AMSTERDAM (AP) — The Dutch public prosecutor says 12 Somalis have been detained in the port city of Rotterdam on suspicion of terrorist-related activities.
The men were seized Friday on a tip from the intelligence services that they were planning a terrorist attack shortly in the Netherlands. There was no immediate information on the intended target.
Police searched a call center, four houses and two motel rooms in the Rotterdam area, prosecutors said in a statement Saturday. No weapons or explosives were found.
The prosecutors said the suspects are aged 19 to 48. Six live in Rotterdam, five have no permanent residence and one man comes from Denmark.

Posted on December 25, 2010 at 6:26pmAnother Cheap Shot Deceptive Tactic used by those who want to undermine our values, is they bring up some harsh penalty for a minor infraction from the Old Testament (The punishment for homosexuality is death), so as to say;“ See Christianity is as bad as Islam”. Obama himself has done this. This is another argument of lies. The Old Testament is the “Jewish Bible”. The New Testament is the Christian Bible. In the Old Testament, the punishment for adultery was death by stoning. In the new Testament, Jesus came across a mob that was going to stone a woman to death for adultery, and he talked the mob into letting her go. Confused, the disciples asked Jesus;”Teacher, which of the old laws (Meaning The Old Testament laws), should we obey?“ and Jesus answered ”You know the ones, above all love God with all your heart and love your neighbor as you love yourself”. So, Christians are not bound by all the wacky laws in the Old Testament. So don’t let the sleazeballs get away with saying or implying otherwise.They’ve gotten away with it for too long already.

Posted on December 25, 2010 at 5:55pmOn Tommothy McVey and all of that nonsense. Useful and WILLING IDIOTS will often say something like “some pretty awful things have been done in the name of Christianity too”. I’m going to debunk that idiocy once and forever.Please repeat this all over the web; Christians follow the teachings and examples of Jesus. Jesus said “Above all, love God with all of your heart and LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOU LOVE YOURSELF”. so, anyone who is murdering, oppressing or enslaving anyone isn’t following the teachings or examples of Jesus, SO THEY ARE NOT CHRISTIANS,period. Just because someone does something “In the name of Christianity” means nothing. People have been killed “In the name of Love”, does that mean Love is bad or evil? Of course not. People who do evil in “the name of Love” are not Lovers, they’re just evil liars. So remember, everyone, if they say they are Christians and they are doing good, they probably are Christians. If they say they are Christians, and they’re doing evil, they absolutely are not Christians. You know this, I know this, but the sleazeballs keep muddying the Christianity/Islam debate with this cheap shot tactic. Don’t let them get away it! PS I’m an agnostic who realizes that the only difference between our Western Civilization and the rest of the barbaric world, is Christianity,whether the atheists or gays want to admit or not.

Posted on December 25, 2010 at 4:38pmIslam is a totalitarian socio-political system that has intended to destroy everything that is not Islam for 1388 years.
Read the very bad literature called the Quran and at least the relevant parts of the Sunna and you should be able to deduce that Allah is space debris and Muhammad was (or at least became) a murderously insane rapist whose crimes were covered by ‘revelations’ whether real or imagined. Islam has caused more human suffering than Marxism; and that is an impressive accomplishment of evil.
I suppose many will now invoke Timothy McVey, who never mentioned any religiosity, or violence in the Bible which is irrelevent to the historical mayhem of Islam and does not contain a standing order to commit rape, torture, enslavement and every imaginable sort of violence against the rest of the world.
It is the most noble part of man that desires freedom of conscience and rebels against compulsion of belief. Whatever convinces any man that he has the authority to force ideas, even good ones, on another can only be from an evil source.

Posted on December 28, 2010 at 9:27pmOBAMA FULFILLING THE BIBLE
Pres. Lincoln stated: “I believe the Bible is the best gift God has ever given to man.” But several Bible verses are embarrassing to Pres. Obama:
Report Post »Proverbs 19:10 (NIV): “It is not fitting for a fool to live in luxury – how much worse for a slave to rule over princes!”
Also Proverbs 30:22 (NIV) which says that the earth cannot bear up under “a servant who becomes king.”
And Ecclesiastes 5:2-3 (KJV) advises: “let thy words be few…a fool’s voice is known by multitude of words.”
Although Obama is not descended from slaves, he may feel that he’s destined to become a black-slavery avenger.
Or maybe an enslaver of all free citizens!
For some stunning info on Pres. Obama and his fellow subversives, Google “Michelle Obama’s Allah-day,“ ”Obama Supports Public Depravity,“ ”David Letterman’s Hate Etc.,“ ”Un-Americans Fight Franklin Graham“ and also ”Sandra Bernhard, Larry David, Kathy Griffin, Bill Maher, Sarah Silverman.”
PS – Since Christians are commanded to ask God to send severe judgment on persons who commit and support the worst forms of evil (see I Cor. 5 and note “taken away”), Christians everywhere should constantly pray that the Lord will soon “take away” or at least overthrow all US leaders, including Obama, who continue to sear their conscience and arrogantly trample the God-given rights of the majority including the rights of the unborn. Do we need a second American Revolution?

Posted on December 25, 2010 at 2:23pm@American soldier – I’m not sure Christians hate athiests. I believe what they hate is the athiests’ enforcing on the rest of us their anti-Christian agenda. For example, why should they care if a cross sits atop a hill to commemorate soldiers who died in wars? Why does it offend them so much that they would expend their valuable and I might add, limited time on Earth to file lawsuits and keep them in the courts for years? Do you think that on their deathbeds they are are going to say, “I’m glad I spent my days fighting to keep crosses out of public places.” I think not. Which brings me to something C.S. Lewis said, “Christianity, if false, is of no importance, and if true, of infinite importance. The only thing it cannot be is moderately important.”

We really don’t need anyone else for that matter until we get this country back from the commies. I mean Obama and his comrades.Then ,when you can prove that you have something to offer and can speak English, maybe we’ll let you get in line. Letting any one in that wants to come is part of our problem. Come to the USA,get on the government dole. It’s sucking the life out of this country. Unless we face this reality,don’t expect things to change . Don’t give me this melting pot and diversity crap,that went out the window a long time ago.

Posted on December 25, 2010 at 5:26pmSo what, I am Anti Muslim and proud of it! Sorry, but I stand up against evil, that’s just the way I was raised. You may say that it is only a few out of the bunch that are terrorist but the way I see it is every time an attack takes place or some sort of threat or intimidation for any reason takes place by Muslims you don’t hear not one word of condemnation from the Muslim community, not one word of outrage, not one word period. So the way I see it is if don’t condemn something that represents you then that is the same thing as supporting it.

Posted on December 26, 2010 at 2:43amREALLY???
To those who personally attacked me or what you believed to be my stance on Islamic issues…you are all unfounded in your statements, and make yourselves to look like fools.
We know that MANY Muslims are out to kill us, or support those that are. You do not need to lower our standards and make statements to attack any Muslim, or draw to a conclusion that they would be involved in one act or another. The Muslims who are not for peace always out themselves in what they say.
If you want to attack the Imam from the GZ Mosque plan, attack him and the project on the facts, because there are plenty of reasons to stop that Mosque from being built. For Example: Muslims look at building Mosques at sites of great victories, and we should not as a country allow any evil power to think they have a victory over the United States. (On evil power…I’m not saying that Islam is evil, but many of the leaders within the religion are taking it in that direction, and some of them actually are.)
If you want to attack Muslims in general for their actions, do it with the facts. There are countless examples that support arguments. When was the last time people went around the world killing in Christ’s name to the magnitude that Muslims are currently? It has been a few hundred years, and most if not all TRUE Christians denounce those acts as wrong.

BIAS – a particular tendency or inclination, esp. one that prevents unprejudiced consideration of a question; prejudice.
PREJUDICE – an unfavorable opinion or feeling formed beforehand or without knowledge, thought, or reason.
I make a comment about someone connecting two things that have no relation to one another, other than the fact that the individuals are Muslim, and you all attack me. I happen to take reason and logic into my thought process, something I did not see anyone here do.
This is what happens with Racism. One man of a race does one thing, and another man of the same race does another, then someone connects the two WITHOUT MERIT. Then they develop a mindset around that, if they didn’t already have it. This is what the original reply to this article did and I attacked it, as would I attack anything that stands WITHOUT MERIT that I come across.
You want to do this right? Question Islam Leaders and all Muslims and demand to know why they stand with Terrorists. If someone agrees with what a terrorist is doing, they themselves are a terrorist, and treat them as such. At this time, if you aren’t openly denouncing and preaching against terrorism, in your silence you are in a way advocating it to these terrorists.
TERRORIST – a person, usually a member of a group, who uses or ADVOCATES terrorism.
TERRORISM – (LEGAL DICTIONARY)
1 : the unlawful use or threat of violence esp. against the state or the public as a politically motivated means of attack or coercion
2 : violent and intimidating gang activity
So, for you idiots…
IDIOT – an utterly foolish or senseless person.
SENSELESS – lacking mental perception, appreciation, or comprehension.
…your attacks are unfounded, and you are not much better in your thinking than the unintelligent terrorists who follow the misguided teachings of their leaders.
If you took the time to read all of my posts, I think you‘d find something that you don’t find common on the left or the right, that being the ability to approach almost everything with logic and reason, and also the occasional comedic response to lighten the issue when it gets too serious. Add all that on to the fact that I am conservative, and you have your hands full should you really want to attack or insult me.
