Massive country wide demonstrations in Pakistan to preserve death penalty for blasphemy against Islam

And below, a BBC report also failing to grasp or convey the monstrosity of this and its monstrous implications for Islam around the world.

Barack Obama adviser says Sharia Law is misunderstood

The Telegraph:

President Barack Obama’s adviser on Muslim affairs, Dalia Mogahed, has provoked controversy by appearing on a British television show hosted by a member of an extremist group to talk about Sharia Law.

By Andrew Gilligan and Alex Spillius in Washington 8:00PM BST 08 Oct 2009

Miss Mogahed, appointed to the President’s Council on Faith-Based and Neighbourhood Partnerships, said the Western view of Sharia was “oversimplified” and the majority of women around the world associate it with “gender justice”.

The White House adviser made the remarks on a London-based TV discussion programme hosted by Ibtihal Bsis, a member of the extremist Hizb ut Tahrir party.

The group believes in the non-violent destruction of Western democracy and the creation of an Islamic state under Sharia Law across the world.

Miss Mogahed appeared alongside Hizb ut Tahrir’s national women’s officer, Nazreen Nawaz.

During the 45-minute discussion, on the Islam Channel programme Muslimah Dilemma earlier this week, the two members of the group made repeated attacks on secular “man-made law” and the West’s “lethal cocktail of liberty and capitalism”.

They called for Sharia Law to be “the source of legislation” and said that women should not be “permitted to hold a position of leadership in government”.

Miss Mogahed made no challenge to these demands and said that “promiscuity” and the “breakdown of traditional values” were what Muslims admired least about the West.

She said: “I think the reason so many women support Sharia is because they have a very different understanding of sharia than the common perception in Western media. Continue Reading →

The spread of Muslim tactics and establishing primacy

We know that in France in over 40 cities, Muslims take over whole streets and sometimes multiple streets for ‘prayer’ and usually for several hours, reportedly not allowing people access to their own homes and businesses. In the comments to the videos I have posted at youtube on this, I frequently get a lot of people, rightfully outraged, but also puffing their chests and insisting this could never happen in their home country/city. Here is a few clips from Moscow and Washington DC. But this takes place wherever Muslims wish to establish their primacy in a location. They of course have a language they use for the press using the typical set of logical fallacies which I attempt to address in this short video, but the real reason is military.

Dec 10 2010 More Muslims take over more Paris streets.

The Tundra Tabloids updates this post by Vlad:

UPDATE: Here is the map where the Muslims are praying in the street along the length of the Poissonnier.

Rue Polonceau with the mosque on the right side

Looking up the Poissonnier with the mosque on the right

Looking down the Poissonnier in the opposite direction

NOTE: This latter part of the street where they were (and are still) praying faces closer to Mecca than the rest, with the middle to latter end completely off. This is all in the same vicinity of the Myrha street praying. The TT didn’t really understand the magnitude of the area being taken over by these Muslims, it extends a major portion of the latter end of the poissonier street. It’s no wonder why they’re now incorporating the use of loud speakers, the size of the take over has increased.

A contrast on 2 book burnings.

The important French web site, Bivouac, made an important observation. One Florida pastor, a certain Pastor Terry Jones, received massive MSM condemnation from media in the USA and abroad, most notably in the UK, for planning to burn copies of the Koran which were his personal property. He wished to do this as a statement about how Muslims treat Christians and other non Muslims around the world, and demand to build Mosques in the US right where thousands of unsuspecting American civilians were slaughtered at work by Muslims in the name of Islam. Agree with him or not, the media attention he received was not flattering and was copious.

Contrast that with this story:

Islamic Militants Destroy Underground Christian Library in Somalia

In the above story, the Christian books were not the property of Al Shabaab. They were forcibly taken (Stolen is not a strong enough term) and burned en masse in the city centre to make a very strong statement about how any religion other than Islam will not be tolerated. Yet the mainstream media is deadly silent. One has to get this from essentially underground Christian press, which seems to be the last bastion of freedom of speech and accurate reporting left on Earth.

Spain: Muslims sue teacher for speaking about ham in class

The story below is surreal. A few short years ago, there is no way any of us would believe seriously that this could have happened. Now, a teacher in Spain is actually in real trouble, whether it is criminal, fear for his future or job, or a civil suit for just mentioning ham. We are indeed in a state of dhimmitude.

From Tea And Politics:

Spanish ham (absolutely offensive to “Ham-o-phobic” Muslims…)

According to the account of the facts, the teacher was explaining the different climates in a geography class and cited the village of Trevelez due to its cold and dry climate. According to the newspaper account, ”as a story, the teacher told his students that such a climate was conducive to making hams (this refers to the procedure that it’s necessary between the pig is killed and the ham is actually ready to be eaten). Then the student asked the teacher not to speak of hams since it offended him, because he was a Muslim. “

The teacher told the students that in his classes, he did not consider the religion of their students, but apparently the family did not stay at home when they learned the facts, to the extent that they went to the National Police to file a complaint without speaking in advance with the teacher.

According to ”El Diario de Cádiz“, the teacher “is accused of being the author of an alleged crime of abuse of workers, also alleging racist and xenophobic motives. “ His school colleagues can’t believe what has happened and speak about the impeccable record of teaching reported.

Police laugh while whipping Sudanese woman

WARNING:

This is footage of a woman being whipped in a public square.

Sudan investigates case of woman seen being flogged on YouTube clip

Footage sparks international condemnation as police laugh and joke as they administer whipping to screaming woman

  • Screengrab from a YouTube clip of a woman being lashed in a carpark by police in Sudan. Screengrab from a YouTube clip of a woman being lashed in a carpark by police in Sudan.Sudan‘s judiciary has launched an investigation into the public flogging of a woman after footage of her being whipped by laughing policemen was posted to the internet.

    The YouTube video shows an unidentified woman in a long black dress and a headscarf being ordered to sit down in a parking lot (Warning: Video contains graphic images of violence some may find disturbing).

    A uniformed policeman proceeds to whip her all over her body as she screams in pain. A second officer laughs when he realises he is being filmed, before joining in the punishment, which lasts a minute and a half.

    Flogging is relatively common is northern Sudan, where sharia law is often enforced arbitrarily. But the cruel, nonchalant behaviour of the security forces amid the distress of the victim in this case caused a stir in the country and the diaspora, and even attracted condemnation in some pro-government newspapers.

    Initially Sudan’s deputy police chief, Adel Al-Agib, tried to downplay the incident, saying that the footage was circulated in order to damage the image of the country, according to the Sudan Tribune newspaper.

    But the judicial authority, which oversees the legal system, released a statement yesterday saying it had launched an official inquiry to see if the punishment had been administered improperly.

    “The investigation was started immediately after the images of the young woman, being punished under Articles 154 and 155 of the 1991 Sudanese penal code, appeared on the internet,” the judiciary said in a statement, according to state media.

    These articles allow up to 100 lashes for adultery and running a brothel, in addition to a jail sentence. In this case the woman’s alleged crime is not known, although comments on social media sites suggest it could have been the wearing of trousers, which has in the past been judged to violate a law governing “indecent or immoral dress”.

Remember the video on Muslims taking over a Paris street?

For those who thought it was a small thing, just an overflow from a local mosque look again. Now they have added loudspeaker equipment and are carpeting pretty much the whole street and not just individual mats on the sidewalk.

If this is not a show of Islamic primacy than what would be exactly?

The capture of Tower Hamlets


People like myself who have warned for some years now about the steady Islamisation of Britain receive a torrent of scorn and abuse from the so-called custodians of our culture. Terms such as ‘scare-mongering’, exaggeration’ or ‘alarmism’ tumble out alongside the inevitable ‘Islamophobia’.

Now we can see what these cultural kamikazes are helping bring about. In the east London borough of Tower Hamlets, a man with reported links to radical Islamism, Lutfur Rahman, has been elected Mayor of the borough, giving him control of a billion-pound budget and thus the apparent installation of a platform for the progressive intimidation and silencing of British Muslims who do not want to live under sharia law, let alone the non-Muslim majority in the area.

In order to know anything about this crucial development, you have to read the Telegraph’s Andrew Gilligan who has been closely following what’s been going on in Tower Hamlets during the past year. He writes on his blog:

For the last eight months – without complaint or challenge from Mr Rahman – this blog and newspaper have laid out his close links with a group of powerful local businessmen and with a Muslim supremacist body, the Islamic Forum of Europe (IFE) – which believes, in its own words, in transforming the “very infrastructure of society, its institutions, its culture, its political order and its creed… from ignorance to Islam.” Mr Rahman has refused to deny these claims.

Pakistani imam offers reward for murder of Christian woman

Accused of blasphemy, but actually acquitted by a Pak court as I understand the story. Frankly, blasphemy isn’t a real charge so I don’t really care if she is innocent or guilty as its a non crime anyway and even if it was, random people offering a reward for her murder, well that doesn’t even happen to people like Clifford Olden or Charles Manson in real nations. Also, I have a pretty good idea what would happen to me if I offered for example, $50.00 to anyone who kills this imam who put the bounty on this woman. And frankly, rightfully so. Interpol would be after me. So why do these guys get away with it every single time?

Thanks again FOOMF for this great find. I owe ya man.

Some depressing links about the state of the UK.

As I said in a post from earlier this evening, it is becoming more and more clear to me why A Clockwork Orange and Orwell’s books are all about England. A. M. was kind enough to compile this list of depressing links about the England today. Fair warning, I have a suspicion that news may break tomorrow, even more depressing than any of this in some ways.

Story #1. Anjem Choudery to get his own episode on a major UK TV show:

Anjem Choudary, who was also involved with the banned group Islam4UK which planned a protest march through Wootton Bassett, will have free reign to give his views during an edition of the channel’s daily opinion slot, known as 4thought.tv.

The counter-terrorism think-tank Quilliam has written to David Abraham, the Channel 4 chief executive, to complain about airtime already given to radical Muslims during the series.

Story #2. Taliban spiritual cleric to speak in House of Lords:

A senior Muslim cleric who is known as the “Taliban’s ideological mentor” has been allowed to enter the UK and address the House of Lords. More here as well:

Fazlur Rehman, the head of Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam party, came to the UK on Wednesday, at the invitation of the High Commission of Pakistan, and was due to address the House of Lords on Thursday.

Story #3. Islamists to advise all Party Parliamentary group on preventing Islamophobia:

After a series of reverses in the political arena, Islamist sympathisers yesterday established a key bridgehead in Parliament.

A body called iEngage (also known as Engage) states in a press release that it will be acting as the secretariat to a new All-Party Parliamentary Group on Islamophobia, whose inaugural meeting was held yesterday in the Commons. The group is chaired by a Tory MP, Kris Hopkins. The Lib Dem deputy leader Simon Hughes and the Labour peer Lord Janner are vice-chairs. Sources say that the inaugural meeting was attended by the Tory MPs Angie Bray and Eric Ollerenshaw, among others. (A spokesman for the Labour MP Lisa Nandy, who was listed as attending, has contacted me to say that she did not.)

Story #4. London borough of Tower Hamlets becomes “Islamic republic”:

Outside the Wellington Way polling station in Tower Hamlets yesterday, as at many other polling stations in the borough, people had to run a gauntlet of Lutfur Rahman supporters to reach the ballot box. As one Bengali woman voter went past them, we heard one of the Rahman army scolding her for her “immodest dress.”

That incident is perhaps a tiny taste of the future for Britain’s poorest borough now it has elected Mr Rahman as its first executive mayor, with almost total power over its £1 billion budget. At the count last night, one very senior figure in the Tower Hamlets Labour Party said: “It really is Britain’s Islamic republic now.”

For the last eight months – without complaint or challenge from Mr Rahman – this blog and newspaper have laid out his close links with a group of powerful local businessmen and with a Muslim supremacist body, the Islamic Forum of Europe (IFE) – which believes, in its own words, in transforming the “very infrastructure of society, its institutions, its culture, its political order and its creed… from ignorance to Islam.” Mr Rahman has refused to deny these claims.

March in England Dec 15th against legal double standards.

I am so glad, the EDL is doing this. It is an abomination and an outrage that two standards and legal systems apply to the people of England and the fact is, when you add those systems together, you get Sharia for all.

This march, perhaps of all the marches the EDL have organized, is at least in my opinion the most important and moral one. In any given jurisdiction, there only ever can be one standard and set of laws. Anything else is slavery. If you can at all make it to join this march on Dec. 15th please do so. This is a crucial issue.
