Feminists today mostly, should be deeply ashamed of themselves.

Somehow, feminists, who once marched to get equal rights before the law for women, for genuine autonomy and so on, have allied themselves with the most misogynistic cult in the history of mankind. All those amazing women who marched for the vote, for reproductive rights, for equality in law, they must be sick not just to see how fast governments and cultures are submitting to Islam, but to see the very feminist groups they founded taken over by Marxists more interested in destroying Western Civilization than preserving the brilliant gains made by women over the centuries.

Propagating hate: Despicable UN rights council breathes life into blood libel

Monday, March 29th 2010, 4:00 AM

The grotesquely misnamed United Nations Human Rights Council has topped its own high standard of absurd lies about Israel – this time resurrecting the medieval blood libel against Jews with a medical twist.

The council has posted on its Web site a venomous letter from an anti-Israel organization called EAFORD, the International Organization for the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination, which is just as grotesquely misnamed as the council itself.

EAFORD, a nonprofit founded in Libya and granted UN accreditation in 1981, has one consuming obsession: to brand Israel a criminal state.

EAFORD’s statement, with the council’s imprimatur, accuses Israel of plucking organs of “dead, kidnapped and killed Palestinians” in a conspiracy involving “Israeli physicians, medical centers, rabbis and the Israeli Army.”

Such is the nature of the Human Rights Council. It legitimizes outrageous, inflammatory lies about Israel while ordering Hillel Neuer of UN Watch to refrain from using the word “regime” when talking about Iran. It ceaseslessly attacks the only democracy in the Middle East while turning a blind eye to genocide, female genital mutilation and human trafficking elsewhere.

Passover, the Jewish festival of freedom, begins at sundown tonight. This would be the perfect time for the Obama administration, which has suffered from the delusion that the council can be reformed, to call it out for the hatemongering farce that it is.

Belgium set to ban burqa.

Belgium could be first country to ban the burka

Belgium is on course to become the first European country to ban the burka after a parliamentary committee backed proposals to make it illegal on the grounds of national security and women’s rights.

The unanimous decision by senior home affairs legislators, with the support of Belgium’s main political parties, has paved the way for a full Belgian parliament vote on a ban to be held in three weeks.

The proposed legislation would ban any clothing or veils that do not allow the wearer to be properly identified, including the full-face niqab and burka that is worn by a small minority of Muslim women.

Those Muslims who ignore the ban could face fines of £22 and a jail sentence of up to seven days unless they have written police permission to wear the garments.

Denis Ducarme, a Belgian MP for the liberal Reformist Movement party that drafted the ban, predicted that legislation would receive full parliamentary backing on April 22.

“This is a very strong signal being sent to Islamists,” he said. “I am proud that Belgium would be the first country in Europe which dares to legislate on this sensitive matter.”

Daniel Bacquelaine, MR’s leader, said the proposed legislation would liberate Muslim women.

“Even if it’s on a voluntary basis, the burka is contrary to the dignity of women. It’s a walking prison,” he said. “We have to free women of this burden.”

But the Belgian ban is likely to face opposition and judicial challenges following Monday’s ruling by the French Council of State that a full burka ban in France was “unconstitutional”.

Fouad Lahssaini, a Green MP, warned that Belgian legislation was “judicially unsafe” because Belgium’s own Council of State, which acts as a supreme court, had not given its opinion on a ban.

“Speed is sometimes necessary in a democracy, but precipitous haste is the megaphone of populism,” he said.

Isabelle Praile, the vice president of the Muslim Executive of Belgium, warned that the ban would damage civil liberties.

“Today it’s the full-face veil, tomorrow the veil, the day after it will be Sikh turbans and then perhaps it will be mini skirts,” she said.

The ban will be imposed on all streets, parks, sports grounds or buildings “meant for public use or to provide services”, with exceptions allowed for religious festivities if municipal authorities decide to grant them.

The ban comes amid controversy over the wearing of Muslim religious symbols in public places and as a high-profile trial of nine alleged al-Queda terrorists takes place in Brussels.

Belgium has been alarmed by the case of Malika El Aroud, a veiled Islamist radical and Belgian national, charged with leading the recruitment of young Brussels Muslims for suicide bombing missions. She was required to remove her burka in court when her trial opened earlier this month.

National debate has also raged over a protracted legal battle by Muslim mathematics teacher who demanded the right to wear a veil while teaching in her classroom.

She has been given until the middle of next week to return, unveiled, to her Charleroi school or to lose her job.

Moscow bombings to “eliminate infidels” -Chechen leader

Yes the religion of peace has a rare moment of honesty. From STRATFOR:

March 31, 2010
Chechen militant leader Doku Umarov said in a video posted on Kavkaz Center Web site and YouTube on March 31 that he personally ordered the two suicide bombings in Moscow, BBC reported. Umarov, leader of the Islamist militants in Russia’s North Caucasus and self-proclaimed head of the “Caucasus Emirate,” described the attacks as special operations to “eliminate infidels and greet the Russian Federal Security Service.”

What a shame that even STRATFOR submits to the pungent bullshitery of the term ‘militant’ instead of terrorist.

DarLink who has done several translations for videos, was kind enough to provide the translation for this one as well. Thank you very much DarLink. This is, as I’m Sure you know, very important and appreciated work.

It is already in your home.
And the trains that blow up today is only a beginning.

Look at this watch dog here in Chechnya, what’s his name, Kabyrov.
What did he get from Russia, what your soldiers, who died here in Chechnya got?Those soldiers who are now cripples, those parents, whose children lost their life here – they are penniless, asking
for money on the streets.That’s what Kabyrov got you.
Look at HIS wealth.That what your soldiers are defending here, Kabyrov wealth and Putin’s.That’s it.You will see nothing of that money.
All they tell you about Chechnya is nothing but lies.
I,the commander of mujahadin of Kavkaz, I am the one overseeing Jihad, I am here in Chechnya, and all Jihad is managed from here.
You get a different picture , so you better crosscheck all the facts.
I want to ,once again , to prevent the blame to be put on us in the future, to warn you that this war is coming to you.

March 31 S.Korea military on alert after warship sinking

BAENGNYEONG ISLAND, South Korea (AFP) – South Korea said Wednesday it has ordered all government officials to stay on emergency alert until the crisis sparked by the mysterious sinking of a warship is resolved.

The officials have been told not to take leave and to stay alert even while off-duty in case of emergencies, the home ministry said, reiterating an instruction first issued Saturday.

The 655,000-strong military and the police force was also ordered on heightened readiness after an unexplained blast tore a 1,200-tonne corvette in two Friday night near the tense border with North Korea in the Yellow Sea.

A huge search for 46 missing sailors, which has claimed the life of one naval rescue diver, was suspended Wednesday due to stormy seas.

The military officially refuses to abandon hope but officers said privately there was no chance anyone could still be alive in watertight compartments inside the sunken hull.

Seoul has not cited any evidence the North was involved, although the defence minister has said a North Korean mine — either drifting or deliberately placed — might have caused the disaster.

The disputed border was the scene of deadly naval clashes in 1999 and 2002 and of a firefight last November.

Navy chief Kim Sung-Chan has said the ship’s munitions storage room did not appear to have exploded and “the ship was broken in two because of powerful outside pressure or an (exterior) explosion”.

Dong-A Ilbo newspaper said US and South Korean intelligence had satellite photos showing submersible craft moving in and out of a west coast base at Sagot in North Korea before and after the sinking. Continue Reading →

Mastercard goes for the sharia banking market

MasterCard offers card aimed at Muslims

Tim Shufelt, National Post Published: Tuesday, March 30, 2010

A March 2010 handout of MasterCards new credit card for Muslims,  iFreedom

A new interest-free credit card, the first of its kind in North America, aims to reconcile Islamic canonical and Western consumer culture.

Until now, observant Muslims have been precluded from owning credit cards on which they pay interest, a violation of shariah law.

The iFreedom Plus Mastercard, set to be available in the coming days, promises no bills, no interest and no credit card debt.

“Everyone living their day-to-day lives, they need a credit card. You can’t rent a car, you can’t travel if you don’t have a card. Everyone wants one in their pocket,” said Omar Kalair, president of UM Financial, a Toronto-based Islamic financing firm that is launching the card with the Mastercard brand.

But banks have little incentive to offer products that don’t bear high interest rates, causing a dilemma for Muslim consumers in Canada, he said.

With the iFreedom Plus Mastercard, holders load up their card with cash in advance, up to $6,000. Each purchase draws down on the account without accruing interest.

The concept follows the Islamic principle that finance should be backed by owned assets. It was approved by a panel of Muslim religious scholars, Mr. Kalair said.

“You’re spending money you actually own,” he said. “There’s a certain degree of stress when you use a credit card. On this one there isn’t.”

Cardholders pay $50 for two years of use and each transfer of cash on to the card costs 95 cents.

And since the new product doesn’t actually involve credit, applicants are approved without a credit check.

The card, which is primarily aimed at younger newcomers, was launched at the inaugural conference of the Usury-Free Association of North America in downtown Toronto.

“As soon as you hit university, all the banks start sending you $500 credit cards,” Mr. Kalair said. “People start using them and start getting in debt. It’s better to start someone on a prepaid.”

Card accounts will be managed by Mint Technology, which operates other prepaid card programs. But unlike other prepaid cards, the iFreedom card is personally embossed and draws on the pervasiveness of the Mastercard brand, Mr. Kalair said.

And on purchases of more than $100, cardholders earn 1% cash back.

Also, Abu Dhabi-based carrier Etihad Airways is offering a 10% discount for customers booking a flight with the card.

“And our community travels a lot,” Mr. Kalair said.

Anti Immigration party surges ahead in Italy

The Northern League is now a key figure in Silvio Berlusconi's  coalition

The Northern League is now a key figure in Silvio Berlusconi’s coalition

The Northern League, an anti immigration party, which has now become pivotal in Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi’s ruling coalition, has seen it’s support more than double in the last five years.

Led by firebrand Umberto Bossi, who once called for the Italian navy to shell boats carrying illegal immigrants towards the country, his victory mirrors those recently by far right parties in Hungary, Holland and France.

In the last regional elections held in 2005 the League secured just 5.7 per cent of the vote but in subsequent polls they have seen their popularity grow and this time it was 12.7 per cent.

James Walston, a political commentator at the American University of Rome, said: “The League has done very well and they will be flexing their muscles for the remaining three years of government.

“They will push for further devolution and immigration and race will also be on top of their agenda and these two are issues which are of concern to many Italians. Continue Reading →

Greek Leftist group claims bomb attack: Opposes immigration

Here is a novelty. A leftist group sets off a bomb in Greece because they are opposed to unbridled immigration and the destruction of Greek culture. This is a first in my experience. Of course, given that National Socialism and the term ‘Front’ often refer to Nazi affiliated groups it is less of a surprise. NAZI of course, was a German Acronym for ‘National Socialist Workers Party’ a left wing group if ever there was one.

From STRATFOR:

Greece: Group Claims Responsibility For Attack
March 30, 2010
Militant group Revolutionary National Socialist Front claimed on March 30 responsibility for the March 28 bomb attack in central Athens, Xinhua reported. A 15-year-old Afghan boy died and his 10-year-old sister was seriously injured. The organization is opposed to immigration, saying that the Greek government does not have a migration policy and the group said there is the risk of foreigners being dominant in the country. Police have yet to identify the claims of responsibility, including that of Guerrilla Group Lambros Fountas, which claimed responsibility through a telephone call to a Greek newspaper.

Police in Hyderabad have been given orders to shoot on sight anyone carrying lethal weapons, stones or sticks in the Old City area following Hindu-Muslim clashes, Indo-Asian News Service reported March 30, citing a statement by Andhra Pradesh state Police Chief Girish Kumar. Two people have been killed and more than 110 have been arrested since the riots broke out March 27, and Kumar said a curfew will be imposed in eight more police districts. A loosening of the curfew will be considered on March 31. India’s opposition Bharatiya Janata Party has demanded a judicial probe on the riots.

Frankly, if I didn’t already know this was factual and as it is presented here, then I wouldn’t believe it either. Add to this, some of the staggering and unimpeachable testimony from current and recent ex members of the American intelligence services about infiltration by Islamic groups, terrorist and just those determined to implement sharia law, and destroy Western liberal democracy without terror.

Whatever one might think of the Liberal Democrats, this election video, ridiculing Labour and the Conservatives as the same thing, is certainly spot on. I’m not sure that the LibDems themselves are much different, but the video is worth watching. Also check out their shop and comments section.
