Since a little after 1PM yesterday until just now, the Jihad Watch site has been locked up by some kind of malfunction, making it impossible for me to post anything and impossible for anyone to comment. I apologize for the inconvenience, but things seem to be up and running now. I don't know the cause of these problems, but since this latest one occurred after a fix that supposedly took care of the source of the difficulty, I'll be monitoring things closely.
Great job on C-Span Robert!
That interview should be a must see for all infidels.
So the cyber wars are heating up.
Just wait until the real one does !
Very good on CSPAN.
LINK to the program. Can watch on your computer, also transcript is there

My only quibble is you should have explained what a dhimmi is by using the word dhimmi. You only used the word dhimmitude which is confusing to a newcomer
Robert,
First, good job last night on that interview. Keep up the good work.
Second, at least I got a learning experence yesterday in what could happen if there is a cyberterrorism attack.
Dear Robert,
Bravo, bravo! Yours is just the voice we need to hear. You did such a fantastic job on C-Span. It has prompted me to write to you and encourage you to do more with the help of our Blessed Lord Jesus Christ.
You are articulate, intelligent and have the right answers to inform, enlighten and inspire all the misconceptions that Islam is presenting to the world. From your unique perspective, you can change hearts and minds. Please continue to speak out more in media venues and to reach the complacency that is so prevalent today regarding what Islam really believes and also to clear up all the misunderstandings about Catholicism.
I am a returning/renewed, gratiful cradle Catholic, realizing once and for all time, what a precious gem we have in our Catholic faith.
More faith and courage to you as you go about informing, inspiring and representing a true servant of God by your Christian example.
Your sister in Christ Jesus,
Ann

So it wasn't my computer? Smashing it to smithereens was a rush to judgment? Now you tell me.
After three days of being unable to access JW through, AOL, it's working now. I contacted "live help" on AOL last night and explained that I could access JW with Internet Explorer through Comcast and MSN, but when I tried to access through AOL, I got an "Action Canceled" message. The tech assistance tried to tell me the site was down for maintenance (he could not access it either). Maybe things are back to normal.
Phew!, you're back. With 22nd August looming I thought you'd gone to ground or even more unlikely the jihadists had thrown in the towel.

I thought the hidden Imam popped out of his gopher hole and dragged Robert into it.

BRILLIANT interview Robert! I've emailed the link to everyone I know. Hopefully, we will spread it all over and people will get their eyes open.
Yes! Absolutely brlliant interview Robert!! Bravo, (standing ovation)...
I add my congratulations, Mr. Spencer. You did an excellent job!!! I have reflected on the interview since then. Having been a C-Span watcher, off and on, for years I have gotten somewhat of a feel for the outlet. Brian Lamb is very interested in the subjects of history, telecommunications and education. He appears to be a secular man; religion is a weak subject for him as he interviews people. I would guess that some, if not many, of the challenging questions that he asked were fed/suggested to him by others. From some personal knowledge, I know that C-Span is not interested in conferences or speakers covering non-Muslims in Islamic countries, although the station seems overly generous in converage of Muslim speakers and conferences. Two more observations: Mr.Lamb tried his best to make a rather sinister connection between Mr. Spencer and the film about Islam. Periodically, at the bottom of the screen, the viewer was offered to go to a sight showing the Dr.Ahmed interview of last week. It was as if C-Span was going out of it way to say, "Here's the other side. Quickly look at it so you will know that we are not really promoting Mr. Spencer's school of thought." Still, I wonder how much hate mail and threats C-Span has received this morning, despite their overkill on the "fairness" doctrine. Hopefully, Mr. Lamb can experience in small way what Mr. Spencer experiences so much and why he is forced to identify his residence only as "secure, undisclosed location."
Sorry for the paranoia. A datapoint though-during the outage, my computer could communicate with friends and family but not with another site who shares JW/DW viewpoints. Hmmm.
Robert
I do hope you can get some professional Internet security people to monitor all DOS and such activity don't mean to gripe, but this is becoming all too common.
On the appearance yesterday, I appreciated it thoroughly. However, I'm glad that you got the entire hour alone, and got to talk about the disturbing facts about Islam and Mohammed, rather than getting into a peeing contest with CAIR - that is unworthy of your time or attention. We need you to bring forth these facts about Islam - let Andy Whitehead and Anti-CAIR focus on the job of going after CAIR, and even for that matter, WatchJihadWatch.
Its not only happening here, I've run into problems at several pages opposed to islam in the last few days.
There are a whole lotta Trojans emanating from JW/DW lately. I made the mistake of opening that Green Helmet video, and lost a PC to what I believe to be a Trojan that intercepts the video controller in such a way that the box cannot even be reimaged with a new OS in Safe Mode.
These people couldn't invent the chair, but they're doing ok at malware. Probably some Pakis.
Alarmed; Probably a consultant.
I was able to access the site to read the articles but not post. What concerned me about the problem was that no matter what computer I used to access the JW/DW sites (checking to see if problem was on my end), it appeared as though I was automatically signed in .
I got the following error message:
"An error occurred: Bad ObjectDriver config: Connection error: Host '10.4.237.70' is blocked because of many connection errors. Unblock with 'mysqladmin flush-hosts' "

I had exactly the same experience. It said:
Thanks for signing in, . Now you can comment.
(see, there is no user name--it is blank)
I thought the problem was at my end, and had no idea how to fix it. A great relief that you were able to get everything up and running again.
Some of these problems can be attributed to Denial of Service (DOS) attacks by the enemy

Interview well done Robert.
I thoroughly enjoyed 'Islam: What the West Needs to Know.' The clips of Walid Shoebat brought much of it back to mind. The scholarly approach of Robert, Trefkovic and Bat Ye'or was nicely complimented by the passion of Shoebat. In his own way, Walid stole the show.
Was wondering if anyone knows how to access 'Obsession: Islam's War with the West'? Can't find it playing anywhere.
