Moderate, peace-loving Mahmoud Abbas mocks the idea of a Jewish state

More on this story, from Palestinian Media Watch, May 4 (thanks to Jihad Watch).

He said:

“The ‘Jewish state.’ What is a ‘Jewish state?’ We call it, the ‘State of Israel’. You can call yourselves whatever you want. But I will not accept it. And I say this on a live broadcast… It’s not my job to define it, to provide a definition for the state and what it contains. You can call yourselves the Zionist Republic, the Hebrew, the National, the Socialist [Republic] call it whatever you like. I don’t care.” [PA TV, Apr. 27, 2009]

Obama 'whitewashing' reality of Islamic threat

* Of course he is. He is one of them. Not one of US!

Israel and Palestine flagsThe head of a pro-Israel organization says he’s worried that the Barack Obama administration could be the most hostile ever to the state of Israel.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to visit the White House later this month for the first time since he took office March 31. Netanyahu has not endorsed the creation of a Palestinian state, though that has been a cornerstone of Western policy in the region. As a result, there have been predictions of clashes between the governments of Obama and Netanyahu.
 
Morton Klein, president of the Zionist Organization of America, admits he is worried about how Obama will deal with the Jewish state.
 
“This could turn out to be the most hostile administration to Israel we have ever seen,” Klein laments. “Remember, this isn’t good for America. A weak Israel is not able fight Islamic terrorism as a strong Israel can — and Israel is America’s only reliable ally in the Middle East.”
 
Morton Klein (Zionist Org. of Am.)Klein says Obama does not even want to acknowledge what his own country is facing.
 
“He said we should not use the word ‘terrorist’ anymore — [instead] we should use the word ‘man-caused disaster,'” he explains. “And we shouldn’t use the term ‘war on terrorism’ anymore — [instead] we should use the term ‘overseas contingency operations.’
 
“So he’s trying to whitewash the reality and the fact that we are in the midst in a war against Islamist terrorism,” Klein concludes.
 
Netanyahu is expected to unveil his official foreign policy before heading to Washington in mid-May.

Taliban terrorizes 2,000 villagers as human shields

H/T eye on the world:

Is living under the Sharia great or what?

taliban1(Times Online) TALIBAN militants who have seized swathes of North West Frontier Province in Pakistanhave inflicted a reign of terror on villagers, landowners and the police, using kidnapping, looting, pillaging and murder to impose their will.

* Damn. Where is Sherifa Zuhur when you need her? Don’t these ignorant Taliban folks know that kidnapping is totally un-Islamic?

Yesterday, as Pakistani forces stepped up their campaign to retake territory in the districts of Buner, Dir and Swat, it emerged that in one Taliban-controlled village, Pir Baba in Buner, the militants were holding 2,000 people as human shields in case the army attacked.

Waki Paki Nuki News: "US 'concerned Taliban will snatch Pakistan's nuclear weapons'

US worried that jihadists will seize Pakistani nukes, and Pakistani officials won’t tell where they are

The headline the Telegraph gives to this article is “US ‘concerned Taliban will snatch Pakistan’s nuclear weapons.'” As the great philosopher once said to me, “Well, duh.”

Note that Pakistani authorities are not cooperating.

Iranian Army General Commander Ataollah Salehi: It Will Take Us 11 Days "To Wipe Israel Out of Existence"

ahmadinejad-joker-11MEMRI

Following are excerpts of statements by Iranian military commanders, from a TV report which aired on LBC TV on May 3, 2009.

To view this clip on MEMRI TV, visit http://www.memritv.org/clip/en/2099.htm. 

“I Do Not Think We Will Need More Than 11 Days to Wipe Israel Out Of Existence”

Voiceover: “Nothing can prevent Iranian missiles from targeting the heart of Israel, if Iran is subjected to a military strike by Israel. This was the response of the Iranian military commanders to the Israeli statements about a possible military strike against Iran, because of its insistence on obtaining nuclear energy. Yet an [Israeli] attack seems improbable to the Iranians, because Tel Aviv does not have the ability to go through a war with Tehran.”

*   “According to the shari’a and the law, it is forbidden to obtain a nuclear bomb.” Other Islamic authorities differ.  (thanks to Robert)

  • And make ready against them all you can of power, including steeds of war (tanks, planes, missiles, artillery, etc.) to threaten the enemy of Allah and your enemy, and others besides whom, you may not know but whom Allah does know. And whatever you shall spend in the Cause of Allah shall be repaid unto you, and you shall not be treated unjustly. (8:60)

Malta tells Muzz to get stuffed, Muzz threatens "backlash"

  • Cursing the infidels and praying for their demise: Muslim prayer demo in Malta

20090502-085632-loc_12About 50 Muslim men took their prayer rugs to the Sliema front yesterday after the planning authority sealed off their place of worship. The Muslims said the Malta Environment and Planning Authority had locked them out of their flat in Sliema where they used to pray, so they decided to take their cause outside.

“We are not here to protest or threaten violence but to express our fundamental human right to gather in prayer,” Bader Zina, one of the leaders, said. According to Mepa, a number of complaints had been received by neighbours and the flat did not have a licence to be used as a place of worship.

The Muslims, many of whom Maltese, were dressed in traditional clothing. They had a permit and police protection and said this might become a regular appointment until their flat was reopened.

This behaviour did not go down well with a group of Maltese onlookers who warned that if this happened again “there will be trouble”.

“Malta is a Catholic country. They have no right to come here and pray in front of us. I don’t care what they do in the privacy of their own home but not here,” one Maltese woman said.

“We’ve had enough. If you were to do the same in their country they would stone you. I can’t understand how they could have been given a permit for this, including police presence and all!” her husband added, visibly disturbed by what he saw.

Comment of the day

Found on Tim Blair’s blog:

903780941Richard Pratt, arrived in Australia aged 4, as a poor Jewish immigrant. He died as one of the country’s wealthiest men, a philanthropist and an employer of thousands of people.

There was another group, which immigrated to Australia in the 1980s.

Their story was a bit different. 

Using data from the 2001 Census, this paper finds that Lebanese Muslim households are large and much more likely to be poor than are all households, or than Lebanese Christian households. It also finds that Lebanese Muslim men have low levels of education, relatively high levels of unemployment, and a very high tendency not to be in paid work.

And then there were the gang-rapists, criminals and murderers.

Quite a contrast in immigration stories… Quite a contrast indeed.

Iran rushes a woman to the gallows

In case you hadn’t noticed, the ruling regime in Iran is a throwback to barbarism. Latest case in point:Delara Darabi.

* Michelle Malkin seems to be more sympathetic:

US journalist Roxana Saberi turns 32 today in an Iranian prison. After an hour-long trial, she was sentenced to eight years behind bars for “espionage.” She was initially told she was arrested for buying bootleg wine, and then because she was working as a journalist without a license. She’s now on day five of a hunger strike. Today, one of her defense lawyers was denied access to her.
