England: 2 men arrested for watching video of Koran burning

Posted on by

The world is becoming a sharia state much faster than expected. At least by me. I really think as many of us as humanly possible should get korans and burn them. There is only one way to preserve freedoms and that is use them. If we allow every thug to determine what our limits are, we will be slaves in no time at all.

Two Gateshead men arrested for watching 9/11 Koran burning video

20th September 2010

Civil Liberty correspondent

Warning from those practitioners of a peaceful religion Warning from those practitioners of a peaceful religion

In a disturbing development, Northumbria Police in Gateshead last week arrested two men after they watched and shared a video on Facebook of a man burning the Koran in the US during the recent 9/11 commemoration at Ground Zero in New York.

The men were drinking in the Bugle pub, Leam Lane, Gateshead, when they were arrested after watching and sharing the videos.

Around 30 people staged a protest outside Gateshead police station on Wednesday evening, the 15th of September, following the arrests.

The group stood outside the doors to the police station with an England flag for about three hours watched by a contingent of uniformed officers.The protesters had gathered at around 8pm after the two men were arrested earlier in the day on ‘suspicion of inciting racial hatred’.

The protest continued until around 11pm when the two arrested men were bailed pending further enquiries.

The guy who burned a Koran, a perfectly legal activity in the US is awaiting charges by a Muslim detective, while another fellow, Sami Samir Hassoun, was charged with planning to plant a bomb at Wrigley Field and planning to kill the mayor of Chicago.

Much more information about the Chicago man on Canada Free Press who predictably, was a “devout Muslim” and wanted to kill as many people as he could waging jihad in the streets of America

The article at Bloomberg refers to him as, “A Chicago man”

These two articles found over at Jihad Watch:

Thanks to Confused for pointing it out

UK police stop people from burning a page of Koran while American and UK flags burn all around

Posted on by

The police in England now seem to be enforcing sharia law, even though there is no act of legislation that makes burning a page of Koran illegal in any way. At the very very best, this is submission to violent foreign authority and a fifth column. At worst, Bat Ye’or is correct and this is more evidence of collusion to make Britain Islamic.

President Obama felt it was worth micromanaging the Mosque planned for near Ground Zero, but there is a deafening silence on replacing the church that was actually already there, and destroyed when the West tower came down.

A few links for Monday Sept 20 2010

I have been quite busy and still am, trying to improve the audio and editing the Ayaan Hirsi Ali speech from Denmark Sept. 18 2010 so I have not been able to post as many stories as I would have liked to, not to mention the number of stories that actually need the attention. Here is a set of links that has crossed my desk in the past few days. By the way, congratulations to the SD party in Sweden that met and exceeded their expectations with something like 20 new members of the Swedish Parliament and especially congratulations to Kent Eckeroth, someone who Vlad has been subtitling speeches for, and promoting for quite a while now. Sweden is lucky to have him.

Eeyore for Vlad

Here is an audio-only interview with a man who wrote a book explaining how Obama has flagrantly violated his constitutionally limited powers in a variety of ways. He does not advocate impeachment and is not an extremist in any way but does detail how Obama is limiting individual liberties in the US and transforming America as he promised he would, but in ways he simply is not allowed legally to do.

Halal to the Queen? Britain’s Stealth Halal-ization

Andrew G. Bostom
Creeping Sharia has already extended to the dietary practices of British dhimmis, who are involuntarily consuming meats ritually slaughtered and prayed over in good Islamic practice.

Although this Daily Mail investigation of the stealth Islamization of the British meat industry is largely fixated on the “animal cruelty” aspect of the story, the findings provide another disturbing example of Britain’s steady Islamization, as evidenced by its “stealth halal-ization”:
….[S]chools, hospitals, pubs and famous sporting venues such as Ascot and Twickenham are controversially serving up meat slaughtered in accordance with strict Islamic law to unwitting members of the public. All the beef, chicken and lamb sold to fans at Wembley has secretly been prepared in accordance with sharia law, while Cheltenham College, which boasts of its ‘strong Christian ethos’, is one of several top public schools which also serves halal chicken to pupils without informing them. Even Britain’s biggest hotel and restaurant group Whitbread, which owns the Beefeater and Brewers Fayre chains, among many others, has admitted that more than three-quarters of its poultry is halal.

Here is one of my favourite examples of selective tiflosis. Israelis are frequently called racist for not allowing themselves to be subjected to sharia law and destroying themselves as a state, while the PA affirms the death penalty for selling land to Jews. To be clear, if a Muslim Arab sells property to a Jewish person or an Israeli in the west bank, he will be killed for this crime. PA has affirmed it. Yet oddly, this is not racist and does not seem to catch the attention of the west’s secular left. As Mr. Spock was wont to say, ‘facinating’.

PA affirms death penalty for land sales to Israelis

The PA says the land law is necessary to prevent the expansion of Jewish settlements in the West Bank and east Jerusalem.

The Palestinian Authority on Sunday reaffirmed the death penalty for any Palestinian found guilty of selling land to Israelis.

The decision came in response to a ruling by a Palestinian court according to which such acts were only a “minor offense.”

PA to ban work in settlements

PA Prosecutor-General Ahmed al-Mughni appealed against the ruling to a higher court, arguing that the sale of land to Israelis was a “major offense” punishable by death.

The appeal was accepted.

Rauf’s Group Claims Credit for ‘Training’ NY Times Reporter

IPT News

September 20, 2010

http://www.investigativeproject.org/2189/raufs-group-claims-credit-for-training-ny-times

A reporter who helped write the first and positive New York Times story on the Ground Zero Mosque was trained by the group run by mosque leader Feisal Abdul Rauf, according to that group’s website.

Rauf’s organization, the American Society for Muslim Advancement (ASMA), touted the journalist’s participation in a training program by ASMA’s “Muslim Leaders of Tomorrow” (MLT).

“Media trainings showed immediate results,” ASMA’s 2009 year-end report said.

Rauf’s group then cited Sharaf Mowjood, “a journalism student at Columbia University and trained at the MLT [Muslim Leaders of Tomorrow] conference, wrote a compelling story about the Muslim community’s plan to establish a center near Ground Zero. The story was published on the front page of the New York Times with Sharaf as co-author.” The article appeared in the Dec. 9, 2009, edition of the New York Times.

Mowjood could not be reached for comment. In an email, Times Metro Editor Joe Sexton, disputed ASMA’s representation about the program Mowjood attended.

“He participated in no training sessions sponsored by ASMA or the Cordoba Initiative,” Sexton wrote. He attended a lecture sponsored by ASMA in 2008. He was not a presenter or participant. He signed the sign-in sheet.” Continue Reading →

Sharia or, well, you know, ‘law’?

The US seems to be slipping into using the machinery of state to enforce the sharia more and more these days.

This is one trial I would like to watch. Try and wrap your heads around the wording of the charge as they list it. Last time I looked, “desecration of a Koran” is not a crime in the U.S of A.

H/T to Vlad reader DP11 and to Jihad Watch for this story:

$10,000 Reward In Koran Burning Case

The East Lansing Police Department is seeking the publics help to find who is responsible for burning and desecrating a Koran. The incident happened on September 11. It was found at the front door of the Islamic Center of East Lansing.

The department is offering $10,000 for any information that would lead to the identification and prosecution of those responsible for this act.

Those with information are asked to call Det. Sherief Fadly at 517-319-6814.

American School Kids tricked into Islamic prayer.

The amount of deception practised by this mosque and organization defies belief. How they can in one minute talk about how Women are more free under Mohamed than they were under Washington, then immediately tell the women and girls to leave and trick the parents into allowing their sons to do the Islamic prostration nonsense is truly stunning. Please watch this whole clip as it also alludes to emetic ACLU hypocrisy, and so spread it as far and wide as you can.

Thank you

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)

While the west debates burning Korans, the Islamic world continues its genocide

A few days ago, Vlad published a movie of Christians being burned alive and beaten for being not Muslim. This got exactly no MSM attention of course. Neither does this:

I wonder if Petraeus and NATO, Obama, the mayor of NYC or any world leaders will bother to say anything about any of this.

It seems the US military is of two minds when it comes to burning holy books.

It is very hard to not write something really trite here at Petreus. I mean he felt it was necessary to speak out when one Christian Pastor wanted to have a Koran burning on 911 to make a point but the military itself here is burning bibles to appease Muslims in Afghanistan? Something really really stinks here. When do we get to fight back?

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

Posted on by

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.

muslim brotherhood

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.

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.

Melanie Phillips on the persecution of Lars Hedigaard in Denmark

Posted on by

Its good to see people like Ms. Phillips noticing and publicizing this disgraceful action by Denmark which up to now, has been a beacon of light for freedoms in the gathering darkness of Scandinavian dhimmitude. (The next story there is rather revealing as well)

From the Spectator:


A chilling development in Denmark illustrates just how ‘hate speech’ laws, which were introduced by deluded western liberals, are being used to stifle and criminalise the expression of legitimate opinion and essential debate — the prerequisite of a liberal society. Lars Hedegaard is president of Denmark’s International Free Press Society, which is devoted to fighting to preserve freedom of expression — particularly against the threat from radical Islam to shut it down on the spurious grounds of ‘Islamophobia’. The inevitable has now happened: as Nathaniel Sugarman writes at The Legal Project, Hedegaard finds himself facing prosecution for ‘racism’ over remarks he has made about Islam.

The basis for Hedegaard’s prosecution was an interview from December 2009 in which he made controversial statements about Islam. These assertions included critiques of what Hedegaard saw as Islam’s permissiveness regarding child abuse and bearing false witness, as well as Islam’s general intolerance concerning apostacism and critical speech. Snaphanen, a Danish blog, published the original interview, and Hedegaard has since clarified some of his remarks.
