If you want to know what the Arab world really thinks about the Western world, you have got to watch this. It’s pretty long but it’s an incredible eye-opener and …

According to the mainstream media, who (since “Jihad in America” in the ’90’s ran on PBS) have found the topic too terrifying to approach, no one needs to do such stories.

Nor be concerned with the imperialistic jihadist agenda. Or the homicidal Koranic commands that lead to “Allah”-sanctified terrorism (Sura 9:5, et al).

Saudi stockholders vetoing such investigative journalism on the media’s directorships?

So, in the face of such colossal denial, KUDOS to Glenn for showing the cruel innerds of the so-called ‘religion of peace’.

For those who note that Glenn continues to think Islam has been distorted/twisted/perverted by jihadists:

If Islam was ‘hijacked’ it was by Mohammad.

Its orthodox course has simply be resumed by the militants.

They have steered Islam back to its original co-ordinates: the empire-by-the-sword/kill-the-infidels Conquest Mode.

Glenn needs to record the Koran (for a free downloadable audio file to “help spread the dread” from his website) and maybe, as he speaks the “prophet”’s absrud words onto tape, it’ll dawn on him that the Koran itself is the vengeful playbook of a pedophile warlord, not the Muslim equivalent of the Beatitudes or a Sunni/Shi’ite Songs of Solomon.

Its hard to believe what a sterile and backward and petty and vicious volume it is until you dare to open it.

(Something Mohammad could never do, since he was illiterate. And because the Koran was not collected into a ‘book’ until after his death, so, essentially, he had no idea what his “Recitation” ever turned into.)

Let’s hope the floodgates of hard info about Islam’s dark dogmas will now open in the “No One In Here But Us Chickens” Media.

The West’s studious ignorance on the subject is shameful.

And, if it continues, suicidal.

And if you go to Glenn’s site you’ll see the open letter that shows just what the ratings were for Wednesday night. The show mo’ naturally kicked ass. Because it did, we’re going to see a lot more shows like it. And America will be better educated and informed because of it.

I also noticed that FNC is going to re-air their Obsession special this weekend, so the powers that be are starting to notice the market and hunger for this kind of information.

The islamists and jihadis should be very scared right now. Information is the direct antithesis to islam.

Thanks Glenn for having the balls and backbone of steel to stand up, put it all on the line, and speak the plain truth.

Is someone in slavery, if they don’t know they are enslaved?

Isn’t that what they said about SNL spoofing Peolosi?

Glenn Beck is dead right about the ‘yes but’ muslims. They are the enemy dressed up nice for business, but don’t leave them with a room full of impressionable young minds.

Well goody goody for FOX. And on YouTube too, well wup de friggen do. Glenn may have had his show aired long ago if he didn’t have to go thru fire to get it on. He has been telling us about this crap since I can remember, but could not get anyone to give a serious listen. And at least he has the guts to put his name on the story. Who did the Obsession piece? Some ghost producer at FOX. I believe Glen has put his life in danger for doing this, and for that I applaud him. Some people just don’t appreciate anything!

Wake up and smell the jihad……

The threat of oppression, on the other hand, does not necessarily entail direct violence, but gradual social incursion and demands for cultural submission backed by the implication of violence. For instance, a television executive who feels compelled not to air a cartoon image of Mohammed due to fear of Islamic retaliation has been effectively oppressed, even though he has not actually experienced a violent act. The threat of violence is necessarily involved, but it is invoked as a conditional form of retaliation should the target fail to submit, not as a direct end in and of itself.

Brilliantly stated.

What does the Khoran say? How did the muslims get all the way to Yugoslavia? Also look for the History Channel’s “Saddam & the Third Reich”.

I get angry with the press and MSM when I think about how little they reveal about these issues. I mean really f**k OJ.

Isn’t it funny how many “because you asked” segments there are on the news now. Like they want to blame us for their bogus reporting.

Say what you want about the BBC – the problem is becoming so serious across the pond that they will have to do a lot more on Islamist. CNN may not follow suit until they feel the pressure to imitate (I don’t think a terrorist attack will do it).

Oppression from islam (no matter the subset) would come violently, so I never distinguish the two.

Am I wrong?

You aren’t wrong in that oppression necessarily comes with the backing of implied violence. However, I believe the discussion is of current Islamic tactics for the conquest of the west.

Framed that way, I would see the threat of violence as refers to actual acts of terrorism and war–for instance, events like 9/11/01 or (should it happen) an Iranian nuclear first strike on Israel. These are direct actions aimed at destroying lives and property to weaken non-Muslim states. This is the domain of the Jihadis.

The threat of oppression, on the other hand, does not necessarily entail direct violence, but gradual social incursion and demands for cultural submission backed by the implication of violence.

Glenn Beck admits he is playing catch up – like much of the media.

No doubt about it, but that’s actually a pretty big step in the right direction.

Agreed! Understand 1% of 1.8 Billion is a great threat to the U.S. & the world. As for me, I WILL NOT SUBMIT!!!

Most of the clips shown were in Obsession (thanks to MEMRI). The interviews were more focused on the point that Moriarty makes. Glenn Beck admits he is playing catch up – like much of the media.

What should be noted is that this did not show on the main CNN channel. What is more is that it is even more watered down than the FOX version.

So don’t get excited – the MSM is not ready to deal, yet.

did you ever think that the women … are forced to do the things they do and are afraid to stand up and say anything becase they fear for there life?

Easy, Rocked. They are not defending their oppression out of fear. They do not perceive it as oppression! These women believe that they are being pious in their religion.

Oppression assumes that Islam is the dominant religion/government, as in women in Iran are oppressed by the Islamists. (The question remains, are people oppressed if they don’t think they are oppressed? Hard for me to understand, but there have been many cases in European Muslim communities where women have fought to keep the veil.)

did you ever think that the women are so opressed is because their education level is lower than that of our troops?

or maybe their brain washed like you? you think that George W connected Saddam to 9/11, so the MSM brain washed you.

or maybe they are forced to do the things they do and are afraid to stand up and say anything becase they fear for there life?

…I can’t speak to things Islamic, but I can to *MY* people…and there’re women in trailer parks all over America who fight just as fiercely to keep themselves and their kids in the same doublewide with the drunken jerk who beats and berates ‘em.

Stockholm syndrome?

Glenn Beck is my favorite alarmist; it was a great special.

What surprised me is that he was on Rush’s show on Wednesday to promote the special. I don’t recall Rush ever having someone on to promote something (he barely ever has guests at all).

He PRIDES himself on it, in fact. I think RUSH is FINALLY REALIZING the power he wields—and hopefully will use it for good. I was STUNNED when I heard him (a GUEST!)on RUSH’S show, I almost wrecked the car.
