From LGF:   They don’t even have a weather in Israel

The Twilight Zone of CNN 

Clicking “Jerusalem, null” brings you to the page for Israel, of course.

Could be an innocent mistake, you say? But that’s not all—not by a long shot. Their “Weather Location Selector” lists Gaza and the West Bank as countries separate from Israel—and their list of Israeli cities includes several Arab villages which have not existed since 1948.

And in a related outrage, another reader emailed about Samsung’s list of support centers in the Middle East—which includes the imaginary country of “Palestine,” but not Israel.

Pastors Settle ‘Vilifying Islam’ Case

* A frivolous lawsuit that should have been thrown out of court ends in a Mexican standoff:

* The ‘vilification’ occurred when the pastors were publicly reading from the Koran:

Danny Nalliah and Daniel Scot have long been embroiled in this battle for free speech. Why should vilifying Islam, or vilifying Christianity, or vilifying anything you like, be against the law at all?

From CBNNews.com

CBNNews.com – A five-year battle over free speech in Australia’s state of Victoria is over.
Pastors Danny Nalliah and Daniel Scott were charged with vilifying Islam.

They have reached what is being called a mediated settlement in the case.

The Islamic Council of Victoria state has agreed that citizens have the right to “robustly debate religion” and “criticize religious beliefs” within the limits of the law.

Terms of a monetary settlement have yet to be disclosed.

However, both sides must share legal costs.

The two pastors spent more than $500,000 defending their right to criticize Islam.

* From a comment at Dhimmi Watch:

The Islamic Council of Victoria state has agreed that citizens have the right to “robustly debate religion” and “criticize religious beliefs” within the limits of the law.

Wow! Muslims agree that dhimmis have the right to robustly criticize Islam!? Good news, but how long before they spin it?

* ‘Within the limits of the law” obviously means sharia law. Infidels have no right to criticize Islam…

* The Islamic Council of Victoria state has agreed that citizens have the right to “robustly debate religion” and “criticize religious beliefs” within the limits of the law.

Translation: you can “criticize religion within the limits of the law;” but, you will be sued every time you criticize Islam, making it so expensive to defend your rights that eventually, you will keep your criticisms to yourselves because you can’t afford not to.

This is a BIG win for islam; a BIG lose for everyone else.

* Hmm. Looks like resistance against Arab imperialism is building everywhere in the western world. Everywhere from Boston to London, from Rome to Cairns/ Australia and from Berlin to Bern in Switzerland Muslims are determined to build their symbols of Islamic conquest. In the words of Tayyip Erdogan, Turkish PM: “The mosques are our barracks; the minarets are our bayonets …”

In Cologne, Germany, Muslims are building a gigantic mosque with 170-foot tall minarets, very near to the historic Cologne Cathedral. Many Germans are unhappy about the mosque, which will be one of the largest in Europe, and they should be—it’s a symbol of Islamic domination, and this kind of in-your-face provocation has been seen time and time again, in Western country after Western country: Construction of mosque ignites German hostility.

COLOGNE, Germany — The construction of one of Europe’s biggest mosques near a globally famous Christian landmark has sparked a furious dispute in Germany.

Immigration and integration are extremely sensitive issues in Germany, which is home to a Turkish community of several million.

But almost within the shadow of Cologne Cathedral, political correctness was replaced by bitter confrontation, as the city’s Muslims began building a 2,000-capacity mosque whose twin minarets will reach 170 feet.

“Muslims have been here for 40 years, yet people are praying in back rooms,” said Seyda Can, an Islamic theologian at the Turkish Islamic Union in Cologne. “There are 120,000 Muslims in Cologne, that’s 12 percent of the population. We should not hide.” …” With this mosque Muslims will no longer think of their old countries as their home, but of Germany,”

* That will do it, eh? No need to deal with any questions about Sharia or the overarching loyalty to the umma, transcending loyalty to any nation state, that has always been part of Islam? All that will just fly out the window as soon as this mosque is completed, I suppose?

“Two hundred years ago the first Protestant church was built in Cologne. It was a long process for Protestants to be accepted but today, of course, they are. Why can’t we be the same?”

* Because Islam is not the same. Protestantism is not incompatible with the European separation of religion from state power. Islam traditionally recognizes no such separation. What assurance can you give us that Muslims in Germany will acquiesce to this separation without any intention to impose Sharia in the future?

“Es gibt kein Grundrecht auf den Bau einer Großmoschee!” (Ralph Giordano).

“There is no fundamental right to build a mega-Mosque”

Some comments from LGF:

* Muslims in Germany behave the way muslims in every other European country do, I doubt ” hiding ” is the right word. Lurking might work.

* Are the Germans going to submit to Muslim screeches to prayer five times per day from those 170 foot tall speaker towers?

* Leading the charge is Ralph Giordano, a prominent Jewish author, who wrote recently that Germany is witnessing a “clash of two completely different cultures” and questioned whether they could ever be reconciled.
Stating that he had received death threats for his opinions, he added: “What kind of a state are we in that I can face a fatwa in Germany?”

For Mr. Uckermann, who belongs to the conservative CDU party of Chancellor Angela Merkel, Mr. Giordano’s comments smashed a long-held taboo in Germany.

“Giordano broke down the wall,” he said. “Before, if you criticized this monstrous mosque, you were a Nazi. But we have a problem with the integration of Muslims. It’s a question of language and culture.”

* Comment: No. Its not about language and culture. Its about a cult that uses religion for conquest and ‘booty’- its about the most vile and evil ideology that openly seeks to enslave and subjugate us.

Who says one person can’t make a difference? Hope this guy can afford protection services.

Notice that the left-leaning Der Spiegel complains about the “far-right” who are opposing this mosque, just like I am “far right” according to Wikipedia.

Far-Right Mobilizes against Cologne Mega-Mosque

* The slanderous header above is typical for the hysterical wankers from the far left who believe it is necessary to smear anyone opposing Islamofascism with words like ‘right wing’ or ‘Neo-Nazi’- just like many, if not most Arabs believe that Jews are, by being Jewish, already discredited.

* A right-wing citizens’ initiative is protesting against Germany’s largest mosque, which is being built in Cologne. They have enlisted the efforts of the far-right from Austria and Belgium in their fight against the “Islamization of Europe.

* Raise the alarm! And circulate to the City Fathers of Cologne, copies of the various Rules for Dhimmis as unearthed by Bat Ye’or’s researches – highlighting the fact that non-Muslims in Muslim lands were NOT PERMITTED TO BUILD HOUSES OR CHURCHES HIGHER THAN ANYTHING BUILT BY A MUSLIM. Ergo: every time Muslims set out to build a great big mosque in a western city, with minarets overtopping neighbouring churches, etc., it is an attempt to assert Domination.*

* Moonbatterish, pathetic slander from the left:

Jews, Neo-Nazis protest huge mosque in Germany

Neo-Nazis? Here is yet another indication of the deleterious effects of the abdication of the European political mainstream. Its refusal to confront and deal with the many and various effects of rapid, large-scale Muslim immigration into Europe leaves the field open to unsavory groups. Then the presence of such groups taints the whole issue and give ammunition to the Leftists and jihad apologists who claim that anyone who opposes the Islamization of Europe is a crypto-Nazi anyway. In a sane Europe, prime ministers and parliaments would be discussing Sharia, deciding just how much of it, if any, they intend to allow, and moving sternly against those who are trying to implement Sharia in their states. But we do not live in a sane age in Europe’s history.

“Huge mosque stirs protests in Cologne,” by Harry de Quetteville in the Telegraph, link to JW

* The slant of this article is an absolute piece of shit and a LIE. I was at the main demo and know what really happened!! Just another journalist trying to make hay where there is none.

BOO to Harry de Quetteville for lying and deceiving so blatantly!

Activists Lunatics from the Islamic parties chant slogans against British author Salman Rushdie during a protest in Lahore June 25, 2007. A group of hardline Pakistani Muslim clerics has bestowed a religious title on Osama bin Laden in response to a British knighthood for the Rushdie, whose novel “The Satanic Verses” outraged many Muslims around the world. The placards top line says, “Curse Salman Rushdie,” and the bottom line, “Duty to kill.”

You rarely get them dumber than that:

Here’s a Muslim “scholar,” Dr. Zakir Naik, explaining why Muslims must build mosques in non-Muslim countries while prohibiting churches and temples in Islamic states—because they know the “truth” and infidels do not.

Yesterday we were informed that a group in Denmark was planning to burn an effigy of Mohammed (instead of a witch) at the traditional midsummer festival. The Danes made quite a production of the bonfire — the soundtrack has “Light My Fire” on it…

The last thing you see before the action rolls is this:

For a Mohammedan-free Denmark!

Update: We have the translated Danish text for you

We declare:

Saint Hans’ Eve has always celebrated the tradition of burning away the evil, in earlier times symbolized by the witch, who was supposedly directly connected to Satan. And if the witch was not burned then the harvest could not be safely brought into the house.

Now a new evil has arrived in Europe, an evil that lies and kills in the name of their so-called God. An evil that springs from the so-called Prophet Mohammed. Therefore, in our time, it is he who symbolizes evil and it is not just one harvest that will disappear, but all of Western Europe’s future that will vanish if this evil is not dispatched to Hekkenfeldt [i.e. Hell, literally the Hekla volcano in Iceland — BB].

Therefore will we burn the so-called Prophet Mohammed, on June 23, 2007, in three nameless places.

We burned Mohammed in three different places across the country. We now release the video from the first burning. The next videos will be released on July 23 and August 23.

For a Mohammed-free Denmark!!!
Hold on to your helmets, Vikings. You’re in for a wild ride…

From AFP: Iran says Rushdie death fatwa still stands.

Iran said on Sunday that a fatwa ordering the death of British writer Salman Rushdie issued by its revolutionary leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini still stands after his knighthood by the queen.
“The stance of the Islamic Republic of Iran with regard to this issue has not changed from what was put forward by the Imam Khomeini,” foreign ministry spokesman Mohammad Ali Hosseini told reporters.

The Indian-born Rushdie, 59, was forced to go into hiding for a decade after Khomeini issued the 1989 death sentence over his book “The Satanic Verses,” saying it insulted Islam.

Khomeini’s successor as supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, said in January 2005 he still believed the British novelist was an apostate whose killing would be authorised by Islam.

Update:

Hirsi Ali:

“By knighting Salman Rushdie, the queen has honored the freedom of conscience and creativity cherished in the West, making her a symbol of the essence of our way of life”

In “An honor worth defending” in the IHT Ayaan Hirsi Ali calls on the West to recover its spine and defend its culture and civilization. But there is a curious phrase in the opening paragraph:

Imagine if a crowd of Englishmen marched in London carrying effigies of Muhammad, peace be upon him, stacks of the Koran, miniatures of the Kaaba in Mecca and Saudi flags. Imagine if they then built a bonfire and hurled the items one at a time into that fire screaming “Long Live the Queen!” each time the flames shot up.
“Peace be upon him”? This is an interjection that pious Muslims add after uttering the name of a prophet. Yet Hirsi Ali has referred to Muhammad as a tyrant and a pervert. She has not presented herself as a Muslim except in a broad cultural way. So I wonder: did she add this interjection herself, as a means of identifying herself as a cultural Muslim? Or did an editor at Tribune Media Services (which distributed this piece) or the IHT add it in as an exercise in politically correct sensitivity?

Robert Spencer from Jihad Watch is asking this question, and rightly so.
Anyway, Hirsi Ali goes on:

This would be the equivalent of what hardline Muslim students did in the eastern Pakistani city of Multan, to take just one example, when they burned effigies this week of Queen Elizabeth II and Salman Rushdie, chanting “Kill him! Kill him!” in response to his recently bestowed knighthood.
[…]

Westerners have too often shrugged their shoulders at the trashing of their icons – such as when the queen is burned in effigy – by the foot soldiers of tribal barbarism. This perceived weakness makes the foes of the West more ferocious and helps recruit more jihadists.

Instead the West should join together to vigorously defend its symbols and civilization that, with all its flaws, still offers the best life to the most people.

By knighting Salman Rushdie, the queen has honored the freedom of conscience and creativity cherished in the West, making her a symbol of the essence of our way of life.

* Something that cannot be said for the idiot prince Charles who wants to be known as ‘defender of the faith’s’….

A reminder: One of the reasons why our media is so perverted

During last month’s street riots in France, Fox News ran a banner during a news segment, reading: “Muslim riots.” Billionaire Saudi Prince al-Walid bin Talal, who owns 5.5% of Fox News, was unhappy with the tagline:

I picked up the phone and called Murdoch… (and told him) these are not Muslim riots, these are riots out of poverty. Within 30 minutes, the title was changed from Muslim riots to civil riots.

Talal gained notoriety after 9/11 when he blamed U.S. policies for the terrorist attacks.

Fox News spokeswoman Irena Briganti refused to confirm or deny that the call took place but “acknowledged the network changed the banner after receiving complaints.”

Muslim Grievances

Danes At It Again

Gates of Vienna reports that those irrepressible Danes are at it again. In their midsummer festival, they traditionally burn an effigy of a witch; but this year they chose a different personality for the effigy: Update on the Burning of Mohammed.

From correspondents in Jakarta/Herald Sun

* STOLEN Muslim land drives the hatred of Indonesia-based extremist network Jemaah Islamiah for the west, the group’s jailed military boss told CNN in an interview broadcast today.

* No surprises here. All the world belongs to the soldiers of Allah, and land once conquered must never fall back to the infidels. But that doesn’t mean that any infidel country is safe: Muslims are commanded to kill unbelievers until all the world belongs to Allah:

* Muslim (1:33) The Messenger of Allah said: “I have been commanded to fight against people till they testify that there is no god but Allah, that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah…”

* Terror in the Koran

Abu Dujana, one of South-East Asia’s most wanted men, was arrested by Indonesian anti-terror police on June 9 as he rode a motorcycle with three of his four young children.

Police say he is linked to several major bombings that have rocked Indonesia in recent years, including the 2002 Bali blasts that killed 88 Australians.

Analysts, however, have said they are sceptical of his involvement in that bombing, which left a total of 202 people dead.

He has claimed he was against the 2003 bombing of the Marriott hotel in the Indonesian capital Jakarta.

In the interview with CNN at a police station in the central city of Yogyakarta, Dujana, shown handcuffed and smiling, said he thought “Americans or other civilians can become a target – that’s how I see it”.

Asked where the hatred of the west came from, he replied: “Many lands owned by Muslims have been taken away by our enemies. America is part of it, like in Palestine and other places.

“We demand those governments return those lands and let us put Sharia law in place.”

Asked where it said in the Koran that it was acceptable to kill innocent people, he said: “I didn’t read it in the Koran. It’s based on the teachings of our teachers, clerics, especially what Osama bin Laden first said.”

* Comment from JW: This is misleading, as it implies that what his teachers and clerics have told him is contrary to the Qur’an. In fact, however, the point of controversy here is not over whether or not it is acceptable to kill innocent people. That is not in dispute, and the Qur’an forbids it (5:32). The controversy is actually over whether or not American, British, Israeli and other citizens of non-Muslim states are innocent at all. And on that moderate Muslim spokesmen have never spoken unequivocally.
Jemaah Islamiah has been linked to al-Qaeda in the past, though analysts say the group operates independently.

Asked by the British interviewer whether he personally was a legitimate target, Dujana giggled.

“This is how it is. Islam has rules and everything is based on Sharia law,” he said through a translator.

“If you ask me if you are a legitimate target, if there is clear evidence your country has attacked Islam, then we are permitted to kill you.”

Muslims united against Australia and the Jooozzz

* Another classic case of Islamofascist behavior, from the ‘we’re all Hezbollah now’- department:

Richard Kerbaj/The Australian

AUSTRALIA’S Sunni Muslims have pushed aside ideological differences with their Shia counterparts to form a united front against Israel and declare their support for the Iranian-backed terrorist network Hezbollah.
The unity among the two Muslim sects, which have been at war with each other for centuries, comes as the nation’s Jewish community accuses top Shia spiritual leader Kamal Mousselmani of creating hatred towards Jews by calling Israel a “terrorist” state and expressing his allegiance to Hezbollah militants.

The Howard Government yesterday also accused Sheik Mousselmani of sending the wrong message to his followers through his adverse views on Israel.

Sunni Muslim leader and community spokesman Keysar Trad yesterday said his sect largely championed Sheik Mousselmani’s support for Hezbollah (Party of God), which was revealed by The Weekend Australian.

“Sunnis outside of Lebanon, yes, they still have a great deal of respect for Hezbollah,” he said.

But Mr Trad, who does not believe the Lebanese-based Hezbollah is a terrorist group, said Sunni Muslims in Lebanon were less inclined to back the terrorist organisation because of political differences with the Shi’ites.

“I don’t believe that Hezbollah is a terrorist organisation,” he said. “I agree with (Mousselmani) that the state of Israel has … consistently engaged in acts of terror which have brought a great deal of pain to the poor Palestinian population and the Lebanese population.”

The new mufti of Australia, Sunni spiritual leader Fehmi Naji el-Imam, last year called Hezbollah militants “freedom fighters” during an anti-war rally in Melbourne. Sheik Fehmi’s spokesman said yesterday the cleric could not be reached.

Al Reuters: Propaganda Tool for Iran

As Iranian thugs beat men dressed in Western clothing and force them to drink human waste, the Reuters wire service publishes absolutely blatant Iranian propaganda intended to “humanize” Mahmoud Ahmadinejad—in their “Oddly Enough” category: Iran president turns to butcher for economy tips.

Story from above, continued:

Sunni Muslim spiritual leaders contacted by The Australian, including several who formerly served on John Howard’s Islamic advisory council, yesterday refused to put their support for Hezbollah on the record for fear of upsetting the federal Government and jeopardising future community funding.

A senior Sydney-based cleric who refused to be named said “you won’t see any Muslim standing with Israel against Hezbollah even if they hate Hezbollah’s politics”.

The Australia-Israel and Jewish Affairs Council executive director, Colin Rubenstein, said Sheik Mousselmani was an embarrassment to his community whose views brought into sharp focus the Shia extremism on which Hezbollah was founded.

“One would think that the sheik should be telling his followers to obey Australian law rather than being so supportive of such an organisation with such an appalling track record,” he said.

Hezbollah’s military arm, the External Security Organisation, is a proscribed terrorist organisation in Australia, and supporting Hezbollah’s political and military wings is illegal under UN counter-terrorist financing declarations.

Dr Rubenstein said Hezbollah was committed to the destruction of Israel and espoused “genocidal intentions for Jews everywhere”.

This follows The Weekend Australian’s revelations in which Sheik Mousselmani attacked the Howard Government’s support for Israel against Arabs and said Hezbollah was a resistance group, not a terrorist network.

It was also revealed that national security authorities have stepped up their investigations into the nation’s Shia community, whose members were not as closely monitored as Sunni Muslims.

Attorney-General Philip Ruddock yesterday said Israel was entitled to exist and the federal Government’s foreign policy was against any terrorist group that threatened Israel’s sovereignty.

“Those who threaten its sovereignty do so, in our view, in breach of international law and we’ve always counselled not only Hezbollah but Hamas and Fatah to recognise the right of Israel to exist,” he said.

That, in a nutshell, is still pussyfooting around the issues…

* What it really shows it that Australia has been invaded by 350 000 Islamofascist genocidal maniacs who are a fifth column among us and who work towards our demise while we pay for it.

Update:

This comes as three Australian Muslims are arrested in Lebanon with suspected ties to Hizballah.

A SYDNEY accountant is believed to be among three Australians arrested in Lebanon over suspected links to an Islamic terrorist group.

The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade confirmed last night three men were arrested in Tripoli, Lebanon’s second-largest city, over the past few days.

One of the men is believed to be Ibrahim Sabouh, an accountant from Auburn in Sydney’s west who moved to Lebanon with his wife and three children a year ago. …

Some reports say the men may have links with the Islamic political and paramilitary group Hezbollah.
