There "is" a war going on... This is not a religious issue, this is a political issue, its a military system, its a legal system, its a dietary system, its a social system,...

Subject: [victory_for_our_troops] [Take Our Country Back] Pamela Geller Reams Them a New Orifice

Pamela Geller Reams Them a New Orifice. Pamela Geller is fast, frustrated & furious in this 40 minute video she reams indolent society a badly needed new orifice. She has much more than she can say in such a short time, but she gives us a very good outline, drawing her points together to form a circle which encompasses the globe full of issues.
Its war, and you are an army of one. Pamela is your General. She gives you your orders: learn and teach others. If you do nothing more, at least watch this video and share it with everyone who will listen. Thanks and a tip of the hat to Front Page Magazinehttp://frontpagemag.com/2011/09/23/pamela-geller-wednesday-morning-club/ (Note: For your convenience I've posted the video below. ~ Norm)

Reading the Qur'an is not easy because it is archaic, redundant and jumbled, lacking context & chronology. The Noble Qur'an, translated by Hilali & Khan, is reputed to be 95% accurate and contains parenthetical expressions from tafsirs and the translator's footnotes. Several Surahs are essential to understanding the malignantly militant nature of Islam: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 33, 47, 48, 49 & 61. You can select them from a pick list at the top of the page.
Hadith are sayings of Muhammad, passed down from mouth to ear by his companions. They have been collected by several scholars, the most widely accepted collection being that of Bukhari. Like the Qur'an, hadith collections suffer from redundancy. Begin with Books 52, 53 & 59, then read the others if you have sufficient patience.
Tafsir are scholarly explanations of the Qur'an. They use parallel verses and relevant ahadith to clarify the verses. Tafsir Ibn Kathir is fairly complete and easily accessible. You can select the Surahs listed above and read them instead of the Qur'an & hadith to save time and effort.
Islamic biography and history are also important, but less easily accessible than the Qur'an, hadith and tafsir. Craig Winn compiled selections of the canon into a 1000 page book with the quotes compiled into handy appendices "The Prophet of Doom".
For those lacking the time, patience and ambition to tackle the large tomes, there is a short book which encapsulates the most essential information: Suhas Majumdar's "Jihad: The Islamic Doctrine of Permanent War".
Pamela Geller raises the issue of Shari'ah: Islamic law based on the Qur'an & hadith. Much of it is arcane, dealing with matters of prayer & ritual purity. The really important parts deal with "justice", marriage & divorce. It will be easier for you go go to Amazon and buy a hard copy of Reliance of the Traveller. If you can tolerate a low resolution scan and large, pdf, this link will get you into Chapter 9 of Book O; "Justice".You can scroll up to Books N & M.
If you delve deeply into Reliance, you will discover that divorce is affected by the husband's thrice repeating "I divorce you". You will discover that a father can force his virgin, pre-pubescent daughter to marry the man of his choice. You will learn that a Christian woman married to a Muslim can not obtain child custody in divorce.

Fraud and Virus Warning

Service Update (Updated November 13, 2008) We have become aware of a fraudulent e-mail being sent that says it is coming from UPS and leads the reader to believe that a UPS shipment could not be delivered. The reader is advised to open an attachment reportedly containing a waybill for the shipment to be picked up. This email attachment contains a virus. We recommend that you do not open the attachment, but delete the email immediately. UPS may send official notification messages on occasion, but they rarely include attachments. What to Do if You Receive a Suspicious E-mail If you receive a fraudulent or suspicious e-mail that claims to be from UPS, do not respond or select any links associated with the e-mail. Please report the activity by forwarding the e-mail to fraud@ups.com and delete the original. Note: When forwarding the suspicious e-mail, do not modify the original subject line or contents enclosed and do not include any personal or confidential information. Protect Yourself Against Fraud UPS strives to keep you informed of e-mail scams that attempt to collect confidential information or invoke actions that are not in the best interest of our customers. We are aware that occasionally individuals or companies will fraudulently misrepresent themselves as UPS, and will target people through the unauthorized use of our brand name, trademarks, and logos. Recognizing Fraud Schemes Fraudulent e-mails assume many different forms and are the unauthorized actions of third parties not associated with UPS. E-mail messages referred to as "phishing" or "spoofing" are becoming more common and may appear legitimate by incorporating company brands, colors, or other legal disclaimers. Please be advised that UPS does not request payments or personal information in an unsolicited manner through e-mail or mail in exchange for the transportation of goods or services. UPS accepts no responsibility for any costs or charges incurred inappropriately as a result of fraudulent activity. Awareness and recognition of fraudulent e-mails is vital to protecting yourself against theft and other related crimes. Common indicators that an e-mail might be fraudulent include the following: Design Flaws: An e-mail containing distorted or irregularly sized logos or brands Poor Grammar: Grammatical errors and excessive use of exclamation points Misspellings: Incorrectly spelled words and/or links to altered websites. For example, modifications or variations of the www.ups.com website address, such as www.UPS.com/US or www.UPScompany.com. Sense of Urgency: Alarming messages requesting immediate action, such as "Your account will be suspended within 24 hours." or "Contact us immediately to claim your parcel or prize." Unexpected Requests: A request attempting to obtain money, financial information (i.e., bank account or credit card numbers), or personal information in exchange for the delivery of a package or other article Communication: An e-mail that does not provide an alternative method for communicating the requested information (i.e., telephone, mail, or physical locations) Fraud Prevention Measures At UPS, we are committed to protecting the interests of the communities we serve. Provided below are basic steps to prevent e-mail and Internet-related fraud schemes: Never respond to e-mails or select Web links from any unknown source that requires you to provide, update, or verify personal, financial, or other confidential information. Use a secure Internet browser. Create strong passwords by using a combination of letters and numbers. Always use up-to-date virus protection software and consider using spyware detection programs. Equip your computer with either a software or hardware firewall. Do not access confidential information at Internet cafes, public libraries, etc. If you are using a wireless device, be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions on establishing the services and settings to ensure a protective level of security.
