Sultan Knish - Brief Update: Fort Hood Shooter's Former Imam had Terrorist Ties: "it is entirely possible that Imams like Khan helped shape Hassan Malik's radical Islamist worldview. Especially since it dates back to his time in Maryland, rather than being the product of army frustrations, as the media spin is attempting to portray it as." - http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/2009...
"The Islamic Society of North America is a Wahhabi Islamist group co-created by Sami Al Arian, of the Palestinian Arab terrorist group, Islamic Jihad. Islam scholar Stephen Schwartz describes ISNA as "one of the chief conduits through which the radical Saudi form of Islam passes into the United States." According to terrorism expert Steven Emerson, ISNA "is a radical group hiding under a false veneer of moderation"; "convenes annual conferences where Islamist militants have been given a platform to incite violence and promote hatred" (for instance, al Qaeda supporter and PLO official Yusuf Al-Qaradhawi was invited to speak at an ISNA conference); has held fundraisers for terrorists (after Hamas leader Mousa Marzook was arrested and eventually deported in 1997, ISNA raised money for his defense); has condemned the U.S. government's post-9/11 seizure of Hamas' and Palestinian Islamic Jihad's financial assets; and publishes a bi-monthly magazine, Islamic Horizons, that "often champions...

The Muslim World League is one of the larger Saudi funded Islamist groups. MWL promotes Wahhabism, the extremist form of Islam practiced in Saudi Arabia. In the 1980s, the League's Pakistan office was run by Mohammed Jamal Khalifa, a senior member of the Muslim Brotherhood and brother-in-law of Osama bin Laden.

Via Gawker: "The gunman who killed 12 people today at Ft. Hood appears, based on current media reports, to be Army psychiatrist Nidal Hasan who was listed as a participant in a Homeland Security Policy Institute's presidential transition task force last year. The task force was not officially affiliated with the White House. It was a project of the Homeland Security Policy Institute, an independent thinktank housed at George Washington University, aimed at drafting policy recommendations for the incoming Obama administration. According to the task force's May 2009 report [pdf], a "Nidal Hasan" from the Uniformed Services University School of Medicine was a task force event participant. Other participants included Senate and House staffers, Department of Homeland Security officials, Defense Department officials, and reporters for Politico, the Washington Post, and the London Times...."

"the test launch over the Mediterranean of a rocket with a sixty-kilometer range that would put Tel Aviv, Israel's major population center, within range. Israel officials also believe this longer range rocket was supplied by Iran." - http://www.isracast.com/article...
"As for Judge Richard Goldstone how would he suggest Israel defend her citizens from such dire threats? On the basis of his counter - terror expertise how does Judge Goldstone think democratic states in general and Israel in particular, should defend their her citizens from terrorists, who exploit their own people as human shields. How should Israel respond if the city of Tel Aviv were to suddenly be rocketed from Gaza and southern Lebanon by terrorists who set up their rocket launchers near schools and hospitals? It can be said that the Americans, the Brits and the other NATO forces in Iraq and Afghanistan are fighting terrorism with one hand tied behind their back - Judge Goldstone has ruled that Israel should fight no less dangerous terrorists than those in Iraq and Afghanistan with nearly both hands tied behind her back."

"Almost daily this week, there were dramatic developments in Israel's counter-terror campaign. At the center, what Israeli experts call the 'Iranian octopus' of terrorist activities - the Israeli seizure at sea of an innocent- looking merchant ship, the Francop, with a cargo of hundreds tons of weapons and explosives plying its course to Syria and then on to Hezballah in south Lebanon. Secondly, the Palestinians test launched a rocket with a sixty kilometer range that could hit the Tel Aviv metropolitan area of the Jewish state. This did not make any impression in the UN General Assembly. There, delegates of the 118 nations of the pro- Arab majority, took the podium to vilify the Jewish state for defending her citizens against Iranian sponsored terrorism. This time they had a new rallying point - what is viewed in Israel as the infamous Goldstone report that alleged that Israel had committed war crimes during the Cast Lead operation to halt eight years of rocketing of Israeli civilians from Gaza. IsraCast joins the dots of the big picture."

"Hasan’s reliance on a gun the uneducated media told him was a powerful “cop killer” quite possibly saved lives at Fort Hood. If the same victims had been hit with 155-180 grain .40 S&W or 185-230 grain .45ACP hollow points, their wounds would likely have been far more severe than the wounds they suffered from even a fragmenting 40 grain VMAX bullet in the most commonly available 5.7 cartridge. The American media has a long and ignoble history of firearms ignorance often based upon the propaganda of anti-gun organizations. Finally, if but for once, that ignorance and fact-free hype may have served to actually save lives."

"After nearly a decade of doing everything it can destroy the creation of new high tech companies, Congress finally does something right . . .and the whining has already begun. This week, by a vote of 37-32, the House Financial Services Committee voted to amend the Sarbanes-Oxley Act to permanently exempt companies valued at less than $75 million from the audit portion of that law. The bipartisan sponsors of the bill were two Congressmen: John Adler (D) and Scott Garrett (R), both from New Jersey. Apparently, in what may be the first actual support of small business creation in America in its year in office, the amendment was also backed by the White House, in particular chief of state Rahm Emanuel. It seems that the Obama administration has finally begun to realize that you can’t create jobs at the same time that you are strangling the job creators. Kudos to them all.

not one mention that Doctor Hasan was a Muslim in the NYTimes - they blame the abuse of Military Therapists for the Fort Hood shooting - http://www.nytimes.com/2009...
"Many of the patients who fill the day are bereft, angry, broken. Their experiences are gruesome, their distress lasting and the process of recovery exhausting. The repeated stories of battle and loss can leave the most professional therapist numb or angry. And hanging over it all, for psychiatrists and psychologists in today’s military, is the prospect of their own deployment — of working under fire in Iraq or Afghanistan, where the Pentagon has assigned more therapists to combat units than in previous wars."

"UN Resolution 181. This vote is often described as creating Israel, but it was more accurately an attempt to settle the borders of Israel that failed because of Arab genocidal hostility that expressed itself not only toward Israel, but toward the Jews living in Arab lands." - http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/2009...
"Nor did post-war European colonialism create Israel. Britain, which was the colonial power in the region, was against Israel's independence and abstained in the UN vote. The majority of votes for Resolution 181 came from non-European countries, primarily in Latin America and Eastern Europe, such as Bolivia, Brazil, Panama, Peru and Poland, Ukraine and the Soviet Union. 7 European countries voted Yes, most of them Northern European states such as Sweden and Denmark, which experienced only a limited impact of the Holocaust. 12 Latin American countries voted Yes. Twice the number. And all of them countries that had their own national aspirations and had fought against colonialism."

"Post-Holocaust guilt was not the reason Resolution 181 passed. Less than a third of the 33 votes came from countries where the Holocaust had taken place. The reasons were varied and different.

"While indeed much of the population of Israel came from outside the land, that was because thousands of years of massacres and warfare had depopulated the area. When Western observers visited Israel in the 19th century, they found that the land was barren and had a low population, both Jewish and Arab. In fact Israel was so sparsely populated, that its entire population in 1850, a mere 350,000 people, could fit into modern day Tel Aviv with room to spare. This is all the more striking when you consider that we are talking about a territory several times the size of modern day Israel."

It is now September 1st, and this has not reached 1000 comments. I am sorely disappointed. Yet, for some reason, I am uplifted by the smile of this young man, who was fortunate enough to have such great friends that fateful day on the beach.
- Josh Haley
Quick let's add some comments... Gee that guy on the far left is not really getting into the swing of things is he?
- Travis Koger
Travis... bear in mind that we don't know what "main chubby guy's" right hand is doing, or where it's doing whatever it's doing...
- Mark Jepsen
BUT WE CAN INFER WHAT "MAIN CHUBBY GUY'S" HANDS ARE DOING. BOTH OF THEM.
- Sparky Crocker
@Mark, of interest (well not really) is the location of Front Left guy's left hand.

The photo of Akiva in the jacuzzi with the Texas A&M cheerleaders would be so much more popular. Now if only someone would post it.

On Fark, there was this one thread, that just kept growing and growing. On Fark, it was a single page per thread. And you could post images and gif inline. Well the thread wouldn't die, people just kept posting. I forget which one it was. Anyway, it got so monsterous, that few people going to read/post to it per day (which was only a handfull) accounted for 1/3 of the server load of the site. They eventually had to cull that thread.
- Matthew DeVries
I think everyone who has participated in this thread has 'culled' themselves privately.

What with all the copycat images this has inspired I hope our muse continues to stick around and not get lost in the shuffle of so many knockoffs.

SHUT UP SPARKY!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111!!!!

Yes, Sparky, they do not know how good they have it there frolicking on the beach while we freeze up here.. Hard to believe it is only 49 degrees, feels like 29.. I bet it's at least 85 degrees on that beach.

Anyone who doesn't appreciate this thread is clearly not developing a FriendFeed iPhone client because this is a great stress test case. (It crashes BuddyFeed, by the way.)

Also it exercises the crap out of your thumb trying to scroll down to the bottom of it.

Do you need to appreciate the pic in order to appreciate the thread?

Matthew, you may have given some people more reason to keep bumping this thread.
- Victor Ganata
How does it give you thumb exercise? Whatever you're doing, why don't you either use the keyboard or switch to Linux so you can middle-click the scrollbar to jump to where you want? :P
- Tanath
actually this thread does not bother me because I get it in email and gmail groups them and starts new thread after every 100 comments. I have it autoarchived so I do not have to see on phone lol and just see when I look at my ffeed label in gmail.

"hard to believe that Obama's first acknowledgment of this Islamic attack came after patronizing his friends and then since he has not acknowledged at all the cause or philosophy of the attacker. when a terrorist was a pro lifer he did not hold that same restraint. hypocrisy. http://americanpowerblog.blogspot.com/2009...... "Today President Shout-Out said we shouldn't jump to conclusions. "We don't know all the answers yet. And I would caution against jumping to conclusions until we have all the facts," Obama said in a Rose Garden statement otherwise devoted to the economy. Funny but he was willing to reach conclusions within hours of the murder of abortionist George Tiller. Interestingly, it took Him 2 days to issue a statement when a Muslim terrorist killed a soldier at an Army recruitment office in Little Rock, Arkansas.""

"Quran Bukhari (52:256 is in conflict with the accusations of the Goldstone Report and would be against GoldStone's conception of "International Law". Should we assume that Islam is against the Goldstone as well? of course we all know that this international law doesn't exist anyway, but if it did it would outlaw Islam. Since the Organisation of The Islamic Conference was behind the Goldstone Report. I find that ironic. Bukhari (52:256) "The Prophet... was asked whether it was permissible to attack the pagan warriors at night with the probability of exposing their women and children to danger. The Prophet replied, "They (i.e. women and children) are from them (i.e. pagans)."" "Stating that a counter-attack will be disproportionate to the attack isn't a violation of the rule of distinction. The rule of distinction requires that Israel not aim its fire at civilians as such. It has nothing to do with how much fire Israel can aim at legitimate targets."... ..."Even if the facts were as..."

"Hasan, the sole suspect in the massacre of 13 fellow US soldiers in Texas, attended the controversial Dar al-Hijrah mosque in Great Falls, Virginia, in 2001 at the same time as two of the September 11 terrorists, The Sunday Telegraph has learnt. 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. Al-Awlaki moved to Dar al-Hijrah as imam in January, 2001, from the west coast, and three months later the September...

Many of us have empathy for the suffering of Arabs as a result of Palestine. When I see Arab women I see much beauty and I cry when I hear their suffering. It is wrong to assume and attack me for not feeling. Regardless of my conviction that there are innocent people being hurt, I see the greater good in saving as many lives as possible and defend what is being attacked by all sides of it's border. The problem is Goldstone's essential idea is that innocent civilians can not die in a war and if they do then it is a war crime. That idea is a fallacy and does nothing to further the conditions of either side. for certain there are some very powerful kangaroo courts, but there are parallel forums that discredit irrational convictions. trolling and heckling Olmert on a college campus for example did nothing to further the cause of Palestine and if anything showed how tolerant Israel is to criticism. the Olmert heckling came the same month that war crime accusations were dropped in European...
