DAR AL HARB - U.S.A.: AMERICA'S HOMEGROWN ISLAMIC JIHAD HAS BEEN DUBBED "PEPSI JIHAD"

Well, I think that the Pepsi people should be damned upset that these politically correct half-wits have called America's homegrown terrorism problem the "PEPSI JIHAD"...

Melting Pot Helps Fight "Pepsi Jihad"
Intelligence Officials Say America's Inclusiveness Helps To Dampen Terror Risks

Though the United States is not immune to the grass-roots extremism that has inspired attacks in Europe, the inclusiveness of American society may help against radical Islam's spread here, intelligence officials said Thursday.

Philip Mudd, a senior official in the FBI's National Security Branch, termed the U.S. domestic threat a "Pepsi jihad" — an outgrowth of extremism he said has spread among young people over the past 15 years and has been popularized by the Internet.

"We see in this country on the East Coast, on the West Coast and the center of this country — kids who have no contact with al Qaeda but who are radicalized by the ideology," Mudd said.

Dipping into subject matter that is unusual for intelligence professionals, Mudd and CIA Director Michael Hayden agreed that the United States needs to preserve its melting-pot heritage to help reduce the threat.

The country's history as an immigrant nation and its "experience with bringing in various groups and giving them, frankly, more opportunity than they might have elsewhere has helped us immeasurably" in dampening extremism, Hayden said.

[Fools, the only reason that jihad is not yet a huge threat in the United States as it is in Europe is because Americans are ARMED and will shoot a jihadist if they have a reason to do it and because there are 300 million Americans and maybe 4 million moslems, they are outnumbered and are not yet strong enough to cause problems...Fools the whole lot of them...ed. A.I.]

The assessment came during the intelligence leaders' wide-ranging annual review of global threats before the House Intelligence Committee. Five top intelligence officials covered issues from Iran and Iraq to government eavesdropping and al Qaeda.

...

The lawmakers pressed the intelligence officials on Iranian intentions.

Hayden said Tehran has a substantial presence in Iraq — "not just diplomatic or commercial, but representatives of the Revolutionary Guard Corps and the Iranian intelligence service."

While U.S. analysts once put a less hostile face on Iranian efforts, "I've come to a much darker interpretation of Iranian actions in the past 12 to 18 months," Hayden said.

Now, he believes, the Iranians want to punish the United States and tie it down in Iraq so its options in the region — and against Iran — are limited.

Negroponte said Iran since 2003 has been emboldened by the situation in Iraq and the end of Saddam Hussein's rule, its increased oil revenues and other factors. The United States believes that Iran still considers the threat of terrorism a key element of its national security strategy.

...

So does that mean that the United States of America is going to drop everything when the mullahs of Iran threaten one of America's allies with a nuke attack?!? A little nuclear blackmail in the future, not that this is a great surprise to me...

WOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ! ! !

DAR AL HABR - U.S.A. - GEORGIA: IGNORANT INFIDELS CAN FUEL TERRORISM

Ignorance of Islam can fuel terrorism
By Tom Nichols

Can Islam in the east and Christians and Jews in the west peacefully coexist? Or is the world headed for an inevitable World War III with a clash of eastern and western civilizations?

Nobody knows the answer.

[I know the answer and it is NO, ISLAM CANNOT COEXIST PEACEFULLY WITH ANY INFIDEL OR INFIDEL NATION...1400 yrs of islams jihad history should have given Mr. Nichols a clue, but it is better to blame it on the ignorant infidel than on the actual perps - - - moslems & their 'holy' books...ed. A.I.]

To consider whether East and West can live in peace, we have to look at another quotation from the Quran: "Fight and slay the pagans wherever you find them." (Sura 9:5). Some believe that this verse seems to support calls for jihad (holy war) against infidels.

We have to be realistic about our situation. America was the first country to recognize the new state of Israel after the British withdrew from their Palestine Mandate. We strongly support Israel and will probably never abandon that country. Most Arabs want the Jews to leave and return Israeli lands to them.

American movies, the Internet, our huge companies (from oil to Wal-Mart to KFC) do influence others. Many Muslims in the Middle East see us as being imperial, a modern day Britain seeking to dominate the world.

American banking and finance tend to favor our interests and sometimes ignore those foreign interests that oppose our own interests. American military might is spread all over the world.

Because of our overwhelming military might, no state is likely to declare war on the United States and risk certain defeat.

Therefore the main threat to world peace does not come from states (though a nuclear Iran or North Korea might threaten war with neighbors). The main threat today comes from small groups of terrorists, some of who see in the Quran a command from God to kill pagans, and they see the United States and our allies as being pagan, embodying the "Great Satan."

We need to know more about Islam. We need to communicate our own intentions better, in a nonthreatening way.

But we must remain strong enough to defend ourselves and develop military strategies for each unique situation. These strategies must combine military with diplomatic and economic actions that demonstrate our humanitarian desire to help others improve living conditions.

America has a growing number of Muslim citizens. They deserve equality of treatment under our Constitution. With them we can establish an example of how we can live together in a world in which we all share benefits and responsibilities.

Most Muslims are not terrorists. But a few terrorists can cause great damage, as in 9/11, British subway blasts, and Spanish train explosions.

If we continue our ignorance of Islam, we will encourage terrorism by Muslim militants.

See you stupid & ignorant redneck infidels, it's all your fault because you gave the world the internet, movies, Wal-Mart, K-mart, Coca Cola, Pepsi, you put a man on the Moon, you have functioning rovers on Mars, etc...etc...etc...

If you just gave it all up to the ummah, they would not slaughter you as their god allah commands...

TERRORISM IS ALL YOUR FAULT ! ! ! ! ! ! !
