1. Every now and again, its worth putting in a decent video about political correctness.

2. UAE debates a burka ban. (Phyllis Chesler)

For the first time in history, and in the wake of the December 1st stabbing death of an American teacher in Abu Dhabi by a woman wearing a burqa, Gulf region media are questioning whether the burqa is a security risk.

Historically, other Muslim and Arab governments, as well as feminist activists, have not only questioned the burqa—they have also abolished it.Such countries include Turkey, Egypt, the Maghreb, Iran, and Afghanistan. Educated Muslim women living in large cities in these countries went unveiled for at least 100 years. However, Saudi Arabia and environs, and rural regions in the Arab and Muslim world, have never really abandoned the Islamic Veil. It has now returned with a vengeance across the Middle East, Central Asia, and parts of Africa.

3. Socialist Workers Party in Tower Hamlets fights ‘Islamophobia’

(As Samuel Clemens once said, “History does not repeat itself. But it does rhyme.” And this is a good example as Germany’s National Socialist Workers Party was heavily invested in Islam. In fact Adolph felt that Europe would be better if Islam was the European religion and not Christianity)

4. Germany: Mosque Closed by German Authorities For Alleged Support to ISIS

The city-state of Bremen has also prohibit an association to which the mosque is attached, the Culture and Salafist families Club (KUF), said the interior minister of Bremen, Ulrich Mäurer, cited in a statement.

The association is also suspected of making propaganda for ISIS. Its premises and 17 of its apartments were also raided.

There is no tolerance for this kind of associations, said Mr Mäurer in the release. We use all legal means to prevent such associations, to prevent attacks in Germany and departures in war zones for future jihadist fighters, he continued.

The sermons in the mosque used to glorify the jihadists in Syria, considered as models that should be emulated, the statement of the local authorities said.

5. Clifford D. May: Rise of the neo-Ottomans

Turkey should have been part of the solution. Instead it’s become part of the problem. The problem, of course, is the spread of jihadism throughout the Middle East, North Africa and beyond.

Turkish policies have been aiding and abetting Jabhat al Nusra, an Al-Qaeda affiliate; the Islamic State (ISIS), which has turned large swaths of Syria and Iraq into killing fields; the Islamic Republic of Iran, still ranked by the U.S. government as the world’s leading sponsor of terrorism and well on its way to becoming nuclear-armed; and the Muslim Brotherhood, including Hamas, the group’s Palestinian branch.

Thank you Wrath of Khan, M., DM., and all. It was a relatively slow day, which is odd for a Friday. Perhaps all the news of the devastation post Friday prayers wreak Friday will show up in the news Saturday.

  1. This is absurdistan pure…

    Court tells France to pay damages to Somali pirates (BBC, Dec 4, 2014)
    http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-30326397

    “The European Court of Human Rights says France violated the rights of Somali pirates who had attacked French ships and has ordered compensation for them over judicial delays.

    The nine Somali pirates should get thousands of euros because they were not immediately brought before a French judge, the court ruled.

    One is to get 9,000 euros (£7,000) and the others sums of up to 7,000 euros.

    The judges faulted France for keeping them in custody for an extra 48 hours.

    The pirates had held French citizens hostage after seizing a French-flagged cruise ship and a French yacht in 2008….”

  2. ‘Morale poor’ among UK crews at RAF Akrotiri, Cyprus (BBC, Dec 5, 2014)
    http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-30338659

    “Raids against Islamic State are being conducted from RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus “with broken jets and tired and fed-up people”, BBC Newsnight has been told.

    In a letter, a serviceman said the base was being neglected, morale was poor and ground crews had taken to eating humanitarian rations meant for Iraqis.

    Newsnight also understands only 16 of 102 RAF Tornado jets still meet full combat standards.

    An RAF spokesman dismissed many of the claims as “factually inaccurate”.

    But a Ministry of Defence source confirmed an incident in which ground crew had been given rations had happened.

    The letter writer’s identity is known to the BBC, but we are protecting his anonymity.

    He also detailed how there is no hospital at RAF Akrotiri, even though there are daily operations involving live ammunition.

    And he alleged that the placing of services with contractors meant that Cypriot cleaners at the base were being charged to the UK taxpayer at three times the annual cost of an airman’s salary.

    An RAF spokesman responded: “In our opinion this letter is factually inaccurate. In layman’s terms, it is completely full of holes.”

    A source at the MoD said the facilities, as well as conditions of service, at Akrotiri are comparable with all RAF stations around the world.

    Despite the response, there is little doubt the conditions at Akrotiri are not as good as those service personnel had got used to on operations in Afghanistan, and that many of the RAF’s people are exhausted after years of continuous deployments.

    The serviceman alleged that “the costs and quality of the catering and retail support are a disgrace” and that crews there are led by a chain of command, “so laced with budgetary fear… that no one knows what the plan is”.

    Newsnight has established that during a recent visit by an air vice marshal, one sergeant from II Squadron complained about the quality of the food available to crews working overnight on Tornado jets….”

  3. Seventeen migrants die in Mediterranean – Italian navy (BBC, Dec 5, 2014)
    http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-30344627

    “Seventeen migrants have died while attempting to cross the Mediterranean in a small inflatable boat, according to the Italian navy.

    The navy said it had recovered 16 bodies aboard the boat, and one person died after being rescued. More than 70 survivors were also found.

    Most of the deaths were reportedly caused by hypothermia or dehydration.

    Last month, an Italian mission to rescue migrants was replaced by scaled-back EU coastal patrols.

    The deaths reported on Friday are believed to be the first since the Italian-run Mare Nostrum operation began to be phased out in favour of the Triton programme, a multinational effort run by the EU’s Frontex border agency.

    Mare Nostrum policed waters close to the shores of Libya, where most of the migrant boats set off.

    Triton has a much smaller budget and restricts patrols to the EU’s coastal waters….”

  4. Somalia suicide bombs kill seven in Baidoa (BBC, Dec 5, 2014)
    http://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-30353758

    “At least seven people have been killed in a twin suicide bomb attack in the town of Baidoa in southern Somalia.

    The attack, which also wounded more than 20 people, happened outside a restaurant frequented by residents and local journalists.

    Two of the dead are journalists working with London-based Somali TV organisations, says BBC Somali.

    Various armed groups have been battling for control of Somalia since President Siad Barre was ousted in 1991.

    Captain Hassan Nor told the Associated Press news agency that a suicide car bomber drove into a crowd, detonating explosives. A second blast rang out when another suicide bomber walked into the restaurant….”

    • 3:26 enough. Can’t see Vice giving him 11:34.
      And something’s wrong with his face – smooth & shiny. Hormones?

  9. BILL WHITTLE SMACKS ONE OUTA THE PARK WITH THE FIREWALL

    “BLACK SKIN PRIVILEGE”

    Enjoy!!!!!

    Don Laird

    • Mr. Whittle can do all the ranting he wants. It won’t change the fact that we, the American people, are still willing to listen to race-baiters and democrat politicians wiling to throw the black population to the wolves…
      Shiela Jackson-Lee recently was on the house floor telling her constituents not to be “selfish.” That America is more than that. Really? Black men shouldn’t be hired because Central American men need to provide for their families?
      Is ANYONE listening to this?

      • More are then you think, most of the people in the smaller towns are ignoring the prejudice news sources and going to ones that report all of the facts. Yes that still leaves a large number of idiots who want to believe everything bad about the US and nothing good but their numbers are falling not raising.

      • #3 I would be more encouraged by this public stand if I thought more people know who the National Socialist Workers Party are.

  10. #3 Does this grey haired lady not notice the massive change in the culture of Tower Hamlets? Does she still feel comfortable walking the streets of the borough after dark?
    Does she understand that the majority of citizens that she grew up with have moved because of the increased danger and cultural disruption that has taken place in Tower Hamlets?
    Where was she when native Britons were fleeing the crime and degradation of their community? Did she not notice it? And now she wants to stand up for the Pakistanis?
    Where was she when the native Britons needed help?

  11. #4 I really don’t get the mind think of Western gov’ts. Let the jihadis go… Maybe they will die and we won’t have to deal with them. In the case of their surviving, make it clear that they cannot enter a Western country again.
    Let them go. Let them die for the cause but… never allow them to re-enter a western country and, make that clear as they leave.

    • More than that, Babs. Promise I won’t get arrested for providing material support for terrorism, and I’ll encourage them to go!

  12. 1/ The most impressive aspect of this subversion is surely the way its architects managed to conceal it behind all those false fronts, such that almost no non-specialist you bring it up with, North American at any rate, has ever even heard of the Frankfurt School. Marcuse might ring a faint bell, something to do with the Sixties, and Fromm, a vaguely positive association, freeing people somehow or other from psychological problems to do with sexual repression. But regarding other major theorists and their ideas, and the School’s on-going home-wrecking, civilization-replacing effects, its role in deforming the culture to the point where truly monstrous ideas have come to seem pretty much inevitable, the natural course of events, fairly normal – a blank. It has been a masterful disappearing act, all the more in this information age, a very clever hiding in plain view.
