Crusader attacks, Hu, Motor Mowers, Leaf Blowers

aljazeera
Praise be to Allah, Lord of the world, prayer and peace be upon our prophet Muhammad, his kin and all his companions.
.. I will remind Muslims to fear God and to save their brothers in the African Horn from the famine that hit them.
What does the destruction of the infrastructure in Iraq mean and the tragedy that befell them mean? And the use of depleted uranium, besieging Iraq for years, causing the death of more than one million children which amazed all who had visited Iraq, including the Westerners themselves? It is a malicious crusade against Muslims.
What does the reoccupation of Iraq mean by using lies and deception along with murder, destruction, detention, torture and creation of huge military bases to dominate the whole region? It is a Zionist crusade against Muslims.
.. Despite the numerous Crusader attacks against our Muslim nation in military, economic, cultural and moral aspects, but the gravest of them all is the attack against our religion, our prophet and the our Sharia tenets. The epicentre of these wars is Baghdad, the seat of the khalifate rule. They keep reiterating that success in Baghdad will be success for the US, failure in Iraq the failure of the US.
Their defeat in Iraq will mean defeat in all their wars and a beginning to the receding of their Zionist-Crusader tide against us. Your mujahidin sons and brothers in Iraq have taught the US a hard lesson while in the fourth year of the Crusaders' invasion, they are steadfast and patient and keep killing and wounding enemy soldiers every day.
It is a duty for the Umma with all its categories, men, women and youths, to give away themselves, their money, experiences and all types of material support, enough to establish jihad in the fields of jihad particularly in Iraq, Palestine, Afghanistan, Sudan, Kashmir and Chechnya. Jihad today is an imperative for every Muslim. The Umma will commit sin if it did not provide adequate material support for jihad.
O fellow Muslims, pay no heed for the number of the enemy and their arsenal of arms because victory is a gift of God while the enemy, praise be to God, is experiencing a critical situation.


Hu
"Stop the torture and killings!" .. "Falun Dafa is good," ..
For at least a minute, the protests punctuated both Mr. Hu's remarks ..Eventually, security officials made their way to the top of the camera stand and led the heckler away
[almost as if a conspiracy to embarrass Hu..]
______________________________________________________________
Toxic Motor Mowers
..usa 2006 lawn mower engines contribute 93 times more smog-forming emissions (SME) than 2006 cars..California..lawn mowers > 2% of the SME from all engines.
..sales.. six million/yr
..A pending regulation in Ca..for small engines, cutting 22 tons of SME ..daily, = 800,000 cars .. catalytic converter .. Briggs & Stratton ..opposes. ..Snr.Chris S. Bond, R Miss..
[and leaf blowers]
..
What would an extra-terrestrial conclude from a leaf blower?

  • A species with a techno-civilization with access to precision steel and a range of precision engineering.
  • This technology applied to a device to blow leaves..
    Implies an extreme neurotic hatred of nature - biophobia, hatred of ones own biological origins.
  • Use of biofuels from geologic deposits, implies an indifference to air quality, and a civilization founded on frivolous poison spreading, a civilization that must crash when the geologic deposits run out,
    so a species indifferent to its own lungs, and to the fate of its descendants.
  • The noise emitted is similar to species distress screams , so the users are indulging in a harmful neurotic attention getting exercise.
  • From the design tolerances , the machines are evidently made in factories with slave labour, who else but slaves would tolerate assembly line squalor?
  • A slave society: who else but slaves, or insane beings, would use toxic air & noise polluters for a merely frivolous task?
..According to the Lung Association, a leaf blower causes as much smog as 17 cars.
..unintended consequence of disturbing and suspending smaller particulate matter such as dust, fecal matter, pesticides, fungi, chemicals, fertilizers, spores, and street dirt that consists of lead and organic and elemental carbon, according to the California EPA.
