This is not a demonstration against ‘Abu Ghraib’ or a cartoon riot, this is the real thing against one of the most paranoid, perverted and murderous regimes in the world.

* Professors at the university have joined students in criticising President Ahmadinejad for clamping down on dissent

*

Students defied a clampdown on protests in Iran yesterday by tearing down the gates of Tehran university.

They chanted slogans against President Ahmadinejad and carried placards saying “Live free or die”, “No war, no fascism” and “Women must decide their fate, not the state.”

They wrecked the iron-barred gates and threw stones at police, according to Iranian state radio, which said the protest ended peacefully.

Tehran University is the largest and one of the oldest universities in Iran.

Student protests have been rare in recent years. Western rights groups have accused Iran of banning dissent.

But there was a demonstration in Tehran last month against the detention of three students who were picked up during a protest at another Iranian university a week earlier.

Some of the placards yesterday named the arrested students.

Professors have joined them in criticising Ahmadinejad for clamping down on dissent on campuses.

The president and his government say they “support free speech and welcome constructive opposition”.

WTF is wrong with the US of A?

CAIR calls for ‘conversation to begin’ at banquet

* What they really mean is ‘conversion’- not conversation…

By ABDUSSALAM MOHAMED, Senior Staff Writer

ANAHEIM, Calif. – With star power at hand, the Council on American-Islamic Relation’s annual banquet and fund-raiser was off to a thrilling start. From first-ever Muslim Congressman Keith Ellison, to LA County Sheriff Lee Baca and actor Carl Weathers, the packed ballroom inside the Anaheim Hilton hotel was bursting at the seams with members of the Muslim community, elected leaders and various interfaith groups who came to celebrate CAIR’s achievements.

Over 2,000 people attended the banquet, making it possibly the largest Muslim fundraiser in the nation.

The theme of this year’s event by CAIR’s Greater Los Angeles chapter was a call for a conversation to begin, a conversation spearheaded by various community leaders who spoke with a united voice, calling for peace and unity while denouncing racism, intolerance and stereotyping.

* There’s a sucker born every minute…

“There is great diversity in the Muslim community,” Baca said. “And CAIR is a leading voice in calling for tolerance, equality and unity.”

* against the kuffar, of course.

* The best sources of information are, as always, the Islamic websites. In the past we’ve had many a good laugh about the absurdities and the bizarre rulings of these very unholy men and the stupidity of those who make these inquiries. But there is also a very serious aspect here that once again shows clearly the connection between the mosque and the potential suicide bombers.

Is it better to do a voluntary Hajj or to donate to the mujaahideen who are fighting for the sake of Allaah?

Question:

I have done the obligatory Hajj, praise be to Allaah, and I have done ‘umrah. Is it better for me to travel for ‘umrah, or to give this money in charity to the mujaahideen who are fighting for the sake of Allaah?

Answer:

Praise be to Allaah.

Both travelling for ‘umrah and spending for the sake of Allaah are good deeds, but the benefit of ‘umrah is limited to the one who does it, whereas the benefit of spending on jihad is more far-reaching, so spending on that is more appropriate and takes precedence.

And Allaah is the Source of strength. May Allaah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and companions. End quote.

Standing Committee for Academic Research and Issuing Fatwas

Shaykh ‘Abd al-‘Azeez ibn ‘Abd-Allaah ibn Baaz, Shaykh ‘Abd al-Razzaaq ‘Afeefi, Shaykh ‘Abd-Allaah ibn Ghadyaan.

Remember, to do Hajj is supposed to be the single most religious obligation upon a Muslim.

And yet the Standing Committee for Academic Research and Issuing Fatwas declare giving money to Islamic jihadists is an even more sacred duty.

But they aren’t promoting terrorism.

Not at all.

Israels Arab-Muslims Embark on Journey to Mecca 

Saudi Arabia is expecting more than two million visitors this month for the annual Hajj, a momentous event in the Muslim calendar.

* Obviously they haven’t heard that jihad is much more important…
The four-day pilgrimage brings together Muslim worshippers from all corners of the globe to take part in an event that every able Muslim must carry out at least once in his or her lifetime.

As in previous years, there will be pilgrims from a most unlikely destination: some 4,500 Muslims have departed for Mecca from their homes in Israel, a Jewish country with no diplomatic ties with Saudi Arabia.

The spiritual weight of the Hajj is enough to overcome the political complications involved in a delegation of Israelis traveling to enemy soil.

Turkey: Chip-Chip-Chipping Away On Ataturks Secular State

Thousands of Turks march against judiciary law

(Reuters)

* Give Muslims a chance, and they’ll vote for Islamic oppression everytime.

ANKARA – Thousands of Turks protested on Sunday against a new law opponents say will undermine judicial independence and demanded respect for secularist values in a new constitution being prepared by the Islamist-rooted ruling party.

Lawyers and judges led the demonstration to protest against the law, which changes the appointment process for judges and prosecutors.

The law introduces a justice ministry interview into the selection process. Critics say that opens the way for political interference.

Opponents have also criticised President Abdullah Gul, a former member of the ruling AK Party whose role is to review legislation, for approving the law in just a few days. Gul’s office said a review of the law had started before the draft went to parliament.

‘They do not know the importance of judicial independence … but we will explain it to them, we will teach them,’ Turkish Bar Association Chairman Ozdemir Ozok shouted to the crowd in Ankara.

The judiciary is traditionally a bastion of secularism and the march turned into a pro-secularist rally.

It was reminiscent of massive protests earlier this year at which demonstrators accused the AK Party, whose roots are in political Islam, of undermining Muslim Turkey’s official secular order.

‘Turkey is secular and will remain secular!’ protesters shouted, waving Turkish flags and pictures of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, founder of the modern secular republic.

No official figures were available, but television footage showed around 5,000-10,000 people at the march, held amid tight security.

The AK Party is preparing a new constitution, to replace a text drafted after a 1980 military coup, and secularists fear the new text will blur the strict separation of religion and state.

The party signalled last week it planned to ease a ban on the use of Muslim headscarves at universities in the new charter, something the secularist establishment fiercely opposes.

* It is a shame to cry for democracy in order to allow for the practice of a religion that is, in itself a dictatorship… This paradox is appaling, hence the statement of the PM Erdogan: “…democracy is a bus, we can get off anytime we want.”

*

* Hugh Fitzgerald:

Islamic propagandists frequently bring out the old chestnut about there being “no compulsion in religion.” Perhaps unaware that in the lands conquered by Muslims they offered, as Qur’an and Sunnah tell them to offer, only three possibilities to non-Muslims: death, conversion, or the status of humiliation, degradation, and physical insecurity known as that of the “dhimmi.”

* The reality is different: “Whoever changes his religion, kill him.”

“The punishment for apostasy (riddah) is well-known in Islaamic Sharee’ah. The one who leaves Islaam will be asked to repent by the Sharee’ah judge in an Islaamic country; if he does not repent and come back to the true religion, he will be killed as a kaafir and apostate, because of the command of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): “Whoever changes his religion, kill him.” (Reported by al-Bukhaari, 3017).

* Each of the 4 schools of Sharia has its own epistle, recorded by various authors in the form of Risalas. You can even look them up and read them online – they are straight forward statute-containing law books, which you can quote chapter, section, paragraph, line, ect…just like traffic laws.

*  For example, from the Risala Al-Maliki as recorded by Abdullah ibn Abi Zayd al-Qayrawani (922-986A.D.) Chapter 37.19:

The apostate is killed unless he repents. He is allowed three days grace; if he fails to utilise the chance to repent, the execution takes place. This same also applies to women apostates.

This particular fiqh, or law, is not significantly different in any of the other 3 Sharia epistles, and in fact, is based dierctly on the words of Mohammad (PBUH) himself.

Here is a good piece on the difficulties that converts from Islam to Christianity face, including death threats — in the UK. And “moderate” Muslim leaders are reluctant to condemn these things, to the puzzlement of British authorities who are as clueless as are all other Western officials about the universality among all the schools of Islamic law of the death penalty for apostasy.

Patrick Sookhdeo was born a Muslim, but later converted to Christianity. He is now international director of the Barnabas Fund, an organisation that aims to research and to ameliorate the conditions of Christians living in countries hostile to their religion.

He notes that “all four schools of Sunni law, as well as the Shia variety, call for the death penalty for apostates. Most Muslim scholars say that Muslim religious law – sharia – requires the death penalty for apostasy.

“In 2004, Prince Charles called a meeting of leading Muslims to discuss the issue,” adds Dr Sookhdeo. “I was there. All the Muslim leaders at that meeting agreed that the penalty in sharia is death. The hope was that they would issue a public declaration repudiating that doctrine, but not one of them did.”

The reluctance to condemn sharia law is widespread. I asked Mr Bunglawala, for instance, to condemn the Islamic states that imposed the death penalty for apostasy. He did not do so, merely commenting that “it was a matter for those states”….

More information on this story. “Imam’s daughter in hiding after her conversion to Christianity sparked death threats,” by Liz Hull and Daniel Bates in the Daily Mail (thanks to DW):

The daughter of a British imam is living under police protection after receiving death threats from her father for converting to Christianity.
The 31-year-old, whose father is the leader of a mosque in Lancashire, has moved house an astonishing 45 times after relatives pledged to hunt her down and kill her.

The British-born university graduate, who uses the pseudonym Hannah for her own safety, said she renounced the Muslim faith to escape being forced into an arranged marriage when she was 16.

She has been in hiding for more than a decade but called in police only a few months ago after receiving a text message from her brother.

In it, he said he would not be held responsible for his actions if she failed to return to Islam.

Officers have agreed to offer her protection in case of an attempt on her life.

Last night the woman said: […] “I know the Koran says anyone who goes away from Islam should be killed as an apostate, so in some ways my family are following the Koran. They are following Islam to the word.

Al-Shafi’i, the Muslim jurist who founded the school of Sunni jurisprudence that bears his name, held that Qur’an 2:217 called for the killing of the apostate: “And they will not cease from fighting against you till they have made you renegades from your religion, if they can. And whoso becometh a renegade and dieth in his disbelief: such are they whose works have fallen both in the world and the Hereafter.” Others point to Qur’an 4:89 — “But if they turn renegades, seize them and slay them wherever ye find them” — as calling for the execution of apostates. The Qur’an interpreter Baydawi explained this verse this way: “Whosoever turns back from his belief (irtada), openly or secretly, take him and kill him wheresoever ye find him, like any other infidel.”

Gaddafi Wants Tent, Women in France

By: Newsmax Staff

Gaddafi’s female entourage…

Libya’s Muammar Gaddafi is coming to France next week and has made clear want he wants: a tent to live in, 200 attractive French women, and some nuclear energy.

Col. Gaddafi, who has been Libya’s dictator for almost four decades, has been known for bizarre activities. Reportedly he likes to dress up in drag.

Gaddafi is also said to suffer from claustrophobia and prefers to live in tents. The French government has acceded to his wish and has set one up next to the Hotel Marigny, the country’s official guest house.

According to French media, the dictator also wants to “meet 200 Frenchwomen and to go to a Renault factory to see ‘the working class.'”

* Cool as a turd with a cocktail cherry…

France has been accommodating to Gaddafi as he is set to sign a nuclear energy deal.

* “Nuclear energy” is all this hostage taking, extortionist lunatic needs.

The new French president, Nicolas Sarkozy, has moved rapidly to sign up mega nuclear deals with a host of Arab countries.

In the past week, France signed such a deal with Algeria, and this past October one with Morroco. He is reportedly offering help to the Saudis to build a nuclear reactor.

* France is bankrupt, morally as well as financially.

The deals mean big bucks for the French economy. But some are worried. Germany said that “the risk of proliferation rises with every country that uses nuclear energy.”

PLO representatives will try to raise $7.1 billion (4.8 billion euros) in hand-outs at an upcoming meeting of donors in Paris, according to the PLO economy minister on Saturday. The meeting will be hosted in the French capital, just days after sweeping riots connected to Arab, Muslim, and other immigrants were quelled by a massive police crackdown.

The Arab organization says the funds will be used to boost the local Arab economy and to increase the 2008 to 2010 budget. Included in the plan will be to pay salaries and fund armed forces.

JEW HATERS ATTACK SARKOZY IN ALGIERS

Hat tip Atlas

* It is morbidly fascinating that if you are sympathetic to the plight of the Jews you are immediately labeled a Jew or a tool of the infamous “Jewish lobby.” This report out of Algiers on the antisemitic attacks on French Sarkozy are a clear indication of just how bad things are getting for the Jews. Just for knowing, Sarkozy is not Jewish. His grandfather, a Sephardi Jew by birth, was a convert to Catholicism, and Sarkozy was raised a Catholic, (not that it should matter, but it does). *

Sarkozy faces antisemitic jibes in Algeria

Cowardly, shameful behavior by France’s new PM

French President Nicolas Sarkozy’s first official visit to Algeria this week was overshadowed after he became the target of antisemitic insults.

Only a few days prior to the visit, Algerian minister Mohamed Cherif Abbés claimed in the El–Khabar newspaper that Mr Sarkozy had been elected through the manoeuvres of “the Jewish lobby” and made reference to the president’s Jewish origins.

The Algerian authorities refused to apologise for the assault, and Socialist leaders Jean-Christophe Cambadélis and Pierre Moscovici pleaded for a rescheduling of the trip, stating the attack was “intolerable”.

However, Mr Sarkozy decided to push forward with the meeting, attempting to consolidate tense bilateral ties and to sign $5 billion (£2.5bn) of energy deals.

Mr Abbés’s comments were not the first antisemitic attacks launched against Mr Sarkozy. Extremist leader Jean-Marie Le Pen has pointed at Mr Sarkozy’s ancestors, saying “he is Jewish through his mother”, and several weeks ago Mr Sarkozy was even accused of spying for Israel’s Mossad intelligence service. But Mr Abbés’s assault was the first public antisemitic attack made by an Algerian official and was followed by the Algerian authorities’ refusal to allow entrance to one of Mr Sarkozy’s guests on the visit, a French-Jewish singer of Algerian descent, Enrico Macias. The French Jewish umbrella group CRIF said it was “disgusted” by these decisions.

The attacks may have been intentional, coming at a time when Algeria is trying to make its mark in the region. Mr Sarkozy, who has strengthened relations with Morocco, Algeria’s rival, wants to develop a Mediterranean Union that would include Israel, but Algeria prefers to keep Israel out.

However, the most obvious issues of discord were France’s past colonial rule in North Africa and Mr Sarkozy’s refusal to issue an official apology, as well as his immigration policy, which has been strongly criticised in Algeria.

The French president chose to remain focused on his mission, condemning colonisation but refusing to issue an excuse. He replied to the minister’s antisemitic attacks in his speech, calling for a fight against racism, antisemitism and Islamophobia.

“Nothing resembles antisemitism more than the hatred of Islam,” Mr Sarkozy told the Algerian Parliament. “Antisemitism and Islamophobia have the same face, the face of foolishness and hatred. We can’t explain them, we simply have to fight against them.”

* Is this guy for real?

* If Sakozy had balls he would tell the Algeriennes to shove it where the sun don’t shine and ship them back 3 million ‘youth’s’ who wreck havoc in France

EXCLUSIVE: Paul Lampathakis and Nicole Cox/ thanks to WoJ reader Savitch:

* Infiltration exposed, indoctrination centre shut down:

A MUSLIM school in Kenwick has been raided by police and shut down by WA Education Minister Mark McGowan. The school’s head faces a stealing charge.

Mr McGowan said he had taken the extraordinary step of closing Muslim Ladies’ College in Kenwick because of allegations, including fraud and the use of unregistered teachers who were focusing mainly on religion, rather than the WA curriculum.

The school’s acting director, Zubair Sayed, appeared in East Perth Magistrates Court on Saturday charged with stealing.

The court was told the charge related to an alleged theft offence — of $355,934 — in April, when Mr Sayed, of Sarah Close, Canning Vale, was a company director of Muslim Links Australia Ltd.

It is alleged the school was overclaiming for state and federal government funds for students. Police prosecutor Sgt Scott McCormick told the court that detectives had discovered the money had been sent to Pakistan.

* Whatever it takes to further the global jihad…

“This is a matter which is of extreme seriousness, whereby Mr Sayed obtained public money from the commonwealth by deceit,” Sgt McCormick said. “The state wishes to put on the record that this is a very serious charge.”

The court was told that Mr Sayed wrote a Commonwealth Bank cheque for money from the Federal Government that was meant for the Muslim Ladies’ College to educate students.

* What could be more important than Islamo-fascist indoctrination?

At the time, Mr Sayed’s brother was principal of the college.

Magistrate Vicki Stewart granted Mr Sayed bail, with conditions he surrender his passport, not be within 1km of international sea or air ports, report to Cannington police station each Wednesday and reside at his home address.

He was released on $100,000 bail and a $100,000 surety to reappear in Perth Magistrates Court on January 2 next year.

On Friday, Mr McGowan told The Sunday Times: “I want to make it clear that this decision (to close the school) has not been made because this is a Muslim school.

“This decision has been made because this is a school that is not educating students properly.

* No need for apologies. Islam wants you dead or converted, don’t bother, mate…

“An investigation into the operations of the college by the Department of Educational Services began in December 2006 — following complaints about the conduct of the principal-administrator, staffing of the college and the educational program.”

Key areas investigated included whether teachers were registered, the appropriateness of qualifications of teachers, inadequate educational leadership and standard of education, and the sufficiency of the school’s resources.

Mr McGowan said other concerns were about the college’s governance structure, the condition of buildings, and facilities and enrolment, and attendance procedures.

He said it was found that teachers were inexperienced in teaching and understanding the curriculum framework, and students weren’t being taught all required subjects.

“The college has employed a number of unregistered teachers and many with limited authority to teach,” he said. “Teachers are not spending 50 per cent of the school day on literacy and numeracy, as required.

* Suicide bombers and breeders don’t need literacy and numeracy, what are you, some kind of Islamophobe?

“Instead (they) spend a large amount of time on religious studies. This is clearly unacceptable and seriously damaging to the student’s academic well-being.

“The school is not being properly led because the director of the college (Anwar Sayed) is in Afghanistan and has been for most of the year.”

* Is he a ‘martyr’ or not yet?

Mr McGowan wrote to the school’s governing body to notify them of his decision, which took effect from Friday.

He said enrolments had declined in the past year, from about 90 students at the beginning of 2007 to about 50 or 60 students currently.

* That’s a lot of potential suicide bombers. Have they been interned yet or are we going to deport them, when exactly?

* Faisal Joseph, a lawyer from the Canadian Islamic Congress who is representing the four students, argued that “journalists can’t write just anything.”

* “You have to be responsible. There are limits on freedom of expression, people seem to forget that,”

* Wouldn’t that be nice for our Muhammedan subversives?

* Muslim students file rights complaints over Maclean’s article

* But Muslim Canadian Congress defends Maclean’s freedom of expression

* Astounding!

*

Four students at Toronto’s Osgoode Hall Law School are accusing Maclean’s magazine of violating their human rights over an article titled The Future Belongs to Islam.

* Which is what every Muhammedan cleric has been telling us ever since we started listening, innit?

They’ve filed complaints with the federal, Ontario and British Columbia human rights commissions over the October 2006 article.

The article discusses the high birth rate among Muslims and speculates that Islamic people could become the majority population in Europe. It also says some Muslims are violent radicals.

* Now ain’t that the truth? Who said ‘we will outbreed you with the bellies of our women?

Naseem Mithoowani, one of the Osgoode Hall law students bringing forward the complaint, said the article was one of a series of articles offensive to Muslims.

“This isn’t just one article in a context of fair and balanced media. This really was the straw that broke the camel’s back because it’s one in a string of articles that are anti-Islam and anti-Muslim,” she told CBC News.

* Being anti-Islamic is a matter of self-preservation, because Islam wants us dead or converted or in dhimmitude-slavery, resistance is not an option, but every citizens duty.

Mark Steyn

Khurrum Awan, another of the students, said the group will argue before the commissions that such articles tend to subject Muslims to hatred or contempt.

* You see, they just wanna be loved by you…and do everything possible to shut you up.

“To say that we share the same basic goals as terrorists … if you look at the theme of the article in the context, it is putting that label on all of us and I felt personally victimized,” he said.

Maclean’s said it stands behind the writer of the article, Mark Steyn, and it is confident the human rights commissions will find no merit in the complaint.

Faisal Joseph, a lawyer from the Canadian Islamic Congress who is representing the four students, argued that journalists can’t write just anything.

“You have to be responsible. There are limits on freedom of expression, people seem to forget that,” he said.

* Are there? Guess we need the Muttawa, the Islamic religious police, to enforce those ‘limits’- won’t we?

* But surprise, surprise:

‘This is Canada, not Sudan, Egypt or Pakistan, where the press is stifled.’

—Sohail Raza of the Muslim Canadian Congress
But Sohail Raza, a representative of the Muslim Canadian Congress, said Maclean’s had the right to publish the article.

“This is Canada, not Sudan, Egypt or Pakistan, where the press is stifled,” he said. “There is absolute freedom of expression and people have an opportunity to voice their opinion.”

Alan Borovoy of the Canadian Civil Liberties Association said the organization is concerned about the human rights complaints process.

It’s too easy to claim an article may subject a group to hate or contempt under commission rules, Borovoy said.

“Even truthful articles describing some of the awful situations in this world could run afoul of this law, it is so broad and such a potential threat to freedom of speech,” he said.

* Indeed. And that’s a worry, as we can see above.

*

But it gets better:

Anti Steyn Bigotry Backfires:

* Here’s a far left halfwit who attributes to Steyn quotes that actually came from Norway’s parasitic scumbag Islamofascist Mullah Krekar, who is still not deported. The good mullah sux Norway’s welfare system dry and threatens his hosts that he ‘can’t control’ those angry supporters of his when they start blowing shit up, something that good Muslims are known to do when they get upset with the filthy kuffars, and that’s just about always:

*

* Here Mark Steyn responds to a pretty spectacular screwup by Jim Henley:

Racist is as racist quotes

[Mark Steyn]

Jim Henley  (pictured)  has his say on my present legal woes:

The excerpt from Mark Steyn’s America Alone that ran in Maclean’s last year is far more blatantly racist than I figured it would be when I began reading it. I knew Steyn was a bigot, with a 1920s obsession with demographic decline. (Cf. Tom Buchanan in Gatsby, who can’t stop talking about Rise of the Colored Empires, “by this man Goddard.”) But I imagined Steyn was more adroit in his use of code words and deniability feints. No! “Just look at the development within Europe, where the number of Muslims is expanding like mosquitoes” is merely the most spectacular example of – not code words. I’m not completely shocked that Steyn would write with such frank bigotry, or that Regnery would publish it. I’m somewhat surprised that an establishment organ like Maclean’s would run it.

Nor am I surprised actual existing Muslim Canadians would take offense at the article. The article can’t touch me, an Anglo American, in the same way it can hit the emotions of a Canadian Muslim – it can’t feel as personal to me as it can to them… Mark Steyn is a racist douchebag in addition to being a ridiculous figure…

Etc. The words that so offend him are, indeed “frank bigotry”. However, if you read my racist diatribe, you’ll see the bigotry is not mine but Mullah Krekar’s:

* Norway’s Nightmare: Mullah Krekar, terrorist scum

“We’re the ones who will change you,” the Norwegian imam Mullah Krekar told the Oslo newspaper Dagbladet in 2006. “Just look at the development within Europe, where the number of Muslims is expanding like mosquitoes. Every Western woman in the EU is producing an average of 1.4 children. Every Muslim woman in the same countries is producing 3.5 children.” As he summed it up: “Our way of thinking will prove more powerful than yours.”

Hello, Mr Henley? Anybody home in there? Those are quotation marks, because they’re someone else’s words – not the blatant racism of the racist douchebag Steyn but of a prominent Scandinavian imam. It’s tempting to say to Jim Henley, “Douchebag, douche thyself”, and leave it at that. However, in an attempt to divine his thinking on the subject, I’d like to ask him this:

What is it precisely about this statement that makes it “blatantly racist”? That a Euro-Muslim imam uttered the words? Or that an “Anglo American” (if I can be said to count as such) was culturally insensitive enough to reveal the mullah’s words to a wider audience? Is the problem Krekar’s “frank bigotry”, or “Anglo Americans” boorish enough to let the cat out the bag?

Or, if that’s too much for him, perhaps he could at least issue a clarification.

Race chief cautious on mosque rules

By Paul Pickett/thanks to Mullah

* From the ‘don’t look, don’t tell’ department

* It is almost comical how the soldiers of Allah are trying to pull the wool over infidel eyes and ears, but slowly, gradually the coin drops: there was the ‘Undercover Mosques’ series, where we saw the hatepreachers up close, in their own environment, inciting jihad, sedition and the takeover of the infidel nation state. From Somalia to Australia, from US-mosques to Saudi Arabia, from Germany to the Philippines, we know that mosques are breeding terrorism because jihad terror is fundamental to Islam. But don’t let that deter the ‘good Muslims’ from telling us kuffars that we’ve got it all wrong:

THE head of a race relations watchdog has warned against labelling mosques as potential breeding grounds for terrorism.

Zafar Ali, chairman of Slough Race Equality Council, spoke out as British Muslim leaders announced new guidelines for mosques.

The guidelines are a response to the Government asking Muslim leaders to find ways of curbing extremism and allowing more young people and women into them.

Mr Ali welcomed the involvement of the Muslim community in drawing up the new guidelines.

But he said: “I am always suspicious when people start interfering in the running of religious institutions. I am pleased that these guidelines have come from the Muslim community and this is not Government led.

“It is also worth stressing that it is individuals that cause terrorism, not mosques. People should not be pointing the finger at them. It is only some individuals who frequent them who go on to commit acts of terrorism.”

But critics say that mosques fail to serve communities. Ministers believe mosques could be important in providing a location for extremists to recruit young Muslims.

* Ain’t that the truth, minister!

*
Mr Ali said he welcomed the democratisation of mosques with more women and young people having a say. He said: “I think this is a positive thing, as long as people get involved because they want to serve the community and not because of politics.”

*
* If BS had legs…

Muslims say they want mosques to sign up to a community watchdog, the Mosques and Imams National Advisory Board (Minab) which has powers to carry out spot checks.

* Fox in charge of the chicken coop, who guessed it!

The first mosque in the borough was in 1969 when the Slough Islamic Trust bought land off Montem Lane. The town now has two other mosques in Diamond Road and Stokes Poges Lane.

*

* Too funny, that. When they blow us up they tell us its ‘only a tiny, tiny minority of extremists, misunderstanders of Islam’-, who somehow got their religion wrong, but if you draw a cartoon of Muhammad the combined ummah of 1.3 gazillion Muslims goes apes#*t they will tell you the mosques have ‘nothing to do with it- nothing at all. My foot.

* Curiously, we have this essay here from an ex -Muslim, who sees it quite differently:

What is a mosque? A simple place of worship?

No. There is ample evidence that mosques are monuments of Islamic conquest. Mosques are symbols of Arab Imperialism and supremacy. Mosques, as we can see around the world, are centers for plotting and subversion, they are used as bunkers and places for weapons storage. Mosques are fortresses in the Dar al Harb, bastions in the land of the infidels which is yet to be conquered for Islam. Mosques are indoctrination centers and will encourage the soldiers of Allah to wage violent jihad against infidels and Jews.

“Moderate, secular, modern Turkey”- isn’t that what the spin doctors would have you believe?

* It was ‘secular’ Turkey’s PM Erdogan who famously said that „the minarets are our bayonets, the domes our helmets, the mosques our barracks. The French scholar of Islam, Anne-Marie Delcambre, found the phrase so telling that she chose to end her useful short study, „L‚Islam des interdits, with that quote from Erdogan, that demonstrates that mosques are not peaceful places of contemplation and private worship, but places from which war is made on the Infidels. “Les minarets sont nos baionnettes, les coupoles nos casques et les mosquees nos casernes.

* “The restrictions on wearing the Islamic scarf in public life have a negative impact on the freedom of the believers.”

* ‘Turkey moves on head scarves’- turnspeak and obfuscation. What’s really happening here is that the Islamofascists around Erdogan & Ghul are turning the clock back. They are ‘liberating’ the believing Muslims to whack the not so fanatcal believers into submission. Masters of taqiyya, these advocates of Islamic ‘freedom under the sharia’-.

* Won’t be long now before Turkey becomes a caliphate, the ‘Islamic Republic of Turkey’ seems inevitable.

Plans to ease headscarf ban in Turkey

* Anti-Islamofascistic Demo in Istanbul earlier this year

Turkey’s ruling AK Party, which has Islamist roots, signalled plans to ease a ban on the wearing of the Islamic headscarf in universities under a new draft constitution.

*
“This (new) constitution will solve the headscarf problem in a more libertarian spirit,” Dengir Firat, a deputy chairman of the AK Party, told CNN Turk television.
No compulsion in religion. But again, what about in lack of religion?

The AK Party is due to publish its draft constitution on December 15.

*
It has said the draft, due to replace a text dating back to a time of military rule in the 1980s, will boost individual freedoms in Turkey, a European Union candidate.
Firat said the government wanted a wider debate about the principles and aims of the new constitution, adding that opponents were trying to whip up secularist fears artificially by concentrating solely on the headscarf issue.

“The headscarf is an extension of freedom of belief,” he said.

* So is not wearing a headscarf. Would that preference be honored if the Islamists had their way? That is at the root of the secularists’ concerns.

Update: Turkey investigates reported ties between police, alleged killers of Christians 

Let them into the EU. That’ll fix everything.

An update on this story. “Turkey Investigates Alleged Ties Between Police, Alleged Killers of Christians,” from the Associated Press:

ANKARA, Turkey — Turkey has launched an investigation into alleged collusion between police officers and at least one of the suspects charged with killing three Christians earlier this year at a publishing house that produces Bibles, an official said Saturday.
Two senior police inspectors will be assigned to investigate whether any officers provided assistance to the suspects, an Interior Ministry official said on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media. He did not provide further details.

*
The three Christians — a German and two Turks — were killed in the southern city of Malatya on April 18. The killings — in which the victims were tied up and had their throats slit — drew international condemnation and added to Western concerns about whether Turkey can protect its religious minorities.

*
Five people were arrested and charged with murder. The trial opened last month, but was quickly adjourned until Jan. 14 because defense attorneys requested more time to prepare their arguments.
The Interior Ministry decided to open an investigation after several newspapers published stories Saturday alleging cooperation between police and at least one of the suspects.

Basra jihadists threaten women: “Whoever disobeys will be punished. God is our witness that we have conveyed this message”

“Islam elevates women.” (But the “elevator” only has a “down” button.)

“Basra women fear militants behind wave of killings,”

from Reuters:

BASRA, Iraq (Reuters) – Women in Iraq’s southern city of Basra are living in fear. More than 40 have been killed and their bodies dumped in the streets in the past five months for behavior deemed un-Islamic, the city’s police chief says.
A warning scrawled in red on a wall threatens any woman who wears makeup or appears in public without an Islamic headscarf with dire punishment.

*
“Whoever disobeys will be punished. God is our witness that we have conveyed this message,” it says. ‘God willing there won’t be any girl left in the university without wearing a headscarf’.”

* Freedom, baby. Freedom to spread Islam. Hijab is freedom. The real thingy….

Iraq: Basra’s Islamic Militias tell Christian Women to Cover up or Face Death….

From the Islamic tolerance department

On her first day at Basra University this year a man came up to Zeena, a 21-year-old Christian woman, and three other Christian girls and ordered them to cover their heads with a hijab, or Islamic headscarf.

“We didn’t listen to him, and thought he might just be some extremist student representing only himself,” she said. The next day Zeena and two of her friends returned to class with uncovered heads.

This time a man in the black clothes of the Shia militia stopped them at the entrance and took them aside. “He said, ‘We asked you yesterday to wear a hijab, so why are you and your friends not covering your hair?’. He was talking very aggressively and I was scared,” Zeena recalled.

The girls explained that they were Christians and that their faith did not call for headscarves. “He said: ‘Outside this university you are Christian and can do what you want; inside you are not. Next time I want to see you wearing a hijab or I swear to God the three of you will be killed immediately’,” Zeena recalled. Terrified, the girls ran home. They now wear the headscarf all the time.

Canada falls for Islamofascist crapola

Parliament Declares October As Islamic History Month

Just in case you missed it:

“That*,* in the opinion of the House, due to the important contributions of Canadian Muslims to Canadian Society; the cultural diversity of the Canadian Muslim community; the importance of Canadians learning about each other to foster greater social cohesion; and the important effort now underway in many Canadian communities in organizing public activities to achieve better understanding of Islamic history, the month of October should be designated Canadian Islamic History Month.”

ACHIEVEMENTS OF ISLAMIC SCIENTIFIC HERITAGE BELONG TO ALL

The science of charting the Earth’s lands and waters was of primary importance to Muslim navigators, for next to faith itself and one’s obedience to it, commerce and travel fed the social economy and thus governed people’s daily lives.

In addition to improving the astrolabe (without which no Western mariner would feel safe on the open seas for centuries to come), Muslims were the first to apply the principle of magnetism to marine and land travel, perhaps as early as the 9th and 10th centuries …

MUSLIMS ARE CIVILIZATION BUILDERS

Muslim Civilization Builders

By
Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry

* For the good professor there is no civilization except besides the destructive, barbaric cult of Islam, which from the outset has done nothing other than rape, pilfer and destroy every culture and civilization in its way that was historically good and far more advanced, over a millennium and a half.

* Here you can read how this demented propagandist throws dirt on our culture and heritage and makes absurd claims in order to make his cult look palatable. But you can’t make chicken salad out of chicken shit, professor. You can’t. We got your number, don’t call us….

Ayaan in the New York Times

Ayaan Hirsi Ali

It is often said that Islam has been “hijacked” by a small extremist group of radical fundamentalists. The vast majority of Muslims are said to be moderates.

But where are the moderates?

Please Help Save Ayaan Hirsi Ali 

Despite being promised protection by the Dutch, the Netherlands has decided to stop footing the bill for her security. Ali, having obviously since withdrawn from parliament, now resides in Washington, where she has been all but abandoned. In spite of this, she continues to be perhaps the strongest, most eloquent and certainly the most determined advocate of free speech and women’s rights in the Islamic world that still draws breath.

Though her bravery may be limitless, her security detail is definitely not. Ali must now pay for her security measures by herself. If she cannot afford to defend herself against those Muslim fanatics destined to bring her to justice for her apostasy, she is essentially consigned to the fate of Theo van Gogh. It is because of this that I ask you, the reader, to stand up to this savage bullying and defend free speech by donating whatever you can afford to her security trust.

Here we have a person who has been through more than any of us will in an entire lifetime. She has had to fight tooth and nail for the very freedoms we just assume upon birth. Ayaan Hirsi Ali has been combating a war on terror since before we were born. All she asks now is to speak her mind without fear of death.

Is that too much to ask?

Religion of Tolerance & Diversity hates competition

Indonesia: Islamic groups secure closure of two churches

Fear of competition rather than confidence in the power of their message. Evidence of a tottering, bankrupt ideology.

JAKARTA, December 3 (Compass Direct News) – Attacking the house of a Baptist pastor and protesting the presence of a Catholic temple, radical Muslim groups got authorities to close down two churches in the past two weeks.

*
In Banten province, extremists from the Islamic Defender Forces (Front Pembela Islam, or FPI) on November 21 attacked the Tangerang home of the Rev. Bedali Hulu, pastor at Jakarta Christian Baptist Church (GKBJ), kicking out doors and windows, breaking glass and throwing the pastor’s belongings from the house. The church had been meeting in the pastor’s home.

At the time of the attack, only the pastor’s mother-in-law and a member of the church, Temaziduhu Laoli, were in the house, located at Perumahan Permata Sepatan, Desa Pisangan Jaya in Tangerang. Habib Muhammad Assegaf led the attack.

As a result of the attack and objections to the church, Rev. Hulu met with Pisangan Jaya village leaders on November 22 – with the result that officials asked him to leave the territory until tensions cooled. Activities at the church, which has a permit and is registered with Religious Affairs authorities, came to a halt.

“It’s okay for a while, but I’ll be back,” said Rev. Hulu. His wife and his mother-in-law were allowed to remain in their house.

America Celebrates Diversity:

From Weasel Zippers:

The Muslim holiday of Eid commemorates the Battle of Badr, in which Mohmmed’s Islamic forces defeated the pagan army from Mecca. Question: If there’s a stamp for Eid, then why doesn’t the USPS issue one for the Crusades?….

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Postal Service is expanding its Holiday Celebrations Series with a new stamp highlighting the Muslim holiday of Eid.

“This is a proud moment for the Postal Service, the Muslim community, and Americans in general as we issue a postage stamp to honor and commemorate two important Islamic celebrations,” said Azeezaly S. Jaffer, Vice President, Public Affairs and Communications for the Postal Service, who will dedicate the stamp. “The Eid stamp will help us highlight the business, educational and social contributions of the estimated six to seven million Muslims in this country whose cultural heritage has become an integral part of the fabric of this great nation.”

Hague: New committee demands respect for Islam

* These f*kers have to to be told in no uncertain terms that respect has to be earned and not demanded. Besides: as long as they make no attempt to stop their insulting behavior towards infidels and Jooozzz they should be told to pack up and ship out:

Mo-homo-hammed as art

*
Twenty Islamic organizations joined together in the Hague on Tuesday to demand respect for Islam, after the municipal museum intended to show an exhibition by Iranian Sooreh Hera showing homosexuals with masks of the prophet Mohammed.

According to the Muslim committee “Respect for you and me”, the museum was right in withdrawing the exhibition because the pictures were offending and polarizing. MuseumGoudA, the municipal museum of Gouda, has meanwhile announced it will exhibit the pictures. According to director Ranti Tjan, “Art cannot be rejected for political reasons”.

The committee will check if the statement by PVV leader Geert Wilders about Islam can be legally challenged. “Respect for you and me” also intends to fight against insulting statements for Muslims by other people.

Muslims are trading respect for fear

* Respect is not a right. Almost anything one can think of these days is, supposedly, a right, and judging from the angry demands on all sides for respect, one might easily be bamboozled into thinking respect is somehow a right as well. Not so, rightly not.

Freedom of speech is the keystone of western civilisation, of individuality, of scientific discovery, of wealth and of democracy; without it, the entire edifice would collapse.

Indeed it is arguable that it has been the lack of freedom of speech, along with an excessive respect for authority and religion, that has for centuries held back and impoverished the once great (?) civilisation military machine of Islam. Faiz Siddiqi’s call for a change of culture is indeed nothing less, and a very destructive and retrograde one at that.

Why We Cannot Rely on Moderate Muslims

* A Fjordman exclusive from the Gates of Vienna

The northern Virginia-based Muslim Students’ Association (MSA) might easily be taken for a benign student religious group. At a meeting in Queensborough Community College in New York in March 2003, a guest speaker named Faheed declared, “We reject the U.N., reject America, reject all law and order. Don’t lobby Congress or protest because we don’t recognize Congress. The only relationship you should have with America is to topple it … Eventually there will be a Muslim in the White House dictating the laws of Shariah.”

So, what happened to the famous “moderate Muslims” in all this? That’s a question writer Robert Spencer asks, too. Imam Siraj Wahaj is in great demand as a speaker. In 1991, he even became the first Muslim to give an invocation to the U.S. Congress.

* Scum, pure scum.

However, he has also warned that the United States will fall unless it “accepts the Islamic agenda.” He has lamented that “if only Muslims were clever politically, they could take over the United States and replace its constitutional government with a caliphate.” In the early 1990s he sponsored talks by Sheikh Omar Abdel Rahman in mosques in New York City and New Jersey; Rahman was later convicted for conspiring to blow up the World Trade Center in 1993, and Wahaj was designated a “potential unindicted co-conspirator.”
