    In the trenches for liberty!

    A Christian minister who has had heated arguments with Muslims on his TV Gospel show has been brutally attacked by three men who ripped off his cross and warned: ‘If you go back to the studio, we’ll break your legs.’
    The Reverend Noble Samuel was driving to the studio when a car pulled over in front of him. A man got out and came over to ask him directions in Urdu.
    Mr Samuel, based at Heston United Reformed Church, West London, said: ‘He put his hand into my window, which was half open, and grabbed my hair and opened the door.

    Frightened: TV minister Noble Samuel

    He started slapping my face and punching my neck. He was trying to smash my head on the steering wheel.


    More...


    Then he grabbed my cross and pulled it off and it fell on the floor. He was swearing. The other two men came from the car and took my laptop and Bible.’
    The Metropolitan Police are treating it as a ‘faith hate’ assault and are hunting three Asian men.
    In spite of the attack, Mr Samuel went ahead with his hour-long live Asian Gospel Show on the Venus satellite channel from studios in Wembley, North London. During the show the Muslim station owner Tahir Ali came on air to condemn the attack.
    Pakistan-born Mr Samuel, 48, who was educated by Christian missionaries and moved to Britain 15 years ago, said that over the past few weeks he has received phone-in calls from people identifying themselves as Muslims who challenged his views.
    ‘They were having an argument with me,’ he said. ‘They were very aggressive in saying they did not agree with me. I said those are your views and these are my views.’
    He said that he, his wife Louisa, 48, and his son Naveed, 19, now fear for their safety, and police have given them panic alarms. ‘I am frightened and depressed,’ he said. ‘My show is not confrontational.’


    Oh I'm glad they gave them panic alarms. The police will at least know where to find their bodies. :xmad:

    Yeah, Jack Ryan brought this up in the current Muslim thread. Sad... very sad. I was glad to see that the owner of the station that hosts the Reverend's show went on-air to condemn the attack, and that owner is a Muslim himself.

    "...One hundred percent of the successful terrorist attacks on commercial airlines for 20 years have been committed by Arabs. When there is a 100 percent chance of being hijacked by an Arab Muslim Extremist, it ceases to be a profile. It's called a 'description of the suspect...."

    6-10 Answers of "D" - You have some knowledge of terrorism, but have lots of studying to do.
    11-15 Answers of "D" - You're knowledgeable on the topic of terrorism, but need to brush up on current events.
    16-20 Answers of "D" - You're a terrorism expert. It's likely the CIA could use your talents.
    ROPMA Note: This quiz is updated frequently, due to Radical Islam FundaMENTAList terrorist activities. We live for the day this quiz no longer requires updates. If we've missed an event, please send us the details so we may update the quiz. email can be sent to Webmaster@ROPMA.NET

    Note: I am aware that the quote by Ms. Coulter is grammatically unsound insofar as the logic. Technically, it should refer to if your plane is highjacked, the 100% likelihood based on history of the highjacker being a Muslim male extremist between 17 and 40.

    This will continue to happen until the Elders in both the Muslim faith and Islam society stand up and denounce this kind of action. This type of actions are happening more often across civilized Europe. It needs to stop!

    Fixed it for you.

    It will stop but only after the enemy has been defeated. You can slap them here and there but they understand and respect strength. So talking only shows weakness and they feed on it.

    Sorry, BE, but I have to agree with jeremy on this one. Lars pointed out to me the other night when we were chatting over dinner that if a handful of ultra-conservative Christians were to blow up an abortion clinic, the local churches would stand up and denounce the behavior, even if they didn't agree with abortion either. He gave several other examples.

    If the target of our malice (Islamic extremists) really are extremists and represent only 2-3% of the Muslim population, then the others of that Faith need to stand up and push back against it. I mentioned that there was an Islamic leader (in NY, I think) that did stand up and denounce the 9/11 attacks, but Lars countered that the group only stood up after 9/11. Why aren't they pushing back still every time Bin Laden throws out another video?

    If the leaders of the Muslim community want to stop the profiling and really reiterate that Islam is a peaceful religion and that these terrorists only represent a small fraction of their followers, then the leaders of that community need to stand up and show us.

    And the police that would chase them down and catch them would very likely be Christian, and the prosecutor that tries the case would very likely be Christian (as least nominally). And the jury that convicts would very likely be composed largely of Christians. And the person who slips in the needle would probably be Christian.

    Because, you see, among Christians, the supporters of "terrorism" really are a "tiny minority" and the majority really don't accept that kind of behavior from said "tiny minority."

    there comes a point where you have to ask yourself, is it really only a small percentage of the population? for every soldier on the front line, theres 4-5 in the rear- providing funding, refuge, safe travel and the like. so if 3 percent of muslims are terrorists, that puts up to 15% as active participants. and off of that 15% how many relatives know about what they do, but remain silent? i dont ever see an end to terrorism. even if every imam got out and denounced it publically, how many are professing jihad secretly? personally, i dont trust any muslims, and never will.

    With all of the violence around the world being caused by this religion of peace and the lack of any other voice but the fanatic, it makes you wonder if those who claim to be moderate or peace loving are not actually rooting for the bad guys. I hope you remember the images of Muslims around the world dancing in the streets when we were attacked on 9/11. I just can't believe there is just a small percentage that wants to see us all with our throats slit open. Because no one else will stand up to them, we must.

    And they have found many examples of this. Imams that talk in English about love and respect. Then the FBI gets tapes of them in Arabic calling us cows and supporting some extremist position. Look at the reaction of muslims through out the world after 9/11. All of them cheered and celebrated the terrorists (reports said this wasn't the case in Iran and that was the lone exception). Look at the snarky behavior of CAIR in this country. Funny how they raise funds for groups that always seem to have ties with Hezbollah or Hamas. I am not saying that every single Muslim is a terrorist or even supports terrorists. But until they start working with authorities to bring down terrorist groups and speaking out openly in the Mosques (in English and in Arabic) against radical groups, then they haven't earned any respect IMO.

    Additionally, someone elsewhere (I think in the closed thread) made the comparison that someone who would defend his family and himself with violence is comparable to those who would initiate violence against America and her citizens. The two are not comparable at all- one is attacking, the other, defending. At a nation-state level, I could even consider a pre-emptive strike acceptable, if based upon rock-solid and indisputable evidence.

    I was once, on PDO, called a "Left Liberal Democrat Socialist Fascist" because, given the scenario that I am walking down a street with my family and up ahead, I see a male person with olive skin (possibly wearing a turban), I would elect not to immediately present my pistol and kill that person-after all, they're all sworn to convert, enslave, or kill US, so we should, in that person's mind, do so first.

    Needless to say, we did not reach an agreement of any type on this issue.

    That is the perception they'd like us to have. But the money comes from the supposedly "peaceable" ones. If it was such a small percentage and the majority was against it, they's squash it out.

    I am not going to further anything from any previous post. But since I am unable to address you privately and the thread has been closed, if this is true "We're more on the same side than you think."

    I will be looking forward to making your acquaintance at the statehouse on 3/25/09 at 11:30 am. I am not one to hold a grudge. And just so you understand that I do understand. Apparently the words you used were also in haste. I apologize for any words miss spoken on my part, however we do have a different view as to what constitutes a light insult. And sometimes its difficult to determine a persons meaning and manner in text. Its easier to let words fly on the internet that you wouldn't use face to face. So bygones be bygones. Come and help us to stand up for our rights let all our voices be heard as one. Help us to address our wayward elected officials. Change has to start with us. If we do nothing but sit on our asses and bitch on the internet all we will get is nothing, and more of the same...:yesway:

    If you want to really believe that Muslims are all terrorists & there are no Islamic governments that fight against & denounce terrorism, then I guess that's your right, but you aren't being honest with yourselves or anyone else.

    Lets go with that headline right there. Islam does prohibit the killing of innocent (Muslim) people. Non Muslims are kafirs (non believers) and not innocent. So it is a matter of saying what is true but implying something completely different. Americans see innocent people and think it includes them when it does not. If you have not read the Koran I recommend it. I would also suggest a book by Bridget Gabriel it is titled Because they Hate.
    She is a Lebanese Christian who survived the Lebanon war. She runs a website here American Congress For Truth | Brigitte Gabriel
    Put your head in the sand all you want.

    It's funny how THIS case is getting national press here in the States.

    This kind of thing happens EVERY DAY in India. Every Single Day. The ONLY reason this is "news" here is because of the TV-show aspect.

    Christians are robbed and beaten. Christian ministers' wives are raped and beaten and set on fire in front of their family's eyes. Their kids are kidnapped. The POLICE and MILITARY even do some of the persecution themselves.

    John records Jesus as saying ""If the world hates you, be aware that it hated me before it hated you. If you belonged to the world, the world would love you as its own. Because you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world-the world hates you."

    And, just like in the accounts of the Early church we read from the pages of scripture, the Church in India is growing almost exponentially.

    The Church grew exponentially, even during the height of persecution at the hands of the Romans; and so it continues today.

    "Do not pray for easier lives. Pray to be stronger men."

    On a side note, I can almost guarantee why the Church here in America (and in most of Western society) is dying.

    like i said, its very easy to say one thing and do another. these people live and die on the words of their clerics. it just seems to me that if there really was a widespread outcry by muslim clergy against terrorism, it would end, or at least become less mainstream, like it is in the christian religions.
