AL-AHRAM EDITORS RUN PHOTOSHOPPED PICTURE OF MIDDLE EAST PEACE TALK PARTICIPANTS

The Tundra Tabloids comes across this hot one, from the blog Arabist.net:

“That’s what al-Ahram thinks, apparently, since it cannot bear to see Mubarak not be the first on the red carpet at the recent Washington Middle East peace meeting. BloggerWaELK uncovered the photoshop job carried out by the al-Ahram editors, which has making the rounds on the internet:”

Zero takes lead of the entourage

After Al-Ahram gets done with it, Egyptian president 
for life Hosni Mubarak leads the group

The copy and past Mubarak in front of Zero himself, which is after all, fitting, for that’s how the Islamic world views him anyways. KGS

I really hope morons like the guy in the first video, stop and think about the victims in the second and third

TROP has a link over to Weasel Zippers showing a smug, rat tailed useful idiot that stole a Koran from some guy in a park to stop the guy from burning it. He now appears to be high on both whatever it is he takes to make him cut his hair that way, as well as enough sanctimony to make masturbation an act of love.

I think it bears mentioning, that the Koran is the sole source of inspiration for the acts in the videos below. Of course, it is also the inspiration for countless horror of length and breadth too large to even dent in this humble blog let alone post. For example, Mohamed’s prohibition on adoption so that he could have sex with his adopted son’s wife alone has cost untold misery to orphans in the Islamic world beyond imagination. But in terms of contemporary horror, and burning of things…

How about homes of Christians in Muslim nations…..

And of course, people. (This clip has been posted on Vlad a few days ago, and it is harsh harsh harsh so be warned and also forgiven if you do not feel the need to see this clip for a second time)

Coming August 31: ‘Direct Access’ Stimulus Grants for the Muslim Brotherhood

From Christine Brimm @ Big Peace

Think of it as ACORN reborn, with a slice of Jihad on the side.

On August 31, this coming Tuesday, the Muslim Brotherhood-associated “Coordinating Council of Muslim Organizations” (CCMO) will bring 25-30 Muslim leaders of 20 national Muslim groups to attend a special workshop presented by the White House and U.S. Government agencies (Agriculture, Education, Homeland Security, Health and Human Services etc.) to provide the groups “funding, government assistance and resources.”  The workshop will apparently provide special access for these Muslim Brotherhood organizations: the organizers pledge to provide “direct access” and “cut through red tape.” Government and Muslim groups will hold an Iftar dinner (breaking the fast of Ramadan) after the workshop.

The event was announced in an email newsletter sent August 27 by the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation terrorism finance trial, long associated with the Muslim Brotherhood, the global Islamist network (great backgrounder here from Hudson Institute).   Here are three key paragraphs from the email (the entire article on the August 31 event from the ISNA email is pasted below this post as reference):

This year, a phenomenal next step has been made where government iftars become coupled with workshops to provide resources and benefit the Muslim community. The US Department of Agriculture (DOA) and the Coordinating Council of Muslim Organizations (CCMO) have paired the first of such events, scheduled for August 31, 2010.

…Leaders from Muslim organizations around the nation, particularly social service organizations, are invited to a workshop with representatives from the DOA, Faith Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, Health and Human Services, the White House, Department of Education, the Department of Homeland Security, and more. Twenty five to thirty Muslim leaders representing 20 Muslim organizations are expected to attend the workshop.

According to a representative of CCMO, this workshop is designed to clarify how Muslim nonprofits, mosques, Islamic centers, and social service organizations can strengthen their communities through more direct access to opportunities provided to social service agencies at the Federal level. “It will hopefully help cut through some of the red tape and shine light on the many opportunities for funding, government assistance, and resources that we just don’t know about at the local level,” said Elsanousi.

Muslim fasting causes retarded babies.

Anyone surprised? From BBC

Pregnant women told not to fast during holy Ramadan

By Divya Talwar BBC Asian Network

Pregnant woman Fasting is not advised in pregnancy

Pregnant women who fast during Ramadan could be putting the health of their unborn baby at risk, according to a new study.

Fasting during the month is one of the five pillars of Islam, although pregnant women are exempt if it poses a risk to their health.

However, some Muslim women still choose to fast, despite the health implications.

Aanisa Butt, 32, fasted during both of her pregnancies.

“I wouldn’t fast every day, I would do one day of fasting followed by a day of rest. Doing alternate days helped me keep my energy levels up,” she said.

Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar and a time when Muslims across the world fast from dawn until sunset.

“When Ramadan falls in the summer, it can be really difficult to stay without food and water the whole day and if you’re pregnant it is even more hard,” said Aanisa.

“But I wasn’t worried about my health or my baby’s. I think Allah gives you strength and he protects your unborn child.”

Aanisa Mum-of-two who fasted during both pregnancies during Ramadan

Although Aanisa gave birth to two healthy sons, if women fast for long hours during their pregnancy it can result in problems for their unborn child.

A study by scientists in the United States, based on census data from the US, Iraq and Uganda, found that pregnant women who fast are likely to have smaller babies who are more prone to learning disabilities in adulthood. Continue Reading →

Fidel Castro Fascinated By Book On Bilderberg Club

From CBS News

(AP) HAVANA (AP) – Fidel Castro is showcasing a theory long popular both among the far left and far right: that the shadowy Bilderberg Group has become a kind of global government, controlling not only international politics and economics, but even culture.

The 84-year-old former Cuban president published an article Wednesday that used three of the only eight pages in the Communist Party newspaper Granma to quote – largely verbatim – from a 2006 book by Lithuanian-born writer Daniel Estulin.

Estulin’s work, “The Secrets of the Bilderberg Club,” argues that the international group largely runs the world. It has held a secretive annual forum of prominent politicians, thinkers and businessmen since it was founded in 1954 at the Bilderberg Hotel in Holland.

Castro offered no comment on the excerpts other than to describe Estulin as honest and well-informed and to call his book a “fantastic story.”

Estulin’s book, as quoted by Castro, described “sinister cliques and the Bilderberg lobbyists” manipulating the public “to install a world government that knows no borders and is not accountable to anyone but its own self.” Continue Reading →

Southern Sudan Unveils Plans for Animal-Shaped Cities

From BBC:

By Mary Harper BBC News

Daniel Wani, Undersecretary for the Ministry of Housing and Physical Planning in the Government of South Sudan, explains a map of Wau in the shape of an giraffe - 18 August 2010 A long boulevard will run down the neck of giraffe-shaped Wau

The authorities in southern Sudan have unveiled a $10bn (£6.4bn) plan to rebuild the region’s cities in the shapes of animals and fruit.

Elaborate blueprints for the new cities have already been drawn up.

The regional capital, Juba, will be relocated and designed in the shape of a rhinoceros. Wau, the capital of Western Bahr el-Ghazal state, is to be a somewhat unwieldy giraffe.

Sudan: Country at a crossroads

Southern Sudanese are due to vote in a referendum on independence next year.

In Juba, the office of the regional president is situated where the rhinoceros’s eye should be.

In Wau, the sewage treatment plant is appropriately placed under the giraffe’s tail. Continue Reading →

Obama defends Victory mosque and as usual, totally misses the point

He also said today, that Islam has always been a part of America. In that he is correct. Jefferson started the Marines in order to stop Islamic piracy and constant jihad upon the seas. I suppose one might also say that is a contribution to US society in a way. In exactly the same way that Ebola motivated the creation perhaps, of some specific wonder antibiotics.

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama on Friday endorsed plans for a Muslim mosque two blocks from ground zero in New York City, declaring that “Muslims have the same right to practice their religion as anyone else in this country.”

In remarks prepared for delivery at a White House dinner celebrating the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, Obama said all Americans have the right to worship as they choose.

“That includes the right to build a place of worship and a community center on private property in lower Manhattan, in accordance with local laws and ordinances, Obama said. “This is America, and our commitment to religious freedom must be unshakeable.”

Obama emphasized the point as New York City is immersed in a deeply sensitive debate about whether a mosque should be built near the site of the World Trade Center’s twin towers.

It was the president’s first remarks about the mosque controversy. The White House previously called the matter solely a local one.

At the dinner attended by two Muslim-American congressmen, Obama acknowledged that hot-fire emotions the planned mosque and cultural center have stoked.

“Ground Zero is, indeed, hallowed ground,” the president said.

Iranian Baha’i sentanced to 20 years for “spreading Mischief”

One of the most serious charges in sharia law is the highly flexible, ‘spreading mischief upon the earth’ which of course means stopping Muslims from doing exactly that when and howsoever they like. As a consequence, 20 Baha’i leaders have been sentenced to twenty years in Iranian prisons. I wonder if that law is what Obama meant when he praised all the fantastic contributions Muslims have made to America today.

For those of you who have not met a Baha’i, they are, at least in my experience, the nicest bunch of people you would ever hope to meet. Naive as hell though about Islam, but terrifically nice people. This found via the important site, The Religion of Peace

    WASHINGTON, DC – Seven Baha’i leaders who have been in prison for two years were sentenced to 20 years in prison by an Iranian court, according to Baha’i activists who spoke with the media.

    The five Baha’i men and two women had been charged with several baseless and unsubstantiated crimes which carry the death penalty, including espionage, propaganda activities against the Islamic order, and spreading “corruption on earth.” Their attorneys are in the process of filing an appeal.

    “This is an outrageous miscarriage of justice and one more example of how the Iranian regime is a gross violator of human rights and religious freedoms,” said Leonard Leo, U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) chair. “The prosecutions and sentences are, pure and simple, politically and religiously motivated acts, and the Commission calls for the unconditional release of these seven individuals.” Continue Reading →

Liberal party shuts down investigation into security at airports

BREAKING NEWS:  Ignatieff Liberals shut down Conservative government’s bid to study airport security screening

Today, at the request of Conservative MPs, the House of Commons Committee on Public Safety reconvened to discuss recent media reports that suggested some individuals routinely board aircraft without being visually identified.

In an astonishing act, the Ignatieff Liberals, led by Mark Holland took over the Chair position of the Committee and proceeded to unilaterally shut the meeting down.

The safety and security of Canadians remains a top priority for Our Government.  Shockingly, it is such a low priority for the Ignatieff Liberals they refuse to even discuss it.

Instead, Liberal Committee members chose to play partisan games, use delay tactics and cancel the meeting altogether.

By failing to take this security and public safety issue seriously, the Ignatieff Liberals show yet again they’re not in it for Canadians, they are only in it for themselves.

More Melanie: This one is… just read it.

From the Spectator:

Um… who needs protecting from whom here?

Sunday, 8th August 2010


An illuminating post on the excellent Muqata blog (backed up also here) reveals what western pro-Palestinian war (aka peace) activists don’t tell us what happens — it would seem frequently — to the women amongst them when they sally forth to protect the ‘defenceless’ Arabs against Israeli ‘aggression’. They get sexually assaulted by the defenceless Arabs.

Back in July, Ha’aretz reported the story of a former Arab convict named Alladin who would find these young female peace activist staying in nearby villages, he would tell them he was on the run from the Shabak (Israel security), and ask them to hide him. These young female dupes would of course be happy to help an Arab on the lam from the Israeli authorities and let him sleep in their rooms.

So far one girl initially came forward about the attempted rape against her. She was found wandering the village of Umm Salmuna (near Bethlehem) in a state of shock, so who knows if the attempt actually failed. But in the end [she] retracted her story due to pressure to ‘not hurt the cause’. Haaretz had learned that representatives of both the popular protest movement and the PA have since applied pressure on the American peace activist as to prevent her from making the story public.

The story could have ended there, except that there’s more. Apparently, quite a number of female protesters have been sexually assaulted and molested by the Arabs they are protesting for. One attack occurred just recently in Bil’in. After the army fired smoke gas towards the rioting crowd of ‘peace’ activists and Arabs, the protesters ran. One Arab decisively used the smoke cover as an opportunity to sexually assault one of the more seasoned female activists.

The problem has gotten so bad, that some female protesters have stopped showing up to the protests…Two months ago, some of the radical leftwing organizers started running secret workshops… The subject? ‘How to deal with sexual harassment during direct activities against the occupation’. The workshop is for female and transgender activists.

You’d have to have a heart of stone not to laugh.

Afghanistan War: Petraeus Tightens Rules of Engagement

I have received some informed comments that say that for the first time ever, the US could see some serious resistance to orders by rank and file soldiers because of the grotesque, and now even more so, rules of engagement in Afghanistan. Please click here for the article on how Petraeus has made it even harder to win, or even defend yourself, in the Afghan theatre.

For an example of how absurd the ROE were even before Petraeus, please read this interview Vlad Tepes did with John Bernard a week or so ago.

Parents’ fury at council plans for halal-only menus in primary schools

Leftists please take note: When there are only a few Muslims in a free nation, they are of course, and as they should be, free to bring their own dietary needs so long as those products do not violate local laws on food handling, preparation, ingredients and animal welfare. The fact that Halal food usually violates all of these not withstanding, once you have a few more Muslims they demand that schools provide Halal, (food stuffs prepared in the Islamic manner) and other public institutions must supply and pay for it, for the Muslims who go there.

Up to now, some leftists may go along with it all, as so many have no real understanding of what freedom of religion was supposed to mean, namely, people being free to practice their religion, free of state persecution, but not free to break laws or impose it on others. But now we see as soon as Muslims feel they have enough percentage to get away with it, they impose their lifestyle choices on the rest of us. This is a critical shift. Having granted Muslims the freedom to break local animal welfare laws to slaughter animals in a barbaric fashion, Muslims demand that no one else have the freedom to make their own choices outside of the Islamic set of options.

This is in England. If it happens there, the home of Magna Carta, and arguably the birth place of the very idea of individual liberties, it can, and will, happen here, wherever here happens to be for you.

Parents have expressed fury at plans to serve pupils halal-only menus for school dinners.

In a move which has also enraged animal welfare groups, only meat from animals killed and prepared using Islamic teaching may be allowed at 52 primaries in Harrow.

Critics say the plan puts the needs of Muslim children before those of other faiths, while parents say they have not been consulted over the scheme.

Harrow high street: Schools in the borough are to serve halal meat under council plansHarrow High Street: Schools in the borough are to serve halal meat under council plans

Schools are free to opt in to the programme or look elsewhere for their meals from the start of next month, according to Harrow Council.

The local authority is thought to be the first in England to consider insisting on a halal-only menu apparently after recommendations of dietitians.

According to the 2001 Census, Harrow is one of the most religiously diverse areas in Britain with fewer than 50 per cent of the population Christian, a fifth Hindu and 7 per cent Muslim and six per cent Jewish.

The council says the composition of the area’s primary schools is now significantly different, and the Muslim population is larger.

Using the halal method, animals are slaughtered by being slashed across the neck and being left so that the blood drains from the carcass.

The religious ritual, which does not allow the animals to be stunned beforehand, is considered cruel by campaigners and is exempt from animal welfare laws.

Harrow resident Sheila Murphy told the Harrow Observer: ‘I am appalled at Harrow Council’s decision to serve only Halal meat in the borough’s schools.

‘The Farm Animal Welfare Council has lobbied the government in the past to get the Kosher and Halal method of slaughter banned.

‘The Halal method, in which animals are slaughtered by a single slit to the throat, is the only way of killing livestock allowed under Islam but this method is deemed cruel by some animal-lovers, who object to the slow death it involves.

‘Harrow Council’s decision is also taking away the choice of children and their parents over what meat they eat and I urge Harrow residents to make their views known to Harrow Council and get this decision overturned.’ Continue Reading →
