New Breed of Islamic Warrior Is Emerging - Immigration as a Weapon!
Wall Street Journal ^ | March 29, 2004 | KEITH JOHNSON and DAVID CRAWFORD

Evidence in the Madrid train bombings points to the participation of a new breed of Islamic holy warrior, unfettered by many of the religious and ideological constraints that defined Islamic terrorism in the past.

These Islamist warriors -- schooled in the North African doctrine known as Takfir wal Hijra and trained by Afghan veterans of al Qaeda -- think, recruit and operate differently from traditional Islamist networks. For Europe, that makes the threat particularly acute. The Takfir movement is strongest in Morocco and Algeria, the primary sources of Muslim immigration to Western Europe. Takfiri theorists openly advocate using immigration as a Trojan horse to expand jihad, or holy war.

Also, with high natality, islamists are preparing to drown out the native population of western countries until they become the majority. Just look what happened in Kosovo. This is the same recipe they are using in a number of other western countries, including US.

Control them... all of them. Make Immigration number one security issues and do not allow any kind of illegal aliens on your soil.

Security start with every one. If you have business and giving job to the illegals to save some money you supporting your own destruction.

This actually has been openly advocated all along ... its in the Koran, fully encouraged as military strategy and encouraged to be used if muslim warrior numbers are too small to take a land by force.

We don't have a huge Muslim immigration to the US - yet. But those that we have seem to have been quite happy to be harboring terrorists among them in their communities.

One thing that is not mentioned is that these North Africans in particular have their sights set on taking over Spain again, and now that they are distributed throughout France and Germany thanks to immigration, these countries are also on their list.

There is considerable fear in Spain that the Socialist government is perceived as soft and that Morocco will make more attempts to take over border regions (those little islands that everybody laughed about) and the Spanish cities of Ceuta and Melilla. Last time, when the Moroccans tried to land on the island, the only country that supported Spain was the US. With the new Socialist government doing its best to alienate the US, this may not happen again.

Also, there are plans for a bridge across the Straits of Gibraltar. As one Spaniard commented, this is one bridge the Muslims won't try to blow up.

Like the service industry didn't prosper before millions of illegal aliens were allowed into this country...ya don't really believe that now do you???
And if you think this country has prospered from the flood of illegal aliens, think again...the cost has been astronomical!

Yep. The Islamists in my neighborhood have at least six kids each. In addition to the Moose-limbs, my nabe also has a growing Mexican population, where cousins, children, parents, etc. crowd out the block on a Sunday afternoon.

Here's a breakdown of the 15 FBI fugitive posters highlighted for March.

http://www.fbi.gov/mostwant/fugitive/fpphome.htm

Americans - 6
Mexican - 5
Puerto Rican - 1
Iraqi - 1
Columbian - 1
Unkown - 1

Of the 15 highlighted for March over half are foreigners.

Isn't it nice that we let the folks just waltz in to commit whatever crimes they'd like?

Yep, up here in NYC, the service labor was performed by blacks from the south and Puerto Ricans from the 1930s-1970s. They were replaced by Dominicans and then Mexican. I understand that down south, much of the service labor used to be performed by blacks, but now the Mexicans and Central Americans have gotten a toehold down there as well.

Al Queda 2.0. Wait until Balkan and Chechnyan terrorists start coming to the US (if they are not already here). Most people tend to see the terrorist archetype as a swawthy dude who seems to have just embarked from a Dhow that sailed from Persia. However blue-eyed blond-haired Jihadis are a reality, and if they dress up in a suit and do not speak it would be virtually impossible to differentiate one from John next door. I am surprised there have not been terror attacks in the US using Jihadis that do not fit the established mold.

Then again the reports of people paying Mexican Coyotes (coyotes are the people who smuggle immigrants from Mehico) 25,000 dollars for a safe trip make one wonder. Why would a mexican pay that much to come here and work for minimum wage? Unless it is someone else.

If i was Queda i would have some Chechnyans in jeans and baseball caps walking around blending in.

However, Western nations rely on cheap labor for many service sector jobs. So what choice is there?

I have a novel idea. Let wages rise if the demand is high. Or citizens can start cutting their own grass, clean their own bathrooms, and start a vegetable in their backyards.

Immigration as a Weapon!

And considering the West's terminal guilt and elevation of mulitculturalism to near-religious status, it's a potent weapon indeed. The Jihadists are taking advantage of our most glaring weakness, and if we don't make fundamental changes to address that weakness we will be destroyed.

I'm surprised the 'more is better' immigration enthusiasts down at the WSJ allowed this article to appear in their paper.

My guess was they'd be singing the praises of unfettered immigration & lower wages right up to the time the Islamacists brought down Wall Street around their ears.

The benefits you describe are normally ssociated with a per capita increase in productivity, but considering the caliber of immigrant coming in these days I would bet per capita productivity in the US is actually shrinking.

One immigration debate is about Islamic migration (EU borders), while the other debate (US borders) is just about cheap goods and trade.

Islamist/Jihadist immigration concerns the U.S., not just the EU.

I would take you up on that bet and win, the service sectos will explode in the US just as soon as the baby-boomer generation replaces "The Greatest Generation" in America's nursing homes.

I'm not sure how this necessarily follows. Are you implying we'll all soon be depending upon low wage, unskilled & uneducated day laborers & gardeners for our SSI payments?

I think you guys follow the Krekar situation.

"Moroccan and European investigators say Abu Musab Zarqawi, a Jordanian, runs a terrorist organization according to Takfir principles. U.S. officials suspect Mr. Zarqawi is behind many of the attacks on coalition troops in Iraq. Spanish investigators are reviewing evidence linking Mr. Zarqawi to the March 11 Madrid bombings; one of Mr. Zougam's contacts in Norway, Mullah Krekar, has worked closely with Mr. Zarqawi, according to Spanish court documents."




Do any of you know of Krekar ties with Zarqawi?

Mullah Krekar previously ran Ansar al-Islam, which provided safe haven for Zarqawi and his minions after they left Baghdad in May 2002. He also may have met Zarqawi during his trip to Afghanistan or during a meeting with al-Qaeda emissaries in the late 1990s back when Abu Zubaydah was the controller for Ansar al-Islam.

I do all that stuff myself. I did hire a local Vietnam vet to remove to huge trees from my yard. He quoted me a favorable price and I allowed him to work the job around his other groundskeeping appointments. I now have 4 cords of wood from the first tree. He's contracted to do the second tree now. He's taking classes on his GI bill benefits and will be taking the 2nd tree down as time permits in his class schedule. The only "rush" on the job is getting the tree down before it starts sucking water and leafing out.

Are you nutz?

How many illegal aliens do you think make SSI payments? Nada


If they did they wouldn't be hired...that defeats the whole purpose of unethical employers who hire illegals and pay them under the table in cash. So they don't have to pay them competitive wages and benefits that citizens would demand!

Here is a little bit of the garden from last year. The bulbs are still coming up this year. Just a few blooms so far. No external gardening assistance is necessary.

So says the immigration enthusiasts - always sounded more to me like a threat than a declaration of inevitability.

Only problem is the 'anglo'(I'm guessing you mean all white people) population in the US isn't contracting. Its only shrinking in relation to the flood from elsewhere. And its not (yet) a fate accompli as you suggest - all we have to do to prevent this is reform our immigration policy.

The way public sentiment is trending these days that may not be such a far fetched possibility.

Americans cannot start cutting their own grass, clean their own bathrooms, and start a vegetable in their backyards because they have grown too lazy.

Not all Americans are lazy. Where I live immigration both legal and illegal has been fairly low until recently and the work has been getting done. No doubt many Americans are lazy but I still believe that if illegals are deported and legal immigration reduced, the country still will survive though it may be tough for a while.

I'm not much into flowers but I have cabbage and broccoli sprouting up right now.

The economic forces that set up and pass legislation in the US want open trade, expanding NAFTA to the soon-to-be finished CAFTA. The final step is a EU model for North and South America, driven by free and border-less trade and (gasp) immigration!

You left out the part about the spiraling standard of living.

Which is what will happen to Americans as the continents become one big undifferntiated economic mass from Hudson Bay to Tierra del Fuego.

Paint me xenophobic - thats not something I want to pass on to my kids.

What it comes down to is that immigrants of today are a net loss when it comes to whether the country benefits from them being here.
