1. Four players banned from Iranian women’s national team for failing gender tests

Women in Iran may not be allowed to attend football matches between male sides for religious reasons, but the beautiful game is popular among the Islamic republic’s female population.

Players in Iran’s burgeoning professional women’s football league will now be subjected to mandatory gender tests, after it has been revealed that four national team players were found guilty of not being women. The Telegraph reports:

(I wonder if the LGBTETCETC organizations will get their labia in a twist over this one)

2. Pakistan’s Walk towards Sharia

By Meer Khan

Negotiators representing Pakistani Taliban insurgents said that there could be no peace until Pakistan embraces Islamic Sharia Law and US-led forces withdraw completely from the neighboring Afghanistan. Sami ul Haq, founder of Harkat-ul-Mujahideen and the head of the TTP’s three man talks team, said that there could be no peace in the region while there is NO SHARIA but democracy. The tough conditions appear to deal a blow to hopes that peace talks with the Pakistani government could end the TTP insurgency that has rocked the country since 2007.

(It will be interesting to see what Gaza authorities to do and with an ancient and priceless Greek artifact from classical civilization that represents a god)

5. Failed Somali pirate prosecution fuels terror trial fears

The failed prosecution of an alleged Somali pirate — and the fact that that failure could leave him living freely, and permanently, inside U.S. borders — is highlighting anew the risks of trying terror suspects in American courts.

Just a few weeks ago, Ali Mohamed Ali was facing the possibility of a mandatory life sentence in a 2008 shipjacking off the coast of Yemen — an incident much like the one dramatized in the film Captain Phillips. Now, the Somali native is in immigration detention in Virginia and seeking permanent asylum in the United States

Thank you Fjordman, M, and many others. More to come.

  2. Feb 11 2014 –Iranians mark 35th anniversary of the Islamic revolution

    Hundreds of thousands of Iranians celebrated the anniversary of the 1979 Islamic Revolution on Tuesday by marching through the capital, Tehran, and chanting anti-US and anti-Israel slogans. State media reported similar rallies around the country. The traditional anti-American rhetoric came despite a significant political shift in Tehran, with the election last year of President Hassan Rouhani who is pursuing a policy of outreach to the West.

  3. U.S. to unveil $300m in Afghan withdrawal aid

    The United States will unveil $300 million Monday in new aid initiatives for Afghanistan for the impoverished nation as the war economy winds down and global troops withdraw, a U.S. official said.

    The programs are being rolled out by the U.S. Agency for International Development.

    […]A second, $92 million five-year program will help develop a more skilled workforce, partnering American universities with 10 Afghan universities. This program went into force on January 1.

    […]News of the programs come as Congress has conditioned further aid assistance to Afghanistan on the signing of a bilateral security deal to guarantee the presence of U.S. troops after all combat forces pull out this year.

    So there is a video. It does not mean as much unless one can track done its provenance. I believe it to be true, but what were her ALLEGED crime?

    Where id dit take place?

  5. Blue: Muslims will use kufar technology to destroy the very science which created the technology, and they will ululate with delight at the irony of it. Much like when they danced on 911 celebrating how they used our technology to destroy our structures. It made them feel a great deal less inferior.

    In a way, it makes sense that leftists and muslims would be allies at this time. Both want to destroy that which make them feel inferior, rather than do the work to be part of the process of creation.

    Most are simply unable to create anything other than genetically compromised Tard-itos. Ann Barhard explains why. [v. Rita’s link yesterday.] The info won’t come as a surprise to any of us, but her presentation of it is devastating.
