Former terrorists Walid Shoebat, Kamal Saleem and Zak Anani addressed cadets at the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, during their annual political forum. They shared their experiences as terrorists and helped cadets understand the Islamic fundamentalist mind set. During the event a Jordanian college student, identified as Omar Khalifa of Metro International, approached Kamal Saleem and spoke to him in Arabic, "you are an enemy of Islam and you must die." The incident was reported to Military Police, who investigated Khalifa's threat.
"The men receive threats of this nature all of time and we take each one very seriously," said Keith Davies, Executive Director of the Shoebat Foundation. "That is why each of the men live in seclusion."
Numerous media outlets (New York Times, the Associated Press, The Colorado Springs Gazette, the Rocky Mountain News) did not report on the former terrorists' message, but instead focused on the [inaccurate] media statements distributed by CAIR (Council for American Islamic Relations), in an all-out campaign to discredit the speakers credentials and background.
"We have all been told that Islam has been hijacked by extremists, said Walid Shoebat. "Yet CAIR, who professes to be Moderate Muslims are the Three Ex Terrorists biggest critics, and pull out all stops to try and keep out voices from being heard. I beg to ask the question; if CAIR is indeed moderate as they claim, then WHY are they not supporting our campaign against 'extremists? If they are sincerely against the Fundamentalist Muslim agenda why do they appose us?"
According to the Air Force Academy's public affairs office CAIR spokesman, Ibrahim Hooper, contacted them numerous times criticizing the scheduling of the three men, and requesting an opportunity to have a CAIR representative share with cadets information about the Islamic faith. The Academy informed Hooper that the event was not about religion, but about terrorism, and he denied CAIR's request.
Each of the men can document their stories and identities. Shoebat has spoken at more than 50 events, including many prestigious organizations and venues. He has also addressed audiences at numerous government agencies, who always scrutinize his credentials and background, and they have cleared him each and every time. He has spoken at the National Constitution Center, Columbia, Stanford and Harvard universities, the Department of Homeland Security, and the FBI Academy, to name only a few. The advisory board of the Walid Shoebat Foundation is comprised of Generals and other senior officers from the U.S. Military. ...
Walid Shoebat is the author of two best selling books Why I Left Jihad and Why We Want to Kill You More info can be found at: www.shoebat.com and www.3xterrorists.com .

Ahhhh...the religion of peace. Isn’t that nice.
We need to apply the Theodoric of York cure to Islam. What they need is a good bloodletting....
CAIR is a Trojan Horse for islam and should be expelled from the USA. Their goal - professed publicly - is for islam to one day rule over America. There can be no coexistence between America and islamic jihadis.
What is a Former Terrorist?
Oh someone who changes their mind, and shares Intel.
So now they are the guest speakers in a open forum
I guess the time, they are a changing.
“What they (islam) need is a good bloodletting...”
Exactly. It worked for the Nazis, the Japanese, why not the muslims? We KNOW they will NEVER take out their own trash.
Is Omar out of here? Or going to sensitivity training.
He's not.
During the event a Jordanian college student, identified as Omar Khalifa of Metro International, approached Kamal Saleem and spoke to him in Arabic, "you are an enemy of Islam and you must die."
Apparently, he's one of 18 foreign students who attended the conference on Media International's dime.

From the release: "METRO INTERNATIONAL creates global citizens and inspires a peaceful world through one-of-a-kind programs in classrooms and communities. Metro International brings Americans and students from around the world face-to-face to share their lives and perspectives in life changing ways. Through Metro International programs, Americans and international students learn from one another and together they become active citizens in a global society."
Appears brother Omar shared some rather instructive face-to-face life perspectives with the Academy. Thank you, Metro International for the excellent work you do screening your client students.
Walid Shoebat was supposed to blow up Israeli children. He saw them and couldn’t do it. Instead he detonated his bomb without harming anyone. Later he converted to Christianity.
Just another day in the Wonderful World of Islam.
I read from another source that the Musnut was from another college - Metropolitan State perhaps (no insult to Met State intended if I’m incorrect). The Academy is a great institution, but has recently been infected by the bacteria of liberalism (yes it exists there...usually in the pablum academic departments, such as Political “Science,” etc). Those with long memories will recall that a fighter pilot, who had received a master’s degree compliments of Uncle Sam, and who was teaching in the Political “Science” dept. (I believe) decided that he was a conscientious objector following an assignment to Viet Nam. So goes those of weak or no mind. And, thanks to our dhimmicrats, they’re lurking in the military. They’ve also had a wife of a Mexican officer do a hit and run - killing a general’s wife. Wanna guess what happens?
Islam is a religion of peace and I’ll kill you if you don’t agree. Works for me.
What the hell is this joker doing in our military school?
Correction, he’s from Metro International - one can only guess the depth of lack of intellectualism that exists at that institution. By the way, each year the Academy hosts a national assembly at which the USAFA students get a much, much broader spectrum of political ideas than do those at Harvard, Yale, or Columbia. Students from other schools are invited, and many of them stay with the cadets. I’ll criticize the Academy, but it’s light years ahead of our Ivy League schools....believe me.
Nothing said about that by me, sure glad He found Our Lord in time. Paul Also was a murder till God Blew him off his Horse, and got his full attention.
My point is, if you know the Military, they usually have former terror insiders speak at close door meetings for special ops, or special teams.
This was a more open forum, I find it a bit unusual.
So the people some of them may have compromised in their bad boy days or someone who might have lost family members would be pre-screened, harder to do in open forums, meaning where the press has access.
Just a thought?
Those who hate and despise Western culture should not be allowed to live in the West. CAIR and all its fellow travelers should be made to return to their ancestral Islamic hell holes and stay there.
See #17.
Don’t worry, be happy! John McCain and Ted Kennedy has our back covered I am sure.
Jesus has a plan for our new arrivals (Saracens) in the USA.
San Francisco has a target rich environment for all radical fanatics of all faiths. Sometimes you can see the need for drastic reform even if you are not a zealot.
Have Faith in our Lord Christ
The Academy should tell them to go pound sand. Was the German-American Bund invited to speak at West Point during WW II? Didn't think so but it would be the same thing.
Former terrorists Walid Shoebat, and Zak Anani addressed cadets at the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, during their annual political forum. They shared their experiences as terrorists and helped cadets understand the Islamic fundamentalist mind set.
"During the event a Jordanian college student, identified as Omar Khalifa of Metro International, approached [former (sic) terrorist] Kamal Saleem and spoke to him in Arabic, 'you are an enemy of Islam and you must die.' "
So...some terrorists were lecturing our Air Force Cadets on on why terrorists are just so unhappy, and ANOTHER guy, a Muslim apparently angry at the TERRORISTS, says he really ought to die, which is the same as saying "I GOT THE ROPE, YOU FIND THE TREE".
Admittedly, the article seems to have been written in a purposefully confusing way, to make Khalifa (unfortunate name, which happens to mean "to succeed") out to be the Islamist and the damned terrorists out to be the moderates.
Huh? Have you seen the picture of the bunny with a pancake on its head? Because dude, I have no clue what your link is about...
Germans and German-Americans who renounced Nazism almost certainly were.
Well he certainly made our point....Islam is hell.
Dude, the guys speaking at the event are not terrorists. They are all converts to Christianity, and very pro-Israel and pro-American. They are educating people about what they used to do. I know Shoebat has his own pro-Israel foundation and has appeared in many documentaries critical of Islam.
And any one who does not vote to keep out hitlery or "O" is voting for the takeover.
Huma, hitched at the hip with hitlery for years, would be in the WH again - this time with total access to American security and all else. She is Islamic, born and raised Islamic, raised in Saudi Arabia - better read up on this Mata Hari
Here's just one link:
http://lukeford.net/blog/?p=1037

and "O" - born and raised in Islamic households, formative years in Islamic schools - even when enrolled in Catholic school, registered as Muslim, attended Muslim daily prayers. (Now professes to have become a Christian - (lying is permissible in order to carry out jihard - is this why he isn't under threat of death for apostacy? ... but instead, revered by Muslims?)

Letting either RAt into the WH is helping to roll in the Trojan Horse -
Swallow your indignation at not getting the candidate you wanted and vote against the REAL enemies of our country , of our world.
The media is hand in glove with these enemies. We are the only ones that can protect our country, our freedom.
It's up to us.
Are we adult enough to recognize the greater enemy in our midst?
That's an intelligent post.
Not
Bring it on Omar, I'm one too. Your deity is a moon god made out of stone, your prophet was a drunken child-molester and your religion is the best choice for anyone too stupid for scientology.
Bring it on, Omar, but I shoot back.
Well I know it is a bit over your head so I’ll just consider the source.
Amazing, isn't it - a small meteorite!
"The God's must be Crazy"
Amazing...
laughable also
I know that branch water in Maine makes you giddy.
Whalid Shoebat IS an ex PLO terrorist who renounced terrorism, converted to Christianity and has published and lectured in the West warning of the threat of radical Islam and and its front groups including CAIR. He has put himself in extreme jeopardy and has been the subject of many threats and actual plots on his life.
Khalifa's threat against Whalid was for daring to make a stand against the Jihadist. It also revealed Khalifa to be another soldier of Jihad by other means welcomed to our country by American academia and the U.S. State Department.

Links to Khalifa's "Metro International":
They can’t help it. They are taught hate and violence from the time they are born.
This should warm the hearts of DhimmiRats everywhere, to see the that the adherents of the religion of pieces are merely trying to just get along with folks in the world.
This clash of civilizations has been ongoing for over 1400 years, and will be over when either civilization or the Islamofascists have won, not until.
Contrary to the Obamaniacs, there is no negotiating with Islam. Their playbook, the quran, is explicit. There are only three ways to deal with the infidel, the kafir...Convert them, Enslave them, or Kill them. I don’t like those choices. I choose freedom.
Lock and Load.
To Omar the jihadi wannabe:
“The bullets in my rifle are dipped in pig grease”
(easy with the M-1 Garand bloc clip: eight rounds coated with a single dip.)
btt
Well,...perhaps #42 would help.

Metro Students participate in conference on terrorism with US Air Force Academy!
Good one...
In fact, I like it so much I hope you don’t mind if I use it in my tag...
The Khalifa Institute calls for a world-wide jihad and outlines their plan to bring the global society under the domination of Islam.
It was in the Sudan, 1883, where the second coming- the Mahdi conquered. His men killed General Gordon at Khartoum. He died of typhoid seven months later. His successor was the Khalifa. He held a brutal rule and had slavery for the poor black Sudanese, this for 13 years. The British waiting and planned the reconquest of the Sudan. A brave man nonetheless. He stood off the well prepared force of Sir Herbert Kitchener.
Ah, for a Kitchener today!. The Khalifa waited on his blanket with his rifle and the British killed him.
Remember the name Omar Khalifa. Could he not be deported? If not charged. Serious threats are against any law- that I know of.
The student is in this country as a participant of the Fulbright Scholar program ....his ASS*** should be immediately sent back to his country of origin...and the Fulbright Scholar program sponsers in the State Department should be advised to immediately introduce tighter screening for participants to be invited to this country.....
But he was allowed into this country under some program...and he should be send back to Jordan....they would know how to deal with him...
I am deeply honored ;-)
