Coincidence? Polish Government Seats Trump Beside Painting of Polish King Famed For Routing Islam from Europe

Seriously: do you think the morons from CNN, NYT, WaPo, MSNBC, NEC and the rest of them know who  King Jan (John) III Sobieski was?

President Donald Trump’s first photo-call in Poland after his arrival in Air Force One was with President Andrzej Duda and saw him sat beside an oil painting of a prominent figure in Polish history and folklore — the 17th-century king who kicked Islam out of Central Europe and is remembered as “the Hammer of the Turks”.

Warsaw’s Royal Palace, where the meeting took place — lavishly reconstructed after it was dynamited by Nazi German troops during the Second World War — benefits from a surfeit of grand rooms and hundreds of works of art.

From oils of kings and statesmen by artists such as Rembrandt to impressive murals and sculpture, the Polish authorities had a great deal of choice for where to host the symbolic first meeting of President Trump’s first European visit.

It may be seen as a remarkable coincidence, therefore, that of all the rooms and of all the paintings, they chose to sit President Trump besides a portrait of one of Poland’s best-known warrior kings. King Jan (John) III Sobieski is today remembered and celebrated in Poland, and elsewhere in Central Europe, for his pivotal role at the Battle of Vienna in September 1683.

‘This our duty. Not our ambition. It is our duty. Religious duty,’ he told the ABC’s Four Corners program.

Spain: Muslims call for marriage to Christian women to strengthen Islam

(Muslim) “Brothers have begun to make their way back home”

Hundreds of posters displayed in a migrant-dominated part of Barcelona are urging Muslim men to marry Spanish women in a bid to spread Islam, and inviting members of the community to an “information meeting”.

The posters, which are derogatory about Christians but call on ‘Brothers’ to marry women of the religion to “strengthen” Islam, have been plastered through the neighbourhood of El Raval. Official data collected in 2014 foundthat 56.7 per cent of residents in El Raval were born abroad.

“It is permissible and encouraged that the Muslim man marries honest and chaste women who belong to the People of the Book. Even though they have distorted and altered the tradition, they are still suitable for marriage.

“Brother, enter a partnership with a Spaniard, teach her that Islam is the true religion.

“Islamic law dictates that the fruits of this alliance will follow Islam, which will further strengthen our community,” the main body of text reads.

The posters also invite members of the community to an “information meeting” on 14 March at an Arab restaurant in the neighbourhood.

Islam

Local media reports that El Raval is a key target for Muslim supremacist groups who say followers of Islam have a “right of return” to Spain.

France: 100 known terror suspects own firearms

France allows 100 terror suspects to own firearms: Authorities admit shocking security blunder two weeks after known gun enthusiast attacked police in Paris
  • Interior Minister Gerard Collomb made announcement during a senate hearing
  • He said they found 100 registered gun owners who were on extremism watchlist
  • Comes two weeks after jihadis rammed car into a police van on Champs-Elysees 
  • Adam Djaziri, 31, legally possessed firearms despite being flagged as extremist 

Some 100 terror suspects legally own firearms in France, Interior Minister Gerard Collomb has said.

His announcement comes two weeks after a known gun enthusiast rammed a car filled with weapons and gas canisters into a police van on the Champs-Elysees in Paris.

Jihadist Adam Djaziri was the only one killed but the attack raised questions over how the 31-year-old legally possessed firearms despite being flagged as a potential radical Islamist two years ago.

Paris has been on high-alert ever since the terror attack in 2015 which saw 130 killed in a series of gun and bomb attacks. Pictured: A French policeman on patrol following an attack two weeks ago

.

In an interview with Le Figaro newspaper two days after the June 19 incident, Collomb said he had asked for a probe into similar cases.

During a Senate hearing on a proposed new anti-terrorism law, Collomb said they ‘identified about 100’ individuals who, like Djaziri, were registered gun owners despite being on a watchlist for extremism.

He said: ‘The person who wanted to commit that attack was on file and, at the same time, was the legal owner of firearms. This is a sign of disfunction.’

He said he had asked local police authorities to identify individuals on security watchlists so they are ‘able to take action and treat these problems’ in order for the country to ‘return to a normal state’.

Jihad causes poverty, not the other way ’round

Poverty, not Islamic State, has radicalised Muslim Filipinos

Really? The stupid is hardwired in this one. Another scribbler from The Times wants to sell you the old canard that poverty causes jihad.  There is no cure….

Philippine troops on the outskirts of Marawi.

Places of violence and horror tumble suddenly on to the consciousness of the world, so nobody should worry that they had never heard of an obscure city in the southern Philippines named Marawi. Until six weeks ago, few foreign experts knew much about this town of 200,000 people on the island of Mindanao either.

Tearful imam Tawhidi blames religion for radicalization

Say what you want about imam Tawhidi, he keeps saying things we don’t hear from anyone else in the Muslim quarter. Whatever his motives are,  there is much truth in what he says. And what he says can get him killed. True believers are rather unforgiving to renegades like him.

A tearful Muslim imam blamed Islam on Tuesday for radicalizing an Australian doctor who is known as “Dr. Jihad.”

“I can’t blame him — it’s my religion. I can’t blame it on education, because he’s had the best education. So I have to blame it on religion,” imam Mohammed Tawhidi told Australia’s 7 News of Tareq Kamleh, a doctor who fled to Syria in 2015 and has since joined the Islamic State.

Tawhidi’s comments came on the heels of a new ISIS propaganda video featuring Kamleh. In the video, the radicalized doctor claims “we love death more than you love life” and asserted that Muslims who don’t join the Islamic State “have no self respect.”

After seeing the video, the imam was moved to tears when he was asked if he had a message for Kamleh. At that moment, Tawhidi said he has to “blame” the young pediatrician’s radicalization “on religion.” The imam, still emotional, told the broadcaster he was “shocked” by the question.

Since joining the Islamic State, Kamleh has assumed the Islamic name Abu Yousef al-Australi. He addressed President Donald Trump in the video, too, saying the radicals are happy U.S. troops are near Syria because they are “really eagerly awaiting your attempt to enter our cities.”

Because of his willingness to speak out against radicalized Islam, Tawhidi has become a target.

According to a report from Daily Mail Australia, Tawhidi, who has denounced Sharia law, has requested $30,000 to pay for security guards to keep him safe.

“I’ve been assaulted by Muslim leaders, ambushed and spat on in the streets,” he said.

Tawhidi is no stranger to controversy. He sparked criticism earlier this year when he reportedly said he moved to Australia “because it was a non-Muslim country.”

“If we knew after 30 years we are going to have burqas running around and mosques being erected on every corner and people proposing Sharia law against democracy in this country,” Tawhidi said, “we wouldn’t have come.”

Australia: The Madness Continues

by Judith Bergman/Gatestone institute

  • “While terrorism’s origins have many factors, Islamic terrorists, as heinous as their acts are, they are often merely doing what the scriptures are telling them.” — Tanveer Ahmed, Muslim psychiatrist.
  • In Australia, according to judges, women and children must accept sexual assaults because it is part of the “Islamic culture” of their attackers. It would seem that in parts of Australia, this “Islamic culture” has replaced the rule of law. None of the above, however, seems to be enough to appease Muslim sentiments. In March, Anne Aly, Australia’s first female Muslim MP, said that racial-discrimination laws should be expanded to cover insults based on religion as well.
  • In March, a teacher at Punchbowl Primary School quit her job after she and her family received death threats from the children in the school, with some of them saying they would behead her. The teacher’s complaints to the New South Wales Department of Education were dismissed.

During the month of Ramadan alone, the world witnessed 160 Islamic attacks in 29 countries, in which 1627 people were murdered and 1824 injured. Nevertheless, the dual efforts to deny any links between Islamic terrorism and Islam on the one hand, and the efforts to accommodate Islam to the greatest extent possible on the other, seem to continue unaffected by the realities of Islamic terrorism — in Australia, as well, which is experiencing its own share of sharia and jihad.

At the end of May, the Public Health Association of Australia (PHAA) called on the Australian Parliament’s Joint Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs, Defence and Trade to:

“…include a recommendation in its report that disavows the notion that there is any inherent link between Islam and terrorism… The Committee should condemn any politician who refers divisively (expressly or implied) to any religious or ethnic group for the purpose of political gain.”

PHAA Chief Executive Michael Moore said that there is no inherent link between any religion and acts of terror:

“When you look at terrorism and the IRA, I don’t think many people blamed Christianity for terrorism when clearly there was an overlay. In fact there’s nothing ­inherent in Christianity that links to terrorism”.

Since when are public health officials qualified to make authoritative statements on the theology of Islam or its linkage to Islamic terrorism?

Hugh Fitzgerald: “Learn Islam From Its Source” (Part II)

“Learn Islam From Its Source” (Part I) is here.

Print it out, take notes and prepare yourself for the next “interfaith- misconception dispelling” and “anti-racism” event at your local mosque. Your imam will appreciate it.

You can be sure that the Muslims teaching about the Qur’an will eagerly quote 5:32 and be careful, at the same time, to avoid quoting the verse that follows, 5:33, that glosses 5:32 and gives it its sense. Another favorite Qur’anic verse that the apologists like to quote is 2:256: “there is no compulsion in religion.” That sounds straightforward, and non-Muslims will be expected to take it at face value. But a little thought about the matter will lead to quite a different conclusion. Non-Muslims are not strictly “compelled” — this is the Muslim view –to give up their religions and convert to Islam. They have a “choice” — so supposedly no “compulsion” — either to convert to Islam, to be killed, or to live as dhimmis under Muslim rule. As dhimmis, they must pay the Jizyah (a capitation tax on non-Muslims) to the Muslim state, and will also be subject to a host of lesser disabilities: displaying identifying marks on both their dress and dwelling; riding donkeys rather than horses; stepping aside on footpaths so as always to yield the right of way to Muslims. Isn’t this seeming “choice” really a form of “compulsion”? In order to avoid either death, or being forced to pay the Jizyah and observe other requirements made on dhimmis, all of which are daily reminders of their well-deserved humiliation, the only way out was to convert to Islam. While some Christians and Jews paid the Jizyah, others, over time, in order to free themselves of this onerous tax, converted to Islam. Any fair-minded person would describe that as “compulsion.”

And what about Muslims themselves? Muslims were not free to choose a religion other than Islam. The punishment for Muslims who wish to leave Islam — that is, to be apostates — has always been death. That too, sounds a lot like “compulsion in religion.” If you have ever wondered about how the handful of well-known apostates from Islam — e.g., Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Ibn Warraq — have managed to survive, the answer is simple: they now have the security of living in the advanced West. But they don’t dare travel back to the Muslim countries they came from, and they know all too well what the phrase “there is no compulsion in religion” actually amounts to in Islam — that is, to nothing.

Malek Fahd Islamic School to remain open after judge orders Government to restore funds

Are we governed by an unaccountable judiciary or by an irresponsible government?

Malek Fahd Islamic School to remain open after judge orders Government to restore funds

AUSTRALIA’S largest Islamic school will remain open after a Federal Court judge ordered the Federal Government to no longer withhold funding.

Malek Fahd Islamic School, which has about 2400 students and 250 teachers spread over three campuses at Greenacre, Hoxton Park and Beaumont Hills, was in danger of closing after the Federal Government told the school in April it would stop making monthly payments citing concerns over its governance, restructuring, and transparency.

Judge John Edward Griffiths today ordered the month-by-month funding be restored and back-paid to April.

This means the school will receive about $6.5 million as a result of today’s court ruling.

Update:

The islamically correct ABC waters it down, as usual:

Soddy Barbaria funding Islamic terrorism in Britain & elsewhere

Saudi Arabia ‘is undoubtedly at the top of the list’ of countries funding Islamist terrorism in Britain, claims report
  • Several gulf states ‘intentionally’ exporting Islamic extremism to UK, report says
  • This is done through grants to mosques and education funding, authors claim
  • Saudi Arabia ‘is undoubtedly at the top of the list’ of countries funding efforts
  • Henry Jackson Society is calling for full and open public inquiry into the issue 

Saudi Arabia is ‘at the top of the list’ of countries exporting extremist Islam to the UK, a new report says.

Why do we need a ‘new report’ when we all knew this for a long time?

The kingdom has engaged in a 60-year, multi-million dollar campaign to advance its extremist brand of Wahhabi Islam in British Muslim communities, according to a study by the Henry Jackson Society.

This has been achieved through endowment grants to mosques, the funding of Islamic education institutions and the training of imams, the report authors say.

Saudi Arabia is 'at the top of the list' of several Gulf states engaged in an 'intentional and systematic' policy of exporting extremist ideology to the West, a new report claims

  • Haleema Butt, 28, got a job working at Heathrow two months before attack
  • Khuram, 27, massacred revellers last month – killing eight and injuring more
  • Her husband, Usman Darr, who also worked on security, was suspended as well 
  • The mother-of-two has now been sacked after an internal investigation 
  • There is no suggestion Haleema Butt or husband Usman Darr are extremists 

The London Bridge terror attack mastermind Khuram Butt’s sister has been sacked from Heathrow after being suspended over security fears.

Haleema Butt, 28, got a job working at Britain’s biggest airport two months before her brother, 27, massacred revellers last month – killing eight and injuring dozens more.

Her husband was also suspended from his job at the airport. There is no suggestion Haleema or her husband Usman Darr are extremists or knew what Butt was planning.

Heathrow have declined to release details of the security checks its staff undergo, although for similar roles in the police, the history of applicants’ family and friends is reviewed.

Channel 7 removes ‘hateful’ poll over Yassmin Abdel-Magied’s decision to leave the country

Who guessed it? Islamo supremacist & Hizbut adherent Yassmin Abdel-Magied is now a victim of “prejudice and discrimination”.

CHANNEL 7’s digital arm has “unreservedly” apologised for publishing a now removed Facebook poll asking followers to vote on whether the Muslim activist Yassmin Abdel-Magied should leave the country or “face her critics”.

The poll, posted on the 7 News Australia Facebook page, was slammed by followers and commentators for inciting racist discussion and bullying, and Ms Abdel-Magied herself said it invited “prejudice and discrimination”.

After being questioned by news.com.au, the station removed the poll from and admitted it “should never have been posted”.

Yahoo7, which administers the 7 News Australia Facebook page along together with Seven News, has since taken responsibility for the post.

The Facebook post published Tuesday asked followers to comment on Ms Magied’s decision to leave Australia. The controversial television presenter and commentator recently announced she was moving to London after being “traumatised” over facing what she described as “deeply racist” criticism.

The engineer-turned-media personality has been constantly criticised since posting an insensitive comment on Anzac Day which she removed from her page.

Seven’s post shared the news that Ms Abdel-Magied had announced she was leaving Australia and posed the question: “Do you support her decision to move to London or do you think she should stay and face her critics?”

The post attracted more than 1600 comments and 17,500 votes, according to Facebook.

“The media witch-hunt of Yassmin Abdel-Magied is a sad reflection of what we do to people who express opinion in our country.”
