The Grand Lie and West Point
Political Islam:
Recently the West Point Military Academy denied retired LTG Jerry Boykin, a candid speaker about Islam, a chance to be at a prayer breakfast at West Point. The usual suspects not only didn’t want any discussion that might involve Islam, they didn’t even want someone who had spoken about it in the past.
U.S. Army doctrine “instructs Army leaders to respect [emphasis added] the Muslim culture as a part of counterinsurgency operations,” VoteVets said in a letter to West Point Superintendent Lieutenant General David Huntoon. Boykin’s past remarks “threaten our relationship with Muslims around the world, and thereby, our troops serving in harm’s way,” said VoteVets, which represents veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
This is not the first time that our military has rejected someone who knows about the doctrine and history of Islam from speaking. The first causality was Steve Coughlin in 2008 under George Bush. Steve is an expert on Sharia and Islamic war doctrine who worked at the Pentagon. He was terminated after a complaint by a Muslim.
For an illustration of the “know nothing about Islam” doctrine see General Stanley McChrystal’s Afghanistan war strategy that made no mention of Islamic war doctrine.
DOUGLAS MURRAY: ISRAEL AND NUCLEAR IRAN
Probably Douglas Murray’s finest speech delineating the inane moral fetor emanating from Western academicians on the Iranian nuclear crisis (and the hapless Jewish state Europe hates).

The recent convictions in the Stephen Lawrence trial have caused some controversy. It seems no effort will be spared to bring the killers to justice. However, some serious questions need to be asked of media coverage of the case. Was a fair trial even possible, given the level of frenzied media reporting?
Newspapers have jeopardised the outcome of trial proceedings before. And it is becoming increasingly obvious that editors shrink from covering violent crimes by ethnics because of fears of accusations of racism.
The suggestion is the huge media attention was accorded the case simply because Gary Dobson and David Norris are white.

Rules for journalists by the National Union of Journalists
This explains a great deal actually, about why the news doesn’t seem to be much in touch with actual reality on the ground. What a tragic shame. I might add, it would be an interesting contest to see who can find the most contradictions in this clearly socialist agenda driven yet, I am reliably informed, very influential organization.

NUJ guidelines on race reporting.
Guidelines ratified by the National Union of Journalists (UK and Ireland) for all its members to follow when dealing with race relations subjects.
Statement on race reporting
1. The NUJ believes that the development of racist attitudes and the growth of fascist parties pose a threat to democracy, the rights of trade union organisations, a free press and the development of social harmony and well-being.
2. The NUJ believes that its members cannot avoid a measure of responsibility in fighting the evil of racism as expressed through the mass media.
3. The NUJ reaffirms its total opposition to censorship but equally reaffirms its belief that press freedom must be conditioned by responsibility and an acknowledgement by all media workers of the need not to allow press freedom to be abused to slander a section of the community or to promote the evil of racism.

‘Disgusting sentence sends wrong message about street violence,’ says devastated victim of race hate gang assault by Muslims freed because ‘they weren’t used to alcohol

Victim: Rhea Page, 22, feels she has become a victim again after her attackers faced court -this time of soft justice
When Rhea Page watched CCTV in court of herself being beaten unconscious by a Muslim girl gang and saw one of her attackers laughing she felt disgusted.
The 22-year-old was determined to face her attackers and see justice done after she was viciously assaulted while waiting for a taxi with her boyfriend in Leicester city centre.
But the healthcare worker was bitterly disappointed as all four girls walked free from court for the random attack, which left Rhea with a bald patch where her hair was ripped out, because they were Somalian Muslims and not used to drinking alcohol.
Far from feeling a sense of relief after her attackers’ sentencing Rhea feels like she has become a victim all over again, this time of a soft justice system which let her attackers walk free. Continue Reading →
The articulators of knowledge in the West have completely undermined reality
Raymond Ibrahim’s testimony to the US House of Representatives Human Rights Committee; on Shariah, Dhimmitude & the Copts; is a moving and eloquent absolute must watch.
In fifteen short minutes Mr Ibrahim amply demonstrates how the contemporary persecution of Coptic Christians in Egypt is a direct mirror of identical suffering meted out to his people for the fourteen previous centuries, using historical sources to back up his case.
This is no “accidental aberration” he conclusively proves, by pointing to the Quranic injunctions – the literal commands of god – that instruct Muslims to behave in the ways that lead to the inevitable suffering of any non-Muslim who falls under the reach of Islam’s power.
He also delves persuasively and depressingly into the historical events, and current dangerously misguided modes of thought (from history classes to the media), which have conspired to erect the “intellectual hurdles” that make unintelligible to a contemporary audience…
“…something that is fourteen hundred years old and is so obvious to anyone who has studied it or looked at it.
President Obama, please, “Stop Supporting the Muslim Brotherhood…”
“…the founders of Hamas and al-Qaeda are not moderate.”
As a Coptic Christian Egyptian female I can’t even begin to imagine the life that the political activist Cynthia Farahat has led, let alone the deep terror which must be filling her heart at the prospect of the future awaiting her and her people.
There will be the childhood and young life marred and marked by oppression, fear and persecution; the religious, academic and political exclusion; and the constant threat of violence, abduction, robbery and rape. With the months and years ahead promising nothing more than worse, much worse, to come.
Here is a short excerpt of her testimony to the Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission in the US House of Representatives.
Announcing: JIHAD AWARENESS MONTH
The latest video from the Christian apologetics ninjas over at AnsweringMuslims.com is a joy to behold. It contains the usual combination of precise and irrefutable scholarship with their unique sense of humour, but this time it’s also a little different.
There’s a really pro-active tone of positivity and empowerment here: watch right to the end to pick up some really useful tips on how you can take positive steps this month (symbolic in its Judeo-Christian festivities of all that is best about Western Civilization) to combat ignorance of Islam.
This guidance follows a characteristically brilliant deconstruction of the utterly mad rhetoric on Islam now coming out of the Obama administration, which just today classified the Fort Hood massacre as “workplace violence”!
To quote from Dr David Wood in the video:
The Anti-American dreamteam then [i.e extremists and the liberal establishment] consists almost entirely of cowards and morons: the ONLY way we could ever be defeated by a force like that, is if we do absolutely nothing.
REDUX: The video of the attack on the British girl by the Somalis with comentary
There is so much wrong here one can’t put it all in a video. But we can start with imagining what a society would be like where a large fraction of the population lost all faith in its judiciary to dispense rational justice, and if not rational justice, then at least irrational justice evenly meted out.
I would hope the crown prosecutor will appeal this case. The consequences to the established norms, the faith that the British have in their own bureaucrats, judiciary, authority overall will be shattered, if it is not already, as these kinds of cases of selective enforcement pile up.
We all know that had white people done this to black people or Muslims, it would be a hate crime. There would be no release from jail while awaiting trial as we saw from a young mother who merely expressed her opinion (as unfashionable as it may have been) on a subway car and there would not only be time spent in jail but added time because it was a hate crime.
This is a very, very bad thing.
Ezra Levant busts the corruption in the Aboriginal leadership that is so very long overdue.
No one has had the guts to raise this very important issue till now. Ezra is the first person to do it on this and many other subjects in Canada that desperately need to be discussed in the open.
Radio program where Muslims blame white British girls for their own rapes because they dress like British girls.
Funny, I don’t see any “slut-walks” planned to demonstrate against this. One police chief in Toronto makes a remark about provocative clothes and behavior and women across the Western world plan slut walks demanding and taking their right to look how they want. And rightfully so. Yet oddly there is dizzying silence when tens of thousands of women are serially raped and turned into drug addicts and prostitutes by Muslim men and the rational is…
Jihadwatch Comes To Town.
PJG has written a guest post over at JihadWatch about Robert Spencer’s vist to Melbournistan.
I’ve known PJG for quite some time now, and we’ve attended the occasional demo together, so I’m happy to agree with what s/he has to say. Rather than rehash that, I’ll add my observations of the evening. (This is your opportunity to rush over to JW and read the report!)
