5.0 out of 5 stars When Jihad Came to America - Complacency is Unforgiving, March 13, 2003

By A Customer

"If America continues (its pro-Israel policies), it will become a new front in this (jihad) war".

In this 1994/2001 documentary, an American-based Islamic leader clearly stated that America would suffer at the hands of Islam. He declared the U.S. Capitol was "Zionist-occupied territory" and gave taped lectures on jihad, specifically stating combat strikes should be made on American military targets in the Middle East. On October 12, 2000, the USS Cole was attacked by Islamic suicide bombers in the port of Aden, Yemen, killing many sailors and nearly sinking the Aegis guided-missile destroyer. As of August 8, 2005, the U.S.A. has suffered 1,835 combat deaths in Iraq, many due to suicide attacks, along with 13,189 wounded (icasualties.org/oif/).

With regard to the "Zionist" references, a review of 20th-century history shows Adolph Hitler making a speech, in 1939, that said war would bring about the elimination of the Jew from Europe. The parallels are striking.

In the companion book to the qur'an, the ha'dith, the Last Hour of human history is not established until the Jews are wiped out by muslims, with the rocks betraying them (Volume 4, Book 52, vvs. 176-177). Other confirmation of this teaching is found in another volume, ha'dith sahih muslim, (Book 41, vvs. 6981-6985), again with stones and now even trees betraying Jews to be slaughtered. There is no mistaken interpretation here, as this is (shockingly so) the plain reading of the text.

The original video was updated with news clips of the 9/11/2001 attack and re-released as this product. Far too few Americans understood the very real problem that was already firmly entrenched on American soil. For Israel this problem has come at a high cost: Since September, 2000, 1,073 people (Israelis, Israeli-Arabs, Europeans and Americans, among others) have been killed and 7,253 injured by the Intifada (Israeli gov't website). According to this documentary two prominent terror groups active against Israel, Hamas and Hizbollah, have extensive networks in the USA. They are seen in combat training videos, teaching hatred of the Jews at summer camps for children, ranting at the Bartle Hall convention center in Kansas City, Missouri in 1989 and 1990, and singing praises to Russian Kalishnikov rifles in New Jersey.

Hijacking airliners has been a favorite among Islamic terrorists since the early 1970's. For this reason Israel has armed guards on every single El Al flight. While mosques can be found in most major American cities, in Saudi Arabia, where Islam began, no non-Islamic place of worship can be built or operated. No Christian Church or Jewish Synagogue is allowed on Saudi soil and this has been reconfirmed in March, 2003 by the Saudi gov't as official policy (source: Yahoo! News, Middle East section, March 10, 2003, "Saudis Won't Allow Churches on Its Land", Associated Press):

Those who want to establish churches "are, unfortunately, fanatics," (Prince) Sultan said. "There are no churches--not in the past, the present or future ... Whoever said this must shut up and be ashamed." (source: Saudi Arabia Defense Minister Prince Sultan, Chicago Sun-Times Internet Edition, Religion section, March 14, 2003).

While this video (correctly) states that most Islamics are not terrorists, it also states that most terrorists are in fact Islamic. In 2002, the University of North Carolina tried to introduce a sanitized version of the koran to its students with a book that avoided, for the most part, Surah chapters 2, 5 and 9. Anyone unfamiliar with the teachings can browse an online koran. For reference, peruse the following: Surah 2:191, 9:123, 9:5, 8:65, 9:29, 3:85, 5:11, 9:28, 2:193, 47:4, 8:12, 4:171 and pay particular attention to 5:51 and 9:30.

With 9/11/2001 already fading in the memories of many Americans, the perpetual terror alerts breed their own form of contempt and complacency. Yet the reality of Islamic states with weapons of mass destruction, particularly biological and chemical agents (Syria), remains a constant. Among these, Iraq and Libya sport military complexes, bunkers and plants built by France and Germany. Iran's nuclear complexes were built with Russian assistance (any surprise on how they voted regarding Saddam Hussein?).

Dr. Khan, the father of the (active and deployed) nuclear missile program for Pakistan, traveled to North Korea, Libya and Iran (and possibly Saudi Arabia) up to and through the year 2000, providing nuclear weapons technology. Hailed as a "national hero" Dr. Khan, amazingly, was pardoned by Pakistani president Pervez Musharraf. Even more amazingly, U.S. State Department spokesman Richard Boucher stated the U.S. supported the pardon (source: CNN.Com, "U.S. supports nuclear pardon", February 6, 2004, http://edition.cnn.com/2004/WORLD/asiapcf/02/05/pakistan.nuclear/). In the Bible, a final war (or leading up to such) on the Jew and the nation of Israel is found in Ezekiel chapters 38-39, with specific references to Libya and Iran in Ezekiel 38:5. This war has not taken place yet in history. This war takes place after Israel is reestablished as a nation by God (Ezekiel 34:13, 36:24, 37, among others). Are we witnessing the build-up to these events? However, Libya has apparently given up its chemical warfare on December 19, 2003, additionally giving up nerve agents, biological and nuclear pursuits (source: GlobalSecurity.Org, http://www.globalsecurity.org/wmd/world/libya/cw.htm). Items like these may explain why Israel had deployed Arrow anti-missile missiles towards Libya and Iran.

Iran's IRBM, the Shahab-3/Zelzal-3 is a derivative of the North Korean No Dong ballistic missile, developed during the Gorbachev leadership in the Soviet Union and using Chinese assistance. With a current max range of about 900 miles, Shahab-3 is close to bringing Tel Aviv, Israel (988 miles) within striking distance.

With regards to the video, I would have preferred this on DVD with chapter access. Originally aired on PBS, this updated VHS copy, while it could have been better edited, is quite revealing.

UPDATE: Former University of South Florida engineering professor Dr. Sami Al-Arian, and others, are on federal trial for raising U.S. funds to support terror, specifically Palestinian Islamic Jihad (source: http://www.sptimes.com/2005/07/22/Hillsborough/Martyrdom_a_key_issue.shtml). Dr. Al-Arian is seen in "Jihad in America" hosting a cable access show in Tampa, called "Peace Be Upon You".

5.0 out of 5 stars Wake Up America, November 11, 2001

By	RitaSue Siegel (New York, NY USA) - See all my reviews

Unfortunately, when this video was shown on public television, members of the FBI and CIA were either asleep or chose to ignore the content. Steve Emerson presents organizations operating legally in American led by fanatics exhorting their members to kill Americans and Jews. Before the WTC tragedy, it was a wake up call which it seems was ignored by the very people who may have been able to protect us as well as almost everyone else. I leant it to several friends and it wasn't until the WTC incident that they took the tape seriously. One person didn't bother to look at it until the incident. Americans have been asleep and Steve Emerson has been fighting a lonely fight to wake us up. Will it be too late? We can only hope that it is not. I urge everyone with any interest in staying alive and understanding their world to buy this video.

4.0 out of 5 stars "Slay the disbelievers wherever you find them", February 9, 2003

By	The Sanity Inspector (USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

This is the notorious 1994 episode of Frontline about violent Islamic militants in America, bracketed by post-9/11 footage of that disaster and the U.S. attack in Afghanistan. Hidden cameras inside *American* mosques reveal Islamic militants raising funds for Hamas, baying for the blood of Jews. Even something so innocent as a summer camp for boys is turned into terror training by these apostles of jihad. (Catch the little arab boy hissing "Butcher the Jews!" during that segment.) Evidence is also offered suggesting that the first World Trade Center bombing was plotted and funded inside the U.S. At the end, the narrator assures us that Islam itself does not condone the violent jihad that American Muslims are being called to. This is baldly untrue, based on the Koran and the Hadiths and a quarter century of painful experience, but that issue needs its own video, so it doesn't much matter here.

It's hard to believe that PBS once actually aired this mortal sin against multi-cultism. Complaints against its creator, Steve Emerson, from well-funded American Muslim groups helped get him blacklisted from NPR's All Things Considered for a while. Less subtle disapproval from less savory Muslims nearly landed him in the FBI's witness protection program. In response to the (non-existent) oppression of Muslims in America, PBS this past year aired its infamous pro-Islam infomercial, in which American Muslims are portrayed as no different from anyone else save for headgear and cuisine. It ain't so, and this film shows why. As Paul Harvey says, it is _not_ one world.
