Capturing children and raping women to death in Sudan, while yelling “Allahu Ackbar”
KitmanTV asked me to capture a section of a CSPAN broadcast from 2009 where various Sudanese refugees spoke of the truly unimaginable horror they faced at the hands of Muslims, stealing their children to make future mass murderers of them to slaughter their own people in the future, and raping women to death, making slaves of the men who they let live.
Kitman is making a mini-documentary about Islam and slavery which I know is going to be fantastic when it is done, but here is the raw testimony from 2 of the people at the congressional hearings. Please feel free to download these videos to your own sites and youtube channels etc, or email this link to all you know, still in caustic denial of the nature of Islam when left free to act in full compliance with its own dogma. Please feel free to click over to CSPAN to see this whole testimony, but warning, it is over 3 hours. KitmanTV does us all a huge service by watching hundreds and hundreds of hours of various materials to bring us things we really need to see, but do not have the time to find.
Australia: male journalists ordered out of courtroom while Muslim woman testifies without niqab.
I predicted this. I knew it would only be a matter of time before sharia standards would be granted formal legitimacy and folded into western court proceedings. This woman refused to remove her niqab at a previous hearing, so to satisfy her irrational sensibilities, the judge decided that sacrificing Australia’s own laws of gender equality to suit Islamic gender apartheid practices would be a fair cultural exchange.

Muslim woman removes niqab to give evidence, as male journalists are barred from court
- From: AAP
- October 18, 2010 5:28PM
A MUSLIM woman who sparked a national debate when she asked to give evidence in court wearing a niqab has uncovered her face to testify in a fraud trial.
Tasneem, whose last name has been suppressed by the Perth District Court, gave evidence for just 15 minutes today in the trial of Anwar Sayed.
Mr Sayed, 50, is accused of falsifying student numbers at the Muslim Ladies College of Australia in Kenwick, in Perth’s south, to fraudulently obtain part of $1.125 million the school received in state and federal government grants.
Tasneem, 36, has worn a niqab since the age of 17 and wanted to wear it while giving evidence in the trial.
But Judge Shauna Deane in August ruled she must remove the face-covering garment so that the jury could see her facial expressions.
Tasneem only removes the niqab when she visits the doctor and dentist, at customs in airports and when she has her driver’s licence photograph taken.
Judge Deane last week ruled that to make it easier for Tasneem to give evidence comfortably, men would be removed from the court.
The only men allowed in the courtroom while she gave her evidence today were male jurors, the judge’s usher, Mr Sayed and the lawyers.
While female journalists were allowed to stay in the court to report on Tasneem’s evidence, male journalists were ejected.
A lawyer representing Network Ten and the Seven and Nine networks made an application on Friday to alter the order so that male journalists could remain in court, but the application was rejected.
Giving evidence via video link today, Tasneem appeared comfortable, flanked by a security person and a support person, both of whom were female.
During her brief evidence she explained that she worked at the school as an Islamic studies teacher for two hours a day, five days a week.
Tasneem said that “from time to time” some students would go overseas on holiday or to visit family, mostly in Afghanistan, so it was possible they were enrolled at the school, but did not attend for long periods of time.
Mr Sayed is the director of Muslim Link Australia, which runs the Muslim Ladies College.
He allegedly knowingly signed a declaration that in the 2006/07 census year, more than 180 students were enrolled in the school when there were 80 to 100 fewer than that.
The school received about $164,000 from the state government and about $961,000 from the federal government.
The trial continues.

Iranian Stoning Film To Be Shown In London
11:44pm UK, Thursday October 14, 2010
Lisa Holland, World Affairs correspondent
A film portraying the real-life stoning of an Iranian woman is opening in London, but it’s a film the Iranian government does not want the world to see.
The film is dedicated to Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani, facing execution in Iran.
It depicts a brutal form of punishment still sanctioned by Iran’s current hard-line regime.
The film’s director claims some European governments have been reluctant to support it – fearful of antagonising Iran’s regime, already at loggerheads with the west.
The film The Stoning Of Soraya M is based on the true story of a woman brutally killed after being falsely accused of adultery.
Soraya is stoned to death in her Iranian village under Islamic Sharia law.
The film’s director, Cyrus Nowrasteh, has dedicated the screening to Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani currently facing execution by stoning or hanging in Iran for adultery.

Amnesty International UK director Kate Allen said: “The final scenes of The Stoning Of Soraya M are quite horrific and many viewers might want to turn away. I’d urge them not to.
“This is the cruel reality of execution by stoning; watch, be enraged, and take action to stop this inhumane practice.
“The case of Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani has been taken up by people all over the world, who have protested and written letters to the Iranian authorities urging them to stop her execution by any method.
“We have to keep this pressure up and make it clear to Iran’s leaders that killing Sakineh would cause a global outrage.
“Stonings are thankfully rare in Iran but they represent the ugly tip of a very large iceberg.
“At least 190 people have already been executed this year in Iran, mostly by hanging and after unfair trials.
“Amnesty opposes the death penalty regardless of the method of execution.
“We are calling on the Iranian authorities to stop this execution, stop the use of stoning altogether and stop criminalising the sex lives of consenting adults.”
Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad accused the west of using the Ashtiani case to generate further opposition against it – at a time when Iran’s nuclear programme is drawing international condemnation and concern.
The Stoning Of Soraya M serves as a painful reminder of the ruthlesslness of the Iranian government – past and present.

More cultural enrichment in Canada: the importation of polygamy, child brides, forced marriages
From The Ottawa Sun
Polygamy, child brides pose problems for immigration officials
By BRIAN LILLEY, Parliamentary Bureau
Last Updated: October 12, 2010 4:13pm
OTTAWA – Forced marriages, child brides, polygamy and arranged marriages between first cousins are some of the problems that Canadian immigration officials in Pakistan have to deal with.
The revelations are contained in a 26-page report prepared by Canadian officials working out of the immigration and visa office in the Pakistani capital of Islamabad. The report was obtained by immigration lawyer Richard Kurland through access to information legislation and supplied to QMI Agency.
“With few exceptions, the Islamabad spousal reunification programme involves Muslim proxy marriages arranged by the families, the vast majority of which take place between first cousins,” reads the report.
According to Kurland, polygamy is most common among wealthy Pakistani families trying to immigrant to Canada. Canadian officials often won’t reject an application just because a man has more than one wife, Kurland said.
“They say we can’t do this because you are polygamists so you have to divorce some, keep one and work it out domestically,” Kurland said. Kurland told QMI that often second or third wives will be sponsored into Canada as skilled workers for a business or as a maid for the household.
As for first cousins marrying, while the practice is not common in Canada due to a higher risk of birth defects, marrying your cousin is legal in this country.
“Marriages that are legal in Canada are legal for the purposes of immigration and sponsorship,” said Alykhan Velshi, a spokesman for Immigration Minister Jason Kenney.
Tazeen Ahmad, a British woman of Pakistani descent, produced a documentary earlier this year for Channel 4 called Dispatches: When Cousins Marry.
Ahmad documented the cultural reasons for the practice among British Pakistanis as well as the problems, such as a high rate of recessive gene disorders.

The image of Aisha, 19, without a nose, prompted a worldwide outpouring of sympathy after it appeared on the cover of Time Magazine accompanying an article highlighting the plight of women in Afghanistan.
She appeared before the cameras to receive an Enduring Heart award at a benefit for the Grossman Burn Foundation, which paid for her surgery, in Los Angeles.
Maria Shriver, wife of Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger’s and California’s first lady, presented the award.
“This is the first Enduring Heart award given to a woman whose heart endures and who shows us all what it means to have love and to be the enduring heart,” Miss Shriver said.
Aisha, whose surname has never been disclosed, responded: “Thank you so much.”
When Aisha was 12, her father vowed to repay a debt by promising her in marriage to a Taliban fighter. She was handed over to the fighter’s family, abused and made to sleep in a stable with animals.
She was caught after trying to escape and her nose and ears were sliced off by her husband as a punishment.
“When they cut off my nose and ears, I passed out,” she told CNN. “In the middle of the night it felt like there was cold water in my nose. I opened my eyes and I couldn’t even see because of all the blood.”
After being left for dead in the mountains, she crawled to her grandfather’s house and was taken to an American medical facility.
Following time time at a shelter in Kabul, she was flown to the US by the Grossman Burn Foundation in August and stayed with an American family.
This month, she had a prosthetic nose fitted at the West Hills Hospital. Dr Peter H Grossman said they hoped to give Aisha a more “permanent solution”.
This might involve rebuilding her nose and ears using bone, tissue and cartilage from other parts of her body.
‘Brace yourself, the war with Muslims has just begun’: Defiant Times Square bomber laughs as he is jailed for life

Faisal Shahzad: The failed bomber has been jailed for life after claiming he was a ‘Muslim soldier’
The failed Times Square bomber was jailed for life today for his plot to bring carnage to the heart of New York.
Pakistani immigrant Faisal Shahzad had packed explosives into the back of an SUV, but the detonator failed, sparing crowds of tourists.
Calling himself a Muslim solider, Shahzad had pleaded guilty in June to 10 terrorism and weapons counts.
Today, as he was sentenced to life imprisonment with no parole, he defiantly warned the court: ‘Brace yourself, the war with Muslims has just begun.’
He added: ‘The defeat of the U.S. is imminent, inshallah.’
During in a five-munite outburst, the 31-year-old thanked the judge for the sentence and said he was ‘happy with the deal that God has given me’.
Shahzad, a former finance worker from Connecticut was arrested two days after his attempted bombing on May 1.
He had parked a sport utility vehicle full of explosive materials in the crowded area and attempted to set the bomb off as he fled.
But the bomb fizzled before it could do any harm, doomed by faulty wiring and ingredients such as a low-grade fertiliser that couldn’t explode.
For greatest impact, he chose a crowded section of Times Square by studying an online streaming video of the so-called ‘Crossroads of the World’, prosecutors said. Continue Reading →
The Ottoman Empire Reborn
by Baron Bodissey
Much public concern about Islam is focused — with good reason — on Iran, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia. Turkey, however, is an Islamic dark horse. We tend to think of it as Western, secular, and not a threat, but this is a mistake. It is dangerous not just because it has poured millions of unassimilated immigrants into Western Europe (and Milli Görüs along with them), but also because it is a member of NATO with a population that is relatively well-educated and in the midst of an Islamic revival.
Part of that revival involves the dream of a new Caliphate in the form of an Ottoman Empire upgraded for the 21st century. With the OIC — headed by a Turk, Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu — gathering the Ummah together, the nascent Caliphate is ready to burst forth.
Turkish prime minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has obvious ambitions to become the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire reborn. He and Mr. Ihsanoglu may have to duke it out to decide which one is to assume the throne of the Caliph.

Erdogan: “We Are Now the World Power Turkey”
by Michael Stürzenberger and Eckhardt Kiwitt
It is an eerie scene with great symbolic power: the Turkish leader stands on a stage in front of a large world map from which sprouts an oversized tree with the Turkish flag. Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan invited politicians of Turkish descent from all of Europe to this “world congress” in Istanbul, to initiate them into his policies. And these seem to be directed toward a new Ottoman Empire.
Original pictures of this incendiary event were “controversially” published in BR magazine. The reporter tells us that great-power-politics was being practiced here, with the motto: “Turks of all lands, unite.” With perfect seriousness, Erdogan said: “We are now the world power Turkey. Everyone should know that. Turkey is no longer a country whose agenda is set from outside, but a country that sets the agenda in the world.”
Eyewitness Ali Ertan Toprak, vice-president of the Alevite community of Germany, reported that the 1500-2000 politicians present were urged to “inoculate” the European culture with the Turkish in order to “Turkicise” these countries. Video follows [see the PI post for the video].
Only one representative from Germany spoke — the deputy general secretary of Milli Görüs, Mustafa Yeneroglu. Is it really necessary to mention that this organization is being surveilled in Germany because of activities dangerous to democracy?
Erdogan made unmistakably clear that “Islamophobia” in his opinion is a “crime against humanity.” This pugnacious concept, created by Ayatollah Khomeini, is intended to strangle Islam criticism in its cradle. An important element of Erdogan’s overall strategy of reaching out from Turkey to Islamize and Turkicize Germany. The deeply devout Erdogan may with assurance be defined as a fundamentalist. As a youth, he was a member of the radical Islamic organization Akincilar Dernegi. Erdogan is considered a political foster son Necmettin Erbakans and also belonged to the Milli Görüs movement. From 1994-1998, he was mayor of Istanbul and deputy chair of the Welfare Party RP, which was accused of being sympathetic to jihad and to the introduction of sharia. In 1998, this party was banned by the Turkish supreme court. Erdogan was banned for life from politics and sat in jail for ten months. The basis for the judgment was a speech with the legendary passage: “Democracy is only the train we board until we reach our goal. The mosques are our barracks, the minarets are our bayonets, the domes are our helmets, and the faithful are our soldiers.” Continue Reading →
Iranian woman facing death by stoning is ‘lashed 99 MORE times’ after newspaper prints picture of her without headscarf

Lashings: Sakineh Mohammad Ashtiani was allegedly whipped 99 times after an incorrect picture of her appeared in a newspaper
An Iranian widow sentenced to death by stoning for adultery has been lashed 99 times for ”spreading corruption and indecency” after a newspaper published an alleged picture of her without a headscarf, her son said last night.
Sakineh Mohammad Ashtiani, 43, was convicted of “adultery while being married” and given the death penalty after a trial over her husband’s murder in 2006.
The widow’s son Sajad, 22, has campaigned for her to be released and after the plight caused international uproar her execution was halted in July.
But supporters’ hopes have been dashed after Sajad said that his mother has been whipped 99 times after an apparent picture of her without traditional head-dress appeared in The Times last week.
The newspaper quickly withdrew the picture claiming it was of a different Iranian woman living in Sweeden but Sajad now fears that his mother could be hanged.
He said the photograph was an excuse to punish his mother and that the hardline Iranian government’s real purpose was to silence the international campaign to save her.
‘If it wasn’t the picture they would have found another excuse to try and silence her supporters outside Iran’, he said.
The Times said that it had been sent the photo “in good faith” by Mohammad Mostafaei, who was Sakineh’s lawyer in Tehran until he was forced to flee Iran at the end of July for publicising her plight.
Outrage: Sakineh’s plight has caused international uproar and her supporters hope that her death sentence will be quashed Continue Reading →Does you’re ‘maid’ try and run away from you?

Sharia in Chechnya: women attacked for not wearing head scarves

Women targeted in Chechnya

Many women in Russia’s volatile Chechnya region said on Friday they had been harassed and some physically harmed by bands of men for not wearing head scarves during the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan.
Against the backdrop of a spreading Islamist insurgency, many fear that growing interest in radical Islam could fuel separatism in the volatile North Caucasus, where the Kremlin watches uneasily as sharia law eclipses Russian.
Residents and witnesses told Reuters that bearded men in traditional Islamic dress have been roaming the streets both on foot and in cars since Ramadan started on Aug. 11, demanding bare-headed women wear a head scarf. Continue Reading →

Video of lynch mob killing two teenage brothers sparks mass demonstrations across Pakistan

A horrifying video of a crowd watching a mob beat two teenage brothers to death has sparked mass demonstrations in Pakistan.
The video, broadcast on Pakistani news channels, shows a lynch mob taking turns to savagely beat the two boys with sticks, drawing blood from them before dragging and hanging their dead bodies from a nearby pole.
But perhaps just as shocking is that none of the dozens of people and police watching tried to stop the vicious attack.
Left to hang: The brothers’ dead bodies were hung from poles after a mob, believing them to be robbers, beat them to death with sticks
It is now thought the boys, who were on their way to play cricket in Sialkot, an eastern Punjab province, may have been mistaken for robbers by the group who decided to deliver brutal justice for their supposed crime last Sunday.
The scenes have outraged Pakistanis, some who are questioning how their society could passively watch the shocking killings without intervening.
