Mr Putin laughed off the US sanctions that targeted his inner circle, promising the Russian government would “have the back” of those on the list, and even opening a personal account at a sanctioned bank as an act of solidarity.

“Far as I’m aware, it’s an average bank,” Mr Putin said on Friday of Bank Rossiya, the only institution on the list of sanctions targets released by the US Treasury Department on Thursday. “I don’t have a personal account there, but I’ll open on on Monday.”

  3. Egypt sentences 26 members of the Muslim Brotherhood to death

    An Egyptian court sentenced 26 members of the Muslim Brotherhood to death on charges of forming a “terrorist cell” aimed at attacking the Suez Canal.

    The 26 defendants have been sentenced in absentia. Meanwhile, the Northern Cairo Criminal Court sentenced a 27th defendant to 15 years in prison.

    The accusations include forming a terrorist cell in Cairo, Dakahliya, and Dammietta in order to target ships in the Suez Canal.

    The Egyptian Grand Mufti Shawki Ibrahim ratified the death sentence on Wednesday.

    In February, Egyptian security forces have escalated their crackdown against the Muslim Brotherhood, the major opponent of the July 3 military coup, handing down jail sentences for protesters totalling 945 years, and fines exceeding EGP 500,000.

  4. 3. I believe our side of the isle is making a huge mistake.

    First; Many Muslims actually believe their own propaganda and are fooling themselves. Thereby making the belief look less harmful to the world. For example: Music many believe it is not haram. Many of us on this side of the isle believe it is a form of Taqiyya. I thought that for a while as well but it isn’t. ‘I believe that they believe’ or at least most of them do in western countries.

    Somethings they justify in their own mind such as apostasy and cutting a hand off and so on that is unaceptable for us. Some use cultural beliefs and comparing it to other religions rather then what it is in order to distract from the real evils of Islam. The problem is they actually do believe it.

    Second: we have to accept there is a lot of propaganda about Islam that even most Muslims believe which is why they are the target of their own ideology. We have to accept there are two forms of Islam being propagated. Which are the abrogated parts of Islam and what is actually Islam.

    Third and my point:
    Rather then saying “all of Islam is bad” which I believe it is. We should be pointing out why they are mistaken and being targeted by their own Ideology.

    Fourth:
    If we do this we can actually accomplish what is taking place in Indonesia where 2 million Muslims are leaving the Ideology per year. Rather then targeting all Islam as something we should ban. I’m sorry but as long as that propaganda is alive and they believe it we will not win the argument to ban the evil Ideology.

    Does this make sense?

    Thank you

  5. UK ‘must do more’ to tackle Sahel-Sahara terror threat (BBC, March 21, 2014)
    http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-26668665

    “The UK needs a “bigger footprint” in Mali and other Sahel-Saharan countries to fight extremism, a committee of MPs has said.

    The Foreign Affairs Committee pointed to a “mismatch” between the UK’s vision of a secure western Sahel-Sahara region and its “very light” diplomatic work.

    It said jihadists had “put down roots” in the region, which was a “new frontline of violent extremism”.

    The government welcomed the report and said it was “working” in the region.

    The Sahel runs along the south of the Sahara Desert, and the western Sahel-Sahara region includes Mali and Mauritania.

    The committee said concerted international action was needed to tackle the causes of instability and stop the “contagion of extremism from spreading further”.

    Extremists had capitalised on poor economies, weak state security and anger at “corrupt governing elites”, it said.

    Committee chairman Sir Richard Ottaway said the UK should “help build indigenous security capacity”….”

  6. Ox AO: “Rather then targeting all Islam as something we should ban. I’m sorry but as long as that propaganda is alive and they believe it we will not win the argument to ban the evil Ideology.”

    Rather then targeting all Communism as something we should ban. I’m sorry but as long as that propaganda is alive and they believe it we will not win the argument to ban the evil Ideology.

    Rather then targeting all Sexual Deviancy as something we should ban. I’m sorry but as long as that propaganda is alive and they believe it we will not win the argument to ban the evil Ideology.

    I feel you, Ox AO, I feel you.

  7. I’ll answer your question Ox AO regarding what is practical.

    Firstly, the organizations set up to promote and propagate their memes do not say “Rather then targeting all Kufar/Capitalists/Breeders as something we should ban. I’m sorry but as long as that propaganda is alive and they believe it we will not win the argument to ban the evil Ideology.” They are unequivocal, without questioning the veracity of their assumptions, and the ‘moderates’ get their comfort believing a hard liner is watching over them.

    Secondly, you have the truth. They don’t. You have one simple sentence to point something out, while they have to contextualize and set the stage to make something appear right when it wasn’t even right then.

    All Islam has to have is exposure and ridicule. That’s it. Every comedian in town to plunder it’s wealth of idiocy. But the Communist-dhimis, the feminists and demasculinized socialists, won’t let you say a word, by Law! The enemy is within.

    Rather then targeting all Socialism as something we should ban. I’m sorry but as long as that propaganda is alive and they believe it we will not win the argument to ban the evil Ideology.

    Don’t ban anything, let the majority deal with the minority in open debate without anyone getting imprisoned or killed. Oh, that’s the internet, and Mohammadans, Communists, Socialists and Sexualists have all shown their hands in trawling and censure in this, the Great Offended. The abnormalized children that gain life through a little bit of death. Death cults.

  8. Perfectchild Thank you. I just feel we are fighting an up hill battle. Our biggest fight is against those Muslims that believe the belief is peaceful. They don’t even know they are wrong AND being targeted by their own Ideology.

    The leftists that side with Islam listen to feelings not facts. Leftists hear the honesty in those Muslims with the mistaken belief.

    There has got to be a way to confront these people easier then what we have been doing.

    Suggestions?

  9. Ox-
    You making a great deal of sense. We’ve got a better chance surviving Islam than annihilating all Muslims. If we could find a way to civilize the Horde, to separate them from Islam, we’d have a chance. Those who converted to Christianity, for example, are net additions to our societies.

    I think you’re right about Muslims finding a way to shield themselves from that napalm oozing out of their evil doctrine. If they were all sincere Salafists they would’ve self-destructed by now.

    I don’t think ethnic Muslims – products of generations of first cousin marriages – are smart enough to manage taqiyya. Yes, there are the crafty ones who tell the rest what to think, but as you say: “Many Muslims actually believe their own propaganda and are fooling themselves. Thereby making the belief look less harmful to the world.”

    I read Gaubatz nodding and pleased at finally hearing an echo of my own dire conclusions. But taking the maximalist position – however tempting – is neither practical nor just. Then again, I really don’t care which Islam they practice. Like people from the huge Armenian population here, I’ll never feel safe where Muslims are part of the environment.

    If they had free and easy exposure to Christianity, they might be redeemed.

    You make a great deal of sense. We’ve got a better chance surviving Islam than annihilating all Muslims. If we could find a way to civilize the Horde, separate them from Islam, we’d have a chance. From what I’ve seen converts to Christianity, for example, are net additions to our societies.

    I read that Gaubatz article nodding, pleased to hear an echo of my own dire conclusions. But taking the maximalist position – however tempting – is neither practical nor just. An “up hill battle” indeed.

    If only they could be exposed – “equal time” maybe – to Christianity, they might be redeemed in the secular sense of the word. That message, the “good news” after all, is so positive and compelling, all of us – even the non-Christians among us – would live in a safer world.

  11. Yucki: everything you said is right on. I would like to know a better way show the false reality many Muslims have.

    Christianity in Indonesia is working very well but what are they doing right?
    We should be focusing on that.

    Thanks

  12. Ox- Exactly.
    -Reverse multiculti as ruthlessly as it was imposed.
    -Take back our schools, public places, etc.
    -Look at what the Christian missionaries were able to accomplish.

  13. Yucki look at the Pahlavi family in Iran and the Kemelist in Turkey as well as the moderates in the Egyptian government, I don’t have any hope for a moderated form of Islam to take hold and last very long, in the end it always reverts to the jihadist attitude.
