Obama calls for 'new beginning' with Muslim world

The Washington Times
By Christina Bellantoni

To punctuate his call for a two-state solution to end the stalemate between Israelis and Palestinians, Mr. Obama used the often avoided term "Palestine."

He lauded the unbreakable bond between the United States and Israel but said "the pain of dislocation" for Palestinian people who live daily without peace or security is "intolerable," and pledged America would not turn its back on them.

"The only resolution is for the aspirations of both sides to be met," he said, to applause, promising he would pursue that solution with patience.

"For peace to come it is time for them and all of us to live up to our responsibilities," he said.

He said Hamas must put an end to violence, recognize past agreements, and recognize Israels right to exist.

But in a line that drew applause, Mr. Obama repeated his promise the United States would not accept the legitimacy of continued Israeli settlements along the West Bank.

MEXICO CITY, April 27 -- Mexican officials outlined a steadily deteriorating situation Monday with the suspected death toll from swine flu rising to 149 people, prompting a decision to shut down all schools nationwide for more than a week and vastly limit public gatherings in the country that has been at the center of the international crisis. "We are in the most critical moment of this epidemic, and the number of cases, unfortunately, will continue increasing," Health Secretary José Ángel Córdova said at a news conference. "We will reinforce preventative measures and pay the necessary attention to contain it."

Gore endorses Obama and promises to help him

FLINT, Mich. (AP) - Al Gore is endorsing Barack Obama and promising to help the Democrat achieve what eluded him—the presidency. In a letter to be e-mailed to Obama supporters, the former vice president and Nobel Prize winner wrote, "From now through Election Day, I intend to do whatever I can to make sure he is elected president of the United States."
In 2000, Gore won the popular vote but lost the disputed 2000 election to George W. Bush, who captured Florida and its electoral votes after a divided Supreme Court ended the recount. Since then, Gore has made combatting global warming his signature issue, and has been recognized worldwide for his effort—from an Academy Award for a documentary for his effort to the Nobel prize.

"Over the past 18 months, Barack Obama has united a movement. He knows change does not come from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue or Capitol Hill. It begins when people stand up and take action," Gore wrote. "With the help of millions of supporters like you, Barack Obama will bring the change we so desperately need in order to solve our country's most pressing problems."

The former vice president also asked for donations to help fund Obama's effort—the first time he's asked members of his Web site AlGore.com to contribute to a political campaign.

Gore is one of the most popular figures in the Democratic Party, but he kept a low profile in the primary campaign. He's planning to appear with Obama at a rally in Detroit Monday night.

Taliban prisoners freed in Afghan prison suicide attack: officials

From AFP

KANDAHAR, Afghanistan (AFP) — Taliban rebels blasted into a prison using a suicide car bomb and guns late Friday, freeing as many as hundreds of militant prisoners and killing at least two guards, officials said.

The brazen attack under cover of darkness ripped through the front entrance of the main jail in the insurgency-hit southern city of Kandahar, Justice Minister Sarwar Danish told AFP.

The raid is a blow to President Hamid Karzai, coming one day after world donors pledged 20 billion dollars to rebuild Afghanistan at a conference in Paris but also called on him to strengthen the rule of law.

"A suicide attacker drove his way into the main gate of the prison, it was very strong and destroyed the gate and two sides of the surrounding wall," Danish told AFP.

He said it was followed by an "armed attack inside the prison."

"A number of prisoners have been taken away from the prison. We don't know exactly how many people were in the prison and how many prisoners have managed to escape," he said, adding that an investigation was underway.

An Afghan intelligence official told AFP on condition of anonymity that around 600 prisoners were believed to have escaped but that the final figure had yet to be confirmed.

TRENTON, N.J. - A Muslim student who sued because his public high school graduation ceremony was held in a Baptist church has received an apology from the largest school district in New Jersey and assurances that it will not hold future events in houses of worship.

Bilal Shareef said he had to skip his 2006 graduation from West Side High School because his religious beliefs prohibit him from entering buildings containing icons of God.

Victim advocates concerned about abortion measure

ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH
04/22/2008

JEFFERSON CITY — An abortion bill approved by the Missouri House on Monday is drawing the ire of some advocates of rape victims, who normally try to stay out of the political fray surrounding the explosive issue.

The bill would make coercing someone to have an abortion a crime. The head of a coalition against domestic violence said that provision could be interpreted in a way that would prevent women who have been abused from having an abortion.

"There are elements of the bill that appear to pose some very grave consequences for rape victims and victims of domestic violence," said Colleen Coble, director of the Missouri Coalition Against Domestic and Sexual Violence.


House Bill 1831, sponsored by Rep. Bob Onder, R-Lake Saint Louis, is Missouri Right to Life's top legislative priority. It passed 113-33 and requires Senate approval.

Onder maintains the bill protects women.

Is Islam Really Conservative?

As we all know - Muslims like to portray Islam as a conservative religion. But is it really? If you think about it, no -- not really. If you look at a country where there is a large Muslim population you will see many of them voting democratic and having a revolutionary view on the government. The Qu'ran does command Muslims to be “disobedient towards the unbelievers and their governments and strive against the unbelievers with great endeavor.” (Koran 25:52) In fact, Islam can probably fit perfectly with the anti-government lyrics of the rock band Rage against the Machine.


Look at all the people that support Islam. QUIT! or Queers Undermining Israeli Terrorism states on their website: "Like all people of conscience, we in the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender communities are deeply concerned about the use of our tax dollars to support the violent, repressive and racist regime in Israel. "




They refuse to support the Israeli government and "the construction of exclusively Jewish settlements and the closure of the occupied territories, which threatens the health, safety and economic stability of the entire Palestinian population. "


They want to "end all financial and military aid to Israel." They try to be balanced and say that they "don’t support attacks on unarmed [Israeli] civilians. At the same time it must be understood that it is the right of any occupied people to resist and fight for their freedom, in fact it is their duty. " and "the 500 Palestinians killed since September 2000, nearly all have been civilians. The majority of the 100 Israelis killed in the same period have been soldiers." I am not saying that the Israeli soldiers are perfect, but at least the Israeli government takes responsibility for its wrongdoings. We do know that the Palestinian side is far more brutal and does not take responsibility for their actions. So I assume that QUIT! would have no sympathy for the Sargent Nir Kahane who was murdered by getting stabbed in his neck by a Palestinian in cold blood.


Noam Chomsky is another great example. Here's a man who opposes the U.S's "war on drugs" and capitalism. In an interview, Noam said that "we should recognize that the policies of Hamas are more forthcoming and more conducive to a peaceful settlement than those of the United States or Israel." When we hear words like this I can't help but think that the revolutionary views of the far left are no different then those of Islam.


The North American Man/Boy Love Association has stated that they wish to "end the oppression of men and boys who have freely chosen mutually consenting relationships," (Radow, Roy (1994). 'NAMBLA Replies to ILGA Secretariat.) Yes, many Muslims oppose homosexuality -- but not in the afterlife which contains "boys of perpetual freshness: if thou seest them, thou wouldst think them scattered pearls" (Koran 76:19) and "Round about them will serve, to them, boys (handsome) as pearls well-guarded. " (Koran 52:24) These verses are in the Qu'ran in order to please the homosexuals who are martyred or want to be martyred. To prove my point of Arabia's homosexuality, here is the poem Perfumed Garden by Abu Nuwas: "A lad whom all can see girt with sword and belt not like your whore who has to go veiled.Make for smooth-faced boys and do your very best to mount them, for women are the mounts of the devils."


Yes we know of Islam's extreme sexism. Islam's prophet of Islam - Muhammad even said (speaking of a vision in which he saw hell-fire): "But the companions of the Fire were ordered to be taken to the Fire. Then I stood at the gate of the Fire and saw that the majority of those who entered it were women." (Volume 7, Book 62, Number 124, Narrated Usama.) But is feminism or "women's lib" immune to criticism? Interesting story, when I was about thirteen-years old I asked my far-left art teacher Mr. Gross: "If the whole world turned gay then how would the population increase?" He replied with this: "Easy! Sperm insemination." So while the whole world is homosexual, the earth would need some female body factories to keep up the population, how feminist of him! The Bible talks about the spirit of misogyny as satanic: "And I will put enmity between thee [Satan] and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel." (Genesis 3:15) With all the psychological, birth, and emotional problems abortion can have, the pro-choice advocates will support abortion to the death.
Also with misogyny, Aleister Crowley is one of history's greatest Satan worshippers. He was a drug addict, a hater of Jesus Christ, and a fanatic Muslim. He once wrote: ". . . it [anal intercourse with men] . . . avoids contact with inferior planes [women and babies--families]; that it is self-sufficient, that it involves no responsibilities, and that it leaves its masters not only stronger in themselves, but wholly free to fulfill their essential Nature." (Magick in Theory and Practice cap IV, fn. p 27.)


I bet Mr. Crowley would read with delight (since he loved to recite the Qu'ran) what the Qu'ran says: "Men have authority over women because God has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them [So its all about the money]. Good women are obedient. They guard their unseen parts because God has guarded them. As for those from whom you fear disobedience, admonish them and send them to beds apart and beat them." (Surah 4:35)
Contrary to the Bible where it reads: "Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them." (Colossians 3:19)


Also in the Bible, Jesus says that He hates divorce: "Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her. And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery." (Mark 10:11-12)


Where in Islam, it takes a more liberal stance:


"Aisha said that the lady came wearing a green veil and complained to her (Aisha) and showed her a green spot on her skin caused by beating. It was the habit of ladies to support each other, so when Allah's messenger came, Aisha said, 'I have not seen any woman suffering as much as the believing women. Look! Her skin is greener than her clothes!' When Abdur-Rahman heard that his wife had gone to the prophet, he came with his two sons from another wife. She said, 'By Allah! I have done no wrong to him, but he is impotent and is as useless to me as this,' holding and showing the fringe of her garment. Abdur-Rahman said, 'By Allah, O Allah's messenger! She has told a lie. I am very strong and can satisfy her, but she is disobedient and wants to go back to Rifaa.' Allah's messenger said to her, 'If that is your intention, then know that it is unlawful for you to remarry Rifaa unless Abdur-Rahman has had sexual intercourse with you.'"
But don't get me wrong. Islam has its conservative values of women dressing modestly, and so does Christianity - which goes back to my point - the far left feminist and others of the left don't seem to care about Islam's female veil on account that the Muslims and the far-left have the same mission -- to destroy Christianity.


Its much like what the well-known Darwinist John Maynard Smith once stated writing on Stephen Jay Gould (another Darwinist):


"Gould occupies a rather curious position, particularly on his side of the Atlantic. Because of the excellence of his essays, he has come to be seen by non-biologists as the preeminent evolutionary theorist. In contrast, the evolutionary biologists with whom I have discussed his work tend to see him as a man whose ideas are so confused as to be hardly worth bothering with, but as one who should not be publicly criticized because he is at least on our side against the creationists." (The New York Review, November 30, 1995.)

Cannabis raises risk of psychosis

Frequent cannabis use during adolescence and young adulthood raises the risk of psychotic symptoms later in life, research suggests.

The risk was much higher in young people who were already genetically vulnerable to developing psychosis.

...After adjusting for factors such as social and economic status and use of other drugs, tobacco, and alcohol, the researchers found cannabis use moderately increased the risk of psychotic symptoms.
