		<description>[...] Remember him? Former terrorist recruiter turned model British citizen after the London bombings triggered some sort of Pauline conversion in him &#8230; or so he says. I was skeptical when &#8220;60 Minutes&#8221; profiled him in March, but read his op-ed in today&#8217;s Observer and see if you&#8217;re not convinced he&#8217;s for real. One thing about him, for good and/or ill, he&#8217;s obviously an intelligent guy. The excerpt that follows doesn&#8217;t do justice to his piece, which is a thoughtful essay on how to reinterpret Koranic dictates to encourage Muslim assimilation in the west, but it&#8217;s the sort of red meat that might lead people to read the whole thing. When I was still a member of what is probably best termed the British Jihadi Network, a series of semi-autonomous British Muslim terrorist groups linked by a single ideology, I remember how we used to laugh in celebration whenever people on TV proclaimed that the sole cause for Islamic acts of terror like 9/11, the Madrid bombings and 7/7 was Western foreign policy.

		<description>Was his change before or after he watched how a &#039;changed&#039; Jihadi on 24 was able to get right next to The President?

I mean I&#039;ve seen how people can change when finally faced with the reality of things, but when someone is in a cult, they can&#039;t see reality even when it is right in front of them.  What this guy is saying isn&#039;t new information . . has he turned in a list of names and whatnot?

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;British jihadi Hassan Butt renounces terrorism&lt;/blockquote&gt;
I think he was told to strap a bomb on and suddenly had a change of heart.  After all,  72 virgins will still be there waiting to nag him past the nether life when he finally decides to blowup real good.

Enjoy your cake here on earth now cause the icing in the next life will be bitter.

The meek shall inherit the earth, eventually, once they realize the brutality that Islam is.</description>

		<description>The problem with Islam is the Koran and Mohammad&#039;s intolerant, lying, murderous, slave-holding example.

How can you stay in a creed that glorifies terrorism as sanctified, considers women as worth only half of a man, hates art and music, and is utterly anti-intellectual?

&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What are the upsides of that?&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

Great campagin slogan you got there, try pitching that to a few candidates.

I meant you&#039;re better off dead than living under the Taliban.  At what point did I say they should be killed?  Nice try.</description>

		<description>I saw this last night and the one thing that stood out to me more than anything was that he was being told to go to Iraq.  Not Afghanistan, Iraq.

Now if Iraq has nothing to do with al Qaeda, why would al Qaeda send him there of all places?</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t know what to think.  He sounds a little like &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x1jlt8_peyton-manning-united-way-channelsu&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Walid Shoebat&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.daveedgr.com/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Daveed Gartenstein-Ross&lt;/a&gt;.  The only difference is they left Islam altogether.  I don&#039;t know what Hassan sees about Islam is still worth holding on.

I think it was Reagan who said it best, &quot;trust but verify.&quot;  Let&#039;s see what he&#039;s doing a month, six months, one year, and even two years from now.  His actions will eventually show his true intentions.</description>

		<description>Wrong Tactics for the wrong situation to believe this is somehow a ploy.

I believe, based on that, that he is sincere.

What goes on behind the scenes... well... let&#039;s try not to turn into Kos Kiddies. That&#039;s a little far fetched for us, and a mile out of the way for them.</description>

		<description>The boy has found a new god: Profit. Fade, jink, duck. This is all a big smoky mirror meant to do two things....

1. Keep my BUTT outta jail.
2. Make lots and lots of money to give back to Islam.

I wonder how much CBS advertiser money ends up with Hezbollah and Hamas?

He left the &#039;dark&#039; side because the dark side wanted him to embrace his virgins. He believed everything the dark-side told him until he realized he was going to have to practice what he was told to preach. He should be in a chain-gang repairing Jewish headstones.</description>

		<description>&quot;Go to Iraq to basically – the actual word that they used was that I needed &#039;reprogramming.&#039; And Iraq would give me the opportunity to basically be reprogrammed for what I needed I mean.&quot;

Iraq is the central front? Hmmm... who woulda thunk it?

&quot;there&#039;s a big disease, a big problem and a cancer in the Muslim world.&quot;

Yes there is and it&#039;s called Islam? 

Get back to me, Butt, when you take that thing off your head and get a shave.</description>
