The term caliphate "dominion of a caliph ('successor,')," (from the Arabic خلافة or khilāfa, Turkish: Halife ) refers to the first system of government established in Islam, and represented the political unity of the Muslim Ummah (nation). In theory, it is a constitutional republic, meaning that the head of state (the Caliph) and other officials are dicate to the people according to Islamic law, which exercises power over their citizens. It was initially led by Muhammad's disciples as a continuation of the political system the prophet established, known as the 'rashidun caliphates'. It represented the political unity, not the theological unity of Muslims as theology was a personal matter. A "caliphate" is also a state which implements such a governmental system.
Sunni Islam dictates that the head of state, the caliph, should be selected by Shura – elected by Muslims or their representatives. Followers of Shia Islam believe the liph should be an imam descended in a line from the Ahl al-Bayt. After the Rashidun period until 1924, caliphates, sometimes two at a single time, real and illusory, were ruled by dynasties. The first dynasty was the Umayyad. This was followed by the Abbasid, the Fatimid, and finally the Ottoman Dynasty.
The caliphate was "the core political concept of Sunni Islam, by the consensus of the Muslim majority in the early centuries."
In nearly all cases, the jihadi terrorists have a patently self-evident ambition: to establish a world dominated by Muslims, Islam, and Islamic law, the Shari'a. Or, again to cite the Daily Telegraph, their "real project is the extension of the Islamic territory across the globe, and the establishment of a worldwide 'caliphate' founded on Shari'a law."Women beware. the men can beat you or even kill you without any proof should you talk back, wear the burka incorrectly, or if he suspects you of having an affair,
In 1971, Barry Soetoro, entered an Indonesian school, where as a Muslim, would
have been required to study Islam. He was taught to read and write
Arabic, to recite his prayer, to read and recite from the Quran and study the
laws of Islam. He became a“Mengagi”, a word that means the "highest
status". Moderate Muslim families would never send their child to Mengagi
classes. Ann Dunham and her husband Lolo Soetoro
Mangunharjo were in fact devout Muslims themselves and
they raised their son, Barry as such. You ask, What
does this have to do with the price of tea in China? Barry
Soetoro is Barack Hussein Obama. He's not Muslim my ass. If it walks like a duck...

Business Daily, (9-5-08) Now follow me
here. "Obama and Michelle belong to a non-profit community
activist group called Public Allies. It's a
radical protest group against the military that Obama hopes to
federally fund." Obama was a founding member of the board
of Public Allies in 1992. Michelle became executive director of the Chicago
chapter of Public Allies in 1993. (This same
year Pres. Clinton gave an award to this group.) Obama plans to
use the nonprofit group, which he features on his campaign Web
site, as the model for a national service corps. He
calls his Orwellian program, "Universal Voluntary Public
Service." (Orwellian-connotes
an attitude and a policy of control by propaganda, surveillance, misinformation,
denial of truth, and manipulation of the past.)
The 18-30 year
olds have to serve one-year "community leadership" positions with nonprofit or
government agencies. They have to attend weekly training workshops and three
retreat. They do get a monthly "allowance" of up to
$1,800, plus paid health and child care. They also get an "after
service education "award" of $4,725 that can be used to pay off
past student loans or fund future education. Radicalize American youth and use them to bring about
"social change" through threats, pressure, tension and confrontation.
I made fun of the kids with their iphones
sitting out on Wall Street. They had no idea what they wanted to get out of the
protest, except for this one, "unnamed source". He repeated almost exactly the
prior paragraph. BO, Hillary, Pelosi are all singing praises of the protesters.
While the nation is focused on them, Obama is grabbing MORE power.
"We Can't Wait", is the liberal mantra of the week. BO
is rolling along, in a Canadian made bus. BO is going to begin a series
of executive branch actions that will not require action from Congress
including a "major overhaul" of the government's refinance student loan
program". We can't wait for them (Republicans) to keep up. Now BO. That is not the way to reach your hand accross the
aisle!
Some genius in the Senate decided the way to boost the
housing market was too offer a six month visa to any foreigner that bought
$500,000 of houses. Or 1 house worth $500,000.
Either way, I can't count the different ways of stupid that is.
I
knew Geogre Soros is the puppeteer that makes Obama dance. I never expected it
be this bad. Soros worked for the Nazis/Hitler when he was
12. He created the infamous "Hedge Funds." He is credited with having
brought down the Bank of England in 1993. He was among the millionaires and
billionaires that signed a letter to repeal the "death tax". He then created a
"Charitable Trust". ( Which allowed him to pass he wealth to his heirs.) This
anti-capitalistic, capitalist is pure evil. He has Obama on speed dial. I have gone to Soros' website
and that tells the tale of 2 men. One who just likes to bring countries down for
fun and the other man hates Americans because he is a
MUSLIM!
Moammar Gadhafi was beaten to death by the
citizens he brutalized. This may not be a good thing for us. At least he had
control of his weapons,” and under new leadership the United States won’t have
any idea whose fingers will be on the triggers. Obama
is running around like he did something great. He got nothing. The rebels
came to us and said "We need your help". We should have said, "O.K. for 50% of
your oil for the next 25yrs." Now what have we got? Mustafa Abdul-Jalil, the
chairman of the National Transitional Council and de fact president, had already
declared that Libyan laws in future would have Sharia, the Islamic code,
as its "basic source". Can you say
caliphate.
Terrorists openly declare this goal. The Islamists who assassinated Anwar el-Sadat in 1981 decorated their holding cages with banners proclaiming the "caliphate or death." A biography of one of the most influential Islamist thinkers of recent times and an influence on Osama bin Laden, Abdullah Azzam declares that his life "revolved around a single goal, namely the establishment of Allah's Rule on earth" and restoring the caliphate.
Bin Laden himself spoke of ensuring that "the pious caliphate will start from Afghanistan." His chief deputy, Ayman al-Zawahiri, also dreamed of re-establishing the caliphate, for then, he wrote, "history would make a new turn, God willing, in the opposite direction against the empire of the United States and the world's Jewish government."
This is the Mulsim Brotherhood, any doubts that they are out to get Israel and US? Another Al-Qaeda leader, Fazlur Rehman Khalil, publishes a magazine that has declared "Due to the blessings of jihad, America's countdown has begun. It will declare defeat soon," to be followed by the creation of a caliphate. Caliphate- there's that damn word again.
