Stoopid in the US of A

The First Price for Stoopid Goes to NYC Mayor Bloomberg:

NewsBusters on BLOOMBERG: “Home-grown, maybe a mentally deranged person or somebody with a political agenda that doesn’t like the health care bill or something. It could be anything.”

Bloomberg ought to be ashamed of himself. He should be making statements about protecting Americans of all creeds, and calling the Muslim community in America to account for its tolerance of jihadists. There has never been a backlash against innocent Muslims in the U.S. It is a fiction that we only hear about when a Muslim plots mass murder of Americans. And then we hear about it endlessly, as if Muslims were the victims rather than the perpetrators. JW

MSNBC’s Dylan Ratigan Worries About “Racism”,  Anti-Muslim Backlash After Times Square Bomb Attempt…

MSNBC’s Contessa Brewer ‘Frustrated’ That Times Square Bomber Is a Muslim

“I’m sorry the facts don’t fit my agenda”.


CONTESSA BREWER: I mean the thing is that- and I get frustrated and there was part of me that was hoping this was not going to be anybody with ties to any kind of Islamic country because there are a lot of people who want to use this terrorist intent to justify writing off people who believe in a certain way or come from certain countries or whose skin color is a certain way. I mean they use it as justification for really outdated bigotry.

UK: Voting Fraud Investigative Reporter Beaten Up by Muslim Thugs

Thanks to the RoP/ Undhimmi

Jerome Taylor was savagely beaten by ‘Asian’ thugs while on the trail of Bangladeshi voter fraud in East London

ELECTION SPECIAL – The Cultural Enrichment™ keeps on coming. UK Muslim Postal Vote fraud gets uglier – much uglier:

‘The first punch came, landing on my nose, sending blood down my face’
‘Independent’ reporter Jerome Taylor relives his bloody experience on the trail of voting fraud in east London

When I look back on it now what surprises me is how disarmingly polite my attackers were.

“What are you doing?” asked one of the two, seemingly inquisitive, Asian teenagers who approached me on a quiet cul-de-sac in Bow, east London, shortly after 1pm yesterday.

“There’s been a photographer around here, do you know her?” he added.

I didn’t, but I explained I was a journalist for The Independent looking to speak to a man at an address in the area, who was standing as a candidate in the local elections, about allegations of postal vote fraud. “Can we see your note pad,” the boy asked.

I declined and then the first punch came – landing straight on my nose, sending blood and tears streaming down my face. Then another. Then another.

I tried to protect myself but a fresh crop of attackers – I guess between four and six – joined in. As they knocked me to the ground one of them brought a traffic cone repeatedly down on the back of my head.

Muslims Should "Not Get Entangled in Beginning the Conflict with the Regimes Too Early, While They Are Still in a State of Weakness and Are Incapable of Concluding the Conflict"

Radical Belgian Muslims Turn to Jihadist Cleric Abu Muhammad Al-Maqdisi for Guidance

MEMRI

An individual who described himself as belonging to a group of Muslims agitating for the implementation of the shari’a in Belgium wrote to the senior salafi jihadi sheikh Abu Muhammad Al-Maqdisi with a request for guidance. Al-Maqdisi, who lives in Jordan, is best known as the mentor of Abu Mus’ab Al-Zarqawi; more recently he has provided guidance to the Islamic Emirate of the Caucasus,[1] salafi jihadis in Nigeria,[2] and probably to Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb as well.[3] In his reply, Al-Maqdisi told the Belgian Muslims to support the active jihads by providing funding, men, or however else they could, but counseled against carrying out attacks in Belgium as long as they are incapable of mounting a sustained conflict.

No “Jihad”, No “Terrorism”, No Problem!

by Baron Bodissey

There seems to be a new rule in the Department of Homeland Security and the national security community:

“No individual attack can be considered a terrorist act unless there is clear public evidence tying it to Al Qaeda.”

Sounds like Janet Incompetanto, doesn’t it? Homeland contingency operations, man-made disasters,  anyone?

This comes in handy for those federal agencies which forbid their employees to use sensitive words such as “jihad”. For example the National Counterterrorism Center:

Never use the terms “jihadist” or “mujahideen” in conversation to describe the terrorists. A mujahed, a holy warrior, is a positive characterization in the context of a just war. In Arabic, jihad means “striving in the path of God” and is used in many contexts beyond warfare. Calling our enemies jihadis and their movement a global jihad unintentionally legitimizes their actions.

The media are ready to jump on the bandwagon. According to the guidelinesissued by the Society of Professional Journalists for its members:

Avoid using terms such as “jihad” unless you are certain of their precise meaning and include the context when they are used in quotations. The basic meaning of “jihad” is to exert oneself for the good of Islam and to better oneself.

Woman fined for wearing burqa in Novara, Italy

ITALIAN police fined a Muslim woman for wearing a full Islamic veil in a street in the northern city of Novara, possibly the first such incident in Italy, city officials said.

The Australian/thanks to Mullah & Raul

“City police ticketed her last night and she will have to pay a €500 ($712) fine,” Mauro Franzinelli of the Novara municipal police told AFP.

“As far as I know this is a first in Italy,” he said adding that the woman could appeal.

In other news:

Novara, in Italy’s northeastern Piedmont region, is a stronghold of the anti-immigration Northern League, a key party in Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi’s conservative government.

The woman, a Tunisian national, was stopped by police officers outside a post office in the company of her husband. When her husband refused to have her identified by male officers they called in a patrol comprising a woman officer.

“City hall adopted a decree in late January banning the burqa in public places and their vicinity, which is based on a commentary by the interior ministry who received a copy of the draft,” said Mauro Franzinelli, who is also a local Northern League official.

Covering one’s face – with a veil or a motorcycle helmet – in public has been banned in Italy since 1975.

Been traveling a fair bit in the last couple of days, but still managed somehow to feed the blog . Thanks to our regular posters who sent me heaps of links. Here are some  updates:

Dudley Mosque Protest:

Gangs of Muslims are roaming the streets with knives.

We have had a lot of feedback from supporters in Dudley, and all are saying the same things, the police are letting this happen.  Muslims are being allowed to walk around unchallenged with weapons.  Knives, bricks, you name it.  What is going on in this Country?  There are hundreds of police there, but none seem to be doing anything about them.  I will take this back if there are reports that hundreds of Muslims have been arrested for carrying weapons tomorrow, but i wont be holding my breath.

EDL protestors arrested

Police have arrested two men from the English Defence League protest site. Officers removed the two males from the disused factory in Hall Street following the EDL roof top protest at around 3.30pm this afternoon.

The Socialist Worker’s (wankers) are jubilant:  “EDL driven out of Dudley“

English Defence League (EDL) members have been humiliated and driven out of Dudley today. Anti-fascist activists and the local Asian community combined to halt the EDL seizure of an empty warehouse on the proposed site of a new mosque.

UK: Plans for $27 million mega-mosque scrapped

This is where the EDL has been camped out on the roof, protesting the building of this huge mosque. The sheer size of this projected mosque was a supremacist declaration in itself; combine that with the martial uses to which so many mosques have been put in recent years, and there was every reason to protest. “Dudley mosque plan is scrapped,” by Heather Loat in the Express & Star, May 3 (thanks to JW)

Plans to build an £18million mosque in Dudley town centre have been scrapped, the Express & Star can reveal today.

The scheme to build a mosque with 65ft minaret on derelict land in Hall Street attracted huge protests, but has now been ditched by the Dudley Muslim Association.

Islam in Europe: Hoist on his own petard!

A Muslim association in Meaux filed a complaint against Lies Hebbadj, the husband of the Nantes woman fined for driving while wearing the full veil, who defended himself by saying that having a mistress was ‘not prohibited in France, nor in Islam‘.

“We were shocked that this man would say that in Islam you can have mistresses. That’s completely wrong. To listen to him, our religion is immoral,” said Rachida Benamed, who represents the Association of Muslims in Meaux and the region, according to a report in Le Parisien.

THE TIMES SQUARE CAR BOMB

YOU CAN FEED THE CROCODILE

…but sometimes he’ll still eat you first. While the initial US reports on the Times Square car bomb concentrated on the by now traditional denials that this was anything to do with terrorism and, even if it was, it was “amateurish”, the Telegraph in Britain was the first to note the parking space:
