  1. Re Dr Bostom’s rememberance of Bulgaria’s Islamic past, from which I quote:

    “The national Bulgarian epos is rich with moving songs praising the resistance of courageous Bulgarian men and women to being converted to Islam and isolated from their people. One such example is the song about brave Balkanji Yovo. Despite the terrible abuses he was subjected to by the Turkish officials, so that he would agree to the Turkification of his sister, he fearlessly tells his tormentor “Hey voivoda, I will give my head, but I will not surrender Yana to Islam”

    This may be a contemporary rendition found on youtube:

  2. @ Richard: From what I am seeing here, the present government, their accomplices and most of the Media are rather committed to pack-raping “free speech” 🙁

    Charlie Hebdo, which I always saw as a rabid leftist satirical paper has attacked many many Western/Christian/Conservative icons – but recently they started to show courage and attack the greatest global cancer of the moment. The ratio of their sending up islam to sending up other holy cows is still – at guess – 1 to 20, but it’s there – and I have quietly started to admire them for it. For the moment they are still “fashionable” enough for the brainless Leftists, but I wonder how long it will be before they become “villains” for the “herd”.

  3. That us why I said we would see how committed the French are, the French include the citizens not just the self anointed elite.
