Guantanamo, The Joy of Cooking, and Islam

B. Hussein Obama has repeatedly indicated that he plans to close the United States base in Guantanamo bay, Cuba. The shut-down will not, however, be because of a lack of inefficiency. President elect Obama and several other liberals suffering from Obsessive Compulsive Compassion Disorder feel that the United States is just a smidge too mean to these guys. The feel that inmates are being bullied at this facility.

Here is a list of some of the bullying tactics:
- Taxpayer support for prosthetic limbs. The injuries incurred by these little darlings were the result of the very explosion they tried to kill civilians with. (See Abdullah Massoud's procedure in 2001 which cost the U.S. Taxpayer between ($50,000-75,000)

- Menu items such as: Glazed orange chicken, fresh fruit, and rice pilaf

- It is one of the only detention facilities in the world where prisoners are leaving with weight GAIN.

- Upon leaving, each inmate is provided with a new copy of the Koran and a fresh pair of jeans





Wait... they are given a copy the KORAN? I like how Ann Coulter equated this provision with "giving Jeffrey Dahmer 'The Joy of Cooking.'"

Here are a few loving quotes from the Koran:

• "If you should die or be slain in the cause of God, His forgiveness and His mercy would surely be better than all the riches..." (Surah 3:156-)

• "Seek out your enemies relentlessly." (Surah 4:103-)

• "The Jews and Christians say: 'We are the children of God and His loved ones.' Say: 'Why then does He punish you for your sins?" (Surah 5:18)

• 
  "Believers, take neither Jews nor Christians for your friends." (Surah 5:51)

• 
  "The God will say: 'Jesus, son of Mary, did you ever say to mankind 'Worship me and my mother as gods besides God?' 'Glory to You, 'he will answer, 'how could I ever say that to which I have no right?" (Surah 5:114-)

• 
  "Believers, when you encounter the infidels on the march, do not turn your backs to them in flight. If anyone on that day turns his back to them, except it be for tactical reasons...he shall incur the wrath of God and Hell shall be his home..." (Surah 8:12-)

• 
  "Make war on them until idolatry shall cease and God's religion shall reign supreme." (Surah 8:36-)

• 
  "If you fear treachery from any of your allies, you may fairly retaliate by breaking off your treaty with them." (Surah 8:51-)

• 
  "...make war on the leaders of unbelief...Make war on them: God will chastise them at your hands and humble them. He will grant you victory over them..." (Surah 9:12-)

• "If you do not fight, He will punish you sternly, and replace you by other men." (Surah 9:37-)

• "Believers, make war on the infidels who dwell around you. Deal firmly with them." (Surah 9:121-)

• "Fight for the cause of God with the devotion due to Him...He has given you the name of Muslims..." (Surah 22:78-)

• "Blessed are the believers...who restrain their carnal desires (except with their wives and slave-girls, for these are lawful to them)...These are the heirs of Paradise..." (Surah 23:1-5-)

• "Muhammad is God's apostle. Those who follow him are ruthless to the unbelievers but merciful to one another." (Surah 48:29)

And don't give me any of this crap about Judeo-Christian teachings being chalked full of violence. 2 things:

a) it was God doing the violence in the Old Testament, not His believers. In the Koran, God needs impressionable idiots to do it for him.

b) forgiveness is the cornerstone of the New Testament. Forgiveness, in Islamic texts, is considered weak. Oh wait! There is a stipulation...if they convert to Islam THEN you can forgive them. Until then, they are on us non-Muslims like a rabbit on a cheetah.

Christian text says "Love your enemies." Islamic text tells you to kill them (but ONLY after given an opportunity to convert to Islam...at knife-point, obviously). Don't get me wrong...there are plenty of wonderful people who call themselves Muslims. They just choose to ignore certain tidbits from the Koran.

So here is the painful truth...the teachings of the Koran and the expansion of Islam are perhaps the most dangerous threats our society faces today.

Let's call this war what it is. War on Terror? No. That's like saying War on Meanness. This is a War on Islamic Fascism.
