UK: ‘Don’t teach children patriotism’

flag185x_276439a.jpg

* The self-hating commie-swine who infiltrated wakademia to pervert the education curriculum of our kids are digging themselves deeper into their hole:

Patriotism should be avoided in school lessons because British history is “morally ambiguous”, a leading educational body recommends.

History and citizenship lessons should stick to the bare facts rather than encouraging loyalty to Britain when covering subjects such as the Second World War or the British Empire, the Institute of Education researchers said. Teachers should not instill pride in what they consider great moments of British history, as more shameful episodes could be downplayed or excluded.

The slave trade, imperialism and 20th century wars should be taught as controversial issues while students are deciding how they feel about their country, the report says.

Three quarters of teachers felt obliged to tell students about the danger of patriotism. The survey suggested neither pupils nor teachers wanted patriotism endorsed by schools.

Pakistan: US accused of violating borders in al-Qaeda killing

al-libi-200×150.jpg

Rawalpindi, 1 Feb. (AKI) – By Syed Saleem Shahzad – While al-Qaeda remained silent about the death of one of its senior leaders, a former Pakistani intelligence chief condemned the US for the killing and dismissed its significance in the so-called war on terror.

A missile strike, believed to have been targeted by a missile from a CIA Predator aircraft , killed Abu Laith al-Libi near the town of Mir Ali in North Waziristan, on the Afghan border this week.

He was widely regarded as one of the senior leaders in al-Qaeda’s hierarchy and his death was a victory for the US in its anti-terrorist offensive.

Pakistan’s armed forces public relations’ chief refused to comment on the killing and Pakistan’s interior minister Hamid Nawaz denied any knowledge of the attack.

* How about dropping another hellfire missile on this A-soles head:

But former head of Pakistan’s ISI intelligence service, retired Lt. General Hamid Gul condemned the attack saying the CIA had violated the “sanctity of Pakistan’s borders’ and Pakistan should protest.

BAGHDAD – A female suicide bomber blew herself up at the main pet market in central Baghdad, killing at least 46 people and wounding dozens in the deadliest bombing to strike the capital since 30,000 more American troops began flooding into central Iraq last spring, police said.
About 20 minutes later, a second female suicide bomber struck another bird market in a predominantly Shiite area in southeastern Baghdad. That blast killed at least 18 people and wounded 25, police said.

‘Demonic’ militants sent women to bomb markets in Iraq

BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) — Two mentally disabled women were strapped with explosives Friday and sent into busy Baghdad markets, where they were blown up by remote control, a top Iraqi government official said.

The bombs killed at least 98 people and wounded more than 200 at two popular pet markets on the holiest day of the week for Muslims, authorities said.

In both bombings, the attackers were mentally disabled women whose explosive belts were remotely detonated, Gen. Qasim Atta, spokesman for Baghdad’s security plan, told state television.

Six Islamic Terrorists open fire on Israeli Embassy in Mauritania

By The Associated Press

NOUAKCHOTT, Mauritania – Six gunmen opened fire on the Israeli Embassy in Mauritania’s capital early Friday morning, trading fire with guards before fleeing screaming “Allah Akbar,” witnesses said.

The six men arrived by car and regrouped in front of a discotheque in the capital of the nortwestern African country that is just beside the embassy, said Hamza Ould Bilal, a taxi driver who was parked outside the club, called the VIP.

He saw them pull out automatic weapons and scream “The Islamic God is Greater!” “Allah Akbar,” in Arabic, before assailing the embassy, he said.

SANA, Yemen — When the Yemeni authorities released a convicted terrorist of Al Qaeda named Jamal al-Badawi from prison last October, American officials were furious. Mr. Badawi helped plan the attack on the American destroyer Cole in 2000, in which 17 American sailors were killed.

But the Yemenis saw things differently. Mr. Badawi had agreed to help track down five other members of Al Qaeda who had escaped from prison, and was more useful to the government on the street than off, said a high-level Yemeni government official, who spoke on condition of anonymity. Mr. Badawi had also pledged his loyalty to Yemen’s president before being released, the official said.

Suharto kicks the bucket, draws praise and anger in death

 suharto3001.jpg

The death of former Indonesian president Suharto was a great loss to the region, Malaysia’s Foreign Minister Syed Hamid Albar said, but his opponents have labelled his passing

“the death of a tyrant”.

r219437_860371.jpg

President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (centre) expressed his deep sorrow and asked people to pray for the late strongman. 

*

*   The United States was a steadfast ally of Suharto for much of his rule, seeing the authoritarian ruler as an effective bulwark against communism and a force for stability in the region.

Human rights abuses during Suharto’s rule included a 1965-1966 crackdown on suspected communists and sympathisers that historians estimate killed at least half a million people.

– AFP

*

*  Suharto, Indonesia’s longest serving dictator, kicked the bucket. His legacy is as Islamic (messy) as can be:

*  One of the  (very)  few who always got it right about Indonesia and East Timor is the old commie propagandist  John Pilger: you may say what you want about him: when it comes to East Timor he’s got it right. If Pilger has ever been consistent and truthful, without pushing his commie-agenda, it was about East Timor and Ambon.

Credit where credit is due: Pilger puts everyone else to shame: 

The Death Of Suharto Is A Reminder Of The West’s Ignoble Role In Propping Up A Murderous Regime 

In my film Death of a Nation, there is a sequence filmed on board an Australian aircraft flying over the island of Timor. A party is in progress, and two men in suits are toasting each other in champagne. “This is an historically unique moment,” says one of them, “that is truly uniquely historical.”

images1.jpeg

This was Gareth Evans, Australia’s then foreign minister. The other man was Ali Alatas, the principal mouthpiece of the Indonesian dictator General Suharto, who died yesterday. The year was 1989, and the two were making a grotesquely symbolic flight to celebrate the signing of a treaty that would allow Australia and the international oil and gas companies to exploit the seabed off East Timor, then illegally and viciously occupied by Suharto. The prize, according to Evans, was

“zillions of dollars”.

Beneath them lay a land of crosses: great black crosses etched against the sky, crosses on peaks, crosses in tiers on the hillsides. Filming clandestinely in East Timor, I would walk into the scrub, and there were the crosses. They littered the earth and crowded the eye. In 1993, the foreign affairs committee of Australia’s parliament reported that “at least 200,000″ had died under Indonesia’s occupation: almost a third of the population. Yet East Timor’s horror, foretold and nurtured by the US, Britain and Australia, was a sequel. “No single American action in the period after 1945,” wrote the historian Gabriel Kolko, “was as bloodthirsty as its role in Indonesia, for it tried to initiate the massacre.”

He was referring to Suharto’s seizure of power in 1965-6, which caused the violent deaths of up to a million people.

Another one who nails it is Serge Tricovic:

The Jihad against East Timor: 

Moslem fundamentalists have been brutalizing people all over the world for years, and 9/11 was just our belated introduction to the problem.   Take, for example, the murderous terror of Indonesian Muslims against Christians in East Timor, mostly unknown in America although Washington aided and abetted it.

*
East Timor is the eastern end of Timor Island, part of the vast archipelago that today makes up the island state of Indonesia. Originally a Portuguese colony, — it was one of the famous “spice islands”  –  it became a tempting morsel for the military government of neighboring Indonesia when the Portuguese empire collapsed in a bloodless military coup in 1975.  Indonesia did not have any valid claim to it, but President Gerald Ford and Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, who were visiting Jakarta, nevertheless approved the Indonesian invasion of the former Portuguese on December 7, 1975. They only asked that the attack be delayed until after their departure.

*
Kissinger told reporters that “the United States understands Indonesia’s position on the question of East Timor” and the U.S. abstained in the subsequent U.N. vote condemning the invasion.  As then-US Ambassador to the UN Daniel Patrick Moynihan said, “The United States wished things to turn out as they did, and worked to bring this about. The Department of State desired that the United Nations prove utterly ineffective in whatever measures it undertook. This task was given to me, and I carried it forward with no inconsiderable success.”  Suharto was delighted to have received U.S. support for the invasion because of the Indonesian army’s reliance on American weaponry that, by U.S. law, could only be used for defensive purposes.

*
The East Timorese did not want to be forcibly incorporated into Indonesia, and an insurgency ensued.  Washington continued to supply arms to Indonesia that were obviously not meant for general defense purposes, but specifically chosen to meet the needs of a counterinsurgency campaign. Through two and a half subsequent years of that campaign – leading to the death of about a third of the population – The New York Times ran only two brief stories about “the problem of East Timorese refugees.”

*

President Suharto’s carnage was on a scale worthy of Pol Pot. By 1989, Amnesty International estimated that Indonesia had murdered 200,000 East Timorese out of a population of 600,000-700,000.

Proponents say faith schools need specialist inspectors

*

In a controversial move, they have won the right to appoint their own Ofsted-style inspectors. A new independent watchdog has been set up to be more “sensitive” toward Islamic education.

The decision comes despite concerns some private Muslim schools are already failing to prepare pupils for life in modern Britain.

Barry Sheerman, the chairman of the Commons schools select committee, told MPs last month local councils were finding it “difficult to know what is going on in some faith schools – particularly Muslim schools”.

But religious leaders defended the move, saying the curriculum and religious traditions in faith schools demand specialist knowledge.

* That’s right: without proper Muhammedan indoctrination you can’t produce a proper fanatic…

Under present legislation, most state and private schools are inspected by Ofsted, the Government’s standards watchdog. The Association of Muslim Schools and the Christian Schools’ Trust applied to the Government to set up a separate inspectorate for a small number of private faith schools.

Stirring Outrage & Hate: Iran invites all Islamic ambassadors in the Netherlands to meeting on Wilders film

THE HAGUE, 01/02/08 – Iranian Ambassador Ziaran intends to invite all Islamic ambassadors in the Netherlands for a meeting on Party for Freedom (PVV) leader Geert Wilders’ film on the Koran.

Ziaran met this week with the LBM, a new umbrella of Moroccan organisations in the Netherlands. On NOS Journaal, the daily TV news of public broadcaster NOS, he said he would organise a meeting with the ambassadors of Islamic countries shortly on the already-controversial film that Wilders has said he plans to air in March.

LBM, chaired by former leftwing Greens (GroenLinks) MP Mohammed Rabbae called on Ziaran to issue a message to the Iranian people not to react violently to the film, in which Wilders wants to portray the Koran as a fascist book. Ziaran could not guarantee that the streets of Tehran would remain calm.

* The usual doublespek and threats: ‘we can’t control our youth’- ‘we can’t be responsible for violent reactions…’

According to De Volkskrant, Ziaran warned the Netherlands that the lives of its troops in Afghanistan may be endangered by Wilders. The newspaper yesterday quoted him as saying that the Afghans would “regard the Dutch troops as representatives of people who besmirch the Koran”.

Suicide Bomber kills 6 in Afghan Mosque

By NOOR KHAN, Associated Press Writer

A suicide bomber blew himself up Thursday in a mosque in southern Afghanistan, killing a deputy provincial governor and five other people in another blow to President Hamid Karzai’s U.S.-backed government.

The Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack, which came as U.S. officials were warning that the six-year mission to stabilize Afghanistan faces a crisis due to Taliban resilience and weakening international resolve.

Pir Mohammad, deputy governor of Helmand province, was attending noon prayers at the mosque in the provincial capital of Lashkar Gah when the bomber struck, according to police chief Mohammad Hussein Andiwal.

At least 18 people, including two children, were wounded by the blast, Andiwal said.

Muslims ‘let down by race law’

* You really can’t make this up: just in from WoJ operative Mullah:

Anti-Muslim prejudice is dealt with less seriously than other forms of discrimination, a university study found.

The Guardian (who else peddles bullshit like this?)

The research conducted at Bristol University examined 30 years of Government legislation and legal rulings to distinguish the difference between prejudice towards race, ethnicity and religion.

burka.jpg

* New ‘Race’ Discovered! Islamic Science on the move!

*
*In the study, Dr Nasar Meer, research associate in the Department of Sociology at Bristol, found that Muslims are let down by race legislation because being a Muslim is recognised as a lifestyle choice or a “voluntary identity”.

* Let me take a wild guess: Dr Nasar Meer is a raving Christianophobic, Judeophobic, Hindu-Sikh& Buddhistophobic Muslim, but more than anything he is a devoted slave of Allah who applies Islamic science in his research…?

*
Dr Meer says other religious identities – such as Sikh and Jew – have had race law applied in their favour in a way not extended to Muslim communities.
He said many Muslims view their faith as an “involuntary identity” as they are born into the religion.

* Really? But aren’t most of us somehow born into a faith, even no faith at all? And isnt it the Muslims who keep telling us that they have ‘chosen’ their religion?

He said: “We explored what legislation exists to help protect people with what we call an involuntary identity. People with an involuntary identity shouldn’t be disadvantaged by others’ views.
The legislation should offer them support and make sure they’re not discriminated against.

Muslims have been totally missed out of the protection offered by race-relations legislation because it treats Islam as a religion and not a race.”

* Here we go: religious vilification doesn’t cut the mustard for the good doctor, he wants Islam to become a ‘race’- what say you Yvonne Ridley? (Remember Yvonne Ridley is the ex-nun-come journo/ captive of the Taliban who ‘reverted’ to Islam, wrapped a scarf around her head and declared everyone who disagreed with her new found faith a ‘racist’- if it was only that easy!

Hateful, rabid scum: Ridley

Dr Meer said he has come across various examples of when hatred towards Muslims was dismissed but hatred towards other religions had not been tolerated.

Oxford clergyman attacks Muslim plans for calls to prayer

Stop Mosquing Around!

The clergyman who runs one of Oxford’s largest and most successful churches has attacked Muslim plans to begin calls to prayer from the city’s Central Mosque.

The Rev Charlie Cleverley, Rector of St Aldate’s, a thriving charismatic evangelical church in the heart of Oxford, claims non-Muslim residents will be driven away by the thrice-daily calls to prayer over the eastern part of the city.

In coming out against the proposals, Mr Cleverley, who previously worked at a church in a Muslim area of Paris, is going against the views of his own bishop.

More Resistance against Mosques in the U.S.

A Baptist church in Ohio is being accused of religious intolerance for allegedly thwarting a plan to build a mosque on nearby property.

The board of zoning appeals in Sugarcreek Township, Ohio, insists its 5-0 vote against a variance request that would have permitted the Islamic Society of Greater Dayton to build the mosque was not influenced by the local First Baptist Church. The rejection, officials say, was based only on the expected sewage and traffic impact, the Dayton Daily News reported.

* Whatever it takes…

But the senior pastor of the 1,900-member church, Barry Jude, has made his opposition to the mosque clear.

“We just feel that Christianity is right and that Islam is wrong,” Jude told the Daily News. “Therefore, we take a stand to see (a mosque) not in our community. The wonderful thing about our American culture is that you have the right to speak out against something you don’t support.”

The paper says the issue “has touched on larger questions: Does the presence of a mosque locally evoke feelings of fear or even hatred? Are church officials saying out loud what a lot of people are thinking privately?”

The Guardian provides a forum for the fairy-tale of 'Islamic Science'

It’s time to herald the Arabic science that prefigured Darwin and Newton

In this era of intolerance and cultural tension, the west needs to appreciate the fertile scholarship that flowered with Islam

800px-dr_jim_al-khalili_and_bell_antenna.jpg

Jim Al-Khalili

Watching the daily news stories of never-ending troubles, hardship, misery and violence across the Arab world and central Asia, it is not surprising that many in the west view the culture of these countries as backward, and their religion as at best conservative and often as violent and extremist.

I am on a mission to dismiss a crude and inaccurate historical hegemony and present the positive face of Islam. It has never been more timely or more resonant to explore the extent to which western cultural and scientific thought is indebted to the work, a thousand years ago, of Arab and Muslim thinkers.

What is remarkable, for instance, is that for over 700 years the international language of science was Arabic (which is why I describe it as “Arabic science”). More surprising, maybe, is the fact that one of the most fertile periods of scholarship and scientific progress in history would not have taken place without the spread of Islam across the Middle East, Persia, north Africa and Spain. I have no religious or political axe to grind. As the son of a Protestant Christian mother and a Shia Muslim father, I have nevertheless ended up without a religious bone in my body. However, having spent a happy and comfortable childhood in Iraq in the 60s and 70s, I confess to strong nostalgic motives for my fascination in the history of Arabic science.

A learned man, this doctor Khalili. What may drive him to peddle these often debunked Arabic fairy-tales?

One commenter, the first one on the blog, doesn’t buy any:

CommiePrick
January 30, 2008 2:13 AM

Utter nonsense, Arabic science was by and large a simple rebranding exercise of existing bodies of work from India and China, coupled with looted classical research and researchers taken with the expansion of Islam. Time and time again Arab claims do not stand up to scrutiny – the concept of zero ‘borrowed’ from Buddist Mathematicians etc.

If only their application in plagiarism was matched in genuine scientific inquiry and the development of their society.

Newsweek discovers the jihad

Why can’t we call the enemy by its name? We’re going to have to in order to win.

By George Weigel

What kind of campaign is this? Six-plus years after 9/11; while the Taliban attempts an Afghanistan comeback; as Islamist terrorists cause mayhem in Algeria and occupy huge swaths of tribal Pakistan; despite “United 93” and “The Kite Runner,” a library-full of books, presidential commissions, congressional hearings, and four election cycles—despite all of that, a strange, Victorian reticence about naming the enemy in the contest for the human future in which we are engaged befogs this political season.

Such reticence is an obstacle to victory in a war we cannot avoid and in which we must prevail. For if there is one thing certain in this season of great uncertainties, it is that the war against jihadism will be staring the next president of the United States in the face at high noon on Inauguration Day, 2009.

That is what we are fighting: jihadism, the religiously inspired ideology which teaches that it is every Muslim’s duty to use any means necessary to compel the world’s submission to Islam.
