    So “hard-line sharia” he’s not so into (I guess stringing up teh gheys crosses a line for him) but “soft sharia” would be ok?

    Fuck you Chuck.

      Worse than that, “soft sharia” is ok, but perish the thought of anything Christian (or Jewish) having anything to do with government.

    The War is Over; The Jihad Isn’t

    Robert Spencer has a disturbing and revealing piece at FrontPage on the ultimate goal of the Islamic jihad: the reestablishment of the caliphate, and the dominance of Islam over the entire world. As Spencer points out, this is not just the dream of a few radicals relegated to the fringe of Islam; this is an essential goal at the very center of Sunni Islam, supported, advocated, and given doctrinal legitimacy by the highest Muslim authorities in the world.

      Yea that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

      There are too many posts to count with CJ hyperventilating over creeping sharia. Pennsylvainia Shari’a Watch, Minnesota Shari’a Watch, Vancouver Shari’a Watch, Fox TV Shari’a Watch, US Shari’a Watch, British Shari’a Watch, Belgian Shari’a Watch, German Shari’a Watch….and these “watch” threads alone go on and on. For him to post up this whitewash of his past with this lame qualifier that he never called for legislation against it must have involved all the bleach at the local warmart.

    It’s also news to me that the “Christian right” has been trying to institute sharia in the US for decades. I don’t think Christians have sharia, Chuck.

    The Muslim Brotherhood, by their own words, seek to destroy western civilization from within by using their front groups (such as CAIR and MSA). Johnson refuses to call the MB a radical group. He thinks they’re all OK.

    Johnson is an enabler Islamic supremacists and thus he is a traitor and an enemy of freedom. But I guess we all knew that already.

    There’s no such thing as a “strain of Islamic extremism”. Islam is Islam. It is what is is. You either follow the teachings of the Koran, which preach Jihad, supremacism and Sharia or you’re not a real Muslim. This is why all Islamic groups, including the GZ mosque developers (who Johnson believes are “moderates”) need to be aggressively confronted. Johnson is fucking idiot.

    So Vlaams Belang, EDL, Christine O’Donnell, Sarah Palin are all bad. But for the Muslim Brotherhood, we just need to be informed about them. Otherwise, they’re OK.

    Al-chuki’s comments are typical of his current turnspeak.

    He claims that he never SPECIFICALLY advocated outlawing Sharia or the muslim brotherhood.

    That may be true, but what he did for seven years is post hundreds of articles along with his comments on why such actions would be justified.

    And therein lies your hypocrisy, al-chuki.

    You’re either too dim to understand that, or you’re just a lying hypocrite.
    Your pick ( since we all know you are reading this).

    Chuckles must have missed this, from ‘CAIR’ (ok, it’s not the Muzzie Brotherhood, but I’d bet CAIR presents itself as more ‘mainstream’ than the M.B. does).

    “Those who stay in America should be open to society without melting, keeping Mosques open so anyone can come and learn about Islam. If you choose to live here, you have a responsibility to deliver the message of Islam … Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any other faiths, but to become dominant. The Koran, the Muslim book of scripture, should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth.” (Omar Ahmad- Co-Founder of the Council on American-Islamic Relations)

    Just a minor picky point, but “hysterical” is a word with misogynistic overtones. Perfect for Chunk.

      Hadn’t thought of it, but you’re right.

    I had Charles Johnson scoped out as a traitor back in 2007. It’s on my blog:

    Attacking Genuine Evil in the Blogosphere

    I had already been banned from LGF, but this was before most other people had begun to catch on to what he was all about. I took a lot of flak from a lot of people for pointing that out.

    Next thread, LewDwig is all worked up about rewriting truth, rewriting history, thought police, and pettiness:

    4- LudwigVanQuixote +8 [Fri, Sep 24, 2010 3:34:49pm ]
    In fact, let me say this. The Texas BOE has the very real plan of rewriting truth.
    [...]
    They will re-write history to do so and they will not let any fact that contradicts their dogma stand in the record. These are the thought police and what petty unthinking creatures they are.

    Gee who does all that remind me of … ?

    Interesting stuff, that I hadn’t seen before. Thanks for the link!

    Also led me to this fine retrospective on the man, the myth, the a-hole we know as Chunky The Wonder Flit. http://www.jihadwatch.org/2010/01/the-way-he-went-after-people-was-like-a-mental-illness.html

    Some great quotes in there from Pam and Robert, such as this one:

    The irrational hatred and determination to destroy others no matter what lies need to be told to do it, the paranoia, the roaring-mouse totalitarianism and cultishness, the self-obsession and self-righteous preening, the howlingly superficial thought processes — in short, every tendency we have come to know and love in Charles Johnson over the last two years is on display in this piece, “Right-Wing Flame War!,” by Jonathan Dee, January 21

    Geez, Charles is so … dumb. Hey SeafoodGumbo, where’s the post where Charles called for all Muslim women to be sterilized? Oh that’s right, he never wrote one! He just totally contradicted himself about whether or not the Muslim Bros. are dangerous or not in 2008 and now, and then again at the beginning and end of this thread. But lets don’t talk about that, lets talk about outrageous things Charles never said and then whip out a “QED!1!”. Loozards, your master is intellectually naked…

    That’s all you could dig up? Where’s the post where I called for the Muslim Brotherhood to be banned, or for sharia law to be banned?
    Oh, that’s right, it doesn’t exist.
    But if you really prefer to be afraid of things that don’t exist, it’s your choice.
    Meanwhile, the Muslim Brotherhood and other extremist groups are getting the message, occasionally via Predator drone, that Barack Obama is not really their friend.

    Personally, I loved the way Charles always took the high road and never tried to fuel craziness or employ demagoguery or foster bigotry. That was always obvious from the slang he helped invent and promoted, his “dogs playing poker” and Elvis photoshopping, and especially his daily referrals to Islam as the “Religion of Peace”, or more succinctly, “RoP”, in the context of terrorist acts, Palestinian Child Abuse (which I guess no longer occurs), etc. I just wonder if he’s still “A Righteous Gentile”.

    muslim dominionism…ok!

    christian dominionism….very evil!

    Yeah, no double standard here.

    What am I talking about? Look up the references to “c street house” “the fellowship” aka “the family”.”Jeff Sharlet”; any of these. and lgf.

    Let’s say Chuckie yodeled the Shahada… However, because he has the appearance strikingly reminiscent of a hog, his new overlords will still consider him unclean and chop off his head. Not that chopping off his head will make much difference. Some say it may actually increase his IQ.
