Links and news for Sept 4 2013 – 2

1. Mark Steyn: The Blasphemy Police

In 2010, the bestselling atheist Richard Dawkins, in the “On Faith” section of the Washington Post, called the pope “a leering old villain in a frock” perfectly suited to “the evil corrupt organization” and “child-raping institution” that is the Catholic Church. Nobody seemed to mind very much.

Three years later, in a throwaway Tweet, Professor Dawkins observed that “all the world’s Muslims have fewer Nobel Prizes than Trinity College, Cambridge…

2. Pro Ikhwan (Muslim Brotherhood) rally in Stuttgart Germany

3. For anyone curious about the level of honesty, tactics or war of ideas of the EDL’s ideological opponents please look at this. Notice that this is not about alternating points of view. This is about the most base tactic they can think of to stop the EDL from being allowed to get out its message. (If anyone cannot see Facebook’s page, Ill put a screen capture of the site here.)

4.Egyptian Army offensive against Sinai Islamists continues with deadly chopper missile strike. (H/T EDL Buck)

  1. Steyn et al Dawkins et al have damaged western civ so much I just have to laugh.

    Via their works: Dawkins destroyed Christianity in the UK. Steyn was on board for the destruction of Christianity in Iraq. No it wasn’t just them but they rararara-Ed the processes.

  2. #5 Really? but, but McCain met these people. They are good people.

    McCain the fool’s claim to fame is the he is the son and grandson of an admiral so they could not lick him out of the Naval academy, flight school or from flight status. He kept the faith while being imprisoned on tortured. I’ll acknowledge that. At the end of the war he repatriated to the U.S. dumped his wife because in sickness and health is just guidance and got a younger richer model. Using her families money and connections and his war record he got elected.

    It has been downhill since then.

    Anyone remember Keating 5?

    The during September of 2008 during the fiscal crisis he said that he was suspending his campaign and said he did not know much about finance.Yet he has sat on the senate finance committee for many years and come from a family with money. Maybe his wife keeps him away from the books and she would be a better Senator than him. At least in terms of finance she might be better.

    “Economics is not something I’ve understood as well as I should,” – McCain

    Apparently he does not much about world events or military affairs either.

  3. That’s a harsh critique of McCain, Red, but I can’t see where you’re wrong. I never get the impression that he really understands the events around him and I think that is because he actually doesn’t. How could he not know that the people who are fighting Assad are basically the same guys who did 9/11, while Assad and the Alawite Kingdom, are not the guys who did 9/11.

    They all remind me of 1950s era American tourists getting off the plane in their Hawaiian shirts and stumbling around some ancient country, wondering in their loud voices why these people don’t even have an IHOP. Americans are so ill-informed and incompetent at world affairs that they should immediately withdraw their services as the world’s policemen, and keep to their own country before they kill us all with their incompetence. At this point they are so confused that they are actually backing their own worst enemies and they don’t even seem to know it. They are booting the ball repeatedly into their own net, folks, and cheering themselves on as they do it. Dumb and dumber and dumber and dumber…
