Saudi religious policeman: 120 lashes for having six wives

“A court in Saudi Arabia has sentenced a man to 120 lashes for having six wives at the same time.

Muslim men can keep up to four wives at a time under sharia, or Islamic law, which is applied in Saudi Arabia. Reports say the unnamed man worked for the country’s religious police. At his trial, the defendant claimed he did not know he was breaking the law.

The man was also banned from leading prayers and ordered to read two chapters of the Koran.

Reports said that the accused was a member of the 5,000-strong Saudi Committee for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice.”

The Battle for America’s Border and Security

“Without shunning the race hustlers and pop-culture sham artists, without protecting our borders, language, and culture, the nation that once was the “land of the free and home of the brave” and the “one last hope of mankind” will repeat the catastrophic mistakes of the past. “

Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) betrays America on immigration

“The Conservative Political Action Conference, or CPAC, is meeting in Washington, D.C., this weekend to hear well-known political leaders like Dick Cheney and Newt Gingrich talk about prospects for electoral victories in 2010.

The best example of how CPAC 2010 has failed the conservative movement is CPAC’s attempt to redefine (sabotage would be a more accurate term) the potent issues of illegal immigration and border security.

Whereas grass-roots conservatives and millions of 912 patriots – along with 80 percent of the American people – understand the need for border security as a precondition for immigration reform, CPAC board member Grover Norquist is busy launching a new project in support of the Obama administration’s plan to grant another amnesty to 20 million illegal aliens.

Neither border control nor immigration enforcement was included as a topic for any of the CPAC general sessions.

CAIR: Dominant, not Equal

“Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any other faiths, but to become domlninant. The Koran, the Muslim book of scripture, should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth”

– Omar Ahmad, Co-Founder of the Council on Almerican-Islalmic Relations (CAIR)

From the book, “Beware of Imams Bearing Gifts of Peace and Tolerance: From Terror to Dhimmitude”

Dad accused in ‘honor killing’ will not face death penalty

“A Glendale man accused of slaying his daughter in an “honor killing” will not face the death penalty.

The Iraqi immigrant is accused of slaying his daughter, 20-year-old Noor Almaleki, for being “too Westernized.”

Police say he used his Jeep Cherokee to run down his daughter and another woman in a Peoria parking lot Oct. 20. Noor Almaleki later died of her injuries.

Prosecutors said Almaleki has admitted killing his daughter because she disgraced the family by not following traditional Iraqi or Muslim values.”

Walther PK380

http://www.gunnuts-tng.com/2009/01/walther-pk380.html

A first look at the Walther PK380.

Ever since I bought my Walther P22 oh so many years ago, I’ve been wishing that Walther would make a polymer framed gun with a steel slide and barrel that was about the same size at the P22, but chambered for a more reasonable defensive cartridge, such as .32 ACP or .380 ACP. I’ve wanted this gun for all kinds of reasons, not the least of which is that my wife loves the P22 and would carry it if it wasn’t a .22 (and notoriously finicky).

Today, my prayers have been answered. Meet the Walther PK380.

Warfighting 101

From: Mark Alexander

“A universal peace … is in the catalogue of events, which will never exist but in the imaginations of visionary philosophers, or in the breasts of benevolent enthusiasts.” –James Madison

I spent much of the last week participating in a national security forum organized by the Air War College and hosted by the Twelfth Air Force and the 355th Fighter Wing at Davis-Monthan AFB.

Discussing the challenges of Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) and the surge for Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) in Afghanistan with command personnel makes for lively debate, but the best part of these forums is incidental — the opportunity to meet many enlisted airmen and those flying the planes they make ready.

I have been on military bases across the nation, and without fail I am most impressed by the young uniformed Patriots who are the foundation of our military might. Simply put, their dedication, talent and spirit are second to none.

A Mosque Grows in Tucson

From Phyrfight

I drove past a mosque in downtown Tucson this week. There is an 18th century Spanish Mission about 9 miles away and the mosque, which appears to have a prefab fiberglass dome, is right next to a big catholic church. I can imagine some factory overseas where they turn out fiberglass mosque domes by the hundreds.

Seeing this unexpected island of Islam surrounded by a sea of Catholicism made me think how angry the hundreds of millions of true believers of Islam must be at Osama. If he had not been so anxious to bring about jihad, the steady and inevitable spread of Islam would have gone on mostly unnoticed by the work-a-day world.

The following conversation took place before the collapse of the Soviet Union and long before the “War on Terror”.

From Confessions of an Economic Hit Man, p 52. John Perkins is speaking with a woman in Indonesia.

“But why should there be such animosity between Muslims and Christians?” I asked. … “Because,” she said …”the West—especially its leader, the U.S.—is determined to take control of all the world, to become the greatest empire in history. It has already gotten very close to succeeding. The Soviet Union currently stands in its way, but the Soviets will not endure. Toynbee* could see that. They have no religion, no faith, no substance behind their ideology. History demonstrates that faith—soul, a belief in higher powers—is essential. We Muslims have it. We have it more than anyone else in the world, even more than the Christians. So we wait. We grow strong.” *Reference to Arnold Toynbee’s Civilization on Trial and The World and the West.
