Stressed out ‘observer’

* What Ä°hsanoÄŸlu really means to say, is: “we are watching you. If you keep telling the truth about Islam we will eliminate you. We are prepared to  use any means to shut you up.

* Fitzgerald: Definition of Islamophobia

 * Spencer: If Ä°hsanoÄŸlu really wants to rectify Islam’s image, he should start by rectifying things like this. But instead, he and the OIC continue to pretend that any concerns non-Muslims may have over an Islamic cleric proclaiming that “we will rule the world, as has been said by the Prophet Muhammad” are simply manifestations of “Islamophobia.” That in itself reveals a great deal about the real agenda of Ä°hsanoÄŸlu and the OIC.

Excellent observation from JW poster JSLA:

There’s something parasitic about the way Muslims exploit Western social mechanisms. We all know that Islam teaches Muslims to despise “infidels” and especially Jews. They truly hate us, and expend great energy in devaluing and dehumanizing us. So when they observe the success of our “infidel” society, and especially the success of Jews within our society, their notions of our dirtiness and our unworthiness in the eyes of their Allah must truly wrankle. They sum it up to “image”, as if our prowess and superiority could only be a matter of superficial appearances, nothing more. They observe the Jew successfully navigating in the “infidel” West, and can only imagine his successes, since he is but worthless subhuman scum, can only be accounted for by manipulation of media propaganda, cleverly crafted “image” campaigns, and legal browbeating to legislate special protections through mechanisms like the various “antidefamation” outfits which exist.

Being history’s all-time plunderers and parasites, just like the original Arab vagabond who invented their heinous “religion”, Muslims have set about imitating what, in their fevered imaginations, constitutes the social mechanisms in the West which permit us to project that “image” of success and superiority which puts their abject failures in stark relief. Since (in their ruined minds) their Islamic society is vastly superior to ours in every way, our successes can only be a clever illusion, a parlor trick of epic proportions.

I do not believe that Islamic society can imagine or contemplate the truth of the situation. They have a society which offers nothing to the world but terrorism, totalitarian nightmares, human degradation, and misery. If not for the accident of oil, I have no doubt that the panIslamic world today would be at or near the absolute bottom of human society. But the wealth which has flowed into their undeserving hands for the last 6-7 decades now funds the largest expansion of their Islamic cancer since Islam’s invention nearly 1400 years ago. Today they spend vast sums to wage Jihad, to insinuate themselves into our society where they then set about the systematic subversion of our society. They actually lack imagination sufficient to contemplate the truth about their complete horribleness, or to comprehend why our society is superior to theirs in every way. Islam forbids it. But Islam’s creed requires them to profess its superiority in every gesture, every expression, despite reality. For this reason they retain a just sufficient quantity of imagination to think that if they simply ape our social mechanisms, the ones which they construe as responsible for projecting our clever lies, then they too can accomplish all that we have done. Muslims can’t handle the substance of the argument, but now hold vast hordes of cash to hire Madison Avenue to do their bidding and polish the turd of Islam into a high gloss.

Has there ever been a more loutish, a more lazy, a more deluded society than theirs? I know many Westerners fear angering Muslims, fear enraging their hatred and fury, by simply pointing out their inferiority. But I believe we will do much in winning against our Muslim enemy by shattering his delusional and grandiose sense of self. Simply holding up a mirror, and revealing Islam’s utter and complete horribleness does make the Muslim murderously angry, but it also rubs his filth in his face in a manner which will eventually destroy him through sheer humiliation and depression.

Once  those ” Observatories” get installed, the “islamophobia” one will be totally forgotten, since more hatred is directed at those groups mentioned above than to Muslims. Oh, and the majority of said hatred comes from muslims.

California Schoolbooks: “Jihad = Inner Struggle”

An Islamic “jihad” is an effort by Muslims to convince “others to take up worthy causes, such as funding medical research,” according to a middle school textbook used in California and other states.

And even at its most violent, “jihad” simply is Muslims fighting “to protect themselves from those who would do them harm,” says the “History Alive! The Medieval World and Beyond” book published by Teachers’ Curriculum Institute.

But a parent whose child has been handed the text in a Sacramento district is accusing the publisher of a pro-Muslim bias to the point that Islamic theology has been incorporated into the public school teachings.

“It makes an attempt to seem like an egalitarian world history book, but on closer inspection you find that seven (not all are titled so) of the chapters deal with Islam or Muslim subjects,” wrote the parent, whose name was being withheld, in a letter to WND.

“The upsetting part is not only do they go into the history (which would be acceptable) but also the teaching of Islam,” she said. “This book does not really go into Christianity or the teachings of Christ, nor does it address religious doctrine elsewhere to the degree it does Islam.”

She said the book’s one page referencing Jews “is only to convey that they were tortured by Crusaders to get them to convert to ‘Christianity.’ (It fails to mention that the biggest persecutors of Jews throughout history and still today are Arab Muslims). It gives four other one-liner references to the Jews being blamed for the plagues and problems in the land. It does not talk about the Jews as making a significant impact on the culture at large.”

“How can the writers of this text get away with this?” she asked.

* Indeed. How can they?

*  It gets worse, much worse. Read it all…

Geert Wilders: as usual under heavy police protection

Anti-immigration MP Geert Wilders has cancelled the first of a series of debates on the ‘islamisation of the Netherlands’ because not enough Muslims have agreed to attend, news agency ANP reports on Friday.

* Interesting: for the first time Wilders is not described as a ‘far right’ politician, but as “Anti-immigration”

Wilders pledged discussions on the issue as a follow-up to his anti-Koran film Fitna, which links Islam with violence and terrorism.

Of the 175 people who signed up for the debate in Waddinxveen on May 16, only a handful are Muslims, says ANP.

* Here we go again: Muslims know they can’t win in a debate. That’s why they’re so eager to terrorize and intimidate and finally murder those who oppose the spread of Islam…

‘This is not enough for a constructive and open debate on the real dangers of the islamisation of the Netherlands and the failure of immigration and integration politics of the past decade,’ says Wilders’ PVV party in a statement. The party has nine seats in the 150-seat parliament.

Six imams and a local politician turned down an invitation to appear at the debate because they were “not allowed to contribute to the agenda and their call for an independent chairman was rejected”, says ANP.

Imam Yassin Elforkani told ANP that Wilders was not prepared to give Muslims any influence over the meeting in line with normal procedures. ‘Wilders wants to do everything himself. He does not want a balanced debate,’ said Elforkani.

“It is not possible that a country could want to join the European Union while its army is occupying the territory of another EU country”

So says French Prime Minister Francois Fillon. But actually it is quite possible that a country could want to join the European Union while its army is occupying the territory of another EU country. And it is also possible, although Fillon has suddenly “recalled” this, that the EU, cowed, defensive, lacking any sense of itself, supine and already half-dhimmified, will agree.

“Turkey: Fillon Recalls French Reasons For ‘No’ To Accession,”

from ANSAmed,

NICOSIA, MAY 9 – French Prime Minister Francois Fillon, on a work visit in Cyprus, recalled today that his country opposes the accession of Turkey to the EU mainly due to the occupation by the Turkish army of the northern part of the island. The French prime minister told a joint news conference with Cypriot President Demetris Christofias that “it is not possible that a country could want to join the European Union while its army is occupying the territory of another EU country”. “The accession of Turkey to the EU is not a good solution,” Fillon said adding that “still today there are many obstacles for similar accession. A privileged partnership between the EU and this large country Turkey is a necessary stage”. Christofias said he was hoping for a “bi zonal and bi communal” solution to the question of Cyprus, divided since the summer of 1974 after a Turkish military invasion which followed a failed coup made by Greek Cypriot nationalists willing to annex the island to Greece. Fillon arrived this morning in Nicosia for a 24-hour visit under the preparation for the term of French presidency of the EU which starts on July 1, 2008.

Cyprus: MP stresses need to combat Islamophobia

18-04-2008

 

Cyprus Mail: 

AKEL deputy Andros Kyprianou, head of the Cyprus delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, has called on European governments to address growing Islamophobia faced by Muslim communities face in Europe. 

Addressing the Assembly, Kyprianou noted a marked increase in this “dangerous phenomenon” recently and stressed the need to investigate the reasons that lead to such “unacceptable behaviour.” 

“Several terrorist attacks in Europe over the past few years have opened Pandora’s Box and have created a so-called Islamophobia,” Kyprianou said. 

This, he continued, “means that Islam in many people’s mind is linked with the religion of Muslim terrorists, something which is wrong.” 

* Read the Koran and the hadith, asshole!

Kyprianou pointed out that it is of crucial importance for European governments to ensure that immigrants participate in the life of the country they are residing to be part of society and not feel marginalised. 

“It is our duty to clarify that the religion of Islam has nothing to do with Muslim terrorists,” he said, and added that “the member states of the Council of Europe have to act rapidly and effectively in order to combat all forms of discrimination and especially the dangerous phenomenon of Islamophobia.”

Anti-Dhimmitude in Germany: Muslim girl can’t skip swimming lessons

A Muslim girl in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia cannot skip co-ed swimming lessons because of religious prohibitions against wearing formfitting clothing, a German court ruled on Wednesday.

The administrative court in Düsseldorf ruled that the state’s responsibility to educate the girl outweighed the potential infringement on her religious freedom.

After they had terrorised the caretaker for doing the work of foreigners, they collected floor mats and desks to light bonfires inside the classrooms. Then they gathered all the dog-eared exercise books and school textbooks that they could find and threw them into the flames.

After a year’s respite the Taleban has returned to attacking schools and intimidating teachers across much of the south and east of the country. Schoolbooks, regarded as a threat to the Taleban’s grip on the minds of young Afghans, are a particular target.

There are very few people inside or outside the government who have worked harder or thought more deeply about how jihadists use online media, drawing on the original Arabic sources rather than from second and third-hand conjecture.”

Canuckistan: Islamic group calls newspaper cartoon a hate crime

“Under the Criminal Code of Canada, a hate crime is committed to intimidate, harm or terrify an entire group of people to which the victim belongs. The victims are targeted for who they are, not because of anything they have done.”

“Every Muslim should be a terrorist”

Indian cleric Ashraf Mohamedy in a public address which aired on Peace TV on April 22, 2008 advocates for Sharia law in America among many other things: 

 Highlights from the sermon:

Allah has instructed us to follow the hijab, so that women can be saved from rape and molestation. In Islam, there is capital punishment for the rapist. Whenever we say this to non-Muslim brothers, they react by saying that Islam is a cruel law, that it is a barbaric law. But believe me, Islamic law gets results. […]

If the Islamic Shari’a is applied in America, if every man, whenever he sees a woman, would lower his gaze, if every woman is asked to cover herself completely, except for the face and hands up to the wrist, and if there is capital punishment for the rapist – will the rate of crime go up, remain the same, or come down in America? Of course it will come down! Islam gives dignity and protection to the women in Islam, and that is just the reason why Islam has prescribed the hijab. […]

I would stress that every Muslim should be a terrorist. I repeat: Every Muslim should be a terrorist. A terrorist is a person who terrifies others, who terrorizes others. That is precisely the reason we have the police. As soon as the robber sees the policeman, he is terrified, he is terrorized. Similarly, the Muslims should terrorize the anti-social elements in society. He should terrorize the robber, the decoy, the rapist. I know that “terrorist” is taken as a concept of a person who terrorizes the common man. But we Muslims should be terrorists for the anti-social elements in society.

Anyone dare to take a guess on who he figures are the worlds anti-social elements?

Saudi fundamentalist cleric’s fatal ruling

JOEL BRINKLEY

If you want to understand why murderous Islamic extremists still pour out of the Middle East, consider a small drama under way in Saudi Arabia right now.
A few weeks ago, one of the nation’s most senior religious authorities directed that two reporters for a mainstream Saudi newspaper be executed for publishing stories suggesting that religions other than Islam are worthy of respect. In Saudi Arabia, malefactors are beheaded by sword, as the nation calls the punishment, often in public, outside a mosque just after Friday prayers. By official count, authorities beheaded 151 people last year.

So far, the two reporters, Abdullah bin Bejad al-Otaibi and Yousef Aba al-Khail, have not been put under the sword. They are still working at their newspaper, Al Riyadh. But they are reported to be terrified, and they have called on the government for protection. It has not responded, and the other Saudi papers have barely even mentioned the controversy.
None of this comes as much of a surprise to Saudi Arabia experts.
In some ways it’s routine. Last week, as an example, a Saudi appeals court agreed to hear the case of a Turkish barber who was sentenced to death by sword for taking the Lord’s name in vain in his barbershop one afternoon.
But the debate over the reporters offers a window into Saudi thinking and helps explain why so many Saudis dedicate themselves to anti-Western jihads. If a respected religious authority calls for the execution of someone who simply suggests that people holding other faiths deserve respect, doesn’t that tell Saudis that the lives of Christians, Jews, Hindu and Buddhists are of lesser value?
Abdul-Rahman al-Barrak, a 75-year-old sheikh, issued the fatwa calling for the journalists’ death. In Saudi Arabia, he is a leading authority on Wahhabism, the country’s fundamentalist form of Sunni Islam.
“It’s disgraceful that articles containing this kind of apostasy should be published in some papers in Saudi Arabia,” he wrote last month. If the reporters do not repent, they “should be killed,” he wrote.

Barrak is not just some cranky old miscreant. He is a member of the Saudi legislature, appointed by the king. Barrak spent a long career in senior positions at a respected government-funded university.

Soon after, 20 other senior Saudi clerics stood up to enthusiastically endorse Barrak’s fatwa. Later, about 100 human-rights advocates from across the region condemned the edict, calling it intellectual terrorism. That had little visible impact in Riyadh.
But a striking feature of this episode is that the Saudi government has not said or done anything about it – probably because King Abdullah realizes that many and perhaps most members of Saudi Arabia’s religious establishment agree with Barrak. After all, two weeks after he issued that fatwa, the legislature soundly defeated a proposal, favored by the Arab League, to adopt a law promoting respect for other religions. The vote was 77-33.

Still, Abdullah could not possibly have forgotten the world outrage that greeted the Saudi court decision last fall to administer 200 lashes to a 20-year-old woman who had been gang raped. The White House called this outrageous, and Abdullah eventually had to pardon the woman.
But even if he were so inclined, the king cannot easily interfere with a religious edict – especially one issued by a member of his own government. So instead, he issued a tepid appeal for an international inter-faith dialogue between Muslims, Christians and Jews “to help end inter-religious tensions,” the Saudi government said.
No details were provided. Right away, though, one of Israel’s chief rabbis, Yona Metzger, announced that “our hand is outstretched to any peace initiative and any dialogue that is intended to bring an end to terror and violence.” So far, however, Metzger remains empty-handed.

Barrak’s history is littered with pronouncements that many in the West would consider outrageous. A few years ago he decreed that Sunni Muslims not only had the right but also the duty to kill Shiite Muslims who openly practice their faith. (Among Saudi fundamentalists, talking about killing Shiites is a popular intellectual blood sport.)
More recently, Barrak was the lead signatory on a religious edict urging Saudi men to fight “the joint venture by the crusaders” and the Shia “to further their greedy designs” on Iraq. The Shiite goal, the edict added, was “to protect the occupying Jews and to besiege Sunnis throughout the region.”
Others signing this missive last year included university deans and presidents as well as judges and senior government officials.

Once again, not surprisingly, the king had nothing to say.
