Extremists, Part 1

Stardate 03-28-07

I've been reading a great book lately called Them: Adventures With Extremists. Them was written by Jon Ronson, the same guy who wrote the book The Men Who Stare at Goats which I wrote about in an earlier post. Ronson is hilarious and I really think that most of those who read my posts would get a kick out of his books. They are also incredibly interesting.

This book is also a full length piece of journalism where Ronson follows around and interviews those who the media has pinned as "Extremists." Ronson interviews a wide variety of extremists which include Islamic Terrorists, a Grand Wizard of the KKK, Militia men, and many others. Surprisingly, Ronson finds that though these extremists have very different views, they all share a common belief about the world.

Over the next couple of weeks I plan to showcase each of these extremists and then finish of with an examination of their common belief in The New World Order.

Omar Bakri Muhammed was once called "the most dangerous man in Britain." Bakri formed Al-Muhajiroun, an Islamist organization which was based in the United Kingdom. Bakri has claimed to be Osama Bin Laden's right hand man in Britain and has released statements that he claimed were prepared by Laden. Bakri has also said that he will not rest until the black flag of Islam is flying over Britain. He also claimed that he who practiced homosexuality, adultery, fornication, or bestiality would be stoned to death (or thrown from the highest mountain).

Here are some interesting moments from the book. At one part, Bakri has asked Ronson to drive him to a store called Cash and Carey so that he could purchase collection boxes that he would use to fund raise money for Hamas and Hizbullah, but all the store had left were large plastic novelty Coca-Cola bottles. After placing a half dozen of these bottles in his cart, Ronson commented to Bakri that he found it strange that he would collect donations for Hamas and Hizbullah in novelty Coke bottles. Bakri replied that he is not against the "imperialist baggage," just the corruption of "Western capitalism." Ronson then commented that nevertheless, "Coca-Cola is a powerful symbol of Western capitalism." After saying that he agreed, Ronson then asked Bakri, "So you are utilizing our symbols in your attempt to destroy them?" Bakri then replied, "Oh yes."

In a similar instance, Ronson drove Bakri to Office World so that Bakri could get some photocopies made of a pamphlet that was titled, "Crush the Pirate State of Israel." On the way, Bakri explained to Ronson that Office World is the best place to go for these services because, "if you find a photocopying service that's cheaper, Office World will give you a discount." "Capitalism," replied Ronson. "Capitalism," said Bakri, "Oh yes, I benefit from your capitalism to convey the message. I benefit from your freedom of speech."

It was around Bakri and his followers that Ronson first heard of the Bilderberg Group, The New World Order, who were the secret rulers of the world. Supposedly, this tiny group of men and a few women meet in a secret room and determine the course of world events.

Since this book was written, Omar Bakri has left Britain and is now living in Lebanon. He left of his own free will, but when he tried to return when the skirmish between Hizbullah and Israel broke out, he was denied entrance back into the country.

Stay tuned for my next post where we will examine what really happened at Ruby Ridge. We'll also unmask more secrets about Bildeberg. Hopefully they don't shut me down.
