New York: Another Day of Infamy

*  Apologies: as reader Mullah pointed out, the above picture is not the actual campaign,  but how blogger snapped shot imagines it could look. “Here, allow me to start things off with my own humble submission of what I think an Unindicted Terrorist’s marketing campaign might look like:” 

bullseye, and Islam Is Peace!!! bomb belt]

Adding insult to injury: Islam is not ‘Peace’-  it means SUBMISSION.  Islam is the most oppressive belief-system ever known to man. 

MTA officials said the ads are protected as free speech under the First Amendment. Mayor Bloomberg agreed. The content of the ads themselves is not offensive or suggestive of violence or terrorism, officials said….

* For many New Yorkers these ads are extremely offensive:  they are infuriating. Imagine for one moment if the Nazis had attacked the US and killed 3000 people, and then promoted Naziism by painting swastikas on subway cars and slogans claiming ‘morgen die ganze Welt’- who would put up with that?

 The ads are being paid for by the Islamic Circle of North America, which, as  noted here, is one of the organizations listed in the infamous 1991 Muslim Brotherhood memo as participating in a “grand Jihad” aimed at “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 God’s religion is made victorious over all other religions.”

Siraj Wahhaj, meanwhile, has warned that the United States will fall unless it “accepts the Islamic agenda.” He has lamented that “if only Muslims were clever politically, they could take over the United States and replace its constitutional government with a caliphate.” In the early 1990s he sponsored talks by Sheikh Omar Abdel Rahman in mosques in New York City and New Jersey; Rahman was later convicted for conspiring to blow up the World Trade Center in 1993, and Wahhaj was designated a “potential unindicted co-conspirator.”

So you’re telling me Churchill was wrong? Not!

Hugh Fitzgerald

 

Many at this site are familiar with Churchill’s comment about the menace of Islam to Western Christendom, and the fanaticism of Muslims (whom he called “Mohammedans” — a term that, given the centrality of Muhammad to Islam, as uswa hasana, al-insan al-kamil — is hardly unfair or even, as some suggest, misleading).

It is a comment that deserves to be printed out, and placed on refrigerators everywhere, but especially on refrigerators in Georgetown, and McLean, Virginia, and Silver Spring, Maryland — and of course at Camp David and at the White House and in those office refrigerators that Congressmen may keep.

So here one mo’ time is Churchill, with everyone’s favorite quote about Muslims:

How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property — either as a child, a wife, or a concubine — must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen: all know how to die. But the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytising faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science — the science against which it had vainly struggled — the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome.

Resistance in Dudley: ‘Do we really have to have this mosque?’

 

An £18million mosque which will dwarf everything around it has got the go-ahead – despite objections from 22,000 people.

Angry residents say allowing the 65ft tower and dome is simply pandering to the 7,000-strong Muslim com munity – which makes up just two per cent of the local population.

It had even been turned down by the local authority, but that refusal has now been over-ruled by a Government inspector.

Bunglawussi wingeing: “Islamophobe joins team Boris”

Congrats, Anthony Browne!

 Mr Browne’s appointment is certain to cause a degree of concern among his political opponents as he is known for his strong Right-wing stance on immigration.

He first came to prominence when he was denounced by then home secretary David Blunkett for “bordering on fascism” after a series of articles on immigration.

Mr Browne has also been criticised for “demonising” Muslims in an article headlined “the Muslims are coming – there’s no plot: Islam really does want to conquer the world” in The Spectator.

Former Mayor Red Ken Livingstone said: “Anthony Browne’s extensive Rightwing track record and his divisive attacks on immigration, are an indication that Boris Johnson’s administration is deeply at odds with the needs of a multicultural city like London.”

Britain wakes up to  Islamic terrorist infiltration at airports

It is feared that hundreds of foreigners are being allowed to work in high security parts of Britain’s airports without passing proper criminal record checks.

Despite warnings that terrorists have tried to place sleepers in jobs “airside” in terminals, no attempt has been made to check whether foreign workers have committed any offences abroad.

Indonesia fears 'backlash' if Bali bombers executed

Bombers’ executions ‘may enrage mobs‘

Outrage over Bali bombers’ prison party

THE executions of three death-row Bali bombers could trigger some mob violence, but a revenge terrorist attack seems unlikely, a terrorism expert said today.

Islamic militants Amrozi, his brother Mukhlas and Imam Samudra could be executed at any time over the 2002 Bali bombings, which killed 202 people including 88 Australians.

Indonesia’s Attorney General Hendarman Supandji has said authorities want the trio put before a firing squad “as soon as possible” and before the start of the Islamic fasting month of Ramadan in early September.

Chelyabinsk, Interfax – Eighty percent of Muslim literature published in Russia reflects ideas and principles of wahhabism, islamologist Roman Silantyev said. 

“It contains appeals not to observe laws of non-Muslim states (and Russia is a non-Muslim state), to liquidate peoples with other religious convictions,” Silantyev told journalists at the Chelyabinsk Interfax press center.

*   Nafigullah Ashirov asserts that some 10% muftis of Russia have more than one wife

*   Russia: Muslims Try To Drive Wedge Between Russia and US

According to him, the same can be referred to informational sources as “many of them are financed by wahabis and promote ideas of radical Islam.’

Silantyev believes the key problem is that certain Islamic leaders are identified with all Russian Muslims.

“We often see that a Muslim leader speaks out with radical statements or threats and serve them up as an opinion of the significant part of Muslims. While the reputation of the leader is often questioned,” the islamologist said.

He reminded, “according to the information of Russian general prosecutor’s office, people’s court twice condemned co-chairman of Russia’s Mufti Council Nafigullah Ashirov for robbery and disorderly conduct.”

Barack Obama is afraid.

When he or his wife give speeches in the United States, the staff makes sure there are plenty of white people visible, because he’s scared of creating the impression that only black people support him.

He prevents Muslim women wearing headscarves from sitting behind him, though, because he’s scared American voters will think he’s a Muslim.

He has refused requests for interviews from foreign media, because he’s afraid of being asked questions a teleprompter can’t answer.

An Obama campaign ban on green clothing during the candidate’s visits to Jordan and Israel today has left reporters traveling with Obama bemused.

In a memo to reporters, Obama advance staffer Peter Newell laid out rules on attire for Jordan and Israel. First among them: “Do not wear green.” An Obama aide explained to reporters that green is the color associated with the Palestinian terror group Hamas.

Jerusalem: Another Case of 'Dozer Jihad'

Pali bulldozer driver shot dead in Jerusalem copycat attack

* Pali Arab  kills 3 in Jerusalem bulldozer attack Reuters/previous attack

JERUSALEM (AFP) — A Palestinian bulldozer driver was shot dead in Jerusalem on Tuesday after injuring at least 16 people as he rammed cars in the second such attack this month, Israeli police and medics said.

Israeli police gather evidence next to a digger whose driver was shot dead after crashing into a bus and cars in central Jerusalem.

Jerusalem police chief Aharon Franco said “the terrorist was neutralised very quickly” and police were working to reopen the street near the landmark King David Hotel in central Jerusalem to traffic.

On July 2, a Palestinian killed three people and wounded 30 others when he rammed a bulldozer into a bus and cars on a busy Jerusalem street before being shot dead.

Franco said said Tuesday’s assailant attacked a bus, failing to overturn it, but smashing its windows.

“The bulldozer then rammed five cars and damaged them. A civilian tried to stop him when a border guard arrived and neutralised him.”

In the July 2 incident, the attacker managed to flip a bus, decapitating its driver in the process.

Canadian Islamic Congress plays race card, says PM Harper indifferent to "brown-skinned" Guantanamo prisoner Omar Khadr

Omar Khadr, (15) Killer Zombie, captured  after killing an American medic in Afghanistan

 

Never mind the fact that Khadr was captured in a jihadist compound in Afghanistan after killing a U.S. Army medic, according to survivors. Never mind the fact that Khadr is the youngest member of the Khadr clan with a long history of terrorism and jihad involvement.

“Harper indifferent to ‘brown-skinned’ Khadr: Islamic group,” from the Canadian Press, 

* Crafty, isn’t it?

Prime Minister Stephen Harper is indifferent to Omar Khadr’s plight because the Guantanamo Bay prisoner is “brown-skinned” and a Muslim, the leader of one of Canada’s largest Islamic groups said Monday.

Harper’s resistance to calls to repatriate the Canadian citizen shows he is pandering to Islamophobes, said Canadian Islamic Congress president Mohamed Elmasry.

“In this case, Mr. Harper is playing politics because of the “backdrop of Islamophobia in this country,” Elmasry said.

* Most of us couldn’t give a rats ass for his color, Elmasry. But we know the stench comes from Islam, and that means  people like  you… What a sickening bunch of whingers and whiners!

Not to be outdone by Elmasri, Australia’s resident Islamo-agit prop Yusuf Irfan chimes in to touch your bleeding heart. Fasten your seatbelt:

Western civilisation? What a good idea that would be

*  Yusuf knows everything about Western civilization, its all bad and Muhammedanism is the cure:

“Before India achieved independence, Western civilisation had produced the Holocaust and the mass murder of Japanese civilians via two atomic bombs”

Khadr was 16 at the time the footage was filmed in 2003. He was 15 when first captured in July 2002 during a US raid in which his father was killed. After being shot in the back, he was taken to the notorious Bagram Air Base, where he was often brought to interrogation on a stretcher and denied pain medication. Canadians didn’t have much sympathy for this child soldier.

* How about saving some of your crocodile tears for the murdered medic, Yusuf?

The situation is complicated by the fact that Khadr’s brother is currently before a Canadian court fighting US attempts to have him extradited to face terrorism charges. Stephen Harper’s conservative Government is showing as much disdain for Khadr as former PM John Howard showed towards Australian detainees David Hicks and Mamdouh Habib. Khadr’s lawyers hope release of the video may change all that.

Should a person accused of committing terrorism offences when a child be kept in such conditions? Some say that Khadr, whose father allegedly had strong links to al Qaeda and was a fundraiser for the terrorist network, is still dangerous. These people might like to view the video of Khadr’s interrogation and watch this boy pleading for Canadian interrogators to help him.

* One question, Yusuf: why is this murderous bastard still alive?

* There is more if you can bear it. Sadly, the misguided fools from the New Zealand Herald print Irfans noxious bile.

Whatever it takes: they’re playing us like a fiddle

*  Bin Laden driver ‘deprived of sleep for 50 days’

*  “Tortured”  by an infidel female he was not able to rape, he claims:
“She came very close with her whole body towards me,”

 

America's Muslim Candidate doesn't like foreign media

* Because they don’t ask ‘the right questions’ and ‘they don’t matter anyhow, because they don’t vote…’

Snubbed by Obama

Snubbed by Obama

Barack Obama is on his way to Europe, where an adoring public awaits. But I wonder if the reception would be quite so enthusiastic if Obama’s fans across the Atlantic knew a dirty little secret of his remarkable presidential campaign: Although Obama portrays himself as the best candidate to engage the rest of the world and restore America’s image abroad, and many Americans support him for that reason, so far he has almost completely refused to answer questions from foreign journalists. When the press plane leaves tonight for his trip, there will be, as far as I know, no foreign media aboard. The Obama campaign has refused multiple requests from international reporters to travel with the candidate.

As a German correspondent in Washington, I am accustomed to the fact that American politicians spare little of their limited time for reporters from abroad. This is understandable: Our readers, viewers and listeners cannot vote in U.S. elections. Even so, Obama’s opponents have managed to make at least a small amount of time for international journalists. John McCain has given many interviews. Hillary Clinton gave a few. President Bush regularly holds round-table interviews with media from the countries to which he travels. Only Obama dismisses us so consistently.

Andrea on Obama Trip: ‘What Some Would Call Fake Interviews’

Andrea Mitchell might be a doyenne of the liberal media, but she has her reporter’s pride and principles, both of which have been trampled by the way the Obama campaign has managed the media during the candidate’s current trip to Afghanistan and Iraq.  Mitchell let loose on this evening’s Hardball, speaking of “fake interviews” and indicating we don’t know the truth of the trip because we don’t know what was edited out of the video that’s been released.

Before Mitchell made her displeasure known, Roger Simon of Politico, Chris Matthews’s other guest during the segment, depicted the images coming out of the war zone as all Obama could have dreamed of.

* Saudi maid verdict ‘outrageous’

A previous case:A judge in Riyadh awarded $670 damages to the maid, Nour Miyati, but dropped all charges against her employers.

 

“The 22-year old maid … was forced into a car, taken to an undisclosed location and later dropped off at the same place from where she was picked up,” said a spokesman for the embassy.

“The housemaid left her employer’s home to throw garbage into the municipality’s garbage bin when the men overpowered her and abducted her,” he said, adding that the men invited their friends to rape the woman until she bled and became unconscious.

“The men repeatedly raped her and left her in a battered and bleeding state,” he said.

On June 27, Arab News reported the story of another maid who was also gang-raped and is now being cared for at a maids’ shelter run by her embassy.
