Indonesian Cleric Calls On Muslims To Kill U.S. Diplomats In Revenge For Mohammed Film…

Via Global Post:
One of Indonesia’s most notorious hardline Muslim clerics has issued a jailhouse proclamation to his faithful: feel free to mimic the coordinated attacks on America’s Libyan embassy in Indonesia.
There is still speculation as to whether those attacks, which killed U.S. envoy J. Christopher Stevens, were provoked by the poorly made, anti-Islam “Innocence of Muslims” video posted on YouTube.
But Abu Bakar Bashir, a cheerleader for violent jihad still in prison for organizing the 2002 bombings in Bali, is clear in stating that the film must be answered with violent reprisals.
In an interview with Indonesian outlet “Voice of al-Islam,” according to a translation by the Jakarta Globe, Bashir said that “what happened in Libya can be imitated … If it is defaming God and the Prophet [Muhammad], the punishment should be death. [There are] no other considerations.
This is, to my knowledge, the most extreme call to violence to come from any Southeast Asian Muslim leader. But there is good news: Indonesian security forces have already cracked down on Bashir’s followers with a vengeance and scattered them into fragmented groups. They are probably incapable of mounting such an attack at the time being.

Thanks one-percenters, now it’s back to around the clock class warfare.
Via Washington Times:
After enduring a little ribbing on “Late Show With David Letterman” in New York on Tuesday, President Obama collected $4 million at a fundraiser hosted by Jay-Z and Beyoncé at their lounge bar, Manhattan’s 40/40 Club.
About 100 donors who paid $40,000 each to attend the event sat on sofas in a large, glass room, according to the pool report.
Jay-Z and Beyoncé gave only brief remarks, letting Mr. Obama bask in limelight.

Every “cleric” who calls for the killing of an American citizen should be targeted for death by American forces. They are supposed to be our national defense, and these radicals have shown they will kill us if they can. This is war and these guys are the enemy.

Now that is a reasoned, unemotional, highly nuanced, and fully considered response.
The Noble Islamic Gentleman, as ever given exceptional respect, have just been elevated to new heights in the international dialogue and discourse between learned men.
It is only right, meet and proper that we should immediately comply with the wishes expressed. US diplomats should stand before their embassies, chests bared and hands raised in supplication, awaiting the mercy that only the truly dedicated Islamic scholars may dispense.
And I have oceanfront lots available in Arizona. If that is not sufficiently exotic, I may be able to get a line on similar properties in Afghanistan.

Dear Abu Bakar Bashir, jihad cheerleader,
I hear you're block boss is now selling your 'affections' for 4 rolled cigarettes (or 1 genuine US cig). We're also informed you can 'baaa' like a real sheep once you get going.

The mob violence against us is being fomented by the mosques. We should take it a little more seriously.
Like, calling for the death of Americans should have prompt and definitive consequences.

This is an act of war against the United States and every fatwa issued by Muslim clergy is an act of war whether it is directed against a member of the United States government or any citizen. The civilized world should have put a fatwa on the first Muslim cleric who put a fatwa on Salmon Rushdie over twenty years ago. These savages have gotten away with murder (literally) for decades. The pieces of filth need to know that they too are mortals. The need to know what it is like to live in fear for their lives and then you will see that they will back down.

Eventually we will have to have the balls to just snuff these guys like the Israelis did in uglier days. It will eventually come to that I think.
