Gitmo Inmates for Switzerland!

A Swiss lawyer shyster with the support of Amnesty International has submitted the first asylum application for a prisoner at Guantanamo. The US has declared the prisoner free to leave. (Rundschau)

The asylum seeker is the Militärdeserteur Abdul Ra’ouf Al Qassim from Libya. AI refugee coordinator Denise Graf told the Rundschau: “Of course the U.S. is responsible to solve this problem. There have been six years and no solution has been found. We think Guantanamo should be closed, we support the asylum request. “ 

The asylum request to the Federal Office for Migration has been submitted. BfM media spokesman Jonas Montani to the “Rundschau:” There are no special conditions. It is an asylum request from abroad, it shall receive the same treatment as any other. “ 

About a general acceptance of prisoners from Guantanamo the Federal Government must decide, said Foreign Minister Micheline Calmy-Rey in early June in the question hour of the National Council.

Islamo-Fascism Week III: "Stop the Jihad on Campus"

By David Horowitz and Reut Cohen

While America is finally winning the war in Iraq, the global effort against the Islamic jihad goes on. In Afghanistan, the war with al-Qaeda is still raging. In Gaza, Hamas continues to launch genocidal attacks against Israeli towns. Meanwhile, on American college campuses a coalition of organizations connected to the jihad network demonizes America and Israel. This coalition carries on its agendas of hate with the unwitting collaboration of student governments and university administrations.

Philippines: MILF attack leaves 7 dead

 

The jihad proceeds along two tracks. One is violent, as you can see from this story. The other is non-violent. It attempts to compel non-Muslims to comply with Sharia provisions, piece by piece, bit by bit, until that compliance is full. That side of the jihad you can see at the other daily-updated page of this site, Dhimmi Watch, which is full of amazing stories today.

Avi Lewis, Commie Rat @ Al Jizz, interviews John Bolton

*  A year ago the great Ayaan Ali Hirsi ripped him a  brand new asshole on Canadian TV.  Now this insufferable moonbat has moved to Al Jizz of all places and sounds off just as clueless and stoopid as he did then. But Bolton doesn’t pull any punches.

France: how to force a mosque on unsuspecting citizens

Skirting the Law: A Mosque for Montreuil

* With thanx to the Brussels Journal

Both Le Salon Beige and Yves Daoudal have reports on the decision by the administrative appeals court of Versailles to allow a mosque to be built in Montreuil. The original court decision in 2007 banning the construction came about as a result of a suit brought by the MNR (National Republican Movement), the right-wing political party led by Bruno Mégret, who has since retired from politics. That decision has now been overturned:

'There is no humor in Islam…'

Picture of the week: Afghanistan

While the Taliban burn schools and murder aid-workers, there are signs that even soldiers of Allah may have a propensity for the lighter side of life, if only they were free to follow their whims instead of Islam. The balloon man above is is an outstanding example of the entrepreneurial spirit in abject surroundings…

Just another day in Kashmir

Kashmiri Muslims carry Islamic and black flags during a protest march towards Pampore, the home town of slain separatist leader Sheikh Abdul Aziz outside Srinagar on August 16, 2008. Tens of thousands of people shouting freedom slogans massed in revolt-hit Indian Kashmir to mourn 22 protesters killed in police firing during huge demonstrations in the mainly Muslim region. Mourners in scooters, cars, buses, jeeps and trucks streamed to Pampore town, just outside of main city Srinagar, to take part in the outpouring of grief and anger and shouting, “We want freedom” and “Kashmir is ours”.

* “Freedom” has a rather different meaning for those who are forced to live under the burka. The “Kashmir is ours” simply refers to the land stolen from the Hindus who are too afraid to return…

*  Islam, the gift that keeps on giving…

Tens of thousands of displaced Filipinos have returned to their homes, or what is left of them, after fierce fighting broke out between government soldiers and Muslim separatists in the south of the country earlier this week. The government says at least 10,000 houses were destroyed in North Cotabato province, which forced huge numbers of poor farmers to return to refugee camps.

Government soldiers attacked positions held by Moro Islamic Liberation Front rebels holed up in about 15 Christian villages in North Cotabato. Dozens of people were reportedly killed in the fighting and around 160,000 people fled their homes and farms to escape the bloodshed.
