chinu. You said...."The killing of the judge's family was committed by the Aryan group. No different than Al Qaeda. Both aim to perpetuate their ways on society."..... Oh, Has it been verified now who the killer is? last I heard the killers have not yet been identified. Maybe you could post this news? You and others have chosen to bring up isolated incidents it would appear in defence of radical islam so in that case here is another isolated incident in the USA that that may interest you. COPTIC KILLINGS Sect leader calls for FBI probe Says slaughter of Jersey family likely religiously motivated March 2, 2005 A leader of the Coptic Christian sect has called on the FBI Civil Rights Unit to open an investigation to determine whether or not the grisly killing of a New Jersey family was religiously motivated. Support pin for slain Coptic family quotes Matthew 10:28 (photo © Carrie Devorah) In a statement, Monir A. Dawoud, M.D., acting president of the American Coptic Association, quoted from the FBI's website, which says a "significant number of [civil rights] cases are initiated based on media reports" or "complaints from community interest groups." As WorldNetDaily reported, Hossam Armanious, a Coptic Christian from Jersey City, N.J., was found in his home Jan. 14 with his wife and two daughters, bound and gagged with their throats slashed. Armanious, a native of Egpyt, was known to frequent Internet chat services to advocate for Christianity, often debating with Muslims. Two months before his murder, according to authorities, Armanious received a death threat from a Muslim PalTalk user: "You'd better stop this bull ... or we are going to track you down like a chicken and kill you." Armanious also was a leader of an online ministry to the Muslim-American community. Dawoud, a New Jersey surgeon, said in a statement: "Just the thought that this family might have been killed for professing Christian beliefs should be enough to justify a bias investigation." The Hudson County Prosecutor's office leads four other local and federal law-enforcement agencies in the investigation of the massacre. Thus far, neither a federal nor state civil rights or bias unit has been called in to make a determination as to whether this was a hate crime, Dawoud points out. "Just yesterday in Fayoum, Egypt, it was reported that two Christian women were kidnapped and forced to convert to Islam. Unfortunately these tactics are not new to us. I pray that we have not arrived at the point where Americans have to fear for their lives because of what they believe, and how they worship God," said Dawoud. U.S. Copts Association President Michael Meunier acknowledged in a news conference last month that the manner of the slayings was consistent with passages in the Quran that describe how to kill an infidel. worldnetdaily.com

chinu. The killing of the judge's family was committed by the Aryan group. This sorta fits in with your statement a bit. Byrd compares Republicans to Hitler Former Klansman decries attempts to approve judicial nominees March 2, 2005 WASHINGTON – In denouncing Republican efforts to get President Bush's judicial nominees to the floor of the Senate for an up-or-down vote, Sen. Robert Byrd, D-W.Va., compared Republican tactics to Adolph Hitler's use of power in Nazi Germany. Byrd, a former member of the Ku Klux Klan, said that if the GOP were to succeed in preventing Democratic filibusters of Bush's nominees, the move would "incinerate" the rights of all senators. As many as 10 of Bush's nominees face the threat of filibuster, including William Myers, former lead counsel at the Interior Department who is up for a seat on the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. Myers has majority support in the Senate, but lacks the 60 votes needed to shatter a filibuster. To get past that barrier, Republicans would like to use their majority power to change the rules. Byrd compared the idea to Hitler's abuse of power. "Hitler never abandoned the cloak of legality. He recognized the enormous psychological value of having the law on his side," he said. worldnetdaily.com
