LiveLeak today courageously restored hosting of FITNA, the powerful film that shows how many Imams, preaching hate per their understanding of the Koran, radicalize Muslims so that individual radical Islamists feel compelled to attempt to kill non-Muslims. I previously posted that only Islam produces such numbers of mass murderers; this video shows why that is.
LiveLeak previously removed FITNA from its servers due to death threats it received from radical Islamists. It restored the video after taking security measures to protect its employees:
On the 28th of March LiveLeak.com was left with no other choice but to remove the film "fitna" from our servers following serious threats to our staff and their families. Since that time we have worked constantly on upgrading all security measures thus offering better protection for our staff and families. With these measures in place we have decided to once more make this video live on our site. We will not be pressured into censoring material which is legal and within our rules.
The primary duty of the government is to protect the safety and security of the citizens.
At this time government is falling short of achieving these goals. Our government is not yet doing enough to protect our rights to free speech. LiveLeak has had to courageously defend our free speech by using it in the face of such threats.
This is becoming like the wild west, when many citizens had to carry guns on a daily basis to defend themselves from attack - because there was little protection for citizens from those who threatened them.
The government must catch up to the strategy used by radical Islam, a strategy which has never before been used to attack the freedom of this country.
As in the first sentence of this post, the strategy is easy to describe:
Relevant supporting links:
According to one FBI agent interviewed in Ronald Kessler's new book The Terrorist Watch, about one in ten of the United States' 2,000 mosques are believed to preach hatred. That number was higher before 9/11, however, as radicals now seek to evade U.S. intelligence agencies.
But the problem extends beyond mosques. Islamic schools play a role, too. According to scholar Daniel Pipes, a Saudi textbook at the Islamic Saudi Academy of Alexandria, VA, teaches first graders that, "all religions, other than Islam, are false, including that of the Jews [and] Christians," while books used by New York City's Muslims schools include, "sweeping condemnations of Jews and Christians."
A new report issued by the New York Police Department indicates that radical Islam continues to have an appeal among Manhattan's Muslims, often through "informal groups or clusters of young men…usually associated with a particular venue - community center, non-governmental organization, university group, housing project, café or even a particular mosque." NYPD also noted the, "growing trend of Salafi-based radicalization that has permeated some Muslim student associations (MSA's)."
This environment has undoubtedly impacted America's Muslims. According to a Pew Research Poll, roughly one-quarter of young Muslims (ages 18-29) in the United States believe that suicide bombing is justified under certain circumstances.
We as a people are coming to grips with the fact that under the guise of religion many mosques house preachers of mass murder.
There can be no tolerance for such preaching in a civilized society.
There can be no tolerance for such preaching in a society that seeks to protect its freedom of speech.
There can be no tolerance for such preaching in a society that protects its civilians from death threats.
The answer: our government must prosecute, expel, ban, arrest, and jail Islamist leaders who preach that the Koran says Muslims must kill non-Muslims, and who preach that the Koran says that our freedoms must be overthrown, and that Shariah must replace the American Constitution; and our government must do so regardless of whether such preaching is done under cover of freedom of religion.
