CHAIRMAN OF THE US JOINT CHIEFS OF STAFF URGES MORE SHARIA IN THE US CALLS QUR'AN-BURNING PASTOR, ASKS HIM TO COMPLY WITH iSLAMIC BLASPHEMY LAWS

  More sharia compliance from top US military brass. Mind you, this is the same General Dempsey whose aircraft was rocket attacked at Bagram Airbase in Afghanistan not a month ago by these same jihadists who adhere to the same Islamic doctrine .
  General Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the U.S. military's Joint Chiefs of Staff, called Pastor Terry Jones by phone on Wednesday and "asked him to withdraw his support for a film whose portrayal of the Prophet Mohammad has sparked violent protests."
  This won't work. It weakens us. Didn't the the chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff get the memo that it is his job to defend the Constitution and our basic freedoms, not to curtail them? If these folks wish to restrict free speech, they should move. There are hundreds of countries that restrict speech. Go there. Don't force us to sacrifice our freedoms because you are afraid of offending savages.
  Chairman of Joint Chiefs of Staff calls Qur'an-burning pastor, asks him to practice Sharia-compliant self-censorship Jihad Watch
  It's come to this. Even the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff thinks that it if Muslims respond to something with murderous violence, it is up to the non-Muslims to change the way they behave so as to accommodate them. And so eleven years after 9/11, terrorism well and truly won: now if any group wants anything, they know that all they have to do in order to get it is rampage and riot and kill.
  Also, this film didn't "spark violent protests." The film has been on YouTube since 2011. Someone found the film and thought it would serve as a pretext for attacks on Americans on September 11.
  And in response, General Dempsey calls those who are supposedly responsible for the film and asks them to submit voluntarily to Sharia restrictions on the freedom of speech regarding Islam.
  Turn out the lights. It's all over.
  "Top U.S. military officer calls pastor over film," Reuters, September 12 (thanks to Gerard):
  WASHINGTON (Reuters) - General Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the U.S. military's Joint Chiefs of Staff, spoke with Pastor Terry Jones by phone on Wednesday and asked him to withdraw his support for a film whose portrayal of the Prophet Mohammad has sparked violent protests - including one that ended with the death of America's envoy to Libya. "In the brief call, Gen. Dempsey expressed his concerns over the nature of the film, the tensions it will inflame and the violence it will cause," Dempsey's spokesman, Colonel Dave Lapan, told Reuters. "He asked Mr. Jones to consider withdrawing his support for the film." U.S. military officials are concerned that the film could inflame tensions in Afghanistan, where 74,000 U.S. troops are fighting. The Taliban earlier on Wednesday called on Afghans to prepare for a fight against Americans and urged insurgents to "take revenge" on U.S. soldiers over the film.

ATLAS EXCLUSIVE: ROBERT SPENCER: El Presidente WILL “MAKE NETANYAHU PAY”

Obama Will “Make Netanyahu Pay”
By Robert Spencer

The elimination and then restoration (after, and only after, a national outcry) of language calling Jerusalem the capital of Israel from the Democrat Party platform last week was revealing enough, but a more significant abandonment of Israel came when the Pentagon decided to decrease drastically its participation in a joint military exercise with the Jewish state – while pursuing military exercises with the new Muslim Brotherhood regime in Egypt.

At the same time, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Martin Dempsey, even suggested that an Israeli attack on Iranian nuclear sites would be a crime, and that the U.S. would have no part of it, when he said: “I don’t want to be complicit if they choose to do it.”

An Israeli official explained that the diminishment of the joint exercise was “the Obama administration’s response to the dinner party Netanyahu held in Romney’s honor,” and another took a longer view: “Regardless of the exercise, the relations between Israel and the US have soured.” Most ominously, one official noted: “The US elections are in two months, and there is no doubt that President Barack Obama, if he is reelected, will make Netanyahu pay for his behavior. It will not pass quietly.”

Such a view is widely shared stateside – especially among those who long for just such an eventuality. The crude and arrogant stealthIslamic supremacist Reza Aslan tweeted gleefully: “The way Bibi has tried to manipulate and embarrass Obama at every turn, he should be scared shitless of Obama’s reelection.”

Israeli officials attributed Iran’s increasingly brazen statements of its genocidal intentions toward Israel and belligerence toward America well to this Obama Administration stance. One explained: “This is why the Iranians are issuing threatening statements against the US. Washington’s hesitant policy is making the Iranians feel freer to move ahead with the nuclear program. This is not how you create deterrence to avoid a military operation.”

Indeed, and it is a far cry from Obama’s address at the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) in May 2011, when he struck a conciliatory tone: “Even while we may at times disagree, as friends sometimes will, the bonds between the United States and Israel are unbreakable, and the commitment of the United States to the security of Israel is ironclad.”

Yet even when he spoke them, those words were hollow, and they’re even hollower now. According to Shimon Shiffer in Ynet News, the Administration’s abandonment of Israel in its attempt to head off an Iranian nuclear bomb wasn’t remotely limited to Dempsey’s “don’t want to be complicit” remark: “The United States has indirectly informed Iran, via two European nations, that it would not back an Israeli strike against the country’s nuclear facilities, as long as Tehran refrains from attacking American interests in the Persian Gulf…According to the report, Washington used covert back-channels in Europe to clarify that the US does not intend to back Israel in a strike that may spark aregional conflict.”

Not only did Obama inform a nation that considers itself an enemy of the U.S. that it would not support a U.S. ally, but Ynet added that Obama “is promoting a series of steps meant to curb an Israeli offensive against Iran, while forcing the Islamic Republic to take the nuclear negotiations more seriously.”

In that context it is useful to remember what the Kuwaiti MP Jama’an Al-Harbash said on al-Jazeera in March 2010: “This is a war of religion, not just a war between Arabs and Israelis, or a war between liberators and occupiers. This is an ideological war, an Islamic war, which will end in victory only under the banner of Jihad.”

Those who believe such things will never be compelled to take “nuclear negotiations” seriously enough to end the jihad against Israel. Islamic supremacists will never accept Israel’s existence, even if the “Palestinians” have a state, and even if Obama makes all kinds of concessions to Iran to get them to take negotiations more seriously. On the contrary: the Islamic supremacists will be emboldened to fight on for final victory against their weakened foe.

Netanyahu, and Israel, must not be “made to pay.” All free people must now stand against Obama, against the jihadis who wish to destroy the Jewish State, and with Israel.
