Next thing you’ll be asking to allow women to vote…unbelievable. It is that slippery slope thing.

My HamNation producer was busy this week, so Townhall intern Katie Favazza and I cut loose with my digital camera and the editing software I found on my computer. I have new-found respect for YouTubers.
We thought we’d respond to the Democratic……

A short recon of what’s out there that might draw your attention….

I’ve heard the rhetoric prior to this Dec 2006 video – I’ve heard it on documentaries – Some say “we-mid-easterners” need change from the outside – i.e. America-USA — Others say we need it from the inside; and neither side can agree.

I agree with everything on that video – however, I would strongly add that Step 2 would be to include the Women population into the reform; and to do so immediately.

The Iraqi’s have the benefit of our 200 years of practicing democracy and can learn by our mistakes. It’s not much of a hedge against that 1400 years, but it’s a start.

Can’t get the video to work, but the transcripts are strong stuff. I hope we hear alot more from this and like minded persons.

I wish we would hear this stuff from the Libs of this country. Moonbats like Sheehan et al.

Will be interesting to see if he stays alive if he truly does believe what he is saying.

The problem is that, in my opinion, Islam and democracy are not compatable. Islamic doctrine is not only a religion but a political entity that tolerates none but itself, and requires subjugation or elimination of all others.

I am at a loss to see how even Iyad Jamal al-Din (can we add a Wow! in his name somewhere?) can reconcile Islam with democracy.

Wow.

Dittos.

I know you are being facetious by saying he’s the “last decent man in Iraq,” but as you know, that would be the lib media’s position.

I know where you were going with that one Debbie, but I hate to say that the lib media’s position would be that this guy is the Anti-Christ. They’re most likely wishing for his death as we type. Pro-American and pro-Bush words do not digest well in the belly of a traitor.

Meet Iyad Jamal al-Din.
Unlike a number of the other Shiite imams we see and hear in the news today, al-Din, a secularist and member of the Iraqi Parliament, is a brilliant traditional liberal and democratic thinker, a selfless and decent man who is w…

Red flag phrase: now believed
That would be a lawyer talking so he could get out of it later,”I didn’t say were, I said believed!”
Well is it TRUE?
That’s not Associated Press-Talk is it? That unbiased font of virtual knowledge, courtesy of the Left?

naliaka, you make a very good point. That is used just like unnamed sources all the time. I shall be on the lookout for that little phrase.

Not sure how dressing like a typical Shi’ite imam constitutes “dressing like a Sadrist.” That’s the way ALL Shi’ite Imams from Iraq and Iran dress. And even Shi’ite Shiekhs Fadlallah and Nasrallah in Lebanon dress that way. Since they’ve all been doing so for decades–long before Sadr was born–it’s not “dressing like a Sadrist.” It’s dressing like what he is–an imam. That’s the standard uniform. With a nickname like Allah Pundit, this should be a basic for you. But, strangely, it isn’t. Hmmm . . .

Debbie, Allah has been a little stressed lately. He is the only kitty in the litter box most of the time. (touching the monkey relieves stress) ;-)
