When the TV executives came up with the concept for the show they wanted it to be a case of people laughing at a bunch of backward rednecks. It didn’t turn out that way…..

The blowback against A&E has been massive, with millions of people demonstrating support for Robertson, and commentators from both left and right condemning the network for its attempt to take Robertson off the air.

WHERE’S OUTRAGE ABOUT THIS GAY OPPRESSION?

• Pamela Geller weighs in on hypocrisy of ‘Duck Dynasty’ scandal

The following  is the most devastating four paragraphs on the Duck Dynasty circus yet written. It exposes a grievous and intolerable logical flaw prancing about as substantive critique. Its beauty is that it is so simple an observation that it requires only four paragraphs to render the absurdity of this bread and circuses screaming match an inert triviality.

Daniel Greenfield:

We Can Have Gay Rights or Freedom of Speech
_____
“What do a reality show star, a cakemaker and a photographer have in common? They’re all victims of a political system in which the mandate to not merely recognize gay marriage, but to celebrate it, has completely displaced freedom of speech.

The issues at stake in all three cases did not involve the Orwellian absurdity of “Marriage Equality”. The cases of a Christian cakemaker and a Christian photographer whom state courts have ruled must participate in gay weddings or face fines and jail time were blatant violations of both Freedom of Speech and Freedom of Religion in the name of outlawing any dissent from gay marriage.

That is why Phil Robertson of Duck Dynasty was suspended. Robertson, unlike Bashir, didn’t take to the air to make violent threats against an individual. He expressed in plain language that he believes homosexuality is wrong. And that is something that you aren’t allowed to do anymore.

The left sneers that A&E isn’t subject to Freedom of Speech because it’s a private company. And they’re right. But then they insist that a cakemaker and a photographer aren’t protected by Freedom of Speech or Religion because they’re private businesses.”

My G-d, that last paragraph is the end of this discussion. Now, let us talk about gay rights in the Palestinian territories.

Examiner

The leader of the PVV Party in Holland, Mr Geert Wilders, has up the ante ‘in a highly disturbing and provocative act’ against Islam, the worldwide Ahmadiyya Muslim Community has charged.

According to Dutch News, the politician has placed a sticker on his parliamentary office door which reads, in Arabic, ‘Islam is a lie, Mohammed is a criminal, the Koran is poison.’ The insulting sticker, the news outlet said, “is a deliberate take-off of the Saudi Arabian flag.”

 Hadhrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad, Head-honcho of the persecuted Ahmadiyya who are seen as heretics by other Muslims, previously issued a warning to Geert Wilders during his visit to the Netherlands:

Addressing Wilders directly, Hadhrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad said:

“Listen carefully — You, your party and every other person like you will ultimately be destroyed. But the religion of Islam and the message of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) will remain forever. No worldly power, no matter how powerful and no matter how much hatred they bear towards Islam, will ever succeed in erasing our religion.”

The Leftards are beside themselves:

This latest attack on Islam, widely publicized by Geert Wilders himself, has been condemned by many leaders in the government in Holland, saying the politician is playing into the hands of extremists.

Foreign minister Frans Timmermans condemned the sticker saying this sort of action is counterproductive.

Frans Timmermans did not say what exactly is “productive” or what is produced by caving in to Mohammedan mores.

Obummer’s Christmas Holiday Message

Note the seasonal decoration as well as the clear Christian message:

Daniel Greenfield:

“It’s not unusual for the United States and a Muslim country to be on the opposite sides of the War on Terror. It is unusual for a Muslim country to take a stand against terrorism while the United States backs the right of a terrorist group to burn churches, torture opposition members and maintain control of a country with its own nuclear program.”

Yes, Penny.  FGM is “just a little nick”. Wife beating? White men are worse, we all know that. Child marriage? Look at all the white pedos!  Polygamy? Not a problem. Who doesn’t like to share? 

May the freedom sack rest lightly on your shoulders, Penny. Who would be more deserving?

Sweden’s March Into Oblivion

The fruits of denial.

Sweden is self-destructing, and more and more people are writing about it – but, with very few exceptions, still not in the mainstream Swedish media, where denial continues to reign supreme.  (Bruce Bawer)

Thousands rally against racism in Sweden

In Sweden, “ racism and nazism”  is real. It does not only exist in the fantasies of  leftist agitprops and their Mohammedan enablers. THEY are the new NAZIS. They are the RACISTS  they are warning us about;  they are determined to commit genocide on the Swedish people. For decades now, Swedes have been ideologically so indoctrinated by commie subversives and adherents of the NWO, that they see nothing wrong with committing mass-suicide just like the Jim Jones cultists in Guyana.

Huge crowds gather in Stockholm suburb, a week after similar gathering was attacked by neo-Nazis.

• Thinking About ‘Racism’—  A word’s meaning, then and now.

On December 15, a right-wing group attacked anti-nazi demonstrators in Karrtorp outside Stockholm.

So yes, lets “celebrate diversity”- by vilifying those who oppose genocide:

The armed group initially denied the assault but, after footage appeared and caused an outcry, it issued a rare apology.

Dozens of hate clerics face being silenced by new anti-terror Asbos

UK: Marks & Spencer faces boycott from customers furious over its accommodation of Sharia

An update from this:

• UK: Marks & Spencer tells Muslim staff they can refuse to serve customers buying alcohol or pork

“The spokesman said the policy applied throughout its 700-plus stores and to other religions as well. For example, Christians who did not want to work on Sundays and religious Jews who chose not to work on Saturdays would also be excused.” That is not at all the same thing. Different groups getting different days off is a private matter; it doesn’t affect the public face of the company. A checkout line (or more than one) that people have to avoid because they have alcohol or pork is part of the public face of the company: an official and public acknowledgment that it is bowing to Islamic law.

Dutch “ultranationalist leader” insults Islam

They make it sound as if nationalism was a bad thing.

The Leader of Dutch ultranationalist party for Freedom (PVV) Geert Wilders, who altered the Sauda Arabian flag in a slir campaign against Islam and subsequently offered to distribute it as a free sticker was condemned by the Dutch government and opposition parties.

Geert Wilders’ proposed change to the Saudi Flag.

Wilders altered the Saudi flag using the Arabic alphabet to include insults to Islam. He stuck the flag to the door of his office in parliament and urged Dutch society to do the same. Wilders has campaigned to stop what he views as the “Islamisation of the Netherlands and Europe”. He was acquitted of charges for “hate speech against Muslims” in 2011 by the Dutch court.

Erdogan blames ‘international groups’ for corruption scandal that rocks Turkey

Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan denounced “international groups” and “dark alliances” on Saturday for entangling Turkey in a corruption scandal that has exposed deep rifts between him and a US-based Muslim cleric who helped him rise to power.
Sixteen people, including the sons of two ministers and the head of state-owned Halkbank, were formally arrested on Saturday, local media said, in a corruption inquiry that Erdogan has called a “dirty operation” to undermine his rule.
The Turkish leader raised the stakes by accusing unnamed foreign ambassadors of “provocative actions.” Some pro-government newspapers had accused the US envoy of encouraging the move against Halkbank – a charge denied by the embassy.

Caroline Glick: 

The Left against Zion

The rejection of Israel is not a natural component of leftist dogma. It’s just that for the past decade, the smart money and the rising power on the Left has been with those who oppose Israel’s existence as a strong, independent Jewish state.
While the ASA and its comrades are on the fringes of academia, they are not fringe voices on the Left. The Left has embraced the cause of Israel’s destruction.
