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.
Diana West: Eyeless in Afghanistan
Written by: Diana West

This week’s column:
“Live our values,” Gen. David Petraeus wrote recently to troops in Afghanistan. “This is what distinguishes us from our enemies.”
Unfortunately, this is also what distinguishes us from many of our “friends.” This culture-chasm is what makes the infidel struggle for hearts and minds across Islamic lands so recklessly, wastefully futile, something I was once again reminded of on reading Time magazine’s cover story featuring 18-year-old Aisha. Aisha is a lovely Afghan girl whose husband and brother-in-law, on instructions from a local judge and Taliban commander, sliced off her ears and nose and left her dying to set an example for other wives thinking of running away from abusive in-laws. Only her discovery by U.S. troops saved Aisha’s life.
But where was Aisha’s father? Where was her family? Where were her town’s elders? Where was Hamid Karzai? Turns out her family did nothing to protect her from the Taliban, Time writes. Why? The magazine describes a mixture of fear and shame that I hope still strikes the average American family as so foreign as extra-terrestrials. Time further explains: “A girl who runs away is automatically considered a prostitute … and families that allow them back home would be subject to widespread ridicule.” When Aisha’s father enticed her home with promises of a new husband, the girl refused because she was fearful that her family would sell her into slavery, or murder her.

Four guilty of bungled ‘honour killings’
By Kim Pilling, Press Association
Monday, 2 August 2010
Four men were convicted today of murdering a couple in a bungled honour killing arson attack.
Abdullah Mohammed, 41, and his wife, Aysha Mohammed, 39, were overcome by smoke and fumes after petrol was poured through their letterbox and set alight.
Hisamuddin Ibrahim, 21, wanted to punish a man who was having an affair with his married sister and ordered three men to cause a blaze at his terraced home in the early hours while he was asleep.
But the wrong address was targeted as the blaze was started at the home of the Mohammeds in 175 London Road in Blackburn, Lancashire - instead of the intended address of 135 London Road.
A jury at Preston Crown Court took just 90 minutes following a six-week trial to convict Ibrahim, Habib Iqbal, Sadek Miah and Mohammed Miah (no relation) of their murders. Continue Reading →
9 men convicted of gross sexual abuse of minors
Nine men convicted of child sexual exploitation
Date published: 02/08/2010
Nine men have been convicted for their role in the sexual exploitation of a 14-year-old girl from Rochdale.
The men gave the victim drugs and alcohol and forced her to have sex with men for money.
The girl went missing from home in Rochdale on two occasions, first on 16 February and again on 22 February 2008.
The second time she was missing for 11 days – turning up in Rusholme, Manchester. When officers spoke to her she told them she had been sexually
exploited by a number of men while she was missing.
Over the following weeks the girl was spoken to by a specialist team of officers. She was able to identify the places she was taken and the men who had abused her.
She had been abused by a number of different men as she went from one vulnerable situation to another. In many cases, the men she was associating with were not linked, but they did all identify the child’s vulnerability and take advantage of her.
Superintendent Paul Savill from GMP, said: “This child has been through an absolutely horrifying ordeal at the hands of these men.
“The level of abuse she has suffered is almost beyond belief. She has been treated like a commodity; beaten, threatened and sexually exploited.
“These men took advantage of her vulnerability with no regard for her wellbeing.
“I commend this young girl for her bravery in supporting this case. Even after her ordeal she was able to revisit the sites where she was abused and testify against her abusers in court. This is not easy and can often be the main obstacle we face when trying to bring prosecutions in cases of child sexual exploitation.
“In Manchester we have a specially trained team called the Protect Team who specialise in dealing with victims of child sexual exploitation. They help these young people to pursue prosecutions while coming to terms with what has happened to them and moving on with their lives.”
The Protect Team involves GMP and Manchester Children’s Services working with children’s charities to combat the issue of child sexual exploitation.
Their work involves disrupting, investigating and prosecuting offenders, while offering the support to victims and their families from a specially trained team of professionals.
The victim herself has released a statement about her ordeal: “These people exploit young girls, introduce them to prostitution, feed them drugs and alcohol and tell them they love them. I know this because it has happened to me and it has changed my life enormously. I just hope that people will be more aware of this now and will be able to prevent this from happening to other vulnerable young girls.
The victim’s parents have released the following statement: “We are very proud of our daughter for her courage in assisting Greater Manchester Police with the prosecution of these abusers who caused her such terrible harm. No family should have to endure a nightmare experience like the one we have been through.
“Sadly, we now know that many young and vulnerable teenaged girls are targeted, groomed and abused in this way by such offenders; we support our daughter in hoping that these successful prosecutions will send a message that will help protect other children.”

As David Cameron calls for Turkey to join the EU, PETER HITCHENS on the disturbing picture of growing repression at the heart of ‘Eurabia’
From The Daily Mail
By Peter Hitchens In Istanbul
Last updated at 12:26 AM on 1st August 2010
Among the bayonet-like minarets of ancient Istanbul, an East wind is blowing. It will chill us all… says The Mail On Sunday columnist in the week David Cameron calls for Turkey to join the EU
??????
Down a glum, dark back alley in Istanbul, I found a sinister sight. In a workshop two stern and bearded men were bent over sheets and patches of very black cloth, their sewing-machines whirring urgently.
I was plainly unwelcome and they objected to the very idea of being photographed. I quickly saw why. They were making dark robes and masks for women to wear. They looked to me as if they longed for the day when every woman in sight was clad in their workmanship.
Covered way: Peter Hitchens walks among the robed women in Faith
They knew the women would wear them, because one day, not far off, they would have to. These robes would be, literally, a ‘must-have’ for the women of Turkey.
Those who think of Turkey as a relaxed holiday destination, or as a Westernised Nato member more or less ‘on our side’ need to revise their view.
And that very much includes our Prime Minister, David Cameron, who last week joined in the fashionable chorus urging Turkish membership of the European Union. Mr Cameron plainly hasn’t been properly briefed.
Leave aside the fact that such a step would allow millions of Turks to live and work in Britain, and give us – as EU members – a common border with Syria and Iraq. Mr Cameron really ought to realise that the new Islamist Turkey he so ignorantly praises is much more interested in making friends with Iran than it is in joining the EU. And it is becoming less free and less democratic by the day.
I would say there is a strong chance that we will soon lose Turkey to the Islamic world, much as we lost Iran to the ayatollahs 30 years ago. And there is not much we can do about it – least of all the daft scheme to include this nation in the EU. Continue Reading →
Iranian Mosque drops disguise and becomes a brothel
From Pajamas media.
Holy Shiite! Pious pilgrimage just got more exciting at Imam Reza’s shrine in Iran, where for a reasonable fee (see price list below) a mullah can join any eager pilgrim in holy matrimony of “temporary marriage” with his choice of a lovely, fully hijabed, and properly veiled prostitute for a period between 5 hours to 10 days. Pedophiles welcome: girls as young as 12 years of age are standing by. Not to worry, the mullahs got them covered: all “temps” under 14 must show a written consent from their fathers or male guardians (no doubt on advice from the recently fired, now freelancing ACORN specialists).
We are not making this up.
“Normal” Domestic Violence in Morocco is a Crime in the United States
By Phyllis Chesler from News Real Blog:
image credit: Bosch Fawstin (fawstin.blogspot.com)
So sayeth the Superior Court of New Jersey Appellate Division.
On July 31, 2008, a couple was married by arrangement in Morocco when the bride was 17 years old. They moved to Bayonne, New Jersey, where the new husband found work as an accountant. The husband’s mother came to live with them.
On November 1st of that year, “acts of domestic abuse” commenced. The young girl finally called the police who, on November 22, 2008 (three weeks later) were still able to photograph numerous, visible bruises all over her body, including on her breasts. Her first punishment session lasted for one hour, during which time she cried all the time. This did not stop her husband. He said that he was doing this “to correct her.” The second time, he attacked both her breasts and genitalia, including pulling her pubic hair. Her vagina was very red and swollen—and that is when he administered his ultimate “pedagogical” punishment: He raped her. In addition, on a separate occasion, he slapped her face, “causing her lip to swell and bleeding to occur.” At that time, she escaped “without shoes or proper clothing” through a window and was taken to a hospital by the police.

Truly horrifying video on FGM in the UK of Muslim girls
Some of todays Islamic little shop of horrors
I was just taking a trip through the Religion of Peace website and thought I would post a few of those links over here. Very discouraging and sad that human beings can act this way and then justify it with their ‘religion’ or worse, be motivated to these acts by said ‘religion’.
2. Faisalabad (AsiaNews) – A large number of Christians has fled Waris Pura, on the outskirts of Faisalabad, fearing violence, after Muslims launched a protest action that started at a local mosque after Friday prayers. The risk of attacks against Christians and their property is very high…
3. boy murders his own mother over whatever it is Muslims murder women for. Interestingly all three of these stories are from our ally in the ‘war on terror’, Pakistan. Go figure.
Honour killings and Canada
It seems that Canada had yet another attempt at a Muslim honour killing of a daughter. The good news is Canada’s clear, unmitigated, non-politically-corrected, not-culturally-relativist (even if the good minister for women’s affairs cannot pronounce that word properly) policy making it perfectly clear that killing people is unacceptable and being a matter of culture or religion does not make it OK.
And below, the statement from the good minister for women’s affairs. As usual for these times, it takes a conservative to set truly liberal policies.
Female Genital Mutilation Performed at Cornell University
Female Genital Mutilation Performed at Cornell University
Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) has appeared in the form of “corrective surgery” at a premier American hospital. While we lambaste the practice abroad, some doctors are justifying its use and performing FGM in the United States.
In 1997, it was estimated that 168,000 women and girls had been or were at risk of undergoing FGM. This isn’t just immigrants bringing their cultural practice to the U.S.; as it turns out, FGM is being performed at an Ivy League university. This story demonstrates how our image-obsessed culture is encouraging the mutilation of young girls.
Dr. Dix P. Poppas, head of pediatric urology department at Cornell University’s New York Presbyterian Hospital, one of the premier hospitals in the nation, has been performing clitoral reductions — a.k.a. female genital mutilation — on young girls. The abhorrent practice, according to the good doctor, is humane because it spares girls from the humiliation of having an “oversized” clitoris. He claims the practice is “nerve-sparing” and that he runs tests by prodding and using a vibrator on the young girls after the surgery.
Surgeries, especially ones as delicate as this, can easily go awry, injuring young girls permanently, impeding their sexual lives, reproduction, relationships, and possibly other health complications. And prodding a six-year-old with a vibrator probably won’t tell you whether or not the thousands of nerves in the clitoris that lead to orgasms have really been spared. Not to mention that these follow-up “tests” sound a lot like traumatizing molestation to me.

Mom to be stoned to death in Iran: ‘adultry’
Globe & Mail publishes 14 page doc on the Asqa Parvez murder
This is extraordinary. The Parvez family loathed the Kuffar. For Kuffar, read Canadians. The had 8 kids of which Asqa was the youngest at 16 when she was murdered. They were all born in Pakistan, and the other Parvez children are married to 1st cousins from Pakistan. Yes all 7 of them. Asqa was also set up for a forced marriage. She declined. She was killed.
All of her sisters wear the Hijab or whatever, and Asqa refused.
All of her siblings with the exception of two, were home in their respective bedrooms during the murder. Their respective children were also at the dwelling. This would be something like 15 people in the home during the murder by strangulation. Each was in a bedroom and ‘heard nothing’.
She had friends which were not Muslims, which enraged her father. He also threatened to send her to an Islamic school as I suspect, the public school in which she attended was not ‘suitable’. He was upset Asqa rejected the hijab and was further annoyed his daughter sought a part-time job. None of his other daughters worked and were entirely dependent upon their husbands. After her death he phoned 911 and confessed to the murder. When police arrived at the scene, his arms were covered in blood.
For the first time in her life she went to the movies 3 days before she was murdered. Some of those who went with her, were infidels. For infidels, read Canadians.
Below, some of the article from the Globe & Mail. However click on over to read the 14 page report. Its quite something. Will be hard for the apologists to get around this clear Islamic motive for this murder of a daughter.
Here it is below:
Parvez case: Agreed Statement of Facts
Guest post: Cultural enrichment in France.
I am posting this because what the author below said is correct. Pretty much anywhere in the Western World if a non-white person is the victim of any violence at the hands of a white person it is national news no matter what the circumstances really are, if it can be painted as a hate crime motivated by group membership of some kind.
As a consequence, I feel I should post the odd story of non-white crime on white people to provide that, much loved word of the left, ‘Balance’ in media. Within a day or so, I expect to have a very disturbing video of a trial taking place now in France that is orders of magnitude worse than this, but motivated purely by hatred of white people by some of France’s more ungrateful immigrants.
Eeyore for Vlad
By guest writer from France:
In France, the whole anti-multiculti minded internet (and far, far beyond) is buzzing with this cultural enrichment :
http://www.fdesouche.com/117533-tas-pas-un-06
http://fr.novopress.info/59428/video-de-l%E2%80%99agression-de-bobigny-plainte-au-penal-contre-%C2%AB-bbr-negeu-%C2%BB/
What the video shows is very typical of what France has become in many areas. The video is now known as “Give me your 06”, short for “give me your portable phone number”
The guy who first published calls himself “BBR negueu”, short for “bleu blanc rouge nigger” (french flag colours”) and is from Bamako, Mali.
Apparently, the black guy had left SOME KIND of personal number on his facebook page, which happened to be someone else’s phone. This s.o else received so many angry calls that he had to shut his phone, and has now decided to make an official complaint against the cultural enricher who wrongdoingly used his number.
A copy of the video to be freely downloaded here :
http://dl.free.fr/gnf2CUEAj
The rather leftist but anti islamisation site Riposte Laique, whose influence is rising in France, ha given a very thorough account of the whole story and of the whole buzz, with the various steps leading to a real “explosion” of the connections :
The site duly notes that none of the official media care to speak of the story ( when (this is my comment) any “racist” agression against a black or arab guy is immediatly fully covered by mainstream media and condemned by a whole bunch of state-subsidized associations, and often followed by a declaration of one government official or another ).
The site has noted something else : some of the facebook friends of “BBR NEGUEU” ( the guy who recorded the video and who exclaims at the end : “wow, this is heavy stuff, man, ha ha ha) are also members of OTHER facebook groups :
“Avant que le profil Facebook de BBR Negeu ne soit vidé de son contenu, un lecteur avait eu le temps d’aller voir quelques groupes Facebook auxquels s’étaient joints ses amis. On y trouve le projet de transformer des églises vides en mosquées (16), ainsi que celui de revendiquer des “droits” islamiques et de lutter contre “l’intégrisme laïc” (17).”
Translation :
Before BBR Negueu’s facebook profile was suppressed by its author, a reader was able to visit some of the other groups the friends’ guy belonged to : among them, a group that has the project to transform churches into mosques. Another group claims their “islamic rights” and ask to fight against “secular fundamentalism”Anon
