"They have eyes, but cannot see" (Psalms 115:5). The arrogant heretical leadership of the anti-religious state is blind as a bat; Hashem cancelled the 2005 Impurade with the Disengagement from Gaza; this past August's gay fiasco was cancelled by 4,000 Hizbulla-sent missiles falling on the north of Israel. To what lengths are the senseless leaders forcing Hashem to go in order to preserve the sanctity of His holy city Jerusalem this coming November? Maybe Achmadinejad, Assad, and Nasralla know the answer.
"If Hashem will not guard the city, the watchman's vigilance is in vain" (Psalms 127:1). If the silly politicians close their eyes to the enemies of holiness, Hashem makes them blind to their enemies in measure-for-measure.

May Hashem help us.

Tajikistan's Only Synagogue Is Attacked Again
















Tajikistan's only Synagogue Is attacked again.

Tuesday, September 19, 2006

Once again the world is silent as Jews are persecuted and hounded into leaving another country. Over 2,ooo years of Cultural history don't seem to count for much nowadays.
Where is the World outrage??
For the second time in a month, vandals this past week, attacked the last remaining synagogue in the city of Dushanbe, capital of the Central Asian republic of Tajikistan, in what is believed to have been an attempt to set the building on fire.

"Last Wednesday, two youths approached the synagogue and hurled a Molotov cocktail into the courtyard, which burst into flames," David Gourevich, the Chabad-Lubavitch movement's chief rabbi of Central Asia, told The Jerusalem Post by phone from neighboring Uzbekistan, where he is based.
"Two elderly Jews who were inside at the time saw the youths and began to chase them, but they managed to get away," he said, adding that local police were called but failed to intervene.
The incident marked the second time in the past month that the synagogue has come under attack, the rabbi said.
On August 18, unidentified assailants started a fire in the building and fled the scene. The flames damaged some curtains before being extinguished. The perpetrators were never caught.
"The authorities are refusing to provide protection for the site, and say that it is the Jewish community's responsibility to pay for security," Gourevich said. "But the community does not have any money to pay for guards or security on its own."
The Dushanbe synagogue garnered international attention earlier this year, when Tajik authorities announced plans to raze it in order to make way for the expansion of a presidential palace.
The Synagogue has already been partly demolished,the destruction ceased after ProtestsIn February, demolition teams began tearing down the century-old synagogue, but halted in the wake of an international outcry, though not before they had managed to destroy the community's mikve, an office and a classroom.
The US government, various Jewish organizations, and the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) had all pressed Tajikistan not to knock down the country's sole Jewish house of worship.
But the fate of the synagogue continues to remain uncertain. According to Gourevich, there has been no change on the ground in the intervening six months.
"When I visited Dushanbe a few months ago, I met with the city's chief architect as well as with other officials," he said. "They told me they were going to draw up plans for an alternative site for a synagogue in the city, but as far as I know, this has not yet happened.
"Nonetheless, I told the authorities it would be better if the synagogue were left in place," the rabbi said. "If world Jewry showed more of an interest, it wouldn't be touched."
It is unclear if the two attacks on the synagogue in the past month are connected with the controversy over the government's desire to demolish the building.
Gourevich noted that services continue to be held at the synagogue on the three days a week - Mondays, Thursdays and Shabbat - when the Torah is read.
He also noted that he recently received official permission from the Tajik government to open a Chabad-Lubavitch office in Dushanbe, and that he is now looking for a full-time emissary, and financial support, to staff it.
Some 350 Jews, most of whom are elderly, still reside in Dushanbe. "Virtually no young people remain, and most members of the community are either ill or destitute," said Gourevich, who sends a shohet to the city once a week to provide kosher meat for them. "They too are Jews, and we have to help them," he saidGourevich added that he hopes to visit the community before Rosh Hashana to assess the current situation.

Don't allow the world to be fooled by this. This isn't just ' a long steady escalation of anti semitism' it appears even more sinister. The Tajikistan authorites have been trying to destroy the few remaining elements of Jewish Infrastructure. Is it a co-incidence that 'youths' are trying to burn the last remaining Synagogue, I fear there may be more behind this than meets the eye. This the same Synagogue that the Tajikistan Authorites wanted to pull down for palace extensions! This is the Synagogue which just happens to be where a Presidential Palace is being planned/built.
Intimidation and Oppression.The Authorities have tried to bully the Dushanbe Jews many times. They had commenced destroying the Synagogue once before, until its destruction was holted.
In an atmosphere of Oppresion and Hatred, the Dushabe Jews are intimidated. The last time the Synagogue was being pulled down a local citizen reported that when a Jewish member of the synagogue filmed the destruction, officials threatened to break his video-camera. Reports have circulated that members of the community indicate that they have been threatened by government officials for raising their voices. What were the poor Jews of Dushanbe,Tajikistan offered? A peice of land in an undeveloped part of Dushanbe and no assistance with rebuilding. Oh and the option to pay rent on a facility 200 metres away from the block of land. Rip down the Synagogue. Steal the Land the Synagogue has been on for over a 100 years. Pay no compensation. Offer a remoter piece of land in an undeveloped area of the city. Pay rent for facilities you once owned, but now would be forced to pay rent for!
The latest fire bombing has brought the official response: Security is the concern of the Jewish community. It is their responsibility to pay for security. A State sponsored plan of forced exodus? Where is the world outrage here?

Ace of Spades Reader Spotted Wanted Terrorist ?

A commenter at Ace of Spades may have spotted terrorist Adnan Al-Shukrijuma in Texas. Some have speculated he may be involved in planning an attack on the US during the Ramadan season.

The pictures above show what he looks like. Be sure to contact the FBI if you think you’ve seen him.

This is the latest up-date on Adnan Al-Shukrijuma, suspected terrorist leader, wanted for questioning by the FBI.

SEPTEMBER 24th - WARNING OF ANOTHER POTENTIAL TERRORIST ATTACK IN THE U. S. OR ISRAEL

I thought that this was too important not to post. I read it for the first time on a credible Right Wing/Conservative/PRO-ISRAEL blog, and felt that if there were even the slightest chance that there may be some danger to either ISRAEL or THE UNITED STATES, that it was worth re-posting.

Like my Grandfather always said, "Fore warned is fore armed."

There appears to be a lot of evidence to warrant our vigilance. You decide .....

MY Vast Right Wing Conspiracy

Adnan G. El Shukrijumah - attack in US coming this month (?)


Aliases: Adnan G. El Shukri Jumah, Abu Arif, Ja'far Al-Tayar, Jaffar Al-Tayyar, Jafar Tayar, Jaafar Al-Tayyar


Patrick at Clarity and Resolve has this:

The only journalist to have interviewed bin Laden after 9/11 says that Adnan al-Shukrijumah, a jihadi lowlife with a big FBI/CIA target on his back, is poised to launch another spectacular jihad attack on U.S. soil.
Dubai, 12 Sept. (AKI) - Osama bin Laden is planning to carry out new, more destructive attacks inside the United States, and there is someone working on this terror plot currently in the US, according to Hamid Mir, the famed Pakistani journalist who obtained the only post-9/11 interviews with Osama bin Laden and Ayman al-Zawahiri. In an interview quoted on the website of the al-Arabiya television network, Mir spoke about his last trip to Afghanistan and his meeting with al-Qaeda members and Taliban leaders. In his interview with Al.Arabiya.net, Mir said that the al-Qaeda and Taliban fighters referred to attacks targeting the US-led coalition forces during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan which begins on 24 September, and that the al-Qaeda leader, Osama bin Laden was in "good" health during a meeting he had recently with the Taliban leader, Mullah Mohammed Omar. Mir also said that bin Laden has assigned a man named Adnan Al-Shukri Juma to carry out a new attack within the US which is intended to be larger than the 11 September, 2001 attacks. According to Mir, Adnan Jumaa has smuggled explosives and nuclear materials into the US through the Mexican border over the last two years and is hiding somewhere in America where the FBI has not been able to locate him.


Rusty Shackelford:

Hamid Mir, who is the only journalist ever to interview both Osama bin Laden and Ayman al Zawahiri, claims that he learned this information on a recent trip to Afghanistan last month. So, the guy does have a track record, but considering that he got the information from al Qaeda and the Taliban ...... well, these guys aren't exactly reliable sources. So, yeah the headline is alarmist, but blame my editor and not me. A man called Adnan Al-Shukri Jumaa (Juma, Jumah) is presently in the U.S. and has been assigned the task of detonating the nuclear material. The report does not say whether an actual nuclear bomb was smuggled in or only material to be used for a "dirty bomb". Reports about Jumaa have been circulating for years. His real name is Adnan G. El Shukrijumah and he is wanted by the FBI. Shukrijumah has long been rumored to be inside the U.S. awaiting orders to detonate a dirty bomb.


Gateway Pundit:

From WIKI: When Khaled Shaikh Mohammed, former operational commander of al-Qaeda, was captured in March 2003 and interrogated, he fingered Adnan el Shukrijumah as the man who would later be in charge of a new attack. (That was a while back, I know.)


Dan Riehl:

There's been a recent alert in Trinidad / Guyana for an al-Qaeda operative linked to a possible Dirty Bomb attack in the US to coincide with Ramadan, which I believe begins September 24th.


Also:

It appears as though the news was carried in May in the Free Canadian Press, which also lists a new alias for al-Qaeda operative Adnan al-Shurrijumah.
There's a $5-million bounty on the head of El Shukrijumah, who is being sought by the FBI and CIA in connection with a plot to detonate a dirty bomb, (a conventional explosive laced with radioactive material). El Shukrijumah has been described as "the next Mohammad Atta" by American authorities.
"In addition, the informant said at least three other al Qaida terrorists were seen in Hamilton in 2002. They include Anas al-Liby, one of the FBI's most wanted terrorists, Jaber A. Elbaneh and Amer El-Maati," Gertz wrote on Oct. 17, 2003.
McMaster's online student records for the Year 2000 list BSc graduate Ciro Vincente Vitolo studying Physics at the Faculty of Science. The word "Lost" appears in brackets beside his name. Vitolo's record is the only one marked "Lost" among the ones viewed.
From the bottom of the article, it appears in this case, University officials may have been less than co-operative with Bill Gertz from the Washington Times - and also that al-Shurrijumah may have been enrolled under an alias, Ciro Vitolo. Earlier reports indicate that due to his many years in the US and his appearance, al-Shurrijumah is able to pass as an individual of Italian descent.


And Allah has this:

3. The Blotter has run not one but two stories about Shukrijumah in the past five days. The only "news" in both stories was that the FBI is looking for him but still hasn't found him. From September 7th:

Shukrijumah is suspected to have had contacts with 9/ll hijack leader Mohammed Atta before leaving the United States shortly before the attacks ..... Virtually every one of the FBI's 56 field offices are involved in the hunt, according to Stuart McArthur, the assistant Special Agent in Charge of the FBI's Miami field office, who heads up the bureau's hunt for Shukrijumah.


And from yesterday:

A one-time Florida chemistry student has the FBI worried and working overtime ..... As the clock ticks they fear he will help guide al Qaeda to another terrorist attack somewhere inside the United States. "He has a knowledge base of the U.S. that he can share with other al Qaeda operatives," the FBI's McArthur said. Why would they run two stories when there's no actual news to report?


From the Counterterrorism Blog on Monday:

The video is out - see a picture of al-Zawahiri below from that video. Al-Zawahiri warns us of more attacks in the future: "I tell them your leaders are hiding from you the true extent of the disaster which will shick you. And the days are pregnant and giving birth to new events with Allah's permission and guidance." You can see an excerpt with highlights courtesy of Rita Katz's SITE Institute.
Now of course Al Qaeda says this stuff all the time, but what about all the reports about Adnan El Shukrijumah? And like Allah said, why all the recent reports?

The LA Times, from September 3:

Terrorism authorities both inside and outside the government say they believe Shukrijumah is a major Al Qaeda figure, and the hunt for him is intense, with an FBI team tracking him virtually full time. So far, their quarry has remained elusive. Whereas Al Qaeda's core followers are young, poor and relatively uneducated, Shukrijumah has attended college and is comfortable with technology. He's also a naturalized U.S. citizen whose appearance would allow him to pass as Latino, Indian or Middle Eastern and who speaks English with no discernible accent, officials say. That background makes Shukrijumah especially threatening, counter-terrorism authorities say. He is dangerous "because he is so trusted in the organization and because he has traveled in the Western world and is familiar with its customs and procedures," said Joseph Billy Jr., assistant FBI director for counter-terrorism. Shukrijumah is believed to be "the guy who was reared to replace [Khalid Sheik] Mohammed as an Al Qaeda senior trainer, facilitator and propagandist, playing a central role in the development of hundreds of the network's future soldiers," said Sajjan Gohel, director for international security at the London-based AsiaPacific Foundation. "He is part of Al Qaeda Stage 2. "The foundation consults on terrorism assessment for governments."
Shukrijumah has not been charged with a crime, but federal grand juries in Virginia and South Florida are hearing evidence about his activities.


There's a lot of background about Shukrijumah at that LAST link.


So, September 24th? Ramadan?


Ace is keeping the guy's picture up in the sidebar, saying:

I'm going to put up his pictures in the sidebar permanently until he's captured. Seems like a useful thing to do. Works for America's Most Wanted.

Sounds like a good idea to me, too. It can't hurt. I'll have them up later today.

JEWISH HERO'S OF 9/11

During the Attack:

The words of Jimmy Kelty, a commanding officer in the Manhattan Fire Marshal's office and brother of Capt. Gene Kelty of the famed Ladder Company 10, after the North Tower collapsed:
"I couldn't see. It was total darkness. I couldn't see or breathe. I was sure I was going to die. There was no way to get any oxygen into my lungs because the air was so filled with debris. I could barely see, up ahead I saw a flashing light, praying that it might be one of our rigs. When I got near the light, a door opened and these guys just hauled me in and slapped an oxygen mask on my face." The vehicle, Kelty said, was a Hatzalah ambulance. "I'm here because of them. Whenever they saw someone stumbling by, they would reach out and save another person. It was amazing."

Chevra Hatzalah Volunteer Ambulance Corps, Inc. played a pivotal role in the World Trade Center rescue operations. The very first ambulance to arrive at the World Trade Center following the first plane crash on September 11, 2001 was a Hatzalah ambulance. By the time the second airplane crashed into the second tower, there were two-dozen Hatzalah ambulances, including Hatzalah’s Communications and Command Center trailer, and more than 100 Hatzalah EMTs, paramedics, and doctors on scene. Before the buildings came down, ambulances had arrived from Hatzalah of Rockland County, 40 miles to the North, with additional medics and EMTs. During the first hour, over 125 patients were transported to area hospitals by Hatzalah ambulances.

At the south end of the Twin Towers, Hatzalah was the predominant ambulance service covering the disaster scene. Hatzalah ambulances transported numerous victims, including fire fighters and police officers.

08.45 a.m. - New York : First aircraft crashes into the World Trade Center North tower; this is AA11.
09.03 a.m. - New York : Second aircraft flies into the South tower, on live television; this is UA175.
09.18 a.m. - New York : FAA closes all New York airports.
09.21 a.m. - New York : All city bridges and tunnels closed.
09.40 a.m. - New York : FAA grounds all US domestic flights.
09.45 a.m. - Washington : Reports of two explosions in the Pentagon
10.00 a.m. - New York : The WTC South tower collapses.
10.10 a.m . - Washington : Part of the Pentagon collapses.
10.10 a.m. - Pennsylvania : UA93, a B767, crashes not far from Pittsburgh.
10.29 a.m. - New York : The WTC North tower collapses.

In addition, Hatzalah assisted in the rescue of thousands of men, women and children, who escaped to the docks near the Holocaust Museum in Battery Park and helped evacuate these people onto boats headed for New Jersey . During the day some volunteers were missing , but, thank G-d, there were few casualties amongst the Hatzalah team - miraculously all Hatzalah members survived.

ISLAM DECLARES CYBER JIHAD

If you thought Israel didn't fair too well in the Media War then this information may shock you. In Dec of 2000 Israel had an estimated internet usage of 1,270,000 people, Iran 250,000. Now Israel's Internet usage since Dec 2000 has grown 152 %, in the same period Iran's has grown 2,900 % to 7,500,000. Yes, that's 7 and a half million, that's more than double Israel's internet population. We've been the victim of the Arab block in the UN for almost 60 years, we're now the victim of the 'Organisation of the Islamic Conference' block' with regards to the UN's Human Rights Council. Now we are being absolutely swamped by Muslim Bloggers, who blogged with a frenzy posting millions of the same photos and videos all over the net during the War against Hezbollah. In the last 2 months the incidence of Hacker attacks on Jewish websites and blogs has grown exponentially. Are we facing a new type of war fought by Cyber Jihadists?

ACT NOW, FOR THE SANCTITY OF OUR BELOVED JERUSALEM

This is an EMERGENCY POST, to warn of yet another threat to the sanctity of our BELOVED JERUSALEM !! In August WE WON the fight to prevent a planned World Gay Pride Parade, the ImpureParade, as some have dubbed it, but now they're back, and we must TAKE A STAND AGAINST THIS ABOMINATION NOW, if we're going to prevent it this time !!

I once again PULLED A GIDEON, AND SLIPPED INTO THE ENEMY CAMP, so-to-speak, to see what they have planned and what they are saying, and THIS IS WHAT I FOUND, on one of their numerous sites:

World Pride organisers negotiate gay march date.

A new date of 21st September was scheduled for the march, but this was subsequently rejected by the police.

Minister demands gay pride exodus from Jerusalem

Torsten Hojer

The Jerusalem Open House (JOH) has responded to Israeli authorities with negotiation after government ministers thwarted plans for a lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender ‘Pride and Tolerance’ march in Jerusalem.

Despite this setback Noa Sattah, the executive director of the JOH, issued a rallying call to Israel saying: “I call everyone who cares about the future of Jerusalem to come and take part in the march."

PinkNews.co.uk reported last week that Minister for Jerusalem Affairs, Yaakov Edri, told JOH which was organising the march, to hold the gay pride parade outside of the capital city.

Initially, no reason for the demand was given, but then the minister cited "heavy workload" on the police, despite the fact that other public events are taking place as scheduled.

Now, JOH has offered the police a list of alternative dates for holding the March for Pride and Tolerance in Jerusalem.

The march was planned to take place during August but was rescheduled due to the war in Lebanon.

"The March for Pride and Tolerance in Jerusalem is a voice calling for promoting equal rights for the GLBT community, for pluralism, and for tolerance in Jerusalem and in Israel,” said Ms Sattah.

Organisers have maintained throughout dealings with authorities and police that this years’ march was of massive importance due to an increase in anti-gay feeling in the region.

“The list of alternative dates we provided the police is meant to assist the authorities that license the march,” claimed Ms Sattah, “we hope the police and the municipality will make a decision that correlates with the court's decision last May regarding equal rights and freedom of speech for the LGBT community.”

A new date of 21st September was scheduled for the march, but this was subsequently rejected by the police.

JOH are still awaiting a response to the new dates.

............


AGAIN, I STATE, "THIS ABOMINATION MUST NOT BE ALLOWED IN OUR HOLY JERUSALEM, OR ANYWHERE IN ISRAEL, FOR THAT MATTER !!!

PLEASE, STAND WITH US FOR THE SANCTITY OF OUR BELOVED JERUSALEM !!!

ACT NOW, TO VOICE OUR OPPOSITION TO THIS PLANNED MARCH !!!

TAKE A STAND FOR HOLINESS, NOW !!!!

THIS POST WILL NOT GAIN ME ANY FRIENDS

A dear, dear friend of mine once told me that I "walk on egg-shells" too much, and she was right !! This post is very difficult for me to write. I hope that it doesn't offend those whom it is intended to encourage, but I feel I have to write what is on my heart. I love Yisrael with everything that is in me, and therefore I must speak. It was Golda Meir who said, "Israel can only lose once", and she was right !! This recent war has left Yisrael in a most dangerous situation, that of appearing weak before her sworn enemies. Regardless of who is to blame, the Arab nations surrounding Israel are now boasting of their victory over the mighty Israeli army, not because Israel's soldiers failed, but because their hands were tied and the campaign aborted by the government.
It is now crucial that Israel abandon these suicidal policies and reevaluate their failed tactics in light of the awkward and dangerous situation they now find themselves in. This post will not gain me any friends and may very well cost me the lose of some, but we, I believe, have entered the time period that we refer to as the End of Days, to which I have dedicated this blog, and in this light, time is of the essence. Since her miraculous rebirth as a nation, in 1948, Israel has had to fight to survive, against impossible odds and surrounded by enemies, attached again and again, yet she HAS survived and even prospered to the world's amazement. How has she been able to survive? Was it her great population, her size, her military might, her superior intellect, or perhaps her brilliant strategists? No, no, no, a thousand times NO !! It was her G-D !! HaShem alone gave her her victories !! When will Israel realize this essential TRUTH? With HaShem, VICTORY IS ASSURED, without HaShem, DESTRUCTION IS AT THE DOOR !! As the great prophet, Elijah once asked, "how long will you keep hopping between two opinions"?? [ I Kings 18:21, JPS ] When Elijah said this, he was telling the people to choose between the only true and living G-D and the false god Baal, "If the L-rd is G-D, follow Him; and if Baal, follow him!" [ I Kings 18:21, JPS English Edition of the Tanakh ] Baal was a false deity, an idol of the region at that time, but I wish to point-out that trust in anything other than G-D can also be an idol far more blinding and deadly than this Baal. When will we learn and at what price, that it is G-D alone who can establish and keep a nation, or at His determination, tear down a nation, not we ourselves. The nation of Israel must determine to TRUST IN G-D ALONE, not in her own abilities, or in foreign powers. This has become Israel's Baal of today, and with Elijah we must ask ourselves, "how long will we keep hopping about between two opinions?" Which will it be? Will Israel TRUST G-D or TRUST IN IDOLS? Choose wisely, for it is on this chose that Israel will survive or be defeated. CHOOSE WHERE YOU WILL PLACE YOUR EMUNAH ( FAITH ) , THEN ACT ACCORDINGLY !!! WE MUST BEGIN BY DETERMINING TO PUT A STOP TO ANY AND ALL FUTURE PLANS FOR WITHDRAWALS !! THERE MUST BE NO MORE LAND FOR PEACE DEALS !! IT'S G-D'S LAND AND NOT A BARGAINING-CHIP !! DO NOT DO, AS ESAU DID, AND SELL YOUR BIRTHRIGHT AND THAT OF YOUR DESCENDANTS, FOR A WORTHLESS BOWL OF "PEACE SOUP" !!!! IT WILL LEAVE YOU FEELING VERY EMPTY, AS IT DID ESAU !! I BEG OF YOU, HONOR G-D, SAY NO TO ALL LAND FOR PEACE PROPOSALS !!! HONOR YOUR BIRTHRIGHT, AND G-D WILL HONOR HIS PROMISES !!!
