The Future of Syria

Update:

Government tries to appease Islamic supremacists by freeing 260 of them from prison; they burn Baath party building and police station

Wannabe Arab George Galloway  sings the praises of the chinless opthometrist:

For me he is the last Arab ruler, and Syria is the last Arab country. It is the fortress of the remaining dignity of the Arabs, and that’s why I’m proud to be here and addressing you this evening.  The reason why Syria is being threatened is not because of anything bad which she did, but because of the good which she is doing.

–George Galloway at Damascus University, November 2005   –

Harry’s Place has an update: Then and now

by Khaled Abu Toameh/Hudson NY

The Syrians have finally realised that their “young, charismatic, UK-educated and open minded” president is following in the footsteps of his late father, Hafez el Assad.

Young Bashar el Assad drew gasps of admiration in years gone by from Western Arabists who believed he was going open a new page in Syria’s history by introducing democratic values.

Just as Colonel Muammar Gaddafi’s son, Seif ul Islam, was once praised as the new, liberal and democratic hope of Libya, so Bashar was projected eleven years ago as representing a new generation of Arab leaders willing to break away from a dark and dictatorial past.

But the events of the last few days in Syria, which have seen unarmed demonstrators gunned down by government forces, prove conclusively that when push comes to shove, Bashar is actually not all that different from his late father. As some of his critic comment, “The apple does not fall far from the tree.”

His handling of pro-democracy protests that have erupted in several Syrian cities since March 15 is a reminder that Bashar is a dictator who, like Colonel Gaddafi and Yemen’s Ali Abdullah Saleh, will not surrender power gracefully.

Soldiers of Allah March for Sharia: Stop the Crusaders!

Sharia march and Interview Oxford St March 25

AP spins it: LONDON (AP/THE BLAZE) —

Tens of thousands of mostly peaceful demonstrators streamed into central London on Saturday to march against government budget cuts, with a small breakaway group smashing its way into a bank, breaking windows and spray painting logos on the walls.

Moonbattery is more ‘fair & balanced’:

London Riots Illustrate the Decline and Fall of Britain

Liberalism is a disease that attacks the moral backbone of a civilization, rotting it into a putrescent jelly that cannot hold society erect. At that point it collapses. This is happening now in Britain, which was one of the greatest nations in history within the memory of many still living today.

Anarchists today broke away from one of the largest protests Britain has ever seen to bring chaos to the streets of London.

The Ritz hotel and Fortnum & Mason were among the buildings targeted in the capital after groups of rampaging youths intent on spreading havoc left the mass anti-cuts demonstration.

Around 500,000 ‘activists and campaigners’ descended on London this morning to protest at the Government’s drastic cuts programme.

The cuts were as inevitable as the riots. As the last great British leader Margaret Thatcherobserved, “The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people’s money. ”

Here’s what liberalism looks like when it reaches full flower:

The white stuff is paint. The cockroaches with the masks are the result of generations that were never expected to take any responsibility for their own parasitical existences. They are Britain’s post-civilization future, bred by the Dole.

Next comes authoritarian collectivism, a totalitarian form of serfdom.

If this could happen to Britain, it could happen to America — and it will, if the disease is not cured quickly.

The police seek shelter from the fury of the anarchist attackers. Where have we seen this before?

Geert Wilders: The Failure of Multiculturalism and How to Turn the Tide (JW)

Geert Wilders’s speech at the Annual Lecture at the Magna Carta Foundation in Rome on March 25:

Signore e signori, ladies and gentlemen, dear friends of the Magna Carta Foundation, molte grazie. Thank you for inviting me to Rome. It is great to be here in this beautiful city which for many centuries was the capital and the centre of Europe’s Judeo-Christian culture.

Together with Jerusalem and Athens, Rome is the cradle of our Western civilization – the most advanced and superior civilization the world has ever known.

As Westerners, we share the same Judeo-Christian culture. I am from the Netherlands and you are from Italy. Our national cultures are branches of the same tree. We do not belong to multiple cultures, but to different branches of one single culture. This is why when we come to Rome, we all come home in a sense. We belong here, as we also belong in Athens and in Jerusalem.

It is important that we know where our roots are. If we lose them we become deracinated. We become men and women without a culture.

The Paki Report: Pastor Jones Koran Burning Draws Death Fartwa

Zardari denounces Koran burning by Florida pastor

Paki Thug-in  Chief  Asif Ali Zardari on Tuesday denounced the burning of Islam’s holy book by a U.S. pastor, saying it was serious setback to efforts to “promote harmony” in the world.

The U.S. ambassador to Pakistan prefers to stay alive, choses dhimmitude and does a  *Condi Rice act:

“The deliberate destruction of any holy book is an abhorrent act,” he said in a statement. “This is an isolated act done by a small group of people that is contrary to American traditions.”

The Christian preacher Terry Jones, who after international condemnation last year cancelled a plan to burn copies of the Koran to mark the anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks on the United States, supervised the burning of the book in front of a crowd of about 50 people at an obscure church in Florida on Sunday, according to his website.

KRudd, Al Qaeda's Useful Idiot

Update:

Our union boss joins the Arab uprising

Again: Glenn Beck is right. The unions play a much bigger role in the Islamic ‘revolution’ in the ME than most of us can possibly imagine.

Sharan Burrow: “I came away from Tunisia incredibly proud of the work that the unions have done in helping to organise the revolution and I was really humbled by the courage a lot of ordinary workers and union members have been showing,” she tells Inquirer. (The Islamo-Socialist Convergence)

US Troops join Al Qaeda, Rebels in Libya (Atlas)

You might have guessed Libya was KRudd’s fault

“Credited” or “blamed” KRudd?

ONE of Europe’s highest-ranking diplomats has credited Foreign Minister Kevin Rudd with helping change the international mood on Libya, leading to implementation of a no-fly zone.

While stopping short of saying Mr Rudd had any direct impact on the UN no-fly resolution, the European Union’s senior foreign policy adviser, Robert Cooper, said Mr Rudd’s activism on the issue had been noticed by the key international players.

Let’s check on who is being helped most by Rudd’s no-fly zone:

Libyan rebel commander admits his fighters have al-Qaeda links

Abdel-Hakim al-Hasidi, the Libyan rebel leader, has said jihadists who fought against allied troops in Iraq are on the front lines of the battle against Muammar Gaddafi’s regime.

Mr al-Hasidi insisted his fighters “are patriots and good Muslims, not terrorists,” but added that the “members of al-Qaeda are also good Muslims and are fighting against the invader”. (source)

Meanwhile, the operation itself has all the oganisational neatness of a government pink batts scheme:

A NATO decision to take charge of a no-fly zone over Libya does not include conducting air strikes against Muammar Gaddafi’s ground forces, a mission that will remain in U.S. hands until a new command deal is reached, Vice Admiral Bill Gortney said on Friday.

There’s a traitor in the white house:

If sending the US military into combat on behalf of al-Qaeda doesn’t qualify as treason, how about this. The Obama Regime deliberately allowed American guns to be smuggled into Mexico, knowing that they would be used to create mayhem when they inevitably bounced back across the deliberately under-defended border. The purpose: to undermine our constitutional right to bear arms by using American-bought guns in Mexican hands as a propaganda cudgel. Border Agent Brian Terry, while providing free police services to illegal aliens, was killed by one of these weapons when he was sent up against heavily armed Mexican bandits with a beanbag gun. Details from Wayne LaPierre of the NRA, via the Glenn Beck show:

The Obama Misadministration apparently wants to scapegoat the Phoenix ATF office, but a plan this deranged could only have come from inside the Beltway. If this goes beyond Eric Holder to the very top of the dung heap — and the thorough congressional investigation that is obviously required will probably prove that it does — the only question is, do we impeach Obama for: A) treason, B) gross incompetence, C) complicity in Bryan Terry’s murder, or D) all of the above.

ATLANTA (AP) — Former President Jimmy Carter is expected to visit Cuba next week to meet with Cuban President Raul Castro to discuss economic policies and ways to improve relations between the U.S. and Cuba.

The former president and his wife Rosalynn will arrive in Havana on Monday and stay until Wednesday on a trip under the auspices of his Atlanta-based Carter Center organization, spokeswoman Deanna Congileo said. It is not an official U.S. mission. (AP has more)

Detroit: Celebrating Diversity on the Ruins of Muslicultural Disaster

Census shows Michigan needs immigrants, Snyder says

Socialism is a failure, so when it fails, only more of it can fix it. You can also try to put the fire out with gasoline, but don’t tell  a socialist, he might believe you:

“We need to celebrate diversity; it’s one of our strengths. “

Detroit’s Liberal Nightmare

KAREN BOUFFARD
Detroit News Lansing Bureau

Lansing— Gov. Rick Snyder today restated his call for increased immigration in the state in the wake of U.S. Census figures released Tuesday showing a steep decline in Michigan’s population.

The governor told Muslim leaders gathered in Lansing for an annual “Michigan Muslim Capitol Day” that Michigan’s diversity is a selling point for businesses that can spur economic growth in the state.

Even with Detroit in ruins, and nature reclaiming the abandoned wasteland that was once a great city, the Dems who destroyed it continue to make out like the bandits they are:

“Islamic Human Rights Commmission” Campaigning Hard For Imprisoned Al Qaeda Preacher

Not physically eliminating mass-murdering jihadists will inevitably result in giving them a second chance. Our humanity (or is it our stupidity?) is killing us:

“Blind Sheikh”,  Omar Abdel Rahman

The Islamic Human Rights Commission is a Khomeinist pressure group, which organises the annual Islamic Republic sponsored “Al Quds Day” extremism fest.

For some time now, the IHRC has been campaigning for the “Blind Sheikh”,Omar Abdel Rahman: the spiritual leader of, Egyptian Islamic Jihad and Al-Gama’a al-Islamiyya, which later were consolidated into Al Qaeda. He was an associate of Bin Laden, and his teacher,  Abdullah Azzam. Having moved to New York to fundraise for Al Qaeda, the Blind Sheikh was convicted of various charges arising from the  the World Trade Center 1993 bombings.

The fact that the Blind Sheikh is the IHRC’s Prisoner of Conscience tells you everything you need to know about this organisation.

Here’s what they say about the man:

Action Alert: Egypt – IHRC calls for the release of Sheikh Omar Abdul Rahman and his return to Egypt (more from Harry’s Place: “Islamic Human Rights Commmission” Campaigning Hard For Imprisoned Al Qaeda Preacher)

Nobody knew him. So how could a dodgy 'community organizer' become POTUS?

Rush Limbaugh:

“You and I have known all along that we’re dealing with a man-child here who has, literally, no qualifications, no experience, and according to Donald Trump now, no birth certificate….”

Trump Won’t Back Off Obama’s Birth Papers & Trump Attacked for Demanding Obama Birth Docs

Don’t you think its strange that the Whoopies, the Behar’s and the Walters constantly throw hissy fits and attack the skeptics rather than the Obamessiah and his paperless trail?

Who is this guy?

Alinsky disciple Obama

“The reason I have a little doubt, just a little, is because he grew up and nobody knew him,” Trump had remarked famously to ABC News. The potential presidential contender followed up his theme on Wednesday’s “The View,” again on the ABC Network.

There’s “something on that birth certificate that he doesn’t like,” Trump opined to the cast members, including Whoopi Goldberg and Barbara Walters, who berated him, accusing him of possibly racist thoughts on the issue.

On Limbaugh’s show Thursday, the radio talker Limbaugh sided with Trump’s beating of the birth certificate drum. “You and I have known all along that we’re dealing with a man-child here who has, literally, no qualifications, no experience, and according to Donald Trump now, no birth certificate,” Limbaugh declared.   (Newsmax)
