Stay focused on the problem. Don't be diverted.

Taquiya Master Ahamd clearly didn't read Resolution 441. He simply does what Muslims do: change the subject to a discussion of non-Muslims. Had he read 441 he would have noted the citation of UN Security Council 687 (1991) which makes voluminous demands of Saddam regarding his WMD's (I suppose the Security Council was lying also, Mr. Ahamd?).

Therein is the basis for UN authorization of the invasion: Saddam never fulfilled the terms of those demands and therefore a ceasefire never came to pass. And, of course, in typical feckless UN fashion, the Security Council never demanded that the Coalition refrain from bringing Saddam down, even though it was clearly on the horizon.

Feckless, appeasing people and organizations like the UN only "take a stand" after the fact -- after they "test the wind."

So, Mr. Ahamd, basically, the war never ended. And note that 687 (which you probably won't read) talks endlessly about Iraq's...WMD's! Only fools and enemies of the truth would believe that Saddam destroyed his chemical and biological weapons out of the goodness of his heart or to please the West. This is what President Clinton said on July 22, 2003 (CNN): "People can quarrel with whether we should have more troops in Afghanistan or internationalize Iraq or whatever, but it is incontestable that on the day I left office, there were unaccounted for stocks of biological and chemical weapons."

Hillary Clinton said, on October 10, 2002: "In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including Al Qaeda members."

Dr. Hans Blix, Chief UN Weapons Inspector, addressing the UN Security Council: "The nerve agent VX is one of the most toxic ever developed. 13,000 chemical bombs were dropped by the Iraqi Air Force between 1983 and 1988, while Iraq has declared that 19,500 bombs were consumed during this period. Thus, there is a discrepancy of 6,500 bombs. The amount of chemical agent in these bombs would be in the order of about 1,000 tonnes."

Blix also said, on June 6, 2003 (BBC): "Saddam Hussein's regime might have hidden weapons, or it might have destroyed them."

Mr. Ahamd, if you told me, face-to-face, that you "might have hidden" a bomb under your gown you'd have about two seconds to prove otherwise before I "dealt" with you. But then, I'm not a feckless, dithering appeaser before a relentlessly aggressive Islamic movement. And that's why people like me irritate you so much, Mr. Ahamd: We aren't going to wait for your religion to overwhelm us as it is doing in Thailand, the Philippines, Bosnia and Kosovo and a dozen other places in the world. But now that you've successfully diverted the discussion to the faults of non-Muslims, (Good job! Your taquiya worked!) it's your turn to explain what's wrong with Islam. [Notice to non-Muslims: watch how equivocating and illusive Mr. Ahamd's, or any responding Muslim's responses, will be.

Always keep this in mind when a Muslim speaks: They will never, ever condemn their fellow Muslims, no matter what crimes they commit; Muslims will always frame their responses within the context that "these are not real Muslims," or "Islam forbids such actions"]

Now for the questions, Mr. Ahamd: Why are Muslims taking other people's land, as in the following? 12-20-07 AP: Thailand (90% Buddhist): "The village Buddhist chief's severed head was found near the other bodies." Muslims killed 2,600 natives since 2004 when they began demanding their own muslim nation in the majority-muslim southwest provinces. 12/07: The Dayton Accords ended the conflict in Bosnia by enshrining fractured politics in a state dominated by Muslims, and where today, consequently, "hundreds of mujahadeen fighters are successfully spreading their fundamentalist Islamist views" at the expense of Bosnian Christians, according to Der Spiegel.

In fact, tensions will rise this weekend, as the Islamic presidency seeks to impose reforms that will eliminate the semi-autonomy of non-muslims." 11-16-07 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia: "The Philippines government and separatist rebels have struck a deal on creating a Muslim homeland in the country's south, which is expected to lead to a peace accord next year, officials said yesterday." 9/24/07 Time: "Albanian failure to provide a safe haven for Kosovo's Serbian [Christian] minority…

They say that the only solution is to create an independent muslim Kosovo." Last question: Name one Christian entity which is taking other nations' land and making it a "separate Christian homeland." The truth will be your undoing, Mr. Ahamd...and the salvation of Western Culture. And may God curse Islamist's aggression.
