Saleem: American Generals Vow to Destroy Country

June 6, 2012 by Ed Brayton

The fake “ex-terrorist” Kamal Saleem, who lives right here in Michigan, seems to be upping even his own usual level of crazy lately. On Janet Parshall’s radio show, he claimed that many American military generals have vowed to destroy the United States and that Obama is going to legalize terrorism.

Saleem: From military, infrastructure to the church and synagogues, also to the banking and the education system, and also to pharmaceutical and medical, every level that there is that they were going to go ahead and penetrate and so far they were able to penetrate every level. Unfortunately, this government has not stopped them from advancing forward, but helped them advance forward to overcome many things. Now there are many generals who swore to destroy the United States of America are generals in the United States…

Saleem: This is what’s happening in America right now, the invasion of the United States of America is happening through the borders where in 2010 over 450,000 illegals crossed through Mexican borders and these guys are waiting for amnesty to be citizens as soon as our President changes the immigration law and are granted amnesty, legalizing terrorism will be just the first cut in the United States of America…

Saleem: If this [anti-Sharia law] bill does not pass and Americans do not support it then UN Resolution 16/18 will take place and that is the hate crime bill which is the American people, simply, the church cannot talk about their belief anymore, the church will have to go underground and they will have to submit their sermon and what so have you, and we are fighting on both area to disable the Islamists from taking over. That’s why the Catholic Church is fighting so hard because how they canonize their priests and what so have you, this will disable them from doing all this, and now our country will become Islamist by default because only Islam can fight back.

Parshall’s credulous response to all of those claims: “Wow.” Yes, wow indeed. That’s some serious fucking crazy.

legalizing terrorism

WTF does that even mean?
dingojack

“…that they were going to go ahead and penetrate and so far they were able to penetrate every level. Unfortunately, this government has not stopped them from advancing forward, but helped them advance forward to overcome many things.”

Saleem is clearly a employee of the Government, specifically the the ‘National Federal Dept. of Unnecessary Repetition and Redundancy Department’ (NFDUR&RD).

church will have to go underground

Hardcore Christians derive a pleasure almost resembling arousal from the fantasy of being persecuted for their delusion. That they’re able to do this while simultaneously dominating public policy takes quite a lot of cognitive dissonance, but I don’t think common sense is any impediment to Saleem.
Area Man

Is it really too much to ask conservatives to hold their con-men to a minimal standard of lucidity and coherence? It’s as if they took transcripts of the ravings of Mark Steyn and Joseph Farah, put them through a paper shredder, and then had a computer algorithm try to stitch them back together.
azzod56

Hey Ed, listen I think that Neo Conservative on YouTube is right about you. All of these silly blogs you write are about issues that do obviously exist, but you only cover the issue if it allows you to bash a world view or ideology that you disagree with. Like when you wrote about the Catholic Church’s Cardinal who paid priests that molested children. Obviously raping children is wrong, but I doubt we will ever hear you talk about or blog about the group NAMBLA, which stands for North American Man Boy Love Association. The group NAMBLA is a group of gay men who believe in having sex with little boys, like in Oct. of 1997 when two members of NAMBLA took a young boy and killed him and had sex with his dead body. You are not man enough to talk about the real issue Ed, you only use big problems to bash those who disagree with. As for the group NAMBLA, just Google it for yourself. You are upset that you have been exposed twice now by Neo Conservative so it does make sense as to why you would try and redeem yourself by writing a bogus blog like “Awww….Chris Staab doesn’t like me”.
cactusren

@azzod56: You’re missing a major point here: NAMBLA is generally not a well accepted group in American society, whereas the Catholic Church is not only accepted, but given tax breaks, and praised as an institution that teaches people how to be moral. It takes a lot of work to convince people who have been told from childhood that the church is good and moral that it is in fact not. On the other hand, almost everyone who isn’t in NAMBLA agrees that NAMBLA is not a good thing. So why bother talking about it? (Also, NAMBLA is a group of pedophiles, not gay men. There’s a differece, you know)
jjgdenisrobert

Saleem’s right about one, and only one thing: there is a group of American generals (and other brass) who have vowed to destroy America. They are the cabal of Right-Wing Christianists that have been working to transform the US Military into an “Army for Christ”, and to work towards making the US a theocracy; people like Lt Gen Boykin, for example. The thing is, they believe they are “saving” the US, while at the same time actively championing the destruction of its Constitution.

Other than that, Saleem is a moron.

Oh and @azzod56? go F yourself. With a baseball bat if you please.

Hey azzod56, listen imma let you finish but Markuze was the greatest troll ever. You can’t hold a candle. Have fun wasting your time, though! Should keep you away from sharp objects.
imrryr

I agree with azzod. Ed should clear every post with him before he writes it. That way azzod won’t be sad that Ed isn’t covering the things that azzod wants to read about.

Also, stop bashing the Catholic Church! I mean, what about the children who weren’t raped?!

Also, you never bash lib’ruls like Obama because my very shoddy and selective memory tells me so.

Area Man

Also Ed, why have you not blogged day and night about the scourge of tooth decay? Tooth decay destroys teeth every day; in fact, in 1997 someone lost a whole set of teeth to tooth decay. It seems that you only blog about things you regard as important and topical, as if it’s your blog or something.
ArtK

@azzod56

I’ve got a great solution for you: Start your own blog and srite about the things that are important to you. With a little luck, it’ll keep you busy enough that you won’t bother us with whiny tone-trolling.

@Area Man – Well said, sir. And don’t even get me started on the need for more blog posts warning us about the dangers of the gum disease known as gingivitis.

Saleem only left out the part where Obama issues Order 66 and has all the Jedi killed.

I love how “you’ve been exposed” now means “You haven’t blogged about what I think you should be blogging about!”

This Neoconservative Youtuber must be a crack investigator. He managed to uncover Ed’s dirty secret that he blogs about issues that he thinks are topical and actively tries to promote his wolrdview.

Exposing the pedophilic tendencies of the North American Man Boy Love Association seems kinda… pointless.

Actually, I have an idea for how the Catholic church can get atheists to stop talking about how priests like to rape children. They should just change their name to the Vatican Man Boy Love Association. Even PZ Myers would throw up his hands in defeat.
azzod56

Wow! It would appear that I have struck a nerve here. I can tell by how all of you avoided my actual point by making stupid irrelivant remarks. You all are obviously threatened by valid points (how sad). But I guess that’s your typical liberal. I’ll say it again, since it would appear to me that most if not all of you are coming right out of rehab and you can’t make one single argument that has anything to do with what my point was. My point was that Ed Brayton spends his time thrashing those whom he disagrees with, by using searious issues like “the rapings of children”, but he doesn’t cover the issue itself. Which is why he talks about the Catholic Church, but not NAMBLA. Neo Conservative has a valid point about Mr. Brayton which is why all of you are acting all afraid.

In fact I wont just expose NAMBLA, but I’ll expose the entire homosexual population for what they are. In fact 80% of pedophiles prefer children of the same sex. So in fact homosexuality is about a breath away from what pedophiles do. Also Neo Conservative on YouTube has exposed Mr. Brayton not once but twice, as well as others. We like Neo Conservative’s input.
azzod56

Poor Ed probably wishes he could escape criticism from brilliant people like the Neo Conservative on YouTube.

azzod56 “My point was that Ed Brayton spends his time thrashing those whom he disagrees with, by using searious issues like ‘the rapings of children’, but he doesn’t cover the issue itself.”

Like, with picture? You monster!

“Which is why he talks about the Catholic Church, but not NAMBLA.”

NAMBLA has no power. Roman Catholicism does. When NAMBLA wants to talk, nobody listens. When the RC does, they’ve got a wide range of outlets lined up for them, several of whom are guaranteed not to ask pointed questions. When a NAMBLA member engages in kid poking he goes to jail. When an RC padre does, he gets moved to another state. When NAMBLA covers up crimes, they go to jail. When RC upper management cover up crimes, they get an early retirement at the Vatican.
matty1

azzod56,

According to the wikipedia entry on NAMBLA “Media reports from 2006 have suggested that for practical purposes the group no longer exists and that it consists only of a web site maintained by a few enthusiasts”

Why does this one tiny group matter in discussing the serious issue of child abuse, and why are you so interested in them?
Area Man

I can tell by how all of you avoided my actual point by making stupid irrelivant remarks. You all are obviously threatened by valid points (how sad).

No, the problem is that you do not have any valid points. Indeed, you’re like a parody of a conservative who is too dumb to know how dumb he is. You are being mocked because that is what you deserve.

My point was that Ed Brayton spends his time thrashing those whom he disagrees with by using searious issues like “the rapings of children”, but he doesn’t cover the issue itself. Which is why he talks about the Catholic Church, but not NAMBLA.

Let me explain this to you carefully: The Catholic Church is an extremely powerful institution that spent decades covering-up the crimes caused by their priests because they were afraid it would make them look bad, which allowed those priests to victimize even more children. That is the scandal. Not the mere fact that pedophile priests existed. A healthy and morally decent institution would simply fire its members when they committed such crimes and turn them over to the police. The Church didn’t do this because it was more concerned with its power and prestige than with the well-being of the children who were in their charge. And this is an organization that claims absolute moral authority and has hundreds of millions of members.

It has fuck-all to do with NAMBLA. NAMBLA is a tiny and irrelevant group that has no power, no influence, and no legal privilege to speak of. There are no politicians defending NAMBLA, and its leaders aren’t capable of pushing legislation through Congress or denying birth control to millions of women. The pedophilia they wish to commit is extremely illegal and will remain that way. To waste time going on and on about them would be a stupid and pointless endeavor, about as sensible as writing blog posts about how axe murders are bad, or about how awful burglars are. A blog that wasted time on such banalities is a blog no one would read.

Seriously, a retarded ape could have figured this out. If no one took the time to explain to you the difference, it’s because they were overestimating your intelligence. Also, this thread has nothing at all to do with the Catholic Church or pedophilia, you just hijacked it to make a random and idiotic complaint about Ed, which makes you look even stupider.
Ed Brayton

Oh, this is fun. Staab has sent one of his clueless dolt buddies here to say stupid things (or did it himself). Fun stuff.
imrryr

As I typed this, Area Man and Modus beat me to it but I’ll post what I had written anyway:

I can tell by how all of you avoided my actual point by making stupid irrelivant remarks.

What cactusren and others said was hardly irrelevant. Ed knows about NAMBLA, but what’s the point of talking about them? Their tiny, laughable, punchline of an organization is nothing compared to the Catholic Church and the way it uses its vast resources to hide sexual abuse committed by its own priests. I’d imagine Catholic priests have raped far many more little girls and boys than all the members of NAMBLA ever could.

Poor Ed probably wishes he could escape criticism from brilliant people like the Neo Conservative on YouTube.

I’d imagine Ed is probably grateful that his most vocal “critics” tend to be so completely fucking ridiculous.
Ed Brayton

Oh yes, I want nothing more than to escape such scathing criticism as “he has a banana up his ass.” Brilliant!
matty1

back to the topic at hand, I find Mr Saleem’s writing a little hard to follow but he seems to be saying.

1.There is a plot by the US army and President Obama to import huge numbers of Mexican Muslims.

2.The law will then be changed to make it legal for these Mexican Muslims to kill people at random and at the same time to make churches illegal.

3.???

4. Sharia

Is that the gist of it?
ArtK

@ azzod56

In fact 80% of pedophiles prefer children of the same sex.

Ho, hum. As they say [CITATION NEEDED]

I believe the number quoted in a previous post was 3-5% of paedophiles are homosexual. And that was from actual research not a random big-scary number pulled out of your ass.

Re azzod56

Would fucktard azzod56 care to inform us to how many boys have been raped by members of NABLA as compared to the number of boys raped by the priests of the Raping Children Church?

Hey, goat fuckers like Mr. azzod56 don’t need no stinken evidence. They just pull stuff out of their fucken assholes.
azzod56

Oh how cute, this is the part where the lib-tards start making arguments out of thin air. The fact is I got the 80% from FRC.ORG not my “ass”. It is a well trusted site. There are a number of us who back up Neo conservative because he has got the answer for the conservatives on college campuses like Olivet College. We are behind him 100% of the way. Sorry nobody else buys your guy’s BS
matty1

By the way, is ‘Neo conservative’ now just one guy? That’s a pretty dramatic loss of membership for a movement that a few years ago controlled American foreign policy.

Also don’t use the plural when there is only one of you, it makes you sound reality challenged.
caseloweraz

Matty1 wrote (in #27): “Is that the gist of it?”

Yes, that’s pretty much it — except that, according to Saleem, the generals have already penetrated every part of American society, and the hordes of Mexicans are already pouring across the border.

So it’s a done deal, right?

Bronze Dog

Citing the FRC (or nearly any organization with the codeword “family” in its title) in an environment where people support equal rights strikes me as equivalent to citing whale.to on a science-based medical blog. You just know there’s going to be crazy stuff in there that ignores scientific methodology or grossly misinterprets the results.

Of course, the whole pedophilia thing strikes me as a deliberate distraction from the conservative attack on marriage. If two consenting adults can’t get married just because they’re of the same sex, what’s to stop the wingnuts from banning me from getting married to an informed, consenting adult woman?
Captain Mike

Yeah, isn’t the entire point of NAMBLA that they’re exposed? They’re not exactly trying to hide with a name like that.
