Rather candid and refreshing view from a media sector more comfortable with ‘peace at any cost’

Assuming The Best About Muslims

By PAUL SPERRY

Newsweek’s latest cover story, titled “Muslim Rage,” is meant to shock the average American — as if Muslim fury is a new phenomenon. “Muslim rage” is in fact a tedious redundancy. When are the followers of Islam not enraged?

Still, the politically correct media elite appear at long last to be suffering tolerance fatigue. They’ve finally grown weary of pretending Muslims aren’t what they do.

Some are even expressing disgust with the perpetually offended and violent Muslim community. If the gang rape of a “60 Minutes” correspondent in Tahrir Square wasn’t enough to turn their stomachs, the parading of an allegedly gay American ambassador’s naked corpse through the streets of Benghazi is.

CNN host Wolf Blitzer, in a spasm of honest frustration, blurted out:

“Why do these people hate America after all that the U.S. has done to liberate” them?

Answer: religion. Not, as the New York Times whines, because of B-movies. Or drone strikes. Or waterboarding. Or Gitmo. Or Iraq. Or Afghanistan. Or Hiroshima. Or the countless other excuses offered.

IKEA hypocrisy

I wasn’t going to post this story cause in a way, I don’t care. But it is highly annoying that IKEA plays the sanctimony card in Canada rubbing our noses in tolerance and diversity and then they collapse like one of their own desks whenever a totalitarian misogynistic racist bastard like the KSA ask for changes in their logo and catalogue.

But on the other hand, I take great pleasure in imagining those desert barbarians in the KSA trying to put together one of those IKEA chests of drawers or an office chair. Maybe we should try and force them to buy all their furniture there.

Geller Agonistes—Truth in Advertising About the Jihad Against Israel

Andrew Bostom:

Even the NY Times [2] seemed revolted by the glorification of the August 9, 2001 Jerusalem Sbarro Restaurant homicide bombing carnage—an act of jihad terrorism committed by Hamas—“re-created” the next month with ghoulish joy, in a Palestinian Muslim exhibit whose entrance (complete with replicated Sbarro sign) is depicted in the photo above.

The September 26, 2001 Times report [2] included these grisly details:

Created by a student faction of Hamas…The most contentious section is a mock-up of the Sbarro restaurant in Jerusalem where 15 people were killed in a suicide attack in August including not only gnawed pizza crusts but bloody plastic body parts suspended from the ceiling as if they were blasting through the air

Observer abused by demonstration leader in Malmö’

According to avpixlat , the Swede was taken into custody for ‘disturbing the public order’. At the end of the video, the perp can be seen holding a speech, unmolested by police.

A man screamed and hissed at Muslims and at least one Muslim tried to kick / beat him. But instead of charging the Muslim with attempted assault, police stopped the hissing man and took charge of him for disturbing the public order.

During the police questioning Muslims were screaming in the background. At the end of the video the microphone is handed to a new speaker on Möllevångstorget [square]. It turns out that this is the same Muslim who earlier tried to kick / beat the hissing man.

The Guardian. Another reason for Pat Condell’s criticism

Check this absurd article in today’s Guardian, a near complete synthesis and I can tell you this for a fact, the EDL despises Breivik more than most and his actions have in fact set groups like the EDL back a long way. In any case, this video by Mr, Condell now makes sense for another reason. The Guardian’s propensity to manufacture facts and create false impressions as opposed to reporting the news.

Honest Reporting is interviewed by Michael Coren

These guys are great. I do highly object to the whole concept of ‘balance’ though. Either a thing is true and represents the facts on the ground or it does not. There is simply no such thing as balance. To make a ‘balanced’ report would in most cases mean representing the fiction of those who would commit atrocities as a legitimate view worthy of equal time.

Mike Fegelman, Executive Director of Honest Reporting Canada, joins Michael Coren to discuss the coverage of Israel by Canadian media.

Michael Coren expresses concern about police today in the Western world.

I find this to be a rather bad omen. When classical conservatives such as Mr. Coren or Lowell Green (more on that later) who have always been champions of the police and staunch supporters of them start to publicly question their motives and strategy or even entertain the notion that the strategy of police is other than as defenders of our rights and the law I would call that a very bad sign for Western secular liberal democracy.

“Obama deeply concerned” about what it calls a “politically-motivated prosecution,” (re Pussy Riot)

I wonder if a punk band broke into a mosque uninvited and started singing punk songs about how awful Islam is, even if they told the absolute verbatim truth about Mohamed and so on, and also included how pissed off they where at the Obama administration for its complicity in being the single biggest force for the reduction of freedom and safety for all non-Muslim groups in the world, again, arguably very true, and had many of their supporters also enter the mosque and trash the place up during the performance, would Obama make sure that no prosecution took place?

Or would he label it terrorism and go public with how horrible these peoples actions where and apologize to Muslims till the crease in his pants faded a tiny bit around the knee.

I think we all know the answer. And frankly, I gotta go with Putin on this one.

Check this account of the actions of these women. Video of the attack, (and attack it was as one cannot call it a performance when it was not asked for, and specifically not wanted) below.
