Churches should have a ‘bouncer’ on the door throughout services to improve security, new counter terrorism advice suggests, as an expert has warned small parish churches are more at risk of attack that larger places of worship.

Much of the UK’s Christian clergy, as well as its government, can stand up and take a bow for this one. It was they who implemented and applauded immigration policies that make it easy for Islamic State jihadis to get into Britain. It was they who stigmatized opposition to mass Muslim migration as racism, bigotry and Islamophobia. Now they are living in the Britain they made.“Vicars are told not to wear dog collars in public as experts fear ISIS will target British church in next attack,” by Alexander Ward, Daily Mail, August 31, 2016:
Vicars have been told not to wear dog collars in public over fears that Islamic State will target a British church in its next attack.
One man of the cloth said he has been advised not to wear his dog collar out and about amid fears he could be singled out in a terror attack.
Wait a minute, that’s not all:

The court in Nice concluded on Thursday the Riviera city’s decree is illegal because there were no proven risks of disruption to public order.
PARIS – A French court has overturned a ban on “burkinis” in Nice, the last of a series of similar decisions regarding local bans of the full-body swimwear adopted by some Muslim women.
In the French republic, state schools were built to fight the grip of the Catholic church on the whole of French society. The thinking was that Darwin is better at explaining the origin of the human race than the Bible. To build a country of free citizens: knowledge first; belief only if you insist, and even then, only by yourself.
“If the hijab or burkini had anything to do with modesty or piety, the Islamic fundamentalists would have sought private beaches, not insisted on forcing themselves on the public. … If the hijab becomes an accepted public phenomenon, a modern society cannot teach its future generations that a woman’s dress is not an excuse for rape”. — Hala Arafa, writing in The Hill.
A French Muslim society that often seems to feel as if it still belongs to its country of origin, appears to have decided that the game of secularism and “living together” should be over. With veils, burkinis and guns, various Islamists groups seem to be trying to embed the same message: We remain Muslims first and have decided to pay no attention to the culture of countries in which we are living.
For many today, French secularism is an anti-human rights ideology, a kind of moral deformity close to racism.
How can a free country, they ask, even think of doing such a thing as trying to ban a veil or a burkini — the full body covering for women to wear on the beach? How, they ask, can the French Republic call itself free and remain free when many of its citizens would like to rob Muslim women, peacefully obeying their own religion, of the freedom to choose their own clothes?
The current radicalization in France is not like that of the recent migration of Muslims to other European countries. Muslims have been coming to France in large numbers since the French left Algeria in 1962. The French never made any distinction between the French of “Gaul” and the French of North Africa. The current radicalization is not of those who came then, but of the younger generation — of French Muslims. They were born in France, speak French, were schooled in France — but they are not at ease with the values of France.
Islamic fundamentalism in France has been imported from the outside — by avenues such as Al Jazeera and Muslim wars in the Middle East. Now, therefore, these young French Muslim citizens have a real wish for secession from the rest of the population — like the wish of the Confederate states for secession from the United States, before and during the U.S. Civil War. These young French Muslims apparently do not want to live in the same country anymore. They seem to want a separate country, or a different country.
For more than 25 years, the French Republic, right and left, has been trying to disentangle the country from the “Muslim textile problem” (hijab, niqab, burka, burkini and so on). When the problem began back in 1989, the head of Creil College expelled three Muslim girls for wearing the Muslim veil, the hijab. A strong debate followed: pro-veil vs. anti-veil. Same arguments: as usual, tolerance, freedom of choice, and freedom of religion were on one side, secularism and respect for rules on the other side.
Rules? What rules?
Central to the history of France, is that, in the republic, state schools were built to fight the grip of the Catholic church on the whole of French society. At the end of 19th century, until the First World War, republican teachers worked hard to build schools separated from the Pope and the church. The thinking was that Darwin is better at explaining the origin of the human race than the Bible’s crediting God with creating the world in seven days. To build a country of free citizens: knowledge first; belief only if you insist, and even then, only by yourself.
The Islamic veil at school, or the burkini at the beach, seems an attempt to “re-religiousize” France and break the French consensus for secularism. For a hundred years, the consensus has been accepted by everyone — Catholics, Jews, Protestants — except for Muslims.

The consensus can be summarized like this: Religious beliefs cannot belong to the public sphere without risking tyranny or civil war. If French citizens want to live in peace democratically, all disturbing subjects — especially faith in a country of multiple faiths — must remain strictly private.
For almost 30 years now, Muslims organizations in France have been telling everyone they do not accept this old private-public rule. Even at public schools, there are constant attempts to remodel the curriculum to align with religious faith.
“There is no such religion as Christianity … In reality, Jesus Christ was a Muslim coming from Jewish tradition … The name of the religion revealed to Christ was Islam …” — Abdurrahman Dilipak, columnist, Yeni Akit.
In Turkey, not even the smallest village of a few hundred inhabitants has a non-Muslim mayor.
Against this embarrassing background, Turkey is accusing Europe of being racist. That would be like North Korea accusing Europe of being a rogue state.
It’s not a bad joke; it’s a very bad joke. Turkey, where all variants of ethnic and religious xenophobia are a national pastime, is accusing the West of being racist.
Speaking after a spat with Austria and Sweden over news reports and tweets from those countries that accused Turkey of allowing sex with children under the age of 15, Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu claimed that the behavior of European countries reflected the “racism, anti-Islamic and anti-Turkish (trend) in Europe.”
He is talking about the same Europe where the inhabitants of one of its biggest cities, London, recently elected a Muslim as its mayor. In Turkey, not even the smallest village of a few hundred inhabitants has a non-Muslim mayor.
Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu (left) blasted European countries for “racism, anti-Islamic and anti-Turkish (trend),” partly in response to a tweet by Swedish Foreign Minister Margot Wallstrom (right) that read: “Turkish decision to allow sex with children under 15 must be reversed. Children need more protection, not less, against violence, sex abuse.”
In “racist” Austria, the police immediately arrested two suspects in connection with an attempt to set fire to a Turkish cultural center in the northern Austrian town of Wels — and at a time of rising tensions with Turkey. By contrast, Turkish law enforcement officials arrested five former gendarmerie intelligence officers just recently — nine years after the murder of Turkish-Armenian journalist Hrant Dink. These officers would probably never have been implicated if the two Islamist allies, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) and Fethullah Gulen, his staunchest political ally when Dink was assassinated, had not turned into each other’s worst nemesis in power-sharing fight in 2013.
Yeni Akit is an Islamist newspaper and one of Erdogan’s media darlings, a kind of Turkish Pravda in its fanatical support of the president. Its editors always find a seat in the elite group of journalists who accompany the president in his private jet traveling to foreign capitals.
The Burkini is a a visible symbol of Islamisation.

And here an interview between Marine LePen and CNN ‘s “secular Muslima Hala Gorani, who regularly throws hissy fits whenever someone criticises Islam:
In France the debate about the Burkini makes high waves, in Germany it hardly caused a ripple. The arguments against this Muslim costume are numerous, most are inaccurate.
This piece of cloth is not contrary to secularism, the hygiene does not interfere, but it is opposed to peaceful coexistence in the (still) not Islamic states, where it is placed on women’s bodies on the beach and showcased in bathhouses.
Besides headscarf, hijab, niqab, burka, besides the wild beards, kaftans and coffee-filters the Burkini is another uniform of religious fighters. These costumes show the worried and increasingly helpless infidel society the status of their Islamization. For Muslims, they show how far they can go without encountering resistance.
Leftist and other Islamophilic media regularly side with Islamic ideology because of their business interests in the Islamic states. They openly come out against the critics of Burkini ban: ” hysteria” (WORLD), police is moving in (TIME), not the Burkini but Justice is dividing society (TIME), police heats Burkini debate on (FAZ). Italy prohibits the Burkini fearing terrorist attacks by Muslims…. Le Figaro reported neutral on the debate. Refreshing!
Shares of Arab investors in German and French companies, the media and / or advertising revenue from United Arab Emirates, among others must not be jeopardised. Our Western values are cheap and on sale, lets take out the roots of our commonality, our common standards and bring it to an end! Thats only a hindrance in the manipulation and control of our citizens. Down with the Ten Commandments! Lets bow down to the rules of Islam!
Daimler Kuwait holds 6.8 percent shares for decades. One begins to understand why Daimler CEO Dieter Zetsche, the guy with the funny white moustache, is so excited about Muslim immigrants. And we don’t know how many institutional and private investors are Muslims, it was never explained. Don’t be surprised when Daimler Benz adds the Islamic half-moon to its star. Allahu Akhbar!
Such shares are insignificant? Stop making me laugh, it hurts! In Manhattan the Qatar Investment Authority (QIA) has acquired ten percent of the Empire State Building. Islam buys into symbols and pillars of Western culture and civilisation. See the “Open Mosque Day” at our national holiday. One calls the French l’Entrisme, “tactics used by some organisations (unions, political parties) with the intent to infiltrate another organisation to get its members to change their business practices and objectives.”
Hello, Sharia Party of Germany!
ALSO WE ARE THE NATION
How could it be otherwise, George Soros has directly or indirectly had a hand in it. In France there is an Islamic association that complains in all places and in all instances about the Burkini ban: the project funded by philanthropist George Soros Comité contre l’islamophobia en France (CCIF). The logo of the CCIF can be seen in the image, below right. This Association is since 2003 working on the Islamisation of France. its representative Marwan Muhammad, who coordinates the actions, explained during a conference, in 2002, in a mosque from Orly:
The CCIF spokesman is, since March 1, 2016 Executive Director
Qui a le droit de dire que la France dans ou trente quarante ans ne sera pas un pays Muslim? Personne n’a le droit de nous nier cet espoir là.
Who has the right to say that France will not be a muslim country in thirty or forty years? Nobody has the right to deny this hope us.

.
The sole surviving member of the jihadist team that attacked Paris in November 2015 has again refused to be questioned by an anti-terror judge, a source close to the case said Wednesday.
Salah Abdeslam, 26, refused questioning a second time on July 7 when his lawyer Frank Berton sought unsuccessfully to get authorities to halt his client’s round-the-clock surveillance in jail,
Berton declined to comment when contacted by the French press agency AFP, Wednesday.
Abdeslam refused to answer questions in his first interview with a French anti-terror judge on May 20.
After four months on the run, Abdeslam was arrested on March 18 in Molenbeek, a Brussels neighbourhood notorious for being a hotbed of Islamic extremism where he grew up.
He was transferred to France to face terror charges on April 27.
Investigators have yet to pin down Abdeslam’s exact role in the November 13, 2015, attacks on Paris bars, restaurants, a concert hall and the national stadium in which 130 people were killed.
After dropping off three suicide bombers at the Stade de France stadium just outside Paris, Abdeslam abandoned his car in the Montmartre neighbourhood then headed for the rundown southern suburb of Chatillon.
An unexploded suicide belt contaminated with Abdeslam’s DNA was found in the area 10 days after the attacks.
The jihadist is thought to have left for Brussels at dawn on November 14 by car with two Belgian accomplices who managed to get through several checkpoints along the way.
Prosecutors believe Abdeslam was in charge of logistics for the Paris attacks, which were planned in Brussels.
Justice Adamson concluded his evidence was, “false and misleading.”
Hamdi Alqudsi sentenced to six years for sending Aussies Muslim jihadists to Syria
Hamdi Alqudsi, from St Helen’s Park, pleaded not guilty to seven counts of recruiting men and assisting them with the intention of facilitating their entry into Syria for hostile activity between June and November, 2013. Leaving court in Parramatta.
A DISABILITY support pensioner with two wives has been sentenced to at least six years jail for helping seven men go to Syria to fight with extremist groups including, Islamic State.
Hamdi Alqudsi called out to his family including his fully veiled wife that he loved them and then raised a finger in a salute to Allah before being lead away by corrective services.
Justice Christine Adamson sentenced Alqudsi to eight years jail with a non-parole period of six years saying that he must have expected the men who he sent to Syria would die in the fighting.
“The offender’s reasons for offending was at least in part that he understood it to be his religious duty to help send men to Syria to fight,” Justice Adamson said.
Hamdi Alqudsi’s wife was in court to support her husband as he was sentenced for helping seven men go to Syria to fight with extremist groups.
Alqudsi was found guilty by a jury of seven counts of helping seven men travel to Syria to fight between June and November 2013. A conviction that carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison for each count.
During the trial the jury heard numerous intercepted phone calls and read transcripts of social media conversations between Alquidsi, his recruits and Australia’s most senior IS member in Syria, Mohammed Ali Baryalei.
The phone calls revealed Alqudsi organised the travel plans of the men to fly to Istanbul, in Turkey, and then on to the border province of Hatay where they would be smuggled into Syria and brought to “Abu Omar” the nickname for Baryalei.
One of Alqudsi’s wives and another family member leaving Parramatta district court after he was sentenced today.
Six of the men made it to Syria and two of the men, Tyler Casey and Caner Temel, died fighting for opposing Islamist rebel groups.
The Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL) has disseminated pictures of elderly jihadists shooting Kurdish prisoners soon after the terrorist group released a video showing indoctrinated children known as the “Cubs of the Caliphate” being ordered to carry out executions in similar manner.
In the pictures, four unidentified gray-haired fanatics are shown dressed in black and pointing handguns at kneeling prisoners in orange jumpsuits, believed to be Kurdish prisoners captured in battle.
The bearded elderly extremists then shoot all four prisoners in the back of the head.
Days earlier, a nine-minute video shows five members of the “Cubs of the Caliphate” wearing desert camouflage also executing Kurdish prisoners wearing orange jumpsuits in the same manner.
THE BURKINI IS ABOUT SEXUAL VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN “Free to molest.”
Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is a New York writer focusing on radical Islam.
The media has found its latest civil rights cause. It’s not the plight of Christians in Muslim countries who are being blocked from coming here as refugees because Obama’s refugee policy favors Muslims. Obama brought over 2,000 Syrians here in July. Only 15 of them were Christians.
It’s not the rising fear of an Islamic terrorist attack in Jewish synagogues. I have lately witnessed unprecedented levels of security at synagogues including guards in body armor and checkpoints. Racist Muslim violence against Jewish synagogues has been a staple of Islamic terrorism for too many years.
But instead the media has highlighted the civil rights cause of the burkini.
The “Burkini”, a portmanteau of “Burka”, the all-encompassing cloth prison inflicted on women in Afghanistan by the Taliban, and “Bikini”, was banned in France along with its parent, the Burka.
While Muslims massacre innocent people in the streets to shouts of “Allahu Akbar”, the media has once again decided to ignore these horrors in favors of broadcasting some petty Muslim grievance.
Does it matter what Muslim women wear to the beach? Arguably the government should not be getting involved in swimwear. But the clothing of Muslim women is not a personal fashion choice.
Muslim women don’t wear hijabs, burkas or any other similar garb as a fashion statement or even an expression of religious piety. Their own religion tells us exactly why they wear them.
“O Prophet! Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks (veils) all over their bodies that they may thus be distinguished and not molested.” (Koran 33:59)
It’s not about modesty. It’s not about religion. It’s about putting a “Do Not Rape” sign on Muslim women. And putting a “Free to Molest” sign on non-Muslim women.
This isn’t some paranoid misreading of Islamic scripture. Islamic commentaries use synonyms for “molested” such as “harmed”, “assaulted” and “attacked” because women who aren’t wearing their burkas aren’t “decent” women and can expect to be assaulted by Muslim men. These clothes designate Muslim women as “believing” women or “women of the believers”. That is to say Muslims.
One Koranic commentary is quite explicit. “It is more likely that this way they may be recognized (as pious, free women), and may not be hurt (considered by mistake as roving slave girls.)” The Yazidi girls captured and raped by ISIS are an example of “roving slave girls” who can be assaulted by Muslim men.
Muslim women who don’t want to be mistaken for non-Muslim slave girls had better cover up. And non-Muslim women had better cover up too or they’ll be treated the way ISIS treated Yazidi women and the way that Mohammed and his gang of rapists and bandits treated any woman they came across.
That’s what the burka is. That’s what the hijab is. And that’s what the burkini is.
And this is not just some relic of the past or a horror practiced by Islamic “extremists”. It’s ubiquitous. A French survey found that 77 percent of girls wore the hijab because of threats of Islamist violence. It’s numbers like these that have led to the French ban of the burka and now of the burkini.
When clothing becomes a license to encourage harassment, then it’s no longer a private choice.
German army has admitted over 60 suspected Islamic State jihadis into its ranks
“German army wants security checks for recruits after admitting more than 60 Isil suspects in its ranks,” by James Rothwell, Telegraph, August 28, 2016 •
The German army has said it wants tougher security checks on recruits after admitting that more than 60 Islamists are suspected of infiltrating its ranks.
In a draft amendment seen by German newspaper Welt am Sonntag, senior Bundeswehr officials said all applicants should be screened by the intelligence services for jihadist links before they begin basic training.
And they disclosed that 64 Islamists are already feared to have embedded themselves within the armed forces, along with 268 right-wing extremists* and six left-wing extremists.
Terrorists are attracted to the army because they can use the training to plot future terror attacks in Germany, the document added.
“The German army trains all of its members in the handling and usage of weapons of war,” it said, “[terrorists] could use those skills acquired in the army to carry out well-prepared acts of violence at home or abroad.”
The proposals would lead to a major overhaul of the country’s recruiting policy as under the current system soldiers are only checked for Islamist ties once they have enlisted.
They would also require an extra 90 military officials to be hired in order to carry out a further 20,000 checks per year.
The reforms, which would cost an estimated 8.2 million euros (£6.9m) per year, are expected to be approved by German commanders next week, Welt am Sonntag reported…
Aussies are just a bunch of dumb hicks who need education Islam. Halal is not an extortion racket, only uninformed people would be suspicious about it, and the burqa in parliament? But of course! Who are we to tell Muslim women what to wear?
Islamo agitprop Anne Aly, freshly sworn in on the Koran, is flabbergasted that in this day and age Aussies still continue to talk about what women wear.
“Surely, as a progressive nation, we’ve accepted that what a woman wears is her choice. Is her right to wear.’
When Parliament resumes in Canberra this year, newly-elected Federal MPs Linda Burney and Anne Aly will walk into the Lower House representing two significant firsts.
