Saudi Arabia and Qatar’s Idea of “Aid”

by Samuel Westrop/Gatestone

It is not the failure of the Saudi Arabia and Qatar to “step up” that will foment extremism in the Middle East; rather, it is they who are fomenting it. They must step down, not “up.” It is these states’ sponsorship of jihadists and other extremists that brings about the turmoil and the bloodshed.

Many journalists, instead of letting facts speak for themselves, frequently seem partial to making idealistic predictions and sweeping statements about the Middle East. Although no newspaper or government predicted the “Arab Spring,” once it happened, much of the media declared that an era of prosperity, equality and democracy was about to transform the Middle East into a modern region with modern aspirations.

Gaza: never enough Islam

GAZA — Hamas, the Islamic group that rules this Palestinian territory, has issued a new education law enforcing a more rigid separation of sexes in schools and prohibiting any relations with Israelis, in line with its strictly religious and nationalist ideology, officials said Monday.

Pamela Geller:

This is Islamic apartheid — creed apartheid, gender apartheid, religious apartheid. The NY Times reports on it without comment or editorial or judgement. Sick. Once again we see these stories and others about similar subject matter are written by a Muslim reporter. This has become the standard reporting procedure.

Obama is giving these savages half a billion dollars. And these new prohibitions are being enforced with your taxpayer dollars. When are we going to rise up and stop this inhumanity? The new regulation “stipulates that any educational institution that receives aid meant to encourage or promote normalization of ties with Israel will face punishment: a 10-year prison term for an individual perpetrator and a fine of 20,000 Jordanian dinar (about $28,200) for any institution involved in organizing exchange programs or activities that include Israelis.”

This is heartbreaking on so many levels. The world is in freefall.

And what’s the ‘greater good’ if it doesn’t provide enough moolah for the aggrandisement of incompetent political hacks?

Gillard and her most experienced cabinet colleagues are set to retire with nest eggs worth more than $5 million each just as they oversee rules that make it impossible for others to reach the same target:

• Get your greedy hands off our money  (Andrew Bolt)

In her first speech in Parliament Gillard spoke a perfect indictment of her last days as Prime Minister:

“a weary people who no longer believe what politicians say”

Past his use by date:

Mr Garrett’s spokeswoman said “we were not informed it was outdated”.

Anything for a buck:

“… it is only Labor that has that plan.”

“There will never be sharia finance under a government I lead”

Amanie Advisors Australia is marketing what it claims will be Australia’s first Islamic investment forum.

The forum, ear-marked for Melbourne on 16 April, is intended to bring together political, finance and industry figures along with global investors and higher ranking Shariah scholars.

Commenting on the upcoming forum, Amanie Advisors Australia head Mark Darras said the event had the support of the Victorian Government and would provide the opportunity for Australian companies to put their case before some of the biggest investors in the Islamic world.

Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan told students at Tuskegee University that the U.S. government is actively working to murder billions of people worldwide.

“Nobody is illegal”

No Wonder the Mainstream Media Is Dying. On Tuesday, the Associated Press announced that it is banishing the phrase “illegal immigrant” from its famous stylebook. The world’s largest newsgathering outlet now advises reporters that “illegal” will “only refer to an action, not a person.”

Serbia-Kosovo talks end without accord

EU-mediated talks over the status of Serb-dominated northern Kosovo fail to reach a deal. (al Jizz)

Leaders from Serbia and Kosovo have failed to come to agreement on the status of Serb-dominated northern Kosovo in talks held in Brussels.

EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton, who had been mediating in the talks, said in a statement that the gap between the two sides was “very narrow, but deep.”

How long did it take her to figure that out?

Gillard’s Jihad Against the Church

The smell of burning Christians:

Just who is the enemy here? Child abusers or the church?

These are cases dating back 20 and 50 years ago. What crimes will the commission actually stop, since it won’t investigate the worst abuse of children today – in Aboriginal communities?

Gillard’s royal commission into child sexual abuse in institutions is stoking a hot fire. The commission opened yesterday with ominous warnings that suggest the Catholic Church will be under serious ideological attack.— continued below the fold.  (Bolt)

Julia Gillard creates a monster:

The Department of Climate Change will be merged with the Industry Department and will become the Department of Industry, Innovation, Climate Change, Science, Research and Tertiary Education.

That’s progress. “Let’s not just dwell in the past.”

Turkey: Work commences on ‘Erdogan the Magnificent’ mosque

On hill over the Bosphorus, highest minarets in the world

(ANSAmed) – ANKARA, APRIL 3 – Polemics, accusations, and sarcasm have failed to put a damper on Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s plans to build an enormous mosque towering over the Bosphorus.

The mosque will be gigantic, covering a surface area of some 15,000 square meters on the Camlica hill on Istanbul’s Asian side, with another 250,000 square meters housing a park, museum, bar, restaurants, amusement park, and a terrace with a breathtaking view over the Bosphorus and Byzantine and Muslim Istanbul. Erdogan had announced the project a year ago, saying that the ”enormous” mosque would be ”visible from anywhere in the city” with ”the highest minarets in the world”. (More)

Jihad and the Middle Way

Anyone who makes the claim that he wants to serve the Deen yet is not thinking about jihad in the way of Allah, either has no understanding (of jihad) or he is not a truthful and sincere person. However, concerning the issue of jihad, people have gone to two extremes, both of which are mistaken. One group understood from the concept of jihad that it is necessary to view all the kuffar as those whom we must raise the sword or rifle to kill. The other group understands from the concept of jihad that we must be gentle, affectionate, and love all of them, and by doing such we would be “struggling” (i.e. making “jihad”) with them to bring them back to Allah and His Deen. Obviously, both groups have fallen into error. In reality, we are not a people whose mission is to kill the kuffar, nor are we a people who love the kuffar unrestrictedly. When it is time for fighting, we do not fight except those who, by doing so, we would be serving Allah alone (not our passions or personal agendas).

Muslims Destroying Christianity in Syria

“Bishop Luke of Seidnaya: Orthodoxy is being destroyed in Syria“ Pravoslavie  thanks to Pamela Geller

The horror of this (apart from the obvious) is that this is just the beginning. We are facing the genocide of over two million Christians living in Syria (10% of the population).

“Army vet charged with fighting with al-Qaida in Syria”

“On his Facebook page, Harroun also stated that ‘the only good Zionist is a dead Zionist…'” How did this Muslim from the United States — where we are constantly told that no Muslims, none, hold the view of Islam put forward by al-Qaeda and groups like it — come to misunderstand his tolerant, peaceful religion so spectacularly?
