During Wednesday’s meeting, Junior farm minister Henk Bleker was quoted as saying the PVV’s call for a ban on Muslim headscarves make him feel sick and that party leader Geert Wilders’ suggestion that anti-social families be placed in special ‘scum villages’ was against all forms of decency.  (Source)Henk Bleker doesn’t think of himself of being scum….
Cartoons that vilify Wilders are cool, though:
The cartoon likens Wilders’ plan for ‘scum villages’ to Nazi death camps.
Muslim associations say that the presence of those impure animals violates their religious freedom and the rights of Muslims to live according to the Koran.
This isn’t just about the virtues of a tax that will in fact make us poorer without changing the weather by a single storm.
Leave aside arguments about whether the world has even warmed this past decade (it hasn’t) or whether our useless sacrifice will at least persuade the big emitters to do the same (they won’t).
Let’s at least agree on the deceit.
At least four times in the fortnight before the last election, a desperate Gillard and her deputy, Treasurer Wayne Swan, swore they would not impose a carbon tax – a tax on carbon dioxide emissions that will drive up the cost of power.
Once again we see an Islamic supremacist blame the victims of Islamic jihad aggression for that aggression itself. Muslims bombed a Coptic church in Alexandria last month, murdering 21 people, and last Tuesday, Muslims murdered a priest — and Zawahiri has the Islamic chutzpah to say, “The first among those who are responsible for setting the situation ablaze is the leadership of the Coptic Orthodox Church under the leadership of the one called Pope Shenouda III.” (Christians force Muslims to kill them …)
Christians incite more interfaith tension by not thanking the Egyptian Muslim military officers for the gunfire, and compensating them for the cost of the bullets. “Egyptian Armed Forces Fire At Christian Monasteries, 19 Injured,” by Mary Abdelmassih forAINA, February 24 (thanks to JW):
(AINA) — For the second time in as many days, Egyptian armed force stormed the 5th century old St. Bishoy monastery in Wadi el-Natroun, 110 kilometers from Cairo. Live ammunition was fired, wounding two monks and six Coptic monastery workers. Several sources confirmed the army’s use of RPG ammunition. Four people have been arrested including three monks and a Coptic lawyer who was at the monastery investigating yesterday’s army attack. “Allahu akbar” against Christian monastery with tanks

Somehow these poor folks got the idea that Islam mandates a death penalty for apostasy. If only they had listened to Hamas-linked CAIR or any number of other Muslim groups in the U.S.! “Islamic Radicals Kill Christian Convert in Somalia,” by Alison Matheson for the Christian Post, February 24:
As was the case with the demonstration by Copts to demand a secular Egyptian government the other day, coverage of this story in the Western media has been minimal, despite thousands of Copts’ protesting in the aftermath of this murder.
“Coptic Christian priest killed in Egypt, setting off new protests by religious minority,” from the Associated Press, February 23:
ASSIUT, Egypt – A Coptic Christian priest has been killed in southern Egypt, triggering street demonstrations by several thousand Christians.
Other reports indicate that the priest’s safe was opened and property stolen, (by the police?) with police seemingly eager to settle for robbery as a motive. But one other article also notes that neighbors heard the assailants “chanting Islamic slogans.
An ex-CIA agent and counter-intelligence expert has revealed in a special report that Hussein Obama has quietly appointed members of the Muslim Brotherhood to key posts within the Administration. Dr. Clare Lopez, professor at the Centre for Counterintelligence and Security Studies, wrote a policy paper in December of 2009 which details the systematic appointment of Sharia-friendly advocates within the State Department and other government agencies.  (More from the Examiner)

Pee Wee Herman van Rompuy, the “most powerful man in Europe”- Â in ‘comedy that sucks”…..
A German court has ruled that Muslim supermarket workers don’t have to stock the alcohol shelves. The irony is, Â if you don’t hire a shelf stocker because he is Muslim, he can sue you for discrimination. Heads they win, tails you lose……
A Muslim supermarket employee in Germany was sacked when he refused on religious grounds to stock shelves with bottles of alcohol. Now the country’s highest labor court has ruled that the man’s objection was justified.

It’s not the first time a Muslim worker in Germany has gone to court over the right to practice his or her religion in the workplace. A number of high-profile cases in recent years have involved Muslim women who wanted the right to wear a headscarf while doing their jobs.
But the particulars of this case are unusual — and controversial: Germany’s highest labor court has ruled that a Muslim supermarket employee can refuse to handle alcohol on religious grounds.
The case in question involved a Muslim man who was employed in a supermarket in the northern German city of Kiel. He refused to stock shelves with alcoholic drinks, saying that his religion forbade him from any contact with alcohol, and was dismissed as a result in March 2008.
Tenessee: A proposed new state law would make following the Islamic legal code known as Shariah law a felony, punishable by 15 years in jail. (Tennessee) A dozen other states are also considering anti-Shariah law bills. Most would ban courts from citing Shariah law.
The Muslims ‘are shocked!’, they  ‘reacted with surprise and dismay at the news of the arrest Wednesday of Saudi-born Lubbock resident Khalid Ali-M Aldawsari on charges of attempted use of a weapon of mass destruction and hoped the news would not lead to retaliation.’
Nobody knows him, no one ever knew him, no one ever heard of him, and anyhow: “Aldawsari is still a suspect and has not yet been proven guilty.”
Yes. And Islam is a ‘Religion of Peace’- that’s what they say:
Members of Lubbock’s Muslim community reacted with surprise and dismay at the news of the arrest Wednesday of Saudi-born Lubbock resident Khalid Ali-M Aldawsari on charges of attempted use of a weapon of mass destruction and hoped the news would not lead to retaliation.
The St Kilda Islamic Society has held Friday prayers at the facility for years, but the council now wants to change the venue’s permit to formalise the arrangement.
What kind of prayers? Â This kind?
Bukhari (52:177) -Â Allah’s Apostle said, “The Hour will not be established until you fight with the Jews, and the stone behind which a Jew will be hiding will say. “O Muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me, so kill him.”
That council decision has given opponents of the prayer group the opportunity to get vocal.
The prayer group started in 2008 with a group of Melbourne taxi drivers who were looking for a place to worship.
They began meeting at the Alma Road Community House in Melbourne’s inner south-east, an area recognised as a Jewish enclave and does not have a local mosque.
These days about 35 men attend Friday prayers, including Qaiser Mohammed.
“They think that we are going to occupy this place. We are here for one hour [a week], just for the Friday prayer,” he said.
So what  was the hate speech all about? What did he say?
“Most drug dealers are blacks and Arabs. That’s a fact.”

“They’re threatening a mass suicide if police intervene”

India has imposed tight security measures across much of the western state of Gujarat following the conviction of 31 Muslim men for setting fire to a train in which 60 Hindu pilgrims and activists died nine years ago.
Jihad causes ‘backlash:’
The incident, which took place in the town of Godhra in February 2002, triggered some of the worst inter-communal violence in India for decades. More than 1,200 people, mainly from the minority Muslim community, were killed as groups of Hindus rioted in Muslim neighbourhoods and towns across the state.
Gujurat security officials fear a repeat of the violence following the verdict.
Ministers have identified billions of pounds that Col Muammar Gaddafi and the Libyan regime have deposited in London, The Daily Telegraph can disclose.
Col Gaddafi was yesterday accused of ordering the deaths of thousands of protesters, but he refused to surrender as Libya descended into civil war
The funds are expected to be seized within days. The Treasury is understood to have set up a unit to trace Col Gaddafi’s assets in Britain, which are thought to include billions of dollars in bank accounts, commercial property and a £10 million mansion in London.
In total, the Libyan regime is said to have around £20 billion in liquid assets, mostly in London. These are expected to be frozen as part of an international effort to force the dictator from power. A Whitehall source said: “The first priority is to get British nationals out of Libya. But then we are ready to move in on Gaddafi’s assets, the work is under way. This is definitely on the radar at the highest levels.”
Col Gaddafi was yesterday accused of ordering the deaths of thousands of protesters, but he refused to surrender as Libya descended into civil war.
In FrontPage this morning I examine Obama’s curious statement about the Libyan uprising:
In Barack Obama’s statement on the uprising in Libya Wednesday, he asserted somewhat counterfactually that “throughout this period of unrest and upheaval across the region the United States has maintained a set of core principles which guide our approach.” He added that “these principles apply to the situation in Libya” – and as he delineated them further, it became clear that he was siding strongly with the Libyan people and other Middle Eastern protesters, and that he was assuming that the recent Middle Eastern uprisings were all idealistic, humanistic pro-democracy movements. In reality, they’re anything but.
