Links post 1 on totalitarian reactions to totalitarian threats: Sept. 22 – 2014

1. Photographic ID card now needed to buy hair bleach under European anti-terror laws

(The narrative that Islam is the religion of peace will be preserved at all costs. Even if it means that every aspect of day-to-day life becomes severely impacted by a draconian state staffed by mostly muslims who find work-arounds for all the regulations designed to stop Islamic terror)

Peroxide blondes must now apply for photographic ID to buy the strongest hair bleach, under little-noticed new European anti-terror rules.

Model car buffs are also hit, as chemicals they use for fuel are controlled under the new scheme, run by the Home Office.

Anyone wishing to buy such materials must pay £40 for a three-year licence, or face two years’ jail. Shopkeepers can also be imprisoned if they do not check papers.

2. Two dead and many injured in simultaneous explosions in China’s Xinjiang

Photo shared on Weibo reportedly showing Luntai County on Sunday.

At least two people were killed and many more injured in a series of explosions in China’s restive western region of Xinjiang on Sunday, state media reported.

Explosions hit at least three locations in Xinjiang’s Luntai County at around 5pm on Sunday, the Tianshan news portal, run by the regional government, said in a short report on Monday morning.

3. Busting CAIR

4. The Islamic State threatens Canada specifically. 

(Given the recent conviction of a muslim who was caught making over 50 bombs to be used in Ottawa its a threat worth paying attention to)

ISIS has released a video showing a masked gunman standing before captured Syrian troops digging their own graves. After speaking in what sounded like North American — possibly Canadian —English, he appeared to help execute the kneeling prisoners with a handgun.

• The spokesman for the Islamic State of Iraq and Al-Sham called for attacks on Canadians on Sunday in an apparent attempt to deter members of the military alliance that has formed to challenge the terrorist group.

Government begins invalidating passports of citizens who left to join extremist groups

The government has begun invalidating the passports of Canadians who have left to join extremist groups in Syria and Iraq, Citizenship and Immigration Minister Chris Alexander revealed in an interview on Friday.

The minister told the National Post his department had also revoked the passports of several Canadians who had not yet left the country but who had intended to travel to the volatile region to enlist as foreign fighters.

He would not disclose the number of passports Citizenship and Immigration Canada had revoked over the conflict but said there were “multiple cases.” The government says about 30 Canadians are with extremist groups in Syria and 130 are active elsewhere.

In a 42-minute audio speech, Abu Muhammad Al-Adnani urged ISIS supporters to kill Canadians, Americans, Australians, French and other Europeans, regardless of whether they were civilians or members of the military.

5. Sometime during the winter I did a post on how Hollywood, or at least the machinery in the US that pumps out the stuff everyone watches on TV, does what it can to demonize anything with the label ‘conservative’ even when in fact it is classically liberal. The example I used in my post was a screen cap from some TV series on a cult of serial killers and how for a number of frames, the makers of the show connected this fictional cult of Edgar Allen Poe themed serial ritual murderers to The Tea Party in the US. Even though there is zero actual crime committed by them, unlike the massive number of rapes and so on that took place during the ‘occupy’ demonstrations last year.

Last night I was watching The Blacklist with James Spader and noticed that they managed to link what they characterized as a super villain with various politicians. I managed to grab a frame

Thank you all for sending in materials. I am working on a project I have wanted to for a few years now, and have in fact done before in short videos dealing with one term at a time. But I feel that one of the great vulnerabilities we have is that we simply refuse to understand important terms from muslims the way they mean them. This is partially our fault as they do tell us what these terms mean to them. But to preserve our narrative of what we pretend Islam is, we continue to imagine that innocent means a person who has not committed a crime by Western standards as opposed to being a believer and partitioner of Islam etc. I hope to have it posted by the end of the week.

Later today I should have the complete presentation by Sister Hatune Dogan on her time helping Christians and others being tortured, raped and murdered by muslims in the Middle East.

Thank you UK Pete, M.,
