Turkey, Germany, totalitarian kindred. Links 1 on April 24 – 2016

1. Leader of Pirate Party arrested in GERMANY for discussing publicly on how common-folk criticize the powerful as applied to Erdogan.

Please click over to The Rebel for a more comprehensive article on this event.

2. The claim is made that Turkey is the best example to the world on how to deal with refugees

I can see how some groups might agree with this. For the majority of us however, not so much.

3. Obama says that Merkel is on the right side of history

4. Surprisingly, the Dutch Prime Minister is appearing as if he opposes Erdogan’s insult-hot-line

Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte said April 22 he will ask Ankara to clarify a call to Turks in the Netherlands to report individuals who insult the Turkey or its president.

Rutte said he was surprised by the apparent plea to Turks living in the country to report insulting or negative comments about President Recep Tayyip Erdo?an or Turkey to the country’s consulate in Rotterdam.

A political storm erupted on April 21 after several Dutch newspapers reported an email apparently sent by the consulate to Turkish organisations in the Netherlands, which asked people to forward disparaging emails and posts on social media such as Facebook and Twitter.

“I am surprised. It’s not clear what the Turkish government aims to achieve with this action,” Rutte told journalists during a joint press conference with visiting German Chancellor Angela Merkel in the southern city of Eindhoven.

“Our ambassador in Ankara will ask for an explanation,” he said.

The Turkish consulate for its part said the note was sent by a consular official who used an “unfortunate choice of words” that was misinterpreted.

5. Brown University Students Flip Out After White Person Sings Hindu Chants

(Cultural appropriation is the ultimate in thought crimes which can be selectively enforced. It is sharia law for communists)

A simple musical performance at Brown University became a source of tremendous controversy Thursday night after student protesters denounced it for having Hindu chants sung by a white woman.

Carrie Grossman, a 2000 Brown graduate, performed in “An Evening of Devotional Music,” which organizers touted as an “intimate evening of inquiry, music and meditation.” Grossman’s performance was a kirtan, a form of traditional chanting that originates in the Indian subcontinent.

But to some students, it was actually an intimate evening of gruesome cultural appropriation, because Grossman had the temerity to sing chants from India despite being white.

 

Swiss federal authorities said they have drawn up three separate scenarios ranging from 10,000 arrivals inside a month to a worst case of 30,000 inside a few days.

The latter “would necessitate army intervention,” the government said.

In a statement on Wednesday the government said it had tasked the defence ministry with putting 2,000 troops on standby for such an eventuality.

The plans, agreed last Thursday, aim to coordinate state, cantonal and communal response in the event of a large influx of people.

 

 

Thank you Buck, M., Wrath of Khan, Xanthippa, Gates of Vienna, Tundra Tabloids, The Rebel, 

There is already a lot more to post. I mean a great deal, not hte least of which are some interesting skirmishes between pro-border Italians with Austrian forces. Not sure which side they are on exactly yet. Will post videos and information once its better understood. The materials should all be in the Daily Links post for today however.

Watching this video reminded me of one episode of House MD. where a black man was upset because he had been given a new medication that was specific for black people. A sharper medical instrument that had been designed to treat the variant of the disease more specific to black people and therefore more effective. The patient resisted and demanded the standard original variant which was not as targeted. It was a cautious way of approaching this issue.

Robert Spencer video series: Basics of Islam. Video 1. “Islamophobia”

This video has been posted at this site before of course but a bunch of us volunteers have decided to pitch in and do a minor rosetta project on it as we feel, along with Robert Spencer, that not just English people need to be able to see this information.

I will post the links to the languages we have as they get done here with the request that readers of this site that know people who speak only these languages, could please send them the links. Especially if you know people who run Islam-critical sites in these languages.

We still need French for this video by the way.

Here are the links we have done so far:

German

Polish

Danish

Turkish

Portuguese

Please feel free to copy these links and send them to whomever you feel needs to see them in those languages. I will post new ones as they appear here. Perhaps also we can summon the energy to also do the second video in the series, already published in English.

Here is the original in English.

Anyone interested in doing a translation for titles please leave a comment under this post and I will arrange to get you a timed transcription in English.

2. Federal Court: Schools May Not Provide Separate Bathrooms Based on Biology

(If ever proof was needed that the Frankfurt school extreme-left wing was waging a battering ram war on classical civilization’s foundation, on reason itself, this is it)

On Tuesday, the Fourth Circuit Court ruled against a Virginia school district that sought to accommodate a transgender student while also protecting the privacy rights of other students.

The court concluded that Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972—which prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex—should be interpreted as prohibiting discrimination on the basis of gender identity, as a Department of Education letter suggested in 2015. The ruling allows a lawsuit brought by a transgender student to proceed.

The case involves a biological girl who identifies as a boy. The court’s majority explains it this way: “G.G.’s birth-assigned sex, or so-called ‘biological sex,’” is female, but G.G.’s gender identity is male.” Note the scare quotes around what the court calls “so-called ‘biological sex.” Biological sex, in fact, is precisely what Congress protected in 1972.

There seems to be one eye opening of the sleeping giant that is Europe: Links 3 on April 19 – 2016

1. The history behind the Islamic State Flag

2. Belgian PRIME MINISTER backs statement of minister on celebrating Muslims after Brussels attacks

BRUSSELS, April 18 (Reuters) – Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel backed his outspoken interior minister over comments that a significant number of Muslims had cheered the Brussels bombings, and said supporters of terrorism were a cancer that needed removing.

Jan Jambon told Belgian daily De Standaard in a Saturday interview that a significant part of the Muslim community had danced with joy after the attacks that killed 32 people on March 22.

Jambon, part of the Flemish separatist N-VA party, faced criticism from fellow ministers and opposition, some demanding he back up his views with evidence, others that he apologise immediately.

Michel provided backing for his minister late on Sunday, saying the national security council had been told about expressions of support for the Brussels attackers.

“I can confirm that there have been endorsements for the attacks,” Michel said in a statement, although this was only from a small minority.

3. Here is a very entertaining debate between an ex muslim woman who speaks Arabic and an English muslim on the subject of Islamic deception. The believing muslim basically provides a lot of examples of Islamic deception in her attempt to deny that it exists. I could add a lot to what Nonie says in this. But reliance of the traveler in the section about “holding one’s tongue” actually says it all.

The funny thing is, the Muslim refers to Reliance of the Traveler. She is clearly expecting that no one will actually read it.

4. Germany: Antifa picket Helmut Kohl’s house ahead of Orban meeting

5. All Muslim Groups Fail To Attend Anti-Extremism Campaign Launch

 

 

All of Scotland’s major Muslim groups declined to attend the launch of a campaign against violence and discrimination directed towards the Ahmadi sect, as well as the Paris and Brussels terror attacks.

Representatives of the local Sikh and Jewish communities, and the Church of Scotland’s inter-faith group were all present, alongside local politicians, representatives of Police Scotland and Glasgow’s lord provost.

However, representatives of the Glasgow Central Mosque and the Muslim Council of Scotland announced at the last moment they would not be coming, the Guardian reports.

(Quelle Surprise)

6. Here is a heart-breaking story about a German rape victim who committed suicide and her rapists walk free. I do not think I would be too far out on a limb to guess that the German media GAVE the rapists non-Muslim names to help deflect from the facts on this one.

Six important stories for the Counter jihad. Links 2 on April 18 – 2016

1. This video from March 25 this year, shows a massive display of fealty to the Islamic State and features the oft repeated chant of warning to Jewish people that their total extinction will be soon and at the hands of the Muslims. It appears to be in Idlib Islamic State.

2. Peculiar Siberian cafe with Obama toilet paper and other signs of ‘violent extremism’

(Something suggests that this much ink would not be good to press against a mucous membrane but the sentiment is sort of funny)

Vladimir Putin fans now have the perfect place to toast to the Russian leader thanks to a newly opened cafe dedicated solely to the action man president.

Welcome to the incredibly patriotic President Cafe in eastern Siberia, located around 4,000 km (2,500 miles) from Moscow, where Putin’s face covers the walls and Barack Obama’s smiling face is on the toilet paper.

3. Here is a pretty thorough look at the Generation Identitaire action at a play sympathetic to migrants in Austria yesterday. Seems there was more to the story than anyone bothered to report. Their own explanation of the event is in the video below but here at the Rebel is a few related videos which offer some context to the issue.

4. CIJ News does an expose on the Toronto Star’s mealy mouthed explanation for why they didn’t reprint Charlie Hebdo cartoons after the massacre in Paris and more.

(We all know the real reason. Fear for the safety of the staff at the Star from those wonderful, rich, diverse Muslims the star is so fond of)

5. Police arrest Isis recruiter who was planning attacks in Spain

(Maria tells us that this is just the most recent arrest in a long series of many Muslims acting as agents of one kind or another for the Islamic State)

6. Pushing for criminalization of truth about Islam in Austria:

(This needs to be seen for what it is. Another national manifestation of the CVE/UN bill 16/18 similar to Quebec’s bill 59)

Islamophobia or anti-Muslim racism is still not even acknowledged as a crime or a motivation for hate-crime in most European countries. In fact we still face a continuing absence of reliable and nation- as well as European-wide data on Islamophobic incidents.

In 2014, only five states of the 57 Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) member states officially reported on hate crimes against Muslims, whereas civil society reported in 21 countries.

The European Islamophobia Report (EIR) analyzed Islamophobia in 25 European countries in 2015. This is one part of the gap, where the EIR attempts to make a contribution. The other aspect is that there are still many people in Europe who refuse to even recognize that there is such a thing as Islamophobia or anti-Muslim racism.

To give an example: In Austrian daily Der Standard, an article was published highlighting the main findings of the EIR. Within the first 6 hours, there were 1,000 comments. A day later, that figure grew to more than 2,400. And unfortunately, we could not find a single positive comment.

One commentator said: “Europe needs another Prince Eugene”. For those of you unfamiliar with Prince Eugene of Savoy: He was a general of the Holy Roman Imperial Army who fought back the Ottomans at the Siege of Vienna in 1683.

(The publisher of the above article seems to be indicating that a factual history of Europe, and Austria/Vienna in particular, should be criminalized)

Thank you M., Wrath of Khan, Xanthippa, Maria J., and all. Much much more to come today. Starting to catch up to the material to deal with now that both Robert Spencer videos are published. Perhaps later some of the Q&As from Ottawa and Montreal will get done.

 

Meeting at Stockholm city planning meeting shows Swedes have had enough of Muslims

The Swedes seem to be the Golden Retrievers of Europe. Always cooperative and accepting. When Swedes start to actually want to defend themselves from anything it has to be really bad.

First, an interview with a Swedish journalist who was at the meeting and explains the significance of the event. He describes himself as having been a member of the establishment and then saw the light on certain issues, mostly Islam, and returned to classical liberalism, or in other words, islam-critical positions.

Now a video that is from the actual meeting. Only the translated parts are here. The cuts are marked with a dip-to-black transitions. The whole video can be seen here for those who speak Swedish. If anyone watches the whole video and there are parts that matter which are not in this, please let us know in the comments.

It is worth noting in advance, that the man who appears to be chairing the meeting is a Muslim migrant to Sweden, and city councilor for the Green party.

New old diseases back in Europe, freedom of speech, how quaint! Europe is full, Slaves in US and more: Links 3 on April 15 – 2016

1. Mark Steyn on Merkel’s prosecution of a TV comic

Max Miller, the “Cheeky Chappie” of Britain’s music hall, liked to say that the great thing about comedy was that it was the only job where if you’re really bad at it nobody laughs at you. The dead hand of the demographically exhausted German state is taking it to a whole other level:

The German government has approved a criminal inquiry into a comic who mocked the Turkish president, Chancellor Angela Merkel announced.

2. Deadly disease alarm in Salzburg refugee home

Health officials in Salzburg are on the alert after an asylum seeker staying in a luxury hotel converted into an refugee home was found to be suffering from a deadly disease spread by lice.

The man from Somalia had complained of intense pain and a high fever, leading to doctors being called out. On being taken to hospital, he was put in the intensive care ward on arrival and tests later confirmed he was suffering from the potentially deadly louse-borne relapsing fever, a rare disease spread by lice.

The asylum seeker had been given accommodation in the form of VIP Hotel Kobenzl in Salzburg, which had been converted to an asylum home to cope with the large number of refugees coming to the region.

Salzburg health officials quoted in local media said they had registered a growing number of diseases in asylum homes that until recently were thought to have died out in Europe. But the latest case caused particular concern.

(I guess people are determined to experience the Middle Ages in a visceral way)

3. Canadian Imam recommends on early marriage to avoid homosexuality, moral corruption

(Not to argue with the excellent blog, CIJ News, but there is no such thing as a ‘Canadian Imam’. Either one is Canadian and has Canadian values and allegiances, or one is an imam. Quite frankly I think most imams who are being honest would agree with this and the dishonest ones would agree with each other on this)

 

 

 

 

Abu Ameenah Bilal Philips, is a Canadian and Toronto-based Muslim scholar, was born as a Christian in Jamaica in 1947 and grew up in Canada, where he accepted Islam in 1972.

He completed a diploma in Arabic and a B.A. from the College of Islamic Disciplines (Usool ad-Deen) at the Islamic University of Madeenah in 1979. At the University of Riyadh, College of Education, he completed a M.A. in Islamic Theology in 1985, and in the department of Islamic Studies at the University of Wales, he completed a Ph.D. in Islamic Theology in 1994. Bilal Philips is regularity invited to mosques in Canada and abroad to speak about the teachings of Islam.

In recent years he was banned of entrance to or was deported from several countries, including Australia, UK, Germany, Kenya, Bangladesh and the Philippines, reportedlybecause of radical views or security reasons.

4. Former Czech President Vaclav Klaus — ‘Europe Is Full’

Europe is in the midst of the “most serious crisis since World War II” thanks to weak European Union (EU) elites letting in over a million migrants, former Czech President Vaclav Klaus has said.

In a robust speech at the Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) in Austria, Vaclav Klaus blamed Europe’s migrant crisis squarely on the defects of the EU’s “post-democratic” institutions and the “absurdity” of the bloc’s guiding ideology.

He also ridiculed the idea that the newly-arrived migrants would contribute to the continent’s economy by filling gaps in the labour market.

“The migrants we see in Europe these days do not come here as a labour force,” he said, adding that there is in fact no labour shortage in the first place.

5. Muslim couple in San Diego charged with keeping housekeeper as slave

A couple originally from Iraq, later domiciled in Dubai, moved to the San Diego suburb of El Cajon and brought with them their “servant” they had acquired in Dubai.  The woman, identified by police as W.M., managed to smuggle out a handwritten note asking for help, which resulted in arrest of the couple on charges of  “labor trafficking.”  But an agent who helped bust them was not so indirect.  Via the San Diego Union Tribune:

“Today’s arrests bring to light the sad reality of modern day slavery,” Dave Shaw, special agent in charge for U.S. Homeland Security Investigations in San Diego, said in a statement. “… Forced labor, which often involves individuals who are held in isolation, degraded, and most alarming — stripped of their basic human freedom — has no place in a modern society.”

The couple charged, Firas Majeed and his wife, Shatha Abbas, have pleaded not guilty.  The story told to police by W.M. is heartbreaking:

6. RCMP refugee screening a $16M flop, says internal report

(This report goes rather presciently with Robert Spencer’s Ottawa presentation which should be online tomorrow)

A $16-million RCMP project to help keep dangerous refugees out of Canada has turned out to be an expensive security flop.

An internal evaluation says the screening project delivered information too late, strayed beyond its mandate, and in the end did almost nothing to catch refugees who might be linked to criminal or terrorist groups.

Meanwhile, 30 Mounties were tied up for four years on duties that did little to enhance Canada’s security.

Then prime minister Stephen Harper said in Welland, Ont., on Sept. 9, 2015, that Canada needed to proceed cautiously in taking in refugees from war zones because they had to be properly screened for criminal and terrorism links. (Adrian Wyld/Canadian Press)

“The current approach does not appear to provide much by way of relevant information to support the admissibility screening of refugee claimants,” concludes the Sept. 29, 2015, report, obtained by CBC News under the Access to Information Act.

 

 

 

7. 60 people brawl at Swedish refugee center, staff flee

 

 

Some 60 asylum seekers have taken part in a massive fight at a refugee center in the Swedish town of Brannberg. Staff at the center were forced to escape the premises, local police said.

The ruckus started early on Friday morning, NSD media reported. Fifteen people were apparently the instigators of the brawl, which saw dishes being thrown around the premises.

“We have information about the injured,” Provincial Police Duty Officer Thomas Shäufele told NSD. He added that authorities will have to use interpreters help to find out why the fracas erupted.

8. New airliner threat: Arming Syrian jihadists with US anti-aircraft missiles

In a blunder reeking of the fallout caused by supplying Stinger anti-aircraft missiles to 1980s mujahideen in Afghanistan, civilian airline passengers are now under threat from Syrian jihadists armed with portable surface-to-air missiles (MANPADS).

Reports say some American-backed jihadi groups are being equipped with US-made MANPADS. Indications are they’re obtaining these advanced weapons either directly or indirectly from the US or its Mideast allies in connection with a recent escalation in the fighting in Syria.

On April 2, fighting broke out between western-backed al-Qaeda affiliates and the Syrian army, ending the Syrian ceasefire. The groups that broke the ceasefire included al-Qaeda in Syria (al-Nusra), the Chinese Uyghur Turkistan Islamic Party (TIP), The Levant Brigade, the Freemen of Syria (Ahrar al-Sham), Division 13 and other jihadi groups. According to AP, the US-trained and armed Division 13 is now fighting alongside al-Nusra and Ahrar al-Sham.” The latter two are part of the Turkey/Saudi/Qatar-backed Army of Conquest.[1]

Short clip from Robert Spencer’s event last night in Ottawa

The entire speech and Q&A will be edited and uploaded at some point over the next few days but for the moment I wanted to post a bit of a teaser.

One man asked a question which contained nearly every canard about Islamic history we are spoon fed by the useful idiots on a near daily basis from the ‘golden age of Al-Andaluz’ to the bringing of the Enlightenment to we “savages in Europe” by Islamic scholars.

Robert deals with them all in on succinct answer.

The rest of Robert’s superb presentation and the Q&A, which was of unusually high calibre, will be available over the weekend.

Berlin’s criminal underworld has been “lost to Arab clans” according to a new report published by the mainstream German newspaper Die Welt.

The report speaks of the ‘amazing’ sight of luxury sedans cruising up to refugee, asylum centre, and migrant lodgings filled with “people who have lost everything.”

Turkey: Saudi King Salman welcomed by Erdogan ahead of Syria talks
Saudi Arabian King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud was welcomed by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan upon his arrival at the Esenboga Airport in Ankara, Monday.
The Saudi Arabian leader arrived in the Turkish capital to strengthen bilateral relations between the two countries. A special escalator was placed to assist the king in descending from the plane ahead of his welcome by the Turkish president.

Police have uncovered a large and growing network of Islamic State fighters, at least two of whom came to Europe as “refugees.”

French and Belgian authorities have found that the scale of the threat of terrorism could be much bigger than they had previously thought. They’ve found that the members of these terror cells are mostly young Muslim men from the Brussels suburbs of Molenbeek and Schaerbeek and many were former criminals often involved with petty thefts and assaults.

Among the jihadis is Paris attacker Abdelhamid Abaaoud. Islamic State fighters in Syria gave him the name Abu Omar al-Belgiki meaning that he was Abu Omar from Belgium. Abaaoud lived most of his live in the notorious Brussels suburb of Molenbeek along with many of the other terrorists who took part in the Paris and Brussels attacks.

Fires set in Refugee Accommodation

An original translation by Oz-RIta

From this Der SPeigel news site

(1) In the Lower Saxony township of Winsen a refugee camp caught fire, police arrested a 17-year resident.

(2) In Rhineland-Palatinate an incarcerated man has since confessed to having set fire to a refugee accommodation.

A former gym in Winsen, used as a refugee shelter, was burned down on Sunday. A 17 year old resident is alleged to have started the fire in the bedroom of the building, according to the police from Lower Saxony. The officers have arrested the youth.

The caretaker noticed the fire, shortly after it broke out. The man tried to extinguish the
fire, however, the flames spread quickly to the whole house. The 25 resident adolescents were unharmed.

The fire fighters were still at work in the early afternoon, there was a lot of smoke.
An arsonists from Rheinland-Pfalz admits the deed.

An incarcerated man from Syria has now confessed to the arson of a house in the Rhineland-Palatinate town of Bingen, which had also been used as a refugee
accommodation. During the fire in the early hours of Thursday four residents and two fire fighters were injured. The multi-family house also accommodated refugees
next to Germans and seasonal workers.

Because of swastika graffiti, the investigators had initially suspected a right-wing background. After his arrest on Saturday evening the Syrian Refugee at first denied the deed but eventually confessed.

He claimed to have set the fire alone in the basement. The swastikas too were from him. He used them as distraction from his deed. According to police, the Syrian had lived for about half a year in the house
