Sooner or later, information has to contain some truth or it renders itself obsolete even to the most fastidious leftists.
This small section pointed out by Hermes is an interesting chink in the armor of the politically correct narrative.

Leftist media destroys a truly decent human being for holding an opinion of the non-leftist kind.
Small consolation I suppose but at least someone bothered to actually expose this horror.
Intro by gates of Vienna:
The philosopher Henrik Gade Jensen is one of the finest debaters in Denmark. He served as a press advisor to the former Minister of Ecclesiastical Affairs in Denmark, serving one year during the Anders Fogh Rasmussen government before his career was ruined.
As is now the case with Lars Hedegaard, Gade was completely destroyed — in public — by false accusations and ‘guilt by association’ tricks designed by left-wing extremists. It has been ten years since it happened, and Gade still suffers from it. He was targeted because he was — and is — on the ‘wrong’ side of the fence: he criticized immigration policy and the EU. In 2003 he was brought down by a deliberate media smear campaign.
The video shows how this man of integrity is destroyed by false ‘Nazi’ allegations from a left wing extremist backed up by the mainstream media. After legal action, he forced the media outlets to apologize, acknowledge that they had no evidence for their slurs, and compensate him.
The video provides some kind of satisfaction for Gade Jensen. Dissidents outside Denmark in similar situations may find encouragement watching it.

Reuters does criminally dishonest headline on Israeli response to hostile fire
The story:
Jihadis in Syria fire into Israel and Israel responds by destroying machine gun emplacements.
How does Reuters spin the headline?
Israel fires into Syria after Golan attack on troops
JERUSALEM | Sun Mar 24, 2013 8:07am EDT
(Reuters) – Israel said it fired into Syria on Sunday and destroyed a machinegun position in the Golan Heights from where shots had been fired at Israeli soldiers in a further spillover of the Syrian civil war along a tense front.
It was not immediately clear whether Israel held Syrian troops or rebels responsible for what a spokesman for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said had been a deliberate attack on Israeli patrols in the occupied territory.
It is stunning how the mass media manages to make it look like Israel is the aggressor when it is defending itself from aggression and usually with phenomenal restraint given all they did was destroy the equipment used to attack them.
PROTESTOR ARRESTED IN TORONTO FOR MOCKING ISLAM
JDL: Canada

Thank you “BlogWrath” for writing about this protest, otherwise, no one will know about the threat of being arrested when we tell the TRUTH about Islam…

Canadian MUSLIMS enjoy freedom to say “Homosexuals and lesbians should be “exterminated in this life” – Imam of Montreal, Abou Hammaad Sulaiman Dameus Al-Hayiti
=========
It was only two weeks ago when the Supreme Court of Canada declared the criticism of homosexuality to be a hate crime. It seems that in Toronto Islam is also under the same high protection. Today, at a protest somebody was arrested for mocking Islam.
As I wrote earlier, a protest event was scheduled for March 20 at the offices of the Liberal Party of Ontario. It was caused by the fact that the Minister of Labour of our ruling party, Yasir Naqvi, endorsed an Islamic book, which (in accordance with the Koran) recommended wife beating as a tool for solving family problems. Despite thepublic outrage, the Liberals chose to ignore the issue and turn a blind eye on Muslim misogyny.
The protest attracted a tiny group of participants carrying signs like:
“Beat wife only for honour & discipline, Holy Koran 4:34”
“Those that deny Islam will be killed, Holy Koran 33:16”
“Expose jihad with free speech or die”
However, what they lacked in numbers, they made up for with their creativity. Eric Brazau, who was one of the organizers, was dressed like an imam and accompanied by a woman in a full Muslim niqab.
Using a microphone, he gave a mock Muslim sermon, assisted by the veiled woman. He was “praising” Canada as a place, where you can beat your wife with impunity. Reading from sheets of paper, he also counted all the benefits you would get here if you are a religious fanatic. It was a satirical performance, which still focused the attention on the flaws of Islam.
In the beginning the people didn’t pay much attention. Then two police women stopped by and a police van for transporting people under arrest parked in the side street.

There are a few typos in my hurried response. I would like to know theirs! Read from the bottom up. My initial email asked why anyone would want to buy halal Easter eggs and what they hope to achieve by certification.

Ministers’ cover-up over the abortion of unwanted girls: Officials refuse to release list of ethnic communities more likely to have sex-specific terminations
Once again, the ultimate leftist-feminist dilemma. Support all abortion for all women no matter why or when or where only to discover that the vast majority of them are used to murder embryonic girls. One thing is for sure. If I were part of the British public I would be furious that my government was hiding crucial information and pretending it was in my interest to do so.
Daily Mail:

Are abortions taking place in the UK based on the gender of the unborn child? The government wants to investigate further before saying for sure
Ministers have refused to release information about which immigrant communities appear more likely to abort unwanted girls.
Officials at the Department of Health have compiled a list of nationalities whose mothers tend to have far more boys than girls, a sign of illegal sex-specific terminations.
But they say that it would ‘not be in the public interest’ to publish the list.
Campaigners last night condemned ministers for being more concerned about stigmatising certain ethnic communities than challenging the practice by publishing the information.
Ranjit Bilkhu, an anti-gender abortion campaigner who grew up in a Sikh Punjabi community in Birmingham, said: ‘On International Women’s Day, of all days, we should be open about this issue. What we are talking about is violence against women and we should recognise it as such.
‘I think the Government is afraid to publish this because it might highlight particular communities that it doesn’t want to marginalise. I know it happens in my community.’
Western hypocrisy and double standards when dealing with hate speech

Malmö prosecutor: Attack on Jewish center no hate crime
06 March 2013
Authorities in the Swedish city of Malmö have dropped an investigation into the vandalism of a Jewish center, saying it was probably a “derailed prank” rather than a hate crime.
Unknown vandals threw rocks and a firecracker at the Jewish community building last September, breaking a window in the entrance door. No one was injured, but the incident raised concerns about an anti-Semitic motive in a city where some Jews say they have been harassed by Muslim immigrants.
Police said the perpetrators could not be identified, but Prosecutor Hans Harding on Wednesday said the investigation pointed to “a derailed prank by a group of friends seeking attention.”
Now, we go to Belgium:

Arne S., originally from Blankenberge, was sentenced on Wednesday, by the criminal court of Bruges, to four months in prison for having torn a copy of the Koran in front of a group of Muslims, in June 2012, in Ostende.

About 20 former BBC staff are barred even from revealing they signed a gagging deal (Alastair Grant)
THE BBC has used licence fee money to buy the silence of about 20 former staff who left after claiming to have been the victims of bullying or sexual harassment.
They have laid out their grievances in formal complaints to a BBC review set up in the wake of the Jimmy Savile scandal and overseen by Dinah Rose QC.
Former staff rounded on the BBC for its “hypocrisy” in gagging employees while promising to clean up the culture that enabled Savile to escape detection for his sexual crimes.
The 20 people forced to sign the gags, called compromise agreements, are barred even from revealing they have signed such a deal.
Diana West and Andrew Bostom on the NY Times hit piece on Lars Hedigaard

The New York Times weighs in today (like a ton of bricks) on the attempted assassination of Lars Hedegaard, editor of Dispatch International.
“Danish Critic of Islam Attacked, and Muslims Defend His Right to Speak” (with links from the NYT original)
By Andrew Higgins (photo above):
COPENHAGEN — When a would-be assassin disguised as a postman shot at — and just missed — the head of Lars Hedegaard, an anti-Islam polemicist and former newspaper editor, this month, a cloud of suspicion immediately fell on Denmark’s Muslim minority.
This isn’t a newspaper lede, it’s a framework of Leftist attitude through which the pre-enlightened Timesreader is to view the event.
As such, it’s worth a closer look. Note how the emotional seesaw touches down, first, at the head of Lars Hedegaard — “just missed” by a “would-be” (hapless) assassin– before lifting again as if burnt by the heat emanating from the “anti-Islam polemicist” (bad) and “former newspaper editor” (what good is he now?). It falls again through a troubling “cloud of suspicion” (cliche evokes *prejudice*) to land, thud, at “Denmark’s Muslim minority.”
Excerpt from Andrew Bostom:
Times Demonizes Hedegaard, Lionizes Danish Muslim Instigator of Murderous Cartoon Riots
February 28th, 2013 (6 hours ago) by Andrew Bostom |
Reporting “worthy” of this man, Walter Duranty
Andrew Higgins’ “inspirational” muse must be the ignoble New York Times reporter Walter Duranty, who deliberately concealed Stalin’s campaign of mass starvation and murder (or “dekulakization”) of 14.5 million in the Ukraine, from 1930-1937 (see Robert Conquest’s magisterial Harvest of Sorrow, pp. 299-307). This travesty was compounded when Duranty was awarded a 1932 Pulitzer prize for his despicably whitewashed, agitprop “reporting”.
Eight decades later, ostensibly reporting on the recent failed assassination attempt against Danish journalist and historian Lars Hedegaard for the New York Times (or more appositely, the New Duranty Times, since the “paper of record” has never denounced Duranty’s illegitimate receipt of the Pulitzer), Higgins demonizes Hedegaard as a purveyor of “ anti-Muslim bile and conspiracy-laden forecasts,” while lionizing Copenhagen’s Islamic Society, in particular, its current leader, Imran Shah.

Exposing the UN’s dirty little secrets

A gathering of the tortured in Geneva shames the UN Human Rights Council by giving victims not perpetrators a platform to tell their story
Geneva summit does the work the UN won’t do
The speakers were never meant to live and tell their stories. Their torturers expected them to either submit or die. But somehow these men and women managed to escape from their dungeons and concentration camps to gather at the seat of the United Nations Human Rights Council.
They came to bear witness to the crimes committed by some of the very members of this esteemed UN body. Naturally, at the Palace of the Nations, where over 80 international officials, including Foreign Secretary William Hague, will over the coming days address the Council, there will be no space for these brave freedom fighters.
This is why UN Watch, together with over 20 other NGOs, organized the Geneva Summit for Human Rights and Democracy last week. Now in its fifth year, the annual summit does the sort of work the UN shies away from. It gives the victims, not the perpetrators, of state terror a podium.
While the international dignitaries will speak under the auspices of Council Vice President Mauritania, the Geneva Summit participants heard from a former subject of the North African country—Abidine Merzough, a man born as a slave to slave parents.
As unfathomable as it may sound, some 20 percent of Mauritanians, about 600,000 people, are still slaves. Mauritania uses Sharia to justify a racist system where Arabs exploit the country’s black African population and which “runs counter to Islam’s humanist principles,” Merzough explained:
Khalid Mahmood: ‘Spy cameras should have stayed’
Typical. We enact measures that restrict our own freedoms and civil liberties for greater security due to a threat which is overwhelmingly from the Muslim community, and then we exempt the Muslims from having to endure those inconveniences. Just like airport security in Montreal where Muslims in burkas can sail through security which the rest of us have to endure annoyance and humiliation.

An MP has said more than 200 so-called “spy” cameras which were put up in largely Muslim areas of Birmingham should never have been removed.
Khalid Mahmood said the cameras, called Project Champion, would have been an “effective tool” in helping security services track terror suspects.
The cameras, which were removed in late-2010 after never being switched on, sparked protests from residents.
An independent report was highly critical of the scheme and the police.
Mr Mahmood’s comments came after three men from the city were convicted on Thursday of plotting a suicide bomb attack which they said would rival 9/11 or the 7 July bombings.
FOX accuses Al Jazeera of working with terrorist sleeper cells
H/T Magic Martin
From IB Times:
A Fox News contributor has accused Qatar-based news organization Al Jazeera of attempting to “infiltrate” the United States and collaborating with supposed Muslim sleeper cells.
On Wednesday, Fox News host Megyn Kelly made assertions that Al Jazeera, which recently purchased Al Gore’s Current TV, had a “real anti-American bias” and was planning to somehow “infiltrate” the United States. Fox contributor Lisa Daftari then chimed in, speculating that perhaps the network’s expansion of Al Jazeera America into Detroit was part of a plan to activate Muslim “sleeper cells.”
“The point is they want to differentiate themselves from their sister network, but at the same time, it’s the same thing,” Daftari stated, according to Think Progress. “They’re having the same type of coverage. They’re apparently expanding to eight cities, including Detroit, Michigan.”
