* By now, most people know that Muhammad married Aisha when she was 6 and consummated the marriage when she was 9. Not too many people know about the other wives of the lecherous Muhammad, so we will present you every week with another episode of Muhammad’s philandering:

Mariyah:

 The Coptic Sex Slave of the Prophet

Mariyah was working at the service of Hafsa, daughter of Umar who was one of Muhammad’s wives. One-day Muhammad went to Hafsa’s house and upon setting gaze at Mariyah, decides to have intercourse with her. To get rid of Hafsa, he concocted a lie. He told her that her father Umar had wanted to meet her.  When Hafsa left, Muhammad took Mariyah to bed and had intercourse with her. Upon seeing her father and being assured that he had not sent for her,  Hafsa, returned home to find the door locked from inside. She sat behind the closed door until her illustrious husband finished his business with her maid. When the door was opened and Muhammad came out, she notices sweet dripping from his face and realized what he had been up to. She becomes hysteric, complaining that he had tricked so he could enjoy her maid in her bed. Muhammad pleads with her to calm down and to placate her he promised not to sleep with Mariah again and bade her not to divulge that secret to others.

Hafsa unable to keep the secret relayed everything to her friend Aisha who also turned against Muhammad and these two young ladies, jointly with his other wives, caused him much anguish.  Muhammad decided to punish all of his wives by not sleeping with them for one month.  Depriving one’s wives sexually and beating them are other forms of punishment recommended in the Quran. Q.4:34.

The rebellion of his wives for having sex with a maid angered the Prophet of Allah who vowed not to sleep with any of them for one month.  That of course would have been too much hardship for the beloved messenger of Allah.  Therefore the maker of the Universe, in his mercy intervened and reveals the Sura Tahrim (Banning). In this Sura, Allah lovingly “rebukes” his prophet for being so hard on himself and for depriving himself from what he really likes and has been made lawful to him, just to placate his wives.

* The state department is not allowed to use the JIHAD word any longer, according to the almighty secretary of state, Condoleezza Rice.  So CNN puts exclamation marks around it, you see: it may not really be ‘jihadist’ material, perhaps it was just some Mickey Mouse cartoons depicting Muslims and Islam in a bad light:

By Frederik Pleitgen
For CNN

BERLIN, Germany (CNN) — German police conducted a series of raids across the country Wednesday as part of their investigation into nine citizens suspected of systematically trying to convert others to radical Islam.

Anton Winkler, spokesman for the Munich state prosecutor, said the suspects ranged in age from 27 to 47.

More than 130 officers fanned out across several cities, including Berlin and Bonn, searching houses and looking for illegal “jihadist” propaganda.

Prosecutors said the suspects had ties to an Islamic center in Neu-Ulm, a small township in southern Germany.

The Multi-Kultur-Haus was shut down in 2005 after authorities seized material urging Muslims to carry out suicide attacks in Iraq.

In September, German authorities arrested two German citizens who had converted to Islam and a Turkish resident who they said were in the advanced stages of plotting a bombing attack. The trio attended the Islamic center.

UK: Misunderstanders of Islam had ‘Jihad Papers’, wherein it is written: ‘defeating the enemy means striking “terror into their hearts”

JW Link

Material supporting jihad and martyrdom operations was found at the home of a man accused of plotting to blow up aircraft, a court has heard.

One document found at Abdulla Ahmed Ali’s flat in Walthamstow, east London, said no deed would give “rewards” like an act of jihad, jurors were told.

Another said defeating the enemy meant striking “terror into their hearts”, Woolwich Crown Court heard.

Eight men deny conspiring to murder and endangering planes in August 2006.

* They were only following the teachings of the profit Muhammad, they are completely innocent!

They are accused of planning to detonate home-made bombs disguised as soft drinks on several transatlantic flights.

‘Psychology of war’

The court was shown photographs of the six-day search at the home of Mr Ali, 27, on 9 August 2006.

Jurors were told police found papers containing passages relating to jihad [holy war], martyrdom, references to the kuffar [non-believers] and achieving jannah [paradise].

One read: “No deed is better than jihad and no deed will give you such rewards and rectify you.”

Another said: “The psychology of war is that you can defeat your enemy if you take away that which they love the most and strike terror into their hearts.

“With martyrdom operations they achieve that as the most beloved thing is life and wealth. When your enemy is not scared to die it scares you.”

Other material, including books on the life of the Prophet Mohammed, a guide on disabled access to sites in London, a chemistry textbook and banking documents, was also found, prosecutors said.

Earlier, shop worker Showkoth Uddin told the court how he wrapped up four glass measuring jars bought by another of the defendants.

The prosecution claims Arafat Waheed Khan, 26, also of Walthamstow, east London, bought the items, as well as syringes and needles, at John Bell & Croyden pharmacy in central London in July 2006 in preparation for the alleged airline bomb plot.

Another of the shop’s employees, Adbul Rahman, said Mr Khan re-visited the pharmacy the following day to return the four glass jars and instead bought two 250ml conical jars.

The defendants are Mr Ali, Mr Khan, Assad Sarwar, 24, of High Wycombe, Bucks, Tanvir Hussain, 27, of Leyton, east London, and Waheed Zaman, 23, of Walthamstow, east London.

Also charged are Mohammed Gulzar, 26, of Barking, east London, Ibrahim Savant, 27, of Stoke Newington, north London, and Umar Islam, 29, of Plaistow, east London.

The trial continues.

* Mind-blowing stupidity and pandering left and right of the Atlantic:

“…America has no permanent enemies, because we harbor no permanent hatreds,”

Condoleeza Rice has approved a new lexicon for State Department usage, absolutely forbidding the use of the terms “jihad” and “jihadist” by any State Department official.

* Piccaninni in the Rye

The argument, of course, is the old Streusand/Guirard claim that by using the word jihad, we’re validating the jihadist claim to be waging jihad. Of course, it’s ridiculous to think that the U.S. State Department carries any validating authority within the Islamic world to determine what is Islam and what isn’t. This would be the first time that unbelievers have set the meaning of Islamic theology for Muslims.

Also, the claim is that by using the word “jihad,” we are insulting the peaceful Muslims who are waging the daily jihad of the struggle against sin, the struggle against the dirty dishes, etc. And that’s great, if that’s what any Muslim actually believes is the sum and substance of jihad, but it is an understanding of jihad that is at odds with the Qur’an, the Sunnah, and all the schools of Islamic jurisprudence. Will Muslims be insulted by a reference to other Muslims using the traditional primary meaning of jihad? Answer: probably. But that doesn’t negate the traditional status of that meaning, or the influence of that traditional view in the Islamic world.

* Griffith University likened to Islamic madrassas
* Judge says uni is Islamic vehicle
* Uni sought mysterious Saudi Arabian grants

Richard Kerbaj/The Australian

A JUDGE has likened Griffith University to hardline Islamic “madrassas” in Pakistan – notorious for breeding radicals – and accused the Queensland institution of promoting a Muslim ideology espoused by Osama bin Laden.

Queensland District Court judge Clive Wall also accused Griffith of becoming an “agent” through which the Saudi Arabian embassy was propagating extreme Islam.

Judge Wall, a deputy judge advocate-general in the Australian Defence Force holding the rank of air commodore, told The Australian it was clear what brand of Islam the university would be teaching through its Saudi-funded Islamic Research Unit.

“It would have to be Wahabism, similar to many of the madrassas in Pakistan who receive funding from Saudi Arabia,” he said.

* It certainly is: the Korans and the glossy brochures from Griffith which the slick little da’awa doctor Abdalla distributes are printed on behalf of king Fahd himself.

*

At least three of the suicide bombers responsible for the 2005 London bombings – which killed 56 people – attended Pakistani madrassas, which are considered indoctrination centres for Islamic extremism.

The Australian revealed yesterday that Griffith asked the Saudi embassy in Australia for a $1.37m grant for its Islamic Research Unit, even telling the ambassador that certain elements of the controversial deal could be kept a secret.

It was also revealed through documents that Griffith – described by vice-chancellor Ian O’Connor as the “university of choice” for Saudis – offered the embassy a chance to “discuss” ways in which the money could be used.

The Australian first revealed in September that Griffith had received a $100,000 Saudi grant.

Griffith Islamic Research Unit director Mohamad Abdalla has rejected accusations the Saudi funding would be used to promote Wahabism, saying his centre was opposed to the hardline ideology and in favour of “moderate” Islam.

* Abdallah is a well trained da’awa doctor and an agent of Islamintern. He was featured here previously.

But Judge Wall yesterday accused Griffith of becoming a Saudi stooge. “They’re using the university as an agent to promote their bigoted brand of Islam,” he said. “I’m concerned that a country which doesn’t itself tolerate freedom of religion is promoting its own quite bigoted version here with the acquiescence of our learning institutions.”

This is the first time Judge Wall, who was appointed to the District Court in 1996, has publicly declared his views about the threat of Wahabism and aired his concerns about the Saudi Government’s connections.

Asked why he wanted to weigh in on the topic of Saudi funding, he said: “Like many people, I follow what’s out there around the world and I was just concerned in particular about the source of the funding being Saudi Arabia. I’m concerned that a university which is in my area is not being entirely frank about what it’s doing.”

Judge Wall accused Griffith’s management of being being “naive” in accepting Saudi funds, which have historically been linked to the propagation of fundamentalism.

The Saudi Government – largely through its embassy – is believed to have funnelled at least $120m into Australia since the 1970s to bankroll radical clerics, build mosques and propagate hardline Islam.

“I don’t think the university should be involved in any way with these people,” Judge Wall said.

Asked whether Griffith should return its Saudi grant, Judge Wall said: “That’s a matter for the university, but I just think that they’re being very naive at best and very greedy at worst.

“They (Saudis) are not being simply altruistic,” he said. “They don’t give anything for benevolent reasons, there’s always something behind it.”

September’s report in The Australian prompted Judge Wall to inquire about the nature of the fund and how it was intended to be used.

He wrote to Ross Homel – then director of Griffith’s key Centre for Ethics, Law, Justice and Governance, which manages the Islamic unit – raising questions about the branch of Islam the university wanted to propagate.

“You have said that the Saudi grant to the Griffith Islamic Research Unit will be used to promote ‘moderate Islam’,” says Judge Wall in the letter obtained by The Australian.

“What do you mean by ‘moderate Islam’ and what do you understand is the difference between moderate Islam and Wahabi Islam or Wahab-ism (sic) or ‘hardline’ purposes?”

Judge Wall’s questions were hand-balled by Professor Homel to Dr Abdalla. But he never received an answer.

“I’m a little concerned that I’ve received no response from the university to my letter,” Judge Wall said.

“They seem reluctant to discuss the matter.”

Griffith did not return several phone calls from The Australian yesterday.

Mr Abdalla could not be contacted.

The Real Islam: Warning, graphic pictures!

“The English imposed GMT on the world when Britain was a big colonial power, its about time for that to change…”

BBC

Muslim scientists and clerics have called for the adoption of Mecca time to replace GMT, arguing that the Saudi city is the true centre of the Earth.

*   “Saudi scientists..” what have they ever discovered? Any idea?

Mecca is the direction all Muslims face when they perform their daily prayers.

The call was issued at a conference held in the Gulf state of Qatar under the title: Mecca, the Centre of the Earth, Theory and Practice.
One geologist argued that unlike other longitudes, Mecca’s was in perfect alignment to magnetic north.
He said the English had imposed GMT on the rest of the world by force when Britain was a big colonial power, and it was about time that changed.

 Sheikh Youssef al-Qaradawy, said modern science had at last provided evidence that Mecca was the true centre of the Earth; proof, he said, of the greatness of the Muslim “qibla” – the Arabic word for the direction Muslims turn to when they pray.
The meeting also reviewed what has been described as a Mecca watch, the brainchild of a French Muslim.
*
The watch is said to rotate anti-clockwise and is supposed to help Muslims determine the direction of Mecca from any point on Earth.
The meeting in Qatar is part of a popular trend in some Muslim societies of seeking to find Koranic precedents for modern science.
It is called “Ijaz al-Koran”, which roughly translates as the “miraculous nature of the holy text”.
The underlying belief is that scientific truths were also revealed in the Muslim holy book, and it is the work of scholars to unearth and publicise the textual evidence.
But the movement is not without its critics, who say that the notion that modern science was revealed in the Koran confuses spiritual truth, which is constant, and empirical truth, which depends on the state of science at any given point in time.

What Quaradawi really wants:

*  Livingstone says that Al-Qaradawi doesn’t support jihad against the West. Apparently the jihad against Israel, in the context of which this great reformist Sheikh has defended suicide attacks, is just fine with Red Ken. “Ken Livingstone defends his extremist backer,” by Aislinn Simpson in the Telegraph (via DW)

Ken Livingstone defended his decision to share a platform with a homophobic Islamic preacher as he and his challenger, Boris Johnson, were neck and neck in the race for the capital yesterday.

Update from the Illustrated PIG:

Red Ken goes whoring for the gay vote

Red Ken Livingstone likes to hunt with the hounds and run with the fox. Last week he was promising the last few parts of London to the Moslems in return for their votes, such is his desperation to cling onto power.

Link to PIG

Yusuf al-Qaradawi has described homosexuality as an “unnatural and evil practice” and said the Koran permitted wife-beating in certain circumstances.

The Qatar-based Egyptian cleric has also advocated the use of Palestinian children as suicide bombers and once claimed that Asian tsunami victims were punished by Allah because their countries were centres of perversion.

But speaking on BBC1’s Politics Show yesterday, the London Mayor insisted he was right to welcome the cleric to City Hall as an “honoured guest” in July 2004. He said that while he did not agree with some of his views, al-Qaradawi did not support terrorism against the West. “He is a man who is prepared to say al-Qa’eda is wrong and to be very strong in that condemnation,” he said….

*

But Boris goes whoring too:

Boris is everything to all men.

“My grandfather was a Muslim and so was my great-grandfather. I am proud of my Muslim ancestry.”

*  So which bits is Boris proud of? The murders of millions of people? The paedophilia of their prophet? Honour killings? When will Boris tell us?

Boris Johnson submits to Muhammedan overlords:

London mayoral candidate has to say ‘Islam is a religion of peace” — after saying Islam was the problem after 7/7

* Can’t get elected unless you adhere to State Dogma. “Boris defends stance on Islam,” from the Chronicle Live (via DW):

Tory London mayoral candidate Boris Johnson was forced to defend his stance on Islam, insisting he believed it was a “religion of peace”.
Mr Johnson has been criticised for an article he wrote in the wake of the 7/7 London terror attacks in 2005 claiming “Islam is the problem”.

But Mr Johnson said the problem was extremists taking the words of the Koran ‘out of context’.

He said: “The problem is people who wrench out of context quotes from the holy book of Islam, the Koran, and use it to inspire evil in men’s hearts.

“That is a fact that few serious people would deny and we need to tackle the extremists.”

*  Indeed, but few serious people also have noticed that this much-discussed true, peaceful context of the Qur’an’s violent verses has never actually been produced, or that Islamic theological tradition tends to favor a more violent understanding.

But the MCB’s Bunglawussy ain’t buying any:

In the 1960s, Brigitte Bardot was France’s national icon, a pouty-lipped poster girl for the glories of her home country. So it is sign of how radically times have changed that yesterday’s silver-screen darling is today’s enemy of the people.
Bardot’s “crimes,” such as they are, are straightforward: She has committed the sin of speaking frankly and unapologetically about her country’s hostile Muslim immigrant population and – what is evidently worse – questioning the compatibility of some Muslim religious practices with Western society. Common sense, one might think, or least subjects fit for fruitful debate.

Not in modern France. Last week, the erstwhile cinema siren went on trial on the charge of inciting “racial hatred against Muslims.” If convicted, she could face a two-month suspended prison sentence and nearly $24,000 in fines.

The basis for the charge is utterly bogus. It stems from a letter that Bardot wrote to President Nicolas Sarkozy in 2006, in which she complained about the practices of Islamic immigrants. In particular, Bardot was put off by the ritual of Eid al-Adha, a Muslim feast in which sheep and goats are slaughtered by having their throats slit. A longtime animal-rights activist, Bardot found the practice abominable.

Her mistake was in thinking that she had the freedom to say so. But as France struggles to control a large (Muslims make up nearly ten percent of the country) and increasingly radicalized Muslim population critics of Islamism are finding themselves more actively persecuted by national authorities than the Islamists themselves.

Bardot is a case in point. Her latest legal woes may seem troubling, but they are only the latest battle in a larger war waged by Islamic radicals and their allies to suppress all criticism of Islam and its more militant and anti-Western incarnations. It speaks to the success of these state-backed exercises in intimidation that Bardot has been convicted for “inciting racial hatred” on four separate occasions.

Bardot’s trials, literal and figurative, at the hands of the Fifth Republic’s multicultural enforcers date back to the early 1990s, when she first spoke out against the slaughtering of animals for religious purposes. Although Bardot directed her attacks against Muslims and Jews, it was her criticism of the former that got her branded as a racist. By 1997, Bardot stood convicted on the charge of “inciting racial hatred” after suggesting in the French daily Le Figaro that France was beset by a “foreign over-population,” including with Muslim immigrants.

It was unclear, then as now, how criticism of a non-racial group, in this case Muslims, could be considered “racist.” Nor was it apparent why an issue as fundamental to the welfare of a nation as immigration was suddenly to be deemed off-limits for discussion. But the Orwellian subtext of the case was impossible to miss: There were some things that French citizens simply were not allowed to discuss.

Bardot pointedly ignored the lesson. The following year, she likened the slaughter of animals in Islamic rituals to the throat-slitting favored by Islamic fundamentalists in North Africa, implying that the connection was not coincidental. It was a provocative point, to be sure, but by no means an unreasonable one. Where the world’s leading religions have shed their cruelest tendencies, Islam as practiced in much of the world – one need only recall the gruesome decapitation murder of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl – retains its more savage elements.

In any case, criticizing religious practices would seem to be entirely consistent with European free-speech statutes, especially in anticlerical France. And, indeed, a lower court initially found Bardot’s comments to be protected by free-speech laws. That was too much for an appeals court, however, and before long it reversed the decision and slapped Bardot with a fine. Free speech was a fine thing, apparently, so long as it didn’t offend Muslims.

It would not be the last time that Bardot incurred the wrath of French censors. In 2000, she was again convicted of “racist” thought crimes for writing what she called an “Open Letter to My Lost France,” in which she raised concerns about Muslim immigration. As on past occasions, the merits of her concerns were not specifically examined, their focus on Muslims being deemed sufficient proof their unacceptability for public discussion – this even as French banlieues, home to unassimilated Muslim immigrants, seethed with the violent hatred that would erupt in riots across France in 2005.

Bardot was undaunted. In 2003, she again ran afoul of “anti-racism laws” when she published A Cry in the Silence, a book decrying what she called “the Islamisation of France,” and pointing out the obvious ties between the September 11 attacks and Islamic extremism. In that book, Bardot also cautioned against the dangers of rubbishing Western freedoms to accommodate political sensitivities. “For 20 years we have submitted to a dangerous and uncontrolled underground infiltration,” she wrote. “Not only does it fail to give way to our laws and customs. Quite the contrary, as time goes by it tries to impose its own laws on us.” As if to demonstrate her point, French authorities proceeded to fine her 5,000 euros for offending Muslims. (Revealingly, Bardot’s views proved far more popular among the French public, which turned A Cry of Silence into a bestseller.)

To understand just how sinister are the attacks on Bardot it is useful to consider the group that repeatedly has brought suit against her, the Movement Against Racism And For Friendship Between Peoples (MRAP). Inaccurately called a human-rights group, the MRAP is in fact an aggressive silencer of free-speech.

Its most famous contribution to French political life was to thwart the sale of the late Oriana Fallaci’s 2002 book, Anger and Pride, on the grounds that it supposedly incited racial hatred against Muslims. Similarly, when Bardot published A Cry in the Silence in 2003, the MRAP pronounced it “unacceptable,” thus appointing itself the arbiter of what French citizens should and should not be allowed to read.

But of course groups like the MRAP would be inconsequential were it not for the dangerous proclivity of the French legal establishment for treating their fictitious allegations of racism with unmerited seriousness. In this context, it was illuminating when a French prosecutor last week called for unusually stiff penalties against Bardot in the current case against the actress because she was a “bit tired of trying Madame Bardot.” How much easier it would be for that civil servant and countless others like her if nuisances like Bardot would simply surrender their right to speak freely.

Bardot may not be the most artful of social commentators, but then she doesn’t need to be. Nothing demonstrates the prescience of her warnings – not least her warning about the dangers of sacrificing Western liberties to accommodate the extreme demands of hostile minority groups – so much as the ongoing efforts of the French state to silence the woman it once hailed as an idol.

Red Ken: there’s method in his vileness

This column has long argued that mass, uncontrolled immigration was a deliberate policy to secure electoral advantage for Labour.

* Spiegel: The Bizarre Fight to Be Mayor of London

Back in 1987, after Mrs Thatcher’s third victory, Labour concluded it could no longer rely on the old white working class.

So it decided that it would import a new working class, which would then return the favour by loyally voting Labour.

This was part of a wider strategy that also included the creation of a vast client state and putting as many members of the middle classes as possible on the payroll. It’s now coming to fruition in the London mayoral elections.

There are 350,000 new voters on the electoral roll in the capital, most of them immigrants.

There’s also a huge Muslim vote. Ken Livingstone reckons that 200,000 of them will swing it for him.

So he’s sent his goons into mosques to rustle up support and lavished hundreds of thousands of pounds in grants on Muslim organisations.

One of his most dedicated cheerleaders in the Islamic community is a big fan of suicide bombings and a supporter of Hamas, which wants to wipe Israel off the map.

Now you know why Livingstone embraces Islamist headbangers, insults Jews and smears anyone who challenges him as a “racist” or “Islamophobe”.

It’s all done with a cynical eye on the ballot box.

Vile he may be, daft he ain’t.
