Stephen Colbert Ridicules Glenn Beck’s Theory Of A Coming Global Caliphate

video
» 75 comments

Just like his Comedy Central compadre did in the half hour before him, last night Stephen Colbert addressed the many media theories surrounding the Egyptian revolution. Though as is often the case with Colbert, his analysis was served with a heaping dollop of pastiche and ironic detachment. Case in point? His lauding of Glenn Beck (who espoused a connection between Code Pink, Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood) and “Papa Bear” Bill O’Reilly who gave Beck what for.



After playing a clip of Beck stating that a “a global caliphate is coming,” but then later clarifying that he did not “know when” or “if it will (even) happen,” Colbert put Beck’s fears in proper (and absurd) perspective, sayin, “And the conspiracies that we know are coming but might never happen are the most dangerous. Because if they might never happen, how will we know if they stopped it.”

    Colbert bashes Beck? Glad to see he’s getting some new material.

  • skyfet

    Glenn Beck is a moron, and the more he is exposed the more marginalize he becomes and the more he’d be in the planet looney. A lot of people from the right joined those who highlight his insanity daily, some of the folks are waking up.

    Colbert’s act is cold product.

    All he does it whine about conservative and libertarian commentators. So instead of turning into a satirical political commentator, he’s become Rachel Maddow.

    Colbert and Stewart are nothing more than left wing propagandists who use comedy as an excuse for never having to have good arguments or facts to back them up. This way they can just ridicule the Democrat’ political opponents without actually having an substance. For fuck sake, look at their audience. They’re a bunch of clapping, trained seals.

    Updated: Stickers declare ‘gay-free zone’ in east London

    by Jessica Geen
    14 February 2011, 4:30pm

    Stickers have been placed around London’s East End, declaring it a “gay-free zone”.

    The messages, posted on buildings and lampposts close to Shoreditch gay nightspots George & Dragon and the Joiners Inn, say “Arise and warn. Gay free zone. Verily Allah is severe in punishment.”

    They have also been posted on Whitechapel High Street and outside a school.

    Pictures of the stickers were sent in by a local resident, who said he tried to remove them.

    He told PinkNews.co.uk: “Tower Hamlets council won praise from Stonewall for its LGBT friendliness, but these stickers are a warning that Islamist extremists in Tower Hamlets have not gone away from London’s streets.

    “According to police figures, a homophobic crime is committed in Tower Hamlets at the rate of more than five a month.”

    The resident suggested that they may have been posted by members of Islam4UK, which has been accused of being a front for the banned Al Mahajaroun Group.

    Gay rights campaigner Peter Tatchell said: “There have been a series of homophobic threats and assaults by Asian youths on LGBT people in the East End over recent years.

    “I’ve been attacked by Muslim youths three times in and around Brick Lane. In all three attacks, the assailants shouted religious slogans. My LGBT Muslim friends who live in the area are nervous and anxious. They fear attack and dare not reveal their sexuality.”

    http://www.pinknews.co.uk/2011/02/14/stickers-declare-gay-free-zone-in-east-london/

    It’s the Leftists who are responsible for the immigration of the radical Islamists. It’s the Leftists who align themselves and defend radical Islamists, and now it’s the Leftists who are predictably the first to suffer from Islamic intolerence.

    I didn’t see this coming =/

    If what Beck says about there being an Islamist movement to restore the Caliphate is untrue, then at the least the battle against the movement has begun. That cannot be denied, except by the willfully ignorant.

    Here is a little something from a Muslim site. Think they don’t want to take over?? This is mild to some I have read. No Glenn isn’t all wrong. He might not be 100% but he doesn’t claim to be either. If he’s wrong then he’s wrong and you have lost nothing but if he’s right??? then what.

    Use the mosques across the country to deliver common messages to the public that they want radical change only possible by establishing the Islamic Khilafah system that will fulfill all your dreams like ending the ties and dependencies on America and other colonial countries to empowering your economic and political opportunities.

    Never fall into the trap of America and other western foreign powers or their surrogates. Remembers the call for democracy is simply giving America the spider web that slowly but surely will grab you in future like it did in Bangladesh, Indonesia or elsewhere in the Muslim world. Understand that America has no power to militarily intervene in your course. Neither have they had any political tools. Thus now they are crying for human rights and freedom to deceive you.

    ‘The Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم said ‘Prophethood will be amongst you whatever Allah wishes it to be, then He will lift it up if He wished to lift it up. Then there will be a Khilafah on the way of the Prophet, and it will be whatever Allah wishes it to be, then He will lift it up if Allah wished to lift it up. Then there will be an inheritance rule, and it will be whatever Allah wishes it to be, then He will lift it up if He wished to lift it up. Then there will be a coercive rule, and it will be whatever Allah wishes it to be, then He will lift it up if He wished to lift it up. Then there will be a Khilafah on the way of Prophethood.

    If the homophobic Muslims were anything but homophobic Muslims, Maddow would be on this story like flies on shit. See her coverage of gays in Uganda. Since it doesn’t fit the MSNBC narrative she won’t touch it. Lib journalists and their supporters are something else.

    So Colbert wants to get on the Beck band wagon too? Do these guys always just mimic each other and say the same things in a different way? Do any of them have a mind of their own, or is it always the group think crap.

  • misterbee

    Nice that all of you Leftists can laugh. I’ve never seen Beck on TV, and although I have heard him once or twice or radio, I’m hardly a fan. Here are several thoughts for those you mocking Beck.

    re: The Muslim Brotherhood-

    It was founded 80 years ago to implement sharia law across the globe, by any means necessary. The Brotherhood’s goals haven’t changed. A mission statement in a memorandum outlining the “general strategic goal for North America,” says the Muslim Brotherhood “must understand that their work in North America is a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and sabotaging its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and [Allah's] religion is made victorious over all other religions.”

    Regarding a statement from former Clinton CIA Director James Woolsey, please note, CLINTON CIA DIRECTOR:
    [He]… condemned American political correctness in the same stark terms as are now being thrown around by Europe’s socialist elite. Woolsey told the packed conference that America’s political correctness is blinding us to the fact that we are at war with those who advocate the overspreading of Sharia Law.  Woolsey said, “We have to understand that we are in a war here – certainly with the terrorists; certainly with Al Qaida; certainly with Hamas and Hezbollah”. “We’re also at war, with no choice of our own, with those who want to, over the long run, impose Shariah [Islamic law] upon us. “And it is one of the toughest fights we have ever had or will have,” he continued, “because Americans are used to religious liberty and not criticizing one another’s religions.”. Woolsey said a number of other things that, had he uttered them in multicultural Canada, would have put him at risk of trial by a Canadian Human Rights Tribunal.  Things like: “The establishing of a world-wide caliphate-theocratic dictatorship of the world; entirely imposed to democracy … terribly oppressive to women in every possible way, from sanctioning their being beaten by their husbands to girls being killed by their fathers if they walk on the street with a neighbor boy who is not a member of the family; death to homosexuals and apostates and on and on and on. And ultimately, that is the goal of Shariah. And it is the goal for the Muslim Brotherhood, which is doing its best to implement that over the long run.”.

    “The Brotherhood practices takia, or lying to infidels with grace and ease.” For you Leftist geniuses, if you aren’t Muslim, YOU ARE AN INFIDEL. THEY WILL LIE TO YOU. IT’S THEIR RELIGION TO LIE. You might wish to reference what Jesus of Nazareth had to say about liars:

    “You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has nothing to do with the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.” John 8:44 ESV

    I frankly, don’t care what you opinion of Beck or conservatives may be, but when you laugh at Islam, you’re sacrificing your future. The goal of Islam is now, and has always been, to convert you, subjugate you, or exterminate you. Colbert’s willing to joke about this issue speaks far more loudly about Colbert’s stupidity than it it does to Beck behavior.

    I believe most liberals do understand that some Muslims feel it is their religious duty to spread Islam all over the world. Some Christians feel that way to because the Bible tells them they are supposed to do that.

    After 200+ years Christianity hasn’t gained ground in America , they’ve lost ground. I think that’s why liberals don’t take the threat of Sharia law seriously. Muslims are an much smaller group and have little or no chance of imposing Sharia law even if they wanted to, and I don’t believe they all want to. I think Muslims in America are more likely to have children that are far less fundamental, and I think if we make an effort not to interfere and foster more resentment we’re better off.

    I wish that were true but unfortunately, there are areas like Dearborn, MI where there has been Muslim on Cristian violence and the courts have not stepped in. Sharia courts already exist in England and other European countries, and unless some laws are put into place they will start to appear here as well. I would watch Dearborn very closely. Doubt me? Watch this:

    After 200+ years Christianity hasn’t gained ground in America

    But they’ve gained shitloads of ground in places like Asia and Africa in the last 50 years, and the number of missionaries from these places is growing.

    Korea used to be mostly Confucianist with a little shamanist thrown into the mix (same for Japan and shintoism). Now Christian Koreans make up at least a third of the country, and they are VERY aggressive when it comes to trying to convert you to their beliefs.

    A week doesn’t go by that I’m not approached on the street or subway or wherever by one of these freaks demanding I become Christian. Most of the time they become quite angry and threatening when I politely decline their offers. Thankfully, I now live in a building with a security door, or I’d be bothered by them coming to my apartment 2-3 times a week. They liked using the “put their foot in the door” trick, so I couldn’t close the door on them. I think I broke at least two people’s feet that way…. and yet they STILL came back for more, to save my soul and convert me.

    Christians may be losing ground in the US, but they are gaining ground elsewhere, so this coming “Caliphate” MAY just be Christian in nature, not Muslim.

    The Beck Game goes on and on and on…All it demonstrates is the miserable educational and cultural standards in America. Don’t you Beck people get it that Beck has been thoroughly discredited and shown to be an utter knownothing by all normal, self or academically educated people. He will be gone in a year or two and 90% of his devoted followers will scratch their heads and wonder what happened. We had the same experience with Bush II. Many of you rightwingers thought he was God’s messenger to the unwashed, and look where he is now – in the toilet about to be flushed completely away. How do you like to constantly be on the wrong side of history. The left certainly has a lot to answer for, but Beck fans have to be the most gullible of all. The Caliphate and Sharia Law is coming is even sillier than Reds under the Bed from the good old bad communist times.

    You do know that since the wall came down the west has learned of many detailed plots of communist infiltration, do you not? The Caliphate IS coming, or at least that’s the plan of a good many enemies of the west. And just like the leftist chuckle heads of the cold war era ignoring the obvious threat, there will be modern day facilitators with their heads willfully stuck in the sands.

    You are speaking about the US of course. The rest of the world has a much more apparent islamic problem.

    The US would be the crown jewel of any islamic conquest, and would likely be the very last domino to fall, besides possibly china. So to blow off this theory based on a minimal islamic presence in the US is pretty naive of you.

  • BarneyFranken

    Since liberals dont watch Beck except for in heavily edited clips like this, of course they dont get what he’s saying.

    ~SIGH~ Let me explain it for you all…listen carefully..!

    Beck is not saying that radical islamists will SUCCEED in forming a caliphate. He is simply showing, in their own words, their desire for one. No one knows right now what the end result will be, but it is important to understand and take seriously the forces that are at work to achieve their goal.

    Is this really so hard to understand? If so then there’s just no hope trying to explain something to liberals unwilling to face the reality of the world we live in.

    I wish that were true but unfortunately, there are areas like Dearborn, MI where there has been Muslim on Cristian violence and the courts have not stepped in. Sharia courts already exist in England and other European countries, and unless some laws are put into place they will start to appear here as well. I would watch Dearborn very closely. Doubt me? Watch this:

    Honestly, the video doesn’t mean much to me. How would Christians react if they were having a fair of some type and members of another religion showed up to pass out pamphlets for their religion. Why were they even at the Arab fair filming. It looks like they were hoping for an incident.

    The US would be the crown jewel of any islamic conquest, and would likely be the very last domino to fall, besides possibly china. So to blow off this theory based on a minimal islamic presence in the US is pretty naive of you.

    Show me anywhere where Islam has taken over a traditionally non Muslim country , or even come close.

    Past results do not guarantee future performance my friend.

    But lets agree with your premise that muslims dont have the ability to take over the US.

    Does that mean they wouldnt mind killing a few million of us in the process of trying?

    I only hope people who think like you arent in charge of protecting your city.

    Thailand. The Muslims in the south have been making more and more trouble for the non-Muslims in the north. And they are only gaining more ground.

    Sure they might, but only as a weak group of extremist trying to gain notoriety. Certainly not as country with an identity that would be held accountable. Another group like Al Qeida that scatters when confronted. As soon as there is a serious confrontation here you can be sure Libs would be right alongside Cons opening gun cabinets across the country. There may be extremists in Islam willing to die, but not all Muslims in Islam are suicidal. Before a world caliphate could ever take root the world would be a glowing ember. No one would permit that from happening, either way. Why postulate an end result presuming they are all evil wanting conquest. Anyone can make the same argument substituting any group by finding a handful of incidents to justify a point of view they want accepted. It all depends on which perspective one has. Right now there’s an extremist version somewhere in the world who’s contemplating the Christian Kingdom takeover of the world. There may be a Maoist terrorized by the Democratic takeover demon. Those that find themselves compelled to spread fear need to consider that they may be overdoing just a bit.

    Day 7 since Henny Glenny was struck by an overwhelming feeling that Egypt is the beginning of a growing evil that is going to spread a global Muslim caliphate and with the help of the communists and progressives create a New World Order ending our way of life as we know it.</bl

    It is sad that there are so may people who are just plain stupid enough to listen to Glen Beck’s conspiracy theories. Doctors say alcoholism destroys brain cells. Glen Beck is proof of this.

    I think we’re in a situation where we have to be smart and walk a fine line of being prepared to defend ourselves and not tolerating attacks , and not letting anti Muslim irrational fear make things worse.

    Glenn Beck is the personal front man for stupidity on a national scale in The United States of America. He is and always was a complete idiot. His personal form of patriotism is false and you’d have to be a brainless, half educated, red necked idiot to believe anything this fool says. But that pretty well describes the tea party and the GOP. This closet homosexual never went to college and never knew anything about World History, American History, World Religions or the US Constitution. He is simply a mocking bird for the twisted views of the John Birch Society and people need to wake up to the fact that Glenn Beck is just another uneducated charlatan who does not possess a single ounce of journalistic integrity. He is definitely not a conservative. In short, he is just another opinion pusher which is why he blends in so well with the bigots on Fox News Network. This self important racist climbed in bed with Satan a very long time ago as lies, half truths, fear and hate are his only products that he has for sale and he is making big money off of impressionable fools who love being told what to think. Glenn Beck is simply a product of mormon cult theology that he mixes with cherry picked parts of Catholicism, New Age Religions and his personal core as a washed up, dry alcoholic. This makes Glenn Beck one very screwed up moron who sold his soul to the lowest common denominator of personal stupidity. And for the record…the religion of Islam has far more in common with Christianity than the mormon cult. Beck consistently demonstrates all the unstable behaviors of a dry alcoholic which include grandiosity, judgmentalism, intolerance, impulsivity, ADD, indecisiveness and blindness to truth. In short, Beck, Limbaugh, O Reilly, Hannity, Palin, O Donnell, Coulter and others like them who think they are conservative are all guilty of perverting truth, history, facts, religion and the US Constitution when they open their big mouths. They are all idiots who live in and speak to some alternate universe of stupid red necks that feed off of fear & hate mongering and love being fed a steady dose of extreme right wing lies. It is a breath of fresh air to finally see studies proving that Fox news viewers really are the most gullible and misinformed people on the planet.
