly "Lone Wolf"  terrorist.

This cold blooded military Jihadist needs to face severe punishment for his heinous mass murders - let's hope it is death............and he's shouted his last "Allahu Akbar".

************UPDATE -11/7/09 -  Muslim apologists and the lefty mainstream media continue to try to spin Islam out of and dance around the truth of the Ft. Hood massacre. Many are rushing to blame the military or Hasan's co-workers for his state of mind and subsequent murderous rampage.  Lame excuses such as Hasan was supposedly "harassed" by other military personnel don't hold water. Hasan was an officer - and anyone who had been in the military KNOWS that particularly officers do NOT get harassed. To do so would be the end of the offenders military career.

Another hyped up explanation for Hasan is that he feared going to Afghanistan and being in active combat with fellow muslims - again the ludicrousness is obvious. Medical officers - particularly psychiatrists - are not and do not get sent into battle thus Hasan's supposed worries were unfounded. 

 

As shown above -Hasan is not the victim -  outrageous behaviors were primarily one way - inflicted by Hasan onto the soldiers around him. Since I wrote this blog other information has been revealed such as Army Major Hasan stating he viewed himself as "a Muslim first and an American second." and got into frequent arguments with fellow soldiers "who supported the (Iraq & Afghanistan) wars". A recent classmate said Hasan once gave a jarring presentation to students in which he argued the war on terrorism was a war against Islam, and “made himself a lightning rod” when he felt his religious beliefs were challenged". 

 

Hasan also "attended the controversial Dar al-Hijrah mosque in Great Falls, in 2001 at the same time as two of the September 11 terrorists.....His mother's funeral was held there in May that year. The preacher at the time was Anwar al-Awlaki, an American-born Yemeni scholar who was banned from addressing a meeting in London by video link in August because he is accused of supporting attacks on British troops and backing terrorist organisations.

Hasan's eyes "lit up" when he mentioned his deep respect for al-Awlaki's teachings, according to a fellow Muslim officer at the Fort Hood base in Texas, the scene of Thursday's horrific shooting spree. As investigators look at Hasan's motives and mindset, his attendance at the mosque could be an important piece of the 'jigsaw'" SOURCE

 

Recent records also show Hasan privately bought the FN 5.7  (aka 'Cop Killer") gun along with an older model Smith & Wesson .357-caliber revolver, at store called "Guns Galore" in Killeen, Texas. The morning of the massacre he gave away many of his possessions to his neighbors- including passing out copies of the Qu'ran.

 

Clearly Hasan agreed with the statements of a muslim man identified only as Mustafa - interviewed Friday at one of London's largest mosques: "Asked his views on the killings at Fort Hood, he said: “Killing military members is all right. If you are killing people who are fighting against Muslims then that’s okay.”  SOURCE

 

Hasan's cowardly, murderous attack on his unsuspecting fellow soldiers was planned & calculated in advance.

 

Time to stop the dhimwitted excuses and call this horror what it is - Islamic Terror.

*******************ADDENDUM***********************

Hassan also served on President Barack Obama's White House transition team:

NEW YORK - Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, the alleged shooter in yesterday's massacre at Fort Hood, played a homeland security advisory role in President Barack Obama's transition into the White House according to a key university policy institute document...... Hasan is listed on page 29 of the document as a Task Force Event Participant   SOURCE

 

 

 

Muslim 'cleric' sent hate mail to Australian war widows

One of the most reprehensible acts by a supposed "cleric" or "spiritual leader" would be to stir up hatred and cause more pain to families already grieving the deaths of their husbands/sons.  Well that didn't stop muslim Sheik Haron from sending hate mail to SEVEN Australian war widows and parents mourning the deaths of their loved ones. (See article below)

Guess the British won't be too surprised seeing they had their own recent show of soldier hate by a group of mocking muslim cowards in Luton. Led by no other than the odious hate mongerer, Adjem Choudary; (see prior blog) these muslims mocked the deaths of British soldiers killed in Afghanistan.

"The families of soldiers killed by friendly fire in Iraq have reacted with fury after a firebrand preacher taunted them over the deaths of their loved ones. Anjem Chourdary added insult to the injury caused by Islamic extremists' hate-filled protest against soldiers returning home from the war-torn region by saying they were 'not heroes but closer to coweards who cannot fight, as their uncanny knack for death by friendly fire illustrates'.....'They are terrorists, and cannot be excused for simply "carrying out their duty", which incidentally (and vividly) was also used by Nazi soldiers in Germany to justify their notorious and bloody campaigns in the early 20th century."SOURCE


 

FINALLY the Aussies have the guts to file charges against their Choudary-wannabe - Sheik Haron. Let's hope the authorities prosecute him to the fullest and that he gets a judge unlike far too many found in Britain.

Muslim 'cleric' Sheik Haron allegedly sent hate mail to Australian war widows

By Kara Lawrence, Tim Vollmer and Janet Fife-Yeomans

• Muslim 'cleric' delivers letters to widows
• Arrested for using mail service to harrass
• Allegedly called soldiers "murderers"

THEY are young Australians who paid the ultimate price, losing their lives at war - but now their families have allegedly been targeted by self-styled Muslim cleric Sheik Haron in an anti-war campaign.

Finally, after an alleged two-year letter-writing spree that has devastated the families of seven Diggers who died in Afghanistan, Haron faces criminal charges, The Daily Telegraph reports.

In the letters he allegedly wrote to grieving parents and wives of the Diggers - one addressed to a widow, care of a funeral home - he apparently accused some of the dead Australian soldiers of being "criminals", "killers" and "murderers" fighting a war of invasion.

Haron has penned letters to the families of Michael Fussell, Gregory Sher, Mathew Hopkins, Brett Till, Jason Marks, Luke Worsley and Benjamin Ranaudo.

One of Haron's letters was allegedly hand-delivered to Brett Till's widow Breeanna at his funeral.

Counter-terrorism police arrested Haron, 45, - an Iranian-born immigrant who claims to be a Muslim spiritual leader - at his Croydon Park home on Tuesday.

Sydney's Joint Counter Terrorism Team, comprising Australian Federal Police and NSW Police, also visited two other addresses, at Campsie and Green Valley.

Haron was charged on Tuesday night with seven counts of "using a postal service or similar service to menace, harass, or cause offence" and was granted bail to appear in court next month.

Yesterday, he told The Daily Telegraph he would fight the charges and was seeking legal advice.

"I was in the custody of the AFP for a while, a few hours ... then I was released. I believed that I am innocent, of course. Later I can explain everything."

Haron has posted the letters he allegedly sent on a website attributed to him.

In a letter to Gregory Sher's family, he allegedly wrote: "I feel bad that you have lost your son but I don't feel bad that a murderer of innocent civilians has lost his life."

Sher family friend Ben Hirsh said he was aware a number of grieving families had allegedly received anti-war letters.

"Getting any anti-war letters is disgusting," he said.

Private Luke Worsley's father John said: "You have just got the news of the loss of your son and then this happens."

PORTRAIT OF A BRITISH WAR HERO - BRAVERY FAR FEW OF US POSSESS

Brave British soldier immortalised in painting depicting the moment he was gunned down in a hail of bullets

By Daily Mail Reporter
Last updated at 8:39 AM on 29th September 2009

Bursting out of a cornfield with his rifle blazing the paratrooper charges towards an enemy position. The insurgents fall in the hail of gunfire but one manages to raise a rifle towards the lone soldier hinting that it is about to unleash a fatal burst of gunfire.

Celebrating the heroism of the soldier in unabashed style, the painting shows the courage of Corporal Bryan Budd as he stormed a Taliban position in Afghanistan.

Cpl Budd was hit by a stray bullet during hand-to-hand fighting with the insurgents in Helmand province three years ago after he had killed three of the enemy.

A member of 3rd Battalion the Parachute Regiment, 29-year-old Cpl Budd was awarded the first posthumous Victoria Cross since the Falklands War.

Honour: A painting of Corporal Bryan Budd, 29, was commissioned by The 3rd Battalion Parachute Regiment after he was killed in Afghanistan storming a Taliban position in 2006

His widow Lorena collected the medal from Buckingham Palace two years ago with the couple's two children, the youngest born after Cpl Budd was killed in action.

To honour his bravery officers at the regiment's HQ, in Colchester, commissioned the oil painting.

It was painted by military artist Stuart Brown, who interviewed fellow soldiers who had been on Cpl Brown's last mission near Sangin.

During the battle with the Taliban, he led his section of men around a cornfield to cut them off but they were spotted and came under heavy fire.

Two of his men were injured, and realising their position was perilous and they were likely to be captured or killed, Cpl Budd ran through the corn firing his rifle.

Brave: Cpl Budd, who was attempting to protect men in his section, was awarded the first posthumous Victoria Cross since the Falklands War. The soldier, who had two children, was killed when a stray bullet hit him during hand-to-hand fighting

The oil painting depicts him bursting out of the cornfield and killing three armed insurgents.

But seconds later he was to be hit and killed himself.

Mr Brown, from Southampton, said: 'Cpl Budd was obviously an exceptional soldier and I wanted to depict him in that light.

'I knew what the scene was and it was up to me to capture the spirit and courage of the man moments before he died.'

The type of heroics shown by Cpl Budd are thought to be some of the reasons behind a surge in new recruits to the British armed forces.

Young people inspired by patriotism and the threat of joblessness  have lead to a 25 per cent jump in Army applications this year, with more signing up now than at any time since 2005.

Colonel Jonathan Calder-Smith, who helps run the army unit responsible for recruitment, told the Guardian many young recruits have been inspired to join the armed forces, despite casualties continuing to rise in Afghanistan: 'We are seeing gatekeepers – teachers and parents, mothers particularly – who are less keen to see their sons and daughters joining the army and that is understandable'.

RESPECT = HUNDREDS TURN OUT FOR FALLEN HEROES

Some of our bravest return and proudly march throught the streets of Great Britain ---- some do not. 

Residents of Wootten Basset, and others, turned out by the hundreds to show their pride and respect for two brave soldiers -  Lieutenant Colonel Rupert Thorneloe and Trooper Joshua Hammond who were both killed in action in Afghanistan. My thoughts and prayers go out to the families and friends.

Fortunately - there were no reports (that I could find) of muslims spewing hate against the soldiers and mocking their dead compatriots -  as when the 2nd Battalion Royal Anglian Regiment marched through Luton - even thought these muslim vowed similar anti-soldier demonstrations at other homecoming parades.  

Maybe these -- "troublemakers" -- helped to change their minds?

(Sadly, three more soldiers joined the ranks of the fallen: Lance Corporal David Dennis, of The Light Dragoons, and Private Robert Laws, of 2nd Battalion, The Mercian Regiment and a third soldier, from the 1st Battalion Welsh Guards - name not yet given.)

HUNDREDS TURN OUT FOR HEROES

By RHODRI PHILLIPS

HUNDREDS turned out today to pay their respects to two soldiers killed in Afghanistan as their bodies were returned to British soil.

Coffins draped in Union Jack flags were driven through Wootton Basset, in Wiltshire, after being flown into nearby RAF Lyneham this morning.

Killed ... Lieutenant Colonel Rupert Thorneloe

One was Lieutenant Colonel Rupert Thorneloe, the commanding officer of the 1st Battalion Welsh Guards and the highest ranking Army officer to be killed since the Falklands War.

Lt Col Thorneloe died in a blast which hit his Viking armoured vehicle near Lashkar Gah in Helmand Province, southern Afghanistan, on Wednesday.

Tragic ... Trooper Joshua Hammond, 18

Trooper Joshua Hammond, 18, of 2nd Royal Tank Regiment, also died in the explosion.

A private ceremony for close relatives was held in a chapel at RAF Lyneham today.

Afterwards, members of the 2nd Royal Tank Regiment lined the streets of the town alongside Royal British Legion veterans, shopkeepers and residents to pay tribute to the fallen men.

The repatriation came as the Army was today mourning THREE more British soldiers killed in separate attacks in Afghanistan over the weekend.

A member of the 1st Battalion Welsh Guards was on foot patrol when he perished yesterday.

Lance Corporal David Dennis, of The Light Dragoons, and Private Robert Laws, of 2nd Battalion, The Mercian Regiment, were killed on Saturday in the bloodiest spell of the year.

Pte Laws was hit by a rocket-propelled grenade.

And L/Cpl Dennis was killed by a Taliban mine.

Desperate

L/Cpl Dennis, from Llanelli, South Wales, had just helped secure a helicopter landing site so casualties could be airlifted away for treatment when he was killed by an improvised explosive device.

He leaves behind his mother Adele, twin brother Gareth and his fiancee Lisa, whom he intended to marry on his return to the UK.

The soldier — known as "Duke" — joined the Army as a gunner in 2003 and served in Iraq before deploying on his second tour to Afghanistan this year.

Senior officers praised his dedication to his regiment, skill as an instructor and mentor, and sense of humour.

Lieutenant Colonel Gus Fair, commanding officer of the Light Dragoons Battle Group, said: "L/Cpl Dennis was one of a hugely talented generation of Light Dragoons.

Respects ... hundreds turned out to honour soldiers

SWNS

"Duke loved being in the regiment, and the regiment celebrated this popular, genuine and heartfelt soldier."

He said L/Cpl Dennis had been deeply affected by the death of his close friend Lance Corporal Nigel Moffett, 28, of the Light Dragoons, from Belfast, earlier in the tour.

Their deaths, during an operation near Gereshk, took the number of UK troops killed in Afghanistan since the start of operation in October 2001 to 174.

A Downing Street spokesman told a daily Westminster media briefing today: "The Government sends its condolences to the families and friends of those who have been killed or injured in Afghanistan.

"It believes the Armed Forces are doing a vital job in very difficult circumstances."

Asked if consideration was being given to increasing the British military presence in Afghanistan, the spokesman said: "Decisions on the nature of our engagement in Afghanistan are obviously taken by commanders on the ground in consultation with the MoD and ministers, and of course with our allies.

"At present, we believe we have the balance in the right place.

"There will be additional UK troops in Helmand to assist in the period up to the Afghan elections and of course there are also ongoing US operations as part of the wider allied operation in the south."

Yesterday Lieutenant Colonel Nick Richardson, in Afghanistan, said grimly: "The loss of these soldiers, and colleagues, has come as a huge blow."

Brigadier General Eric Tremblay added: "The insurgents are desperate and they are employing desperate tactics."

Are The British Finally FED UP With Islam? Part II

I recently wrote a blog asking the question Are the British Finally FED UP with Islam?  This blog was in response to the recent pro-military demostrations prompted by the muslim led ANTI British military protests in Luton. Many British people had been outraged by the disrespect shown to the military by the muslim louts -in particular - the mocking of the fallen troops  by the perpetually hate-filled muslim cleric, Anjem "Choudary.

The pro-military demonstration stood in stark contrast to both the Luton muslim protests and the earlier anti-semetic/anti-Israel protests in London - where thousands of people protested - "pelting the police with missiles and fireworks" and millions of pounds in damage was done to London businesses and properties. A paltry three protesters were arrested by the "treat them with kid gloves" retreating police. 

Thus - in response to the Luton muslims - you had the much smaller group of approximately 300 -500 pro-British military demonstrators (described as a mob by the media) and not surprisingly the truncheon wielding police arrested 8 of their lot.  Only two were ever charged with very minor offenses (one from a previous order). ZERO damage was inflicted by this "mob".

Once again we find the British military subjected to the insults and venomous, provoking shouts by muslims and the hijacking of another military homecoming parade - this one by 3 Commando.

3 Commando suffered more fatalities -in this past deployment -  than any other brigade:

"The number of UK troops killed on operations in Afghanistan since 2001 stands at 169, after a soldier from the 1st Battalion Welsh Guards was killed in an explosion in Helmand province on 19 June.

More than one in five of those have come from 3 Commando."

Thus - what should be another happy homecoming parade - with brave men and women having completed their admirable mission - of protecting the Afghani (muslim) people -  and safely returned home - is marred (again) by malicious muslim rancor.

"They were caught up in some of the heaviest fighting seen by British troops since the Second World War as they held key positions, prepared for the arrival of U.S. troops, helped to maintain security for the elections and tackled the drugs trade."

Number of muslim and "permanent" protesters arrested = ZERO. 

Number of British people 'Fed Up With Islam" = mushrooming!

Royal Marines abused by anti-war protesters as they hold homecoming parade

By Daniel Bates and Daniel Martin

It was supposed to be a show of thanks for the most battle-worn of all the troops.

But the march of 3 Commando from Buckingham Palace to Parliament was today hijacked by anti-war protesters who screamed abuse at them.

Five militants waving Iraqi flags accused the marines of 'genocide' and shouted 'How many have to die for your filthy little lie?' and 'Not in my name'.

3 Commando's march from Buckingham Palace to Parliament was marred by anti-war protesters, who shouted at the troops as they went past

As they screamed into a megaphone in an attempt to drown out the Royal Marines band, those watching clapped and cheered loudly to overcome them.

One protestor was restrained by police until the 120 servicemen and women had gone into the House of Commons, where they were met by Armed Forces Minister Bill Rammell and other dignitaries.

It was the only slight on what was a special day for 3 Commando, which has suffered more fatalities than any other Brigade on their last tour.

Some 33 troops died and and hundreds were injured on the gruelling six-month winter slog in the southern Helmand province.

Protesters were eventually drowned out by applause from others

Police moved the protesters away, but Scotland Yard said there were no arrests

They were caught up in some of the heaviest fighting seen by British troops since the Second World War as they held key positions, prepared for the arrival of U.S. troops, helped to maintain security for the elections and tackled the drugs trade.

3 Commando Brigade Royal Marines is the elite fighting force of the Royal Navy.

The 3,500-strong brigade is an amphibious rapid reaction force, highly trained for combat in extreme weather conditions and on difficult terrain.

On the last tour they were involved in operation Sond Chara, or Red Dagger, the biggest offensive since the Iraq invasion of 2003 which involved attacking insurgent strongholds near Nad-e-Ali in Helmand.

The troops also took part in operation Diesel, a raid on a Taliban drug factory in Upper Sangin Valley.

The number of UK troops killed on operations in Afghanistan since 2001 stands at 169, after a soldier from the 1st Battalion Welsh Guards was killed in an explosion in Helmand province on 19 June.

More than one in five of those have come from 3 Commando.

3 Commando Brigade Royal Marines is the elite fighting force of the Royal Navy

Armed Forces minister Bill Rammell said: 'It is absolutely right that we honour the troops from 3 Commando in this way.

'I have seen first hand how committed and dedicated they are and we must thank them for all they have achieved in Afghanistan, particularly in controlling the narcotics trade and ensuring the elections were as secure as possible.'

A small crowd gathered outside Wellington barracks to cheer on the troops as they marched down Birdcage Walk, through Parliament Square and through the Carriage Gate to the Royal Marines Band

One young boy waved a union jack while others including tourists from Germany, the U.S. and Japan clapped and cheered.

Lance Corporal Frank Wyatt, 25, from Oxford, said the support made a difference.

He said: 'People need to appreciate what we're doing and the more they know about it the better.'

The demonstrators maintain a permanent presence in Parliament Square to protest the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan

Medical Assistant Roxanne Starsmeare, 23, from Taunton in Somerset, had just completed her first six-month tour of Afghanistan.

She said: 'For the last three months I was one of the front-line medics and treated everything from cut knees to troops who had been seriously injured, of which there were unfortunately a lot.

'It was hard work but I learned a lot and made some good friends. I think people are increasingly appreciating what we do an it's a real boost to know the country is behind you.'

Onlooker Sterling Lacey, 73, a retired teacher, said: 'It's the last we can do to show our gratitude for all they've been through.'

Last weekend some 30,000 people turned out to show support for the troops on Armed Forces Day. 3 Commando will be holding a day of remembrance for fallen colleagues in Exeter on Saturday, where they are based, and some 1,000 personnel from the Brigade are expected to attend.

The five who shouted abuse are protestors who maintain a constant presence in Parliament Square to demonstrate against the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Scotland Yard said there were no arrests.

Former Gitmo Detainee Becomes XBox Star

File in the category of "You couldn't make this stuff up", former Gitmo detainee,  Moazzam Begg, is on his way to starring in a new X-box game. The new game, Rendition, is being developed by a software firm in Scotland and lets players control a Guantanamo detainee who is trying to shoot his way out of the prison. Begg's "expertise" was called upon as the game's creators needed to know the layout of the prison thus he was initially hired as a consultant.

Needless to say the game maker is being criticized:

"We have had a lot of hate mail about this, mainly from America, saying things like, 'Don't dare put out a game that shows them killing our soldiers," Zarrar Chishti, director of Scottish software company T-Enterprise, told the U.K.'s Daily Mail."

Hate mail?  Sounds more like adamant requests not to make an outrageous "true to life" game about killing American (or British) soldiers - can't imagine why anyone would find that offensive and unacceptable - can you?

Zarrar Chishti, director of the software company, insists that only "mercenaries" will be killed - mercenaries at Gitmo? - now that sounds a bit NON-realistic. 

Chishti further states: "We are expecting an extreme reaction to the game in the US. But we think it will sell well in the Middle East."

Well - guess that should come as no surprise - but you can be sure that the "extreme reaction" in the USA WON'T look like THIS or THIS over THIS. 

At a cost of £250,000 or $405,000, the game/atrocity is scheduled to go on sale this coming October.

Just another glaring example of:  For many people - when it comes to money - there is no morality.

42 Commando Royal Marine Rugby Tackles Taliban Suicide Bomber - 'a picture is worth a thousand words'

Undoubtedly many acts of bravery and heroism, by our soldiers, go unrecognized and unheralded - this is the very nature of their daily life in a war zone.

Thus it is with great pride and pleasure that I post this story about the courage and valor of Royal Marine, Sgt Noel Connolly -see full article at bottom of post-  who saved the lives of 30 of his mates when he rugby tackled a Taliban suicide bomber.

It is men and women of this high calibre and ilk that represent Great Britain in wars that not all of us agree with - but one thing upon which we can all agree is giving the utmost merit and thanks to these returning marines and soldiers. Sadly, some families face the return of a son or daughter who has been killed in the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. They, who have paid the ultimate sacrifice, for their love of and allegiance to Great Britain deserve even a higher level of respect and appreciation from everyone. After all, most of us fall far short of the admirable characteristics and valiance shown by these - both living and dead  - heroes.

Such was the case recently, in Luton, when the Royal Anglian Regiment returned home. Rightfully, thousands of flag waving family, friends and others came to show their support and lined the street as the regiment proudly marched by:

Proud: The Royal Anglian Regiment, marching along Watford High St

One the lowest end of the crowd spectrum was the despicable muslim hate mongerer, Anjem Chourdary, who insulted the soldiers by saying they were  'not heroes but closer to cowards who cannot fight, as their uncanny knack for death by friendly fire illustrates'. Choudary hurled the insults specifically at three soldiers who had perished under "friendly fire". LINK

Sharing Choudary's hate, was an odious group of 20 muslim men also taunting and insulting the soldiers.  (They)" .... held up banners and placards that read: "Anglian Soldiers Butchers of Basra", "Anglian Soldiers Criminals, Murderers Terrorists" and "Baby killers".

In stark contrast to the photos of the The Royal Anglian Regiment and that of Sgt Connolly ---  is the below picture of these contemptible muslim ingrates - dressed in black - spewing their hate and venom - holding placard that give further proof of their vileness.

 

So a prime example of good vs evil was there for all to see on the streets of Luton.

As the saying goes: " A picture is worth a thousand words"

Royal Marine rugby tackles Taliban suicide bomber to save servicemen

A Royal Marine has told how he saved the lives of up to 30 of his fellow servicement by rugby tackling a Taliban suicide bomber.

Sgt Noel Connolly and his unit were occupying an abandoned school in Afghanistan's Kandahar province when they received warning of an impending attack.

The 41-year-old said: "I was near the school when I caught a fleeting glimpse of a motorbike. I told all my lads to expect a bomber. The motorcyclist looked lost.

Sgt Noel Connolly

"He turned the bike around up the track and came back. I grabbed two lads and went to intercept him. I had no idea if he was the bomber. The only way of finding out was to challenge him."

The sergeant said he then stepped into the road and ordered the man to stop in Pashtu.

He added: "He stalled the bike and fell off, then started pushing it away from us. Eventually he stopped again, straddled it and turned to face us. I closed in on him and as I got to within ten metres there was a loud crack from halfway down the bike.

"That's when I saw a small toggle switch had been fitted to his handlebars. As soon as he went for the toggle again I rushed him. I grabbed him by the front of his shirt and hauled him off."

The motorbike's frame was found to contain 154lbs of explosive. The bomber was handed to police and jailed for 18 years.

Sgt Connolly, of Manchester, and the 600 other Royal Marines of Plymouth-based 42 Commando return to Britain on Thursday.

He added of the incident: "I'm not brave. Someone had to stop him."

Muslim Woman Self Immolates Rather Than Continue Desperate Life

53 year old Afghan widow, Jan Bibi, chose to pour gasoline over her body and light herself on fire rather than continue her desperate life. As an aging muslim woman - with no husband - she was on the bottom rung of Afghan life and considered a pariah of society.  She had little chance of finding work due to her gender and even less chance of finding a new husband due to her age. So a painful, skin blistering-flesh charring death by fire seemed the only solution to her desolate situation.

Recently President Barack Obama declared that the USA is losing the War in Afghanistan and discussed talking with the "moderate" Taliban in Afghanistan. What might these "moderates" want as concessions?

"One expert comments that "a few months ago, Taliban leaders, believed to be moderate, indicated the three points that for them are nonnegotiable: that all the soldiers from other countries leave; that there be no foreign interference in Afghan politics; and that sharia (Islamic law) be applied." LINK

Thus Obama's publicized thoughts of "reaching out"  to the Taliban are cause for consternation and fear particularly among the Afghan women - many who hope the United States presence in Afghanistan will increase the success of democracy and offer continuing hope and positive change to their grim existence under the Taliban/Sharia Law rule.

"Fear is widespread that a new Taliban regime would mean "going backward." Analysts observe that the only results of this long war and its immense cost in human lives and money may be the better conditions for women, and democracy. Democracy is still weak, to such an extent that Karzai has delayed until August the elections scheduled for April, because of the difficult situation."

""The evolution of this country is in the hands of women. Under the Taliban, women could not even go to school, they were forced to stay home and endure forced marriages." LINK

"The Taliban government that ruled Afghanistan from 1996 to 2001 forced women to stay at home and banned them from appearing in public without a body-covering burqa. Much has improved since then: Millions of girls now attend school, and many women own businesses. Of 351 parliamentarians, 89 are women. On Saturday, a female lawmaker, Shalah Attah, said she will run for president in this year's election, now set for August." LINK

Afghan women now only have to look across a nearby border to see strictly imposed Sharia Law in the Swat Valley -  located in nothwestern Pakistan. This area was recently sacrificed by the Pakistani government in order to appease the militant Taliban -- in a  "peace" agreement.  Apparently past experience was discounted:

"This cease-fire smacks of a similar deal the previous government of Pervez Musharraf arranged in Pakistan's tribal areas in 2006. That deal created a Taliban sanctuary and led to sharp increases in terrorist attacks, both in Afghanistan and the Pakistan heartland. Sufi Mohammed has signed three previous pacts with various Pakistani governments extending the writ of Islamic law. None mollified the extremists; each invited the next round of violent demands." LINK

Thus it should come as no surprise that the "peace" was swiftly broken:

"Yet no sooner was the deal signed than a Pakistani journalist was murdered while covering a "peace march" organized by Sufi Mohammed -- the 20th journalist killed around Swat in two years." LINK

There is currently little evidence that the Taliban, in Afghanistan, would be any different.

President Obama needs to think long and hard about any appeasement of the Taliban and any level of condoning Sharia Law - to do so would be giant leap backwards for the nation and particularly it's brave women ----- ensuring that the piercing screams from burning muslim Afghan women - like Jan Bibi - will be deafening.

OBAMA DECLARES US MILITARY IS LOSING WAR IN AFGHANISTAN

I'm sure that our brave military men and women, fighting in Afghanistan, will be heartened to learn their Commander in Chief - President Barack HUSSEIN Obama is declaring,  that the US military is losing the war in Afghanistan.

It was bad enough when the incredibly insipid Senate Majority Leader, Democrat Harry Reid,  stated that the "The War in Iraq is lost" and the surge was a failure - when in the exact opposite has happened.

Now we have the man who is the Commander in Chief of our military - who "outranks any military officer and so has the inherent right to assume command on the battlefield"- as making this "moral boosting" quote:

"Asked if the United States was winning in Afghanistan, a war he effectively adopted as his own last month by ordering an additional 17,000 troops sent there, Mr. Obama replied flatly, “No.”

Well then wouldn't you think if that is truly the case then Obama would be working day and night to ensure our troops, risking and losing their lives in harm's way, have the men/women and equipment they need to succeed in their mission in Afghanistan?

President B.O. also is considering appeasing "elements" of the Taliban.

I've got to go and mop up the blood that's shooting out of my eyes.
