(No one should fund the person who actually trashed one of the most prosperous and successful nations and then asks for external money from other successful systems to propagate the ideas that ruined them)

An Austrian tourist who claimed she was raped by a policeman’s son in Dubai in the United Arab Emirates has been told that she is facing jail herself – for having sex outside of marriage.

  1. #4 The NRA is a group of individuals that have banded together to protect their rights to own guns, they are not funded by the firearms manufactures. Anyone that objects to citizens banding together to work to protect their rights needs to examine their knowledge of that group.

  2. UK – Extremist nailed Koran to pub wall in protest against Islamic centre plans

    A MEMBER of a far-right group nailed a copy of the Koran onto a pub which is due to be transformed into a Muslim education centre.

    Graham French also wrote “EDL” on the wall of former Melrose Arms in Shotton Colliery – which has been the centre of demonstrations by the English Defence League in the village, after planning permission to change the use of the building was granted.

    […]When French was arrested, he said it was a “revenge attack” after he was followed home from the pub one day by a female wearing a Burka

    French pleaded guilty to causing racially or religiously-aggravated criminal damage.

    Jaxon Taylor, defending, said the damage involved “a small amount of graffiti” and disputed that it could have cost £500 to fix.

    The case was adjourned until February 12 for a report to be prepared about French.

    Chairman of the bench, David Carr, said: “Not only is the daubing of the words racially aggravated, but the nailing of the Koran to the wall makes it even worse.”

  3. PAKISTAN – Briton Who Called Himself Islamic Prophet Sentenced to Death in Pakistan

    A Briton who declared himself an Islamic prophet has been sentenced to death in Pakistan on charges of blasphemy.

    Mohammad Asghar, a 65-year-old British citizen of Pakistan origin, was also ordered to pay a penalty of one million Pakistan rupees ($10,000).

    “Asghar claimed to be a prophet even inside the court. He confessed it in front of the judge. Asghar used to write it even on his visiting card,” prosecutor Javed Gul told AFP.

    The Briton was arrested in Sadiqabad near Islamabad in 2010 after writing several letters to others claiming he was a prophet.

    Asghar was charged under Section 295-C of the Pakistani constitution which states:
    “Whoever by words, either spoken or written, or by visible representation or by any imputation, innuendo, or insinuation, directly or indirectly, defiles the sacred name of the Holy Prophet Muhammad, shall be punished with death or imprisonment for life, and shall also be liable to fine.”

    Blasphemy charges involving any insult to Islam or impersonation of religious figures are severely dealt with in Pakistan.

  4. SYRIA – Mohammed Qasim Al Nasooh imam of a mosque in eastern countryside of Idlib , who later became commander of the Ahbab Al Sahaba battalion, commits incest with his granddaughter.

    In the video the girl named Yosra Mohamed Rashid confesses that he is her grandfather and says that they had no bad intentions. Please note the way in which the girl is being treated – this after being abused by her Grandfather –

  5. I don’t get it . He is a commander and an Iman. How is that Mohammed Qasim Al Nasooh can’t marry a young woman as a 2nd, 33rd or 4th wife?

  6. If Graham French was followed home he should have filmed it. But most of us are not prepared to film suspicious activity. I know I am not.

    A female in a burka is a threat. The Zeta use prostitutes all the time to gather intel , pass message and other work. I am in no way implying the the female in the burka was a prostitute. What I am implying that just because a person is a female that there are not a threat or cannot be a threat.

  7. #1 I could care less what Mugabe wants. He has rule Zimbabwe for 32 years or almost a 3rd of century. They have a friendly government in South Africa.

    Zimbabwe used to export food. Now I understand they import food. It is because of his policies that they have no money.

    He was discriminated against and grew up to become a bitter man. People who use to discriminate against him are no longer around and have not been for a long, long time. At some point he has to take responsibility for his own actions.

  8. JAN 24 2014 – Tunisia: Islamist protests against new consitution

    Some 800 conservatives protested today in Avenue Habib Bourguiba to denounce the new constitution, arguing that the moderate Islamist party Ennahdha, the leading force in parliament, made huge concessions to the secular opposition in fear of events similar to those taking place in Egypt, where a military-backed government is cracking down on Islamist groups.

    The protest in Tunis was organized by the Tahrir Party, known for its aims to restore Caliphate and institute an Islamic state – the very goals Ennahdha has given up to remain in power.

  9. I’ll betcha I know what the Egyptian Army is going to do with that small but intractable group of hard-line, pro-Morsi Islamists. With the near-unanimous support of the Egyptian people, they are going to arrest these religious fanatics in the middle of the night and “disappear” them out in the Egyptian desert. What else can they do? Islam is a harsh creed that produces surplus males by the millions. Nobody will miss them…it’s what has to happen… Of course, Barrack Hussein Obama won’t like it very much…
