“‘allahu akbar.’ The phrase does not mean–as has been repeatedly reported–that allah is great. It means ‘allah is the greatest’ or ‘allah is the greater,’ as in greater than the Christian and Jewish G-ds and that of any other religion.”

If she knew what she was talking about, she would know that “Allahu Akbar” does mean Allah is the Greatest, BUT Allah is simply the Arabic word for God. What do you expect Arabs to call God? Did you think that the word “God” is universal? NOT EVERYONE SPEAKS ENGLISH; DIFFERENT LANGUAGES HAVE DIFFERENT WORDS FOR “GOD”. Any Christian or Jew would agree that God is the greatest. Please post a reply if you disagree. Something else that Debbie is incredibly wrong about:

“Minarets make a mosque higher than any building surrounding it, higher than any church, higher than any synagogue, higher than any Buddhist temple. And that’s the point of the minaret.”

Ehm, that is NOT the point of the minaret. Minarets were historically used to sound the call to prayer, but as Debbie helpfully pointed out, we have technology these days. Minarets are simply for the sake of architecture, and if people choose to build them, it is for them to decide the design of their mosque. I’m not sure what Debbie believes in, but if she believes in freedom of religion like all patriotic Americans such as myself do, she wouldn’t be making such a deal of minarets. But of course, she is just another hate-mongerer looking to make some cash.

Christophe Darbellay, president of the Christian Democratic People’s Party of Switzerland, made the statement in a television interview Tuesday, two days after Swiss voters passed an initiative to ban minarets.

The anti-minaret initiative came from the opposition ultra-conservative Swiss People’s Party and other right-wing political organizations. Critics say Darbellay is starting a “crusade” to attract voters by proposing similarly xenophobic measures.

Mainstream politicians and religious leaders across Europe have reacted with dismay to the anti-minaret vote.

According to the Swiss online daily Tagesanzeiger, Darbellay also wants to ban the wearing of burkas, head-to-toe veils worn by some fundamentalist Muslim women.

Darbellay reportedly said that existing cemeteries would not be affected by a ban, but that there should be no separate cemeteries in the future.

The Swiss People’s Party called for crackdowns on expressions of Muslim fundamentalism in 2006. Observers said the demand for separate cemeteries is an escalation.

You might want to take your argument up with the Malaysian islamic scholars, before you lecture us.

What is pretty low is not only his at contemptuous personal attack and lies as some form of revenge for point out his identity, but that the assumption of this blog that a known hate-blogger who hides behind blogspot’s policies and a banner that says his blog is humorous – is obviously a good source of information.

I think pettiness has its limits.

However, most of those in Dearborn, that destroyed the property values of my cousins house and forced her to move to Ann Arbour, do pay taxes.

So who cares if they work at FOMOCO as long as they make the cars with quality?

However, when it comes to Minarets, please get the story straight. They are not ‘rockets’. The Palestinians also think that they are rockets. If anyone looks at a Church Steeple and squints their eyes, they can easily make the steeple to look like one of those rockets from a 1950′s mission to Mars or Venus movie.

The fact is, Minarets are modeled after Air Traffic Control towers at your local International Airport. One has to understand that when man (or woman) thousands of years ago, went to sleep, they dreamt, and saw things in the future.

In fact Mohammed even stated that he saw the Jewish Temple in his sleep. OF COURSE HE SAW THE JEWISH TEMPLE, he worked for JEWISH MERCHANTS! IF he had worked for Chinese merchants he would have dreamt that he saw the Great Wall of China.

So we know that he saw it in his sleep, what else did he see in his sleep? Did he see an airport? Was God a frequent flyer?

I know that if I was asleep 1500 years ago and I saw an airport, I would probably try to recreate it to share it with others. This was also done in South America by the Naszca tribes when they woke up.

Then there is the fact that there is some guy in the tower calling out to come and land. Let us also notice that the Mosque itself HAS NO SEATING, because, after all, you cannot park an airplane in a hanger that is full of chairs!

I know that if I was given a virtual tour of an airport in my sleep hundreds of years ago, and I had some control over my society, then, I would most probably try to share the miraculous things I saw.

This is not specific just to the Muslims, many people slept and dreamt in the past and they all reported seeing things.
Ezekiel described the undercarriage of an airplane that he saw in his sleep. Even Maimonide’s commentator, stated in his writings that once when he was in the desert he heard men screaming in Italian that they were being attacked by something called ‘The Monte’, who was, no doubt General Montgomery chasing the Italians out of Egypt. However, when he made his mystical observations, it was when the English language was not yet invented, but Italian was prevalent in the Mediterranean region.

So a Mosque is, in fact an AIRPORT without a runway. Makes sense when you think about 9/11.

LJ: Mosques are modeled after airports and air traffic control towers? Hilarious. How many airports and air traffic control towers were there in the 7th century? DS
