Some links for March 4 2009

Maybe now I should make this policy change official. When I started VTB one of the issues I wished to address is the dangerous and counter productive irrational leftist movement to combat ‘anthropogenic global warming’. A disingenuous goal if ever there was one, as if you question nine in ten supporters of it long enough ultimately they will come back at you with “Yes the science on it is a little shaky but I still support it as it makes people ‘think’ the right way about the environment.” A truly repugnant and Orwellian agenda. It’s OK for me to lie to you because you making your choices based on lies makes for a better world. And typically, these are the exact same people who virulently oppose religion of all stripes. Except Tibetan Buddhism. Because they know nothing about it.

I no longer concern myself with global warming hysteria because anyone who still believes in it despite the last 8 years of climate data and the discovered falsification of facts in order to propagate this myth is clearly never going to accept the facts. They are anti corporate types who use the language of green to support a Marxist anti western agenda. They do not actually care about the ‘environment’. For an excellent essay on this read the co founder of Greenpeace, Patrick More. He states it very clearly as his reason for leaving Greenpeace altogether.

The threat we have to deal with, the one which will in fact ‘change our environment’ in every conceivable sense of the term is Islam. As Fjordman so eloquently writes extensively on, The Byzantines where an enlightened modern people with solid foundations in Greek thought as well, they were the Greeks. And as the degree of jihadi Muslims infiltrating western bureaucracies increases and the degree of submission of some of my favorite nations also grows, we clearly have decided to focus on the anti jihad. The stakes are higher than I can grasp. The degree to which the threat of the loss of all western values becomes more apparent to me each day. In the most excellent style of Mark Steyn, we at VTB try and understate the real case so that any skeptic who chooses to challenge these articles by doing honest research will discover our case is more serious than even we present it. This by the way, frightens we here at vladtepesblog as well.

The problem is two fold. The extent of jihadi preparations for violent actions against western targets, by far the lesser of the problem, compared to the extent to which Muslims who have a clear well understood and publicized agenda of global manifest destiny have infiltrated organizations typically thought of as protecting liberalism. Agencies such as the U.N. now co opted to an anti Semitic and pro sharia law agenda as we see by both Durban I and Durban II as well as the current binding resolution in front of the general assembly of the UN protecting Islam from criticism and of course, a large host of ‘Human Rights’ organizations which now actively work against any real human rights.

And on that note, some links:

Muslim girls in Norway beaten and abused for not wearing hijab all the time. Women’s groups anywhere on earth I hope are profoundly ashamed for their lack of attention on this and thousands of similar stories around the world today. All of us should of course, this isn’t a feminist issue so much as one of fundamental human rights but feminist groups who often live on Government grants seem more concerned about interpreting comments at the water cooler than they are about women being kept in London basement prisons for refusing to marry a first cousin from Pakistan. Often actually being murdered for it. Read Bruce Bawer’s ‘While Europe Slept’ for statistics on this.

Five Muslims convicted for murdering a British Teen. Of course the ‘funny’ thing about this article is how it sparked a debate on ‘knife control’ and not immigrant or Muslim control. Europe (with the notable exception of Denmark) refuses to admit that a grossly disproportionate amount of violent and politically driven crime is from Muslim immigrants who often state that the crimes they commit is for the spread of and glorification of Islam.

Muslims like to pretend their is no compulsion of religion in Islam. Something they say to ease our minds about our new Muslim overlords. I wonder how they would explain entire Bulgarian villages forced to convert to extremist Islam then?

Canada is right and truly fucked. How can one know a place is fucked? Because something as hideous as this happens in a Canadian high school, an indoctrination session by anti Semites disguised with a veneer of anti Israeli politics and they expressly forbade any adults to attend. No parents, No teachers, no recording whatsoever. The only way it could be more fucked than this, is if it did not get reported at all. Which I would wager is the case in Islamic nations. Like England.

Lastly, What would a links post be without a terrorism reference. India now states that two Pakistani officers where involved with the Mumbai attacks.

As Baron Bodissey puts it so well at GOV…

by Baron Bodissey

Ever since the Mumbai terrorist attacks last November, India has asserted that Pakistani nationals inside Pakistan were part of the conspiracy to murder and wreak havoc among the population of Mumbai. Pakistan at first denied any connection, then acknowledged that there might be a few Pakistani “rogue elements” who conspired with the attackers. As the weeks wore on, deeper and deeper connections between Pakistan and the Mumbai terrorists were ferreted out and exposed in the Indian press.

India, Islam and freedom of speech.

It is important for we in the west who see our most fundamental freedoms slipping away exponentially faster than it took to earn them in the first place to remember that India has the same problem and primarily for the same reasons. Islam. John McCain when he ran for president of the United states suggested scrapping the UN in favour of the G8 plus India and Brazil. Like most brilliant ideas, it is too far ahead of the general knowledge curve to seem reasonable but is exactly what is called for. Like relativity, Einstein’s universe shaking concepts of time and gravity, not one of Einstein’s generation accepted it but all of the following one did. The question is whether or not we have the time to wait for the next generation to adopt McCain’s theory of a union of free states. Not to take the physics analogy too far but perhaps we cant afford any uncertainty principle for very long on this one.

A blogger from India has been sending me some links about the erosion of freedom of speech there as well and for the same reasons. Muslims demand that no person or agency should be able to say anything critical of Islam and perhaps worse, no one may even reproduce things Muslim leaders say which may cast Islam in a poor light even if 100% factually correct. Horrifyingly, the odd Christian Jewish and Hindu leader senses a political opportunity and will back the Islamic stance imagining perhaps that stopping religious criticism might be good for the authority of their respective churches as well.

These people need to study history and perhaps more importantly the wording of currently debated binding resolutions now in front of the UN general assembly.

Islam will not be used as anyone’s strong man. Jews Christians and Hindus will enjoy as much protection from blasphemy as the stone Buddha’s did in Afghanistan and as churches and synagogues and temples that have been on lands bordering large Muslim populations.

A few weeks ago on VTB we blogged about an Indian editor who was fired from his job from a major Indian daily newspaper for publishing a fairly innocuous piece on freedom of speech and specifically from irrational religious authority. The author of the article did a reprint saying that no matter what riots and demonstrations take place based on what he said, he stands by every word of it and while that should be allowed to be true in all cases, this was a very good article and all of us need to stand behind it in any case.

Now Indian blogger’s find themselves in danger from the law if they challenge irrational religious authority. I do wonder if the people of the early dark ages saw the creeping draconian and arbitrary rule of the western church as not to be believed in much the way all my day to day acquaintances see the current challenge to secular freedoms. But knowing the likely answer to that question is not nearly as interesting as one might think. Not only did they probably not see it coming as an unimaginable and unlikely event but we will know similar restrictions as handed down by bodies like the U.N. The E.U. and any other social policy body infected with Islamist organizations such as the Organization of Islamic Countries.

From the Times of India:

NEW DELHI: A 19-year-old blogger’s case could forever change the ground rules of blogging. Bloggers may no longer express their uninhibited views

on everything under the sun, for the Supreme Court said they may face libel and even prosecution for the blog content.

[…]

This chilling warning emerged as a Bench comprising Chief Justice K G Balakrishnan and Justice P Sathasivam refused to protect a 19-year-old Kerala boy, who had started a community on Orkut against Shiv Sena, from protection against summons received from a Maharashtra court on a criminal case filed against him.

Petitioner Ajith D had started a community on Orkut against Shiv Sena. In this community, there were several posts and discussions by anonymous persons who alleged that Shiv Sena was trying to divide the country on region and caste basis.

Reacting to these posts, the Shiv Sena youth wing’s state secretary registered a criminal complaint at Thane police station in August 2008 based on which FIR was registered against Ajith under Sections 506 and 295A pertaining to hurting public sentiment.

Hurting public sentiment. This sounds a lot like the threat to public safety the British used to prevent Geert Wilders from speaking in the UK. or the Canadian section thirteen of the ‘hate crimes act’ where something which is said is likely to expose a person or group to hatred or contempt under which countless Canadians have been charged most famously Mark Steyn and Ezra Levant. It seems as if nations which once stood proud and defiant in the face of religious intolerance now have created special rules which those very intolerant groups use against us. These laws go from the frightening to the ridiculous which in fact are more frightening. When they pass laws about not speaking out against their religion directly at least at one level of reason we understand it. When they pass a law saying no one may use an elephant as a symbol as it offends worshipers of the Hindu god Ganesh we now are hamstrung in anything we may say or represent for fear of any religious authority finding offense in it, and as there is now great power in being offended, you can bank on an objection from the funny hat crowd.

Thought crimes laws are like a machine gun in the sense that we like them when we are holding them but we like them less when someone else is pointing them at us. They are unlike a machine gun in another way however. Whenever you create a law which abrogates free speech no matter how noble the initial purpose may be for that law, its not a matter of if but of when someone else will take control of it and destroy its original intent and we as a free people along with it.

This has clearly happened at the U.N. in Canada, India and Holland. Do not imagine this will not effect you. It already has. It just may take a while to notice. Cancer is like that.

Links for February 18 2009 tennis and Pakistan

Two stories about Israel and tennis. A match in Dubai where Israeli teams had qualified had to be re worked when the nation of Dubai refused to allow in any Israeli’s despite having signed an agreement to abide by all rules of the world class tennis championships. The Israeli players qualified and where to be allowed to play. Dubai cancelled the visa to let the Isreali’s enter the UAE. I didn’t blog that actually at the time but now that Sweden, while allowing the match to go forward, has banned any spectators from attending for ‘safety reasons’ much like many Scandinavian cities told Jewish kids not to attend school for their own safety and we have something that looks a lot like late 30s Germany despite the thin veneer of a reason. Apparently, so many Muslims in Sweden created such a ‘Fuhrer’ that the authorities felt they had to prevent any attendees at all.

Here is a rather prophetic posted essay from Gates of Vienna dating back to 2004. I think given the events since then especially the response by the Muslim community starting during the defense against attacks from Gaza by Isreal and continuing to this day, its a worthwhile read.

The big story I think of the week so far, (and it’s only Wednesday) is the question of the ‘peace deal’ with the Taliban over the implementation of sharia law in the Swat Valley. I also have not posted a great deal about it because there is just too much wrong with the articles I have read. Firstly, I cannot understand how allowing a  hostile force to implement a reign of terror on the people of Swat is anything other than a surrender. How is it a peace deal or a compromise of any kind? The Taliban has already blown up as many schools for girls as they can. What makes Pakistan think they will stop? This is a large part of sharia law. No education for women except Quoran. Many are fleeing the area mostly women, artists and anyone not wishing to be killed by the flimsiest whims of some Muslim cleric for a seemingly arbitrary breach of this 7th century law. One man was killed for having his pant cuff to low down and he was apparently a good observant Muslim. Also, according to www.stratfor.com some reports seem to show the US very against this deal while other stories show the Obama Administration as supporting it.

No matter how you look at it, it is very bad. Add to this the admission that the Mumbai attacks where planned at the top of the Pakistani military machinery and we have a serious question as to the degree to which Pakistan is any kind of ally at all. Not to mention recent revelations about Musharaff’s known collusion’s with Al Queda and the Taliban using US money and materials to aid them.

Some sites are suggesting that the Pakistanis should allow Taliban to have Swat in exchange for peace with Pakistan. This is absurd of course. Anyone following Pakistan would know that just as one example, The Taliban have threatened to blow up any bus playing Music or movies if they did not stop this practice immediately. They did of course. This was just the first victory. Taliban/Al Queda will not stop until Pakistan is another sharia state and similar to the Afghanistan of the Taliban. Not to mention control of the nukes. Given that the ISI Pakistan’s intelligence inter service agency may have planned and trained the Mumbai attackers as well as supplied the attacks on India of serial concurrent bombings of commercial and tourist areas with commercial explosives its insane to think that giving them a state on the doorstep of Pakistan will do anything except accelerate the process of the destruction of Pakistan as a nation state altogether.

Pakistan caught double bluffing the US on the war on terror

From The Times online UK:

Pervez Musharraf was playing ‘double game’ with US


Outgoing Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf inspects a guard on honor before leaving the presidential house in Islamabad, Pakistan

Mr Musharraf has reacted angrily to the books allegations of double-dealing

Washington sent Special Forces into Pakistan last summer after intercepting a call by the Pakistani army chief referring to a notorious Taleban leader as a “strategic asset,” a new book has claimed.

The intercept was ordered to confirm suspicions that the Pakistani military were still actively supporting the Taleban whilst taking millions of dollars in US military aid to fight them, according to the “The Inheritance,” by the New York Times correspondent David Sanger.

In a transcript passed to Mike McConnell, the Director of National Intelligence in May 2008, General Ashfaq Kayani, the military chief who replaced Pervez Musharraf, was overheard referring to Maulavi Jalaluddin Haqqani as “a strategic asset”. The remark was the first real evidence of the double game that Washington had long suspected President Musharraf was playing as he continued receiving US military aid while aiding the Taleban.

Mr Haqqani, a veteran of the anti-Soviet mujahidin wars of the nineties, commands a hardline Taleban group based in Waziristan and is credited with introducing suicide bombing into themilitants’ arsenal.

Washington later intercepted calls from Pakistani military units to Mr Haqqani, warning him of an impending military operation d esigned to prove to the US that Islamabad was tackling the militant threat.

“They must have dialled 1-800-HAQQANI” a source told Mr Sanger. “It was something like, ‘Hey, we’re going to hit your place in a few days, so if anyone important is there, you might want to tell them to scram’.”

The intercept was the clue that led the CIA to uncover evidence of collusion between the Pakistani Inter-Services Intelligence agency (ISI) and Mr Haqqani in a plot to carry out a spectacular bombing in Afghanistan. Two weeks later, India’s Embassy in Kabul was bombed, killing fifty-four people and prompting a CIA mission to Islamabad to challenge the government with their evidence.

The first cross-border strike took place in early September without Islamabad’s knowledge after Washington concluded that no one could be trusted with the information.

General Kayani, a former ISI chief, became army chief when Mr Musharraf relinquished that post in 2007, a year before he was forced to quit as president. Worryingly for Washington, General Kayani remains Pakistan’s army chief.

Mr Musharraf reacted angrily to the book’s allegations of double-dealing, which appeared in the Pakistani press for the first time yesterday. “Get your facts correct, I have never double-dealt,” Mr Musharraf told Pakistani television stations.

“There is a big conspiracy being hatched against Pakistan, to weaken the Pakistan army and the ISI to weaken Pakistan.”

Mr Sanger’s book, detailing the foreign policy challenges inherited by the Obama Administration, was published in the US last month. In it, US intelligence officials also speak of their fears that Islamist militants might launch a spectacular attack on Indian soil in the hope of ramping up tensions on the subcontinent, leading Pakistan to deploy its nuclear weapons

First, some good news. As readers here may know, we have had a continuing thread questioning the value of the Canadian support of the current government in Afghanistan. There have been so many incidents of Islamic sharia implemented under the new more ‘liberal’ government that one wonders if we aren’t just replacing one theocratic brutal regime with ‘Taliban Lite’. Here is a photo shoot and article about a peace march, for once actually wishing for peace as opposed to being for war but on the other side, from of all places, Toronto. Pashtun’s, one of the indigenous tribes of Pakistan and Afghanistan and actually one of the tribes for which the anagram name of Pakistan was forged, are trying to raise awareness of how the Taliban is in fact destroying all attempts to build civilization by the Pashtun, destroying all schools for girls and you can bet changing the curriculum for boys to limit it to Quran, Islamic studies and basic rocketry. This is encouraging. Where is the media? same place as always. Out for a drink and looking through their Rolodex for someone at the CIC or Canadian Arab federation to tell them what they are allowed to print. From Atlas Shrugs. The article itself seems a little hastily written but the facts are solid. The Swat Valley in Pakistan is now a Taliban stronghold so much so that the Taliban, now a solid partner of Al Queda is successfully making demands on Pakistan proper to implement sharia. At least this article makes an excellent counter position to ours at Vlad as to why we should be in Afghanistan. If for nothing else, for the Pashtun.

Im sorry to have to post this one. Obama’s administration is taking the US into Durban II, the anti western and anti Semitic hate fest this one based on the preparatory statements made, seem to show it as being far more virulent than Durban I was. Here is an article which shows the best case scenario. Naivete on the part of the Obama admin. I hope Anne Bayefsky, the author of this article is correct and it is nothing more insidious or opportunistic than merely a deluded sense of what he can accomplish for western liberal democracy by US attendance. Thanks to Fred at Gayandright for sending me this. Sample below:

In a major foreign-policy decision taken over the weekend, President Obama has decided to legitimize the United Nations’s “anti-racism” forum known as Durban II. State Department officials announced in a press release buried on Saturday, that starting today the United States will attend for the first time the preparatory meetings of this controversial U.N. conference. The “Durban Review Conference,” scheduled for April in Geneva, is the progenitor of the anti-semitic hatefest that took place in South Africa in early September 2001.

The searing images of the demonization of America and Jews on the U.N.’s global stage, and the terrorism in New York 72 hours later, should have made joining this revived forum for U.N.-driven hate inconceivable. But President Obama seems intent on learning the lessons of history — and the relationship between hatemongering and violence — the hard way.

Here is a depressing article but well backed up with facts and stats about the use of rape of women by Islamists as a weapon of jihad. Te clip below deals with the issue in Australia but goes into detail about how rape was a central tool of Islamics in India along with links to chapter and verse of hadith explaining the ‘logic’ behind it.

The Sydney gang rapes, committed by groups of Muslim men upon Australian women, are still fresh in memory. The men taunted the women while raping them, saying that the women “deserved it” because they were not covered and staying at home as Islam commands women to do.

Now this phenomenon, already so pronounced with small muslim populations (The 2001 census showed the UK had 1.5 million muslims), evolves into something even more sinister as the muslim population rises. Women are kidnapped (they simply vanish in the vast network of “Islamic centers”), used to commit terrorist acts, and so on. Let us look at some such incidents in India in the past few months. First, a bit of historical and theological background.

The very first accounts of the muslim invasions of India, by Mohammed Bin Qasim in 712AD, talk in some detail about the women captured and sexually enslaved. Indeed, it is described as one of the major accomplishments of the subjugation of the Hindus…

Do go to the link to read the rest it’s crucial that we in the west examine India for a template of what is occurring in western lands now. The article ends with this caveat: “Remember, women are always Islam’s first victims.” I am not personally sure if they are the first, but they are certainly the most numerous.

Links February 14 2009

Here is a series of links to events and essays which I feel are very worthwhile as well as worth the time to read. This being St. Valentine’s its noteworthy that this was a real man in ancient Rome, and he was canonized as a patron St. to lovers. So it suddenly seems quite logical why Islam loathes and despises Valentines day around the world and is acting out in the usual puerile fashion it so often does. Valentines day requires women to be people and have some actual right to their own romantic destiny which is what Valentine represented. Hence the photo below. From Atlas Shrugs:

Roses are red … and unwanted in Saudi Arabia as a Riyadh flower vendor shows how the vice squad crush red roses while enforcing a law banning Valentine’s Day celebrations in the conservative desert kingdom. Islamic law strictly segregates the sexes before marriage, so flowers, chocolates and romantic dinners shared by boyfriend and girlfriend are next to impossible.

Hence… jihad against flowers, chocolates, and romantic dinners.

latimes_religiouspolice

Next, a rather excellent historical essay about Indias harsh and lengthy struggle to survive as a people and a culture under near constant Islamic destruction with numerous quotes by Islamic scholars of the day describing destruction and humiliation of the Hindu’s under various Islamic jihad’s. India knows Islam as an enemy better than anyone. The need for Europe Israel and the west overall to join with India in every way may be central to defeating this, the third Jihad. Remember, the accounts in the above link where written by the Muslim conquerors themselves. Like the Nazis they felt what they did was a great thing and documented it well.

Concerning Australia’s deadly fires, we know four things. 1. There are rumors of jihadi sites suggesting that fires be set to destroy as much as possible as its relatively easy to do in the dry summer of parts of Australia and grandiose 911 style plans haven’t worked well as frankly they get caught. So while this isn’t a very glorious way to wage jihad on the people of Australia who where nice enough to let Muslims in from whatever shit hole nation they came from, it might be an effective one. This is not evidence, but its an interesting coincidence because 2. we do know that the fires are indeed arson. This was made clear. and we also know 3. That a wanted picture of a perp in connection with the fires has been published although no name. We can judge for ourselves what the motive may be and lastly and interestingly 4. we know that Muslims in Australia are gloating about the fires and enjoying the fact like Palestinians on 911 which makes the first three points unimportant. That is to say, even if the fires where not arson, where not set by Muslims as part of Jihad, they are acting as if it was and are gleeful about the misery destruction and death of their adopted countrymen. Repugnant? Doesn’t come close.

Lastly, Pakistan now admits the most recent horrors in Bombay/Mumbai where indeed planned in Pakistan.

Islamabad (AsiaNews/Agencies) – Pakistani interior minister Rehman Malik admitted today, for the first time, that “some part of the conspiracy related to the [November 26] Mumbai attacks was planned in Pakistan.” At least 6 people believed to be involved have been arrested, and 2 more are being sought, but the investigation is ongoing and further developments are not ruled out.

It is said that some of the conspirators could be members of the outlawed extremist group Lashkar-e-Taiba, including Zia-ur-Rehman Lakhvi and Zarrar Shah, who sent “an e-mail claiming responsibility for the attack.” Shah has been in jail since December.

Those under arrest also include Hamad Amin Sadiq, considered the “main architect” of the plot, who arranged the transfer of money used for the attacks, and Javed Iqbal, an expert in internet technology living in Barcelona. The money came from Spain and Italy, and SIM telephone cards from Austria and India were used. Also in jail is the person who sold the boat engine used by the attackers to reach Mumbai by sea.

Editor fired for hurting Muslim’s feelings

Editor arrested for ‘outraging Muslims’ From The Independent UK

Protests against Indian newspaper over article reprinted from Independent

By Jerome Taylor

Thursday, 12 February 2009

The editor and publisher of a major Indian newspaper have been arrested for “hurting the religious feelings” of Muslims after they reprinted an article from The Independent. Ravindra Kumar and Anand Sinha, the editor and publisher of the Kolkata-based English daily The Statesman, appeared in court yesterday charged under section 295A of the Indian Penal Code which forbids “deliberate and malicious acts intended to outrage religious feelings”.
Sections of central Kolkata have been paralysed by protests for much of the past week after The Statesman republished an article by The Independent’s columnist Johann Hari. Titled “Why should I respect oppressive religions?”, the piece was originally printed in The Independent on 28 January. In it, Hari said he believed the right to criticise any religion was being eroded around the world.

The Statesman, a highly respected liberal English-language daily, reprinted the article on 5 February, causing a major backlash among a small group of Muslims who felt that the piece slighted the Prophet Mohamed and insulted their religion. Peaceful protests were held outside The Statesman’s offices at the weekend but by Monday, demonstrations had turned violent. Angry crowds began blocking roads, attacking police and calling for the arrest of the article’s author and the newspaper’s publisher and editor. On Monday and Tuesday police used baton charges to try to disperse crowds and more than 70 protesters were arrested.

Pakistani schools mirror UNRWA ones. Go figure!

For Pak kids, ‘J’ is for jihad Times of India

(This article may be worth reading in the context of the recent post, UNRWA now 99% terror free!)

ISLAMABAD: Thousands of Pakistani schoolgoing children are growing up learning that the Urdu equivalent of the letter A stands for Allah, B for
‘bandook’ (gun) and J for jihad.

Though not officially prescribed for pre-schoolers, books printed by Iqra Publishers are being used in several regular schools and madrassas across Pakistan.

The three examples of Allah, ‘bandook’ and jihad are not the only ones which sound like a “blueprint for a religious fascist state”. The Urdu letter for the T sound stands for ‘takrao’ (collide), K for ‘khunjar’ (dagger), H for ‘hijab’ (veil) and Z for ‘zunoob’ (sins) – which includes watching television, playing musical instruments
and flying kites.

According to the National Bureau of Curriculum and Textbooks, Class 5 children are expected to “acknowledge and identify forces that may be working against Pakistan”, “make speeches on jihad and shahadat (martyrdom)”, “understand Hindu-Muslim differences and the resultant need for Pakistan”, “India’s evil designs about Pakistan” and “demonstrate by actions a belief in the fear of Allah”, said a report in Newsline magazine.

India Israel, Hindu’s and jews join to oppose common enemy.

As we saw in a previous post here on Vlad linking to an article from The Ottawa Citizen the Muslim terrorists who attacked Mumbai and made special efforts to target Jewish people and institutions in India where trying to sour relations between Israel and India.

From a phone call to the terrorists who attacked the Jewish center..

The caller went on: “If the hostages are killed, it will spoil relations between India and Israel.”

Fortunately their logic is poor. The fastest way to unite a people is to attack them. So I was delighted to see this report from Pajama’s media about a planned rally of Hindu’s and Jews and other victims of Islamic terrorism for Washington DC Jan. 20th.

“The oldest traditions of the world, Hinduism and Judaism, are facing the biggest threat of our times in the form of Radical Islam. Today this problem threatens humanity itself. The brain washing of Islamic children with intolerant ideologies, is being funded by countries like Saudi Arabia and Iran. There is an urgent need to control the use of enormous oil revenues directed at efforts to Islamize the whole world.”

Israel and the Jewish people as well as India and the Hindu’s could of course educate the western world, most of who’s inhabitants often feel that history begins at the renaissance , as to how well Islam has acted as a neighbor and more often as oppressor. Nice to see India’s relations with Israel strengthened by the attacks even though that was entirely predictable.

After the attacks on Bombay in 2001 it took a year before tensions escalated between India and Pakistan before the US and Bush administration had to step in and defuse a nuclear Mexican stand off. It has only been a couple of months since the Mumbai attacks by the same actors, renegade perhaps but state actors for Pakistan. It is worth paying close attention to India as well as how the Obama Admin. will deal with it. The US of course will have to try and defuse the situation but the same method, getting Pakistan more onside with the war on terror, simply can’t work this time. Pakistan is both the source of regional terrorism and it’s greatest victim.

If anyone is aware of a historical situation similar to this one, please write about it in the comments section. Certainly Indian action against Pakistan would be as in the situation with Israel, a lose lose. Indian inaction also like Israel, means death by a thousand cuts.

Ottawa Citizen: Mumbai attackers ordered by phone to kill: Documents

From the Ottawa Citizen Jan 7 09

pakterrorist

MUMBAI – Militants who attacked Mumbai were urged to kill their hostages in cold blood and fight to the death in the name of Islam, according to transcripts of intercepted telephone calls made public Wednesday.

In one exchange, one of the two attackers who stormed the luxury Oberoi-Trident hotel was told to “inflict the maximum damage” and to “kill all hostages, except the two Muslims” they were holding.

“We have three foreigners, including women,” the attacker identified as Fahadullah said.

“Kill them. Keep your phone switched on so that we can hear the gunfire,” he was told.

The transcript then said the two attackers were heard to tell the two Muslims to step aside and order the hostages to stand in a line. Gunfire was heard then cheering.

Details of the attackers’ conversations, allegedly with their six “Pakistan-based handlers”, are contained in a dossier of evidence that India says “unmistakenly” points to elements in Pakistan being behind the attacks.

The document, obtained by The Hindu English-language newspaper, puts the official death toll at 165 civilians and security personnel – two more than previously – plus nine of the 10 attackers.

It also lists items recovered after the attacks, including Pakistan-made weapons and global positioning systems with co-ordinates of a sea route from off southeast Pakistan, as well as Pakistani washing powder and shaving cream.

As well as Pakistan-made weapons and global positioning systems with coordinates of a sea route from off southeast Pakistan, it includes items such as pickle, washing powder and shaving cream manufactured across the border.

Much of the detail has emerged piecemeal since the 60-hour siege ended on November 29, including claims that the banned Pakistan-based Islamist group Lashkar-e-Taiba trained, equipped and financed the operation.

Islamabad has angrily rejected allegations from Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh that the attacks had the support of some “official agencies” and that Pakistan was using terrorism as an “instrument of state policy”.

The head of Pakistan’s powerful Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) agency, Lieutenant General Ahmad Shuja Pasha, countered strongly, telling Der Spiegel magazine in an interview that it was fighting terrorism, not India.

“We may be crazy in Pakistan, but not completely out of our minds. We know full well that terror is our enemy, not India,” he was quoted as saying in the German publication’s online edition.

He also rejected claims that ISI-sponsored Pakistani groups were behind the attacks, accusing India of giving them “nothing, no names, no numbers, no connections”.

The dossier – a 13-page summary and 50 pages of supporting documents – contains phone numbers and email addresses allegedly linked to LeT commanders.

According to the transcript, one of the two attackers at the Nariman House Jewish cultural centre was told: “Brother, you have to fight. This is a matter of prestige of Islam.

“Fight so that your fight becomes a shining example. Be strong in the name of Allah… Brother, you have to fight for the victory of Islam. Be strong.”

A separate call added: “Keep in mind that the hostages are of use only as long as you do not come under fire because of their safety.

“If you are still threatened, then don’t saddle yourself with the burden of the hostages, immediately kill them.”

The caller went on: “If the hostages are killed, it will spoil relations between India and Israel.”

An attacker replied: “So be it, God willing.”

Five hostages, including a rabbi and his wife, were later found dead with the two militants.

India PM makes harsher accusations against Pakistan for Bombay attacks.

India’s PM made more direct accusations of Pakistani state involvement  in the Oct. attacks on various targets in Mumbai.

India’s prime minister said Tuesday that Pakistani authorities “must have had” a hand in the Mumbai siege, a remark dismissed by Pakistan as propaganda that could undermine efforts to bring the perpetrators to justice

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh repeated India’s allegations that the November attacks were was carried out by the Pakistan-based militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba. But in his most forceful speech on the subject, Singh stopped just short of accusing Islamabad of directly aiding the gunmen.

Thank you Muslim protesters.

I would like to take a minute and profoundly thank the multitudes of screaming genocidal Muslim protesters who have graced the streets of the civilized world from Canada Europe and beyond since the start of Israel’s retaliation to Gazanian missiles. You bring me huge relief. I really mean this. You do for me what I could never do if I wrote day and night seven days a week attempting to expose the true nature of Islam.

The greatest threat to civilization is the ‘soft Jihad’. The subtle infiltration of institutions of state such as the CBC in Canada or the various human rights commissions or the NDP as has been suggested by Tarek Fatah and other non terrorist Muslims who have been trying to ring the alarm bells in Canada for some time to the threat of more orthodox Islam. This soft jihad has been so effective that the left and center in Canada as well as most European nations have done everything they can to assist the Islamification of the west even including the intolerance of non Muslims hatred of Israel and jews and loss of rights of non Muslims in some ways which is central to Islam yet anathema to Europe’s traditional left.

However the chanting of “gas the jews” in Holland or, “What you need is a bog oven, all the Jews need to be in a big oven” in Florida and similar chants in protests all over the world may actually help wake enough people up to the true nature of Islam that we may beat you. Yes its hard to believe that all the acts of terrorism, the most horrifying that your imaginations are capable of has not done the job for us but it has helped. In this photo from Toronto below I see three flags together. India Canada and Israel. Victimization clearly has drawn India into the fold. They will be a powerful ally once the infidel world wakes up.

flags
So keep chanting Death to Jews and ‘We will rape your bitches’and by all means march everywhere and everywhen you can. I cannot wake up the people of the world to the threat of Islam alone. I need your help.

Below is an article as a comment on Right Girl’s post about the protest in Toronto. I hope the person who published this comment does not mind me republishing it here but I really feel it needs to be seen especially by any Canadians who think this is some kind of far away problem.

  1. Hi Wendy, sorry I didn’t see you when you left. Things got a little confusing as I didn’t know that they were going to parade up Yonge St. to Bloor and across to Avenue Road. When they started to pour out of Dundas Square into the street, the police started to have us move west on Dundas as a group. After we turned north on Bay someone told me that we we headed for the Israeli consulate and a few blocks later I learned where that was. The police were with us on their bicycles and told us they wanted us to get to the consulate first so that we could be in position before the demonstrators got there.

    Many others had left so by the time we got there, we were less than one hundred in size. There was a set of actual barricades (not just the bicycles at Yonge and Dundas) at the north curb and another at the centre line of Bloor. It was about 15 or 20 minutes before the first demonstrators arrived and the police were standing between the two sets and all the mounted police were also there with horses and their riot shields across the horses eyes. I don’t know how they acted on their trip up Yonge and across Bloor but when they arrived and saw us all there they were really riled up. One muslim leader was between the barriers with the police trying to get the worst of the young men to calm down, to no avail.

    There were as you know a couple of Hindus with us due to the recent terrorism in Mumbai. It’s time that all non-muslim people in Canada start to get the message whether they follow any religion or not. There were many cries of DEATH TO ALL INFIDELS, ALL INFIDELS MUST DIE. One was grabbing his crotch and thrusting the stick and his sign between his legs shouting WE’LL RAPE ALL YOU(R) BITCHES! There should have been many charges laid under section 319(2) of the Criminal Code. Not only did the police not charge anyone, about 15 minutes after the demonstrators arrived our group started to move around the corner to the west side of Avenue Road. I asked why we were leaving and was told that the police had asked us to move as they were beginning to believe that if the barricades broke they couldn’t protect us so they asked us to move along. As I rounded the corner I could see all the muslims crawling all over the property of the church on the north-east corner of Bloor and Avenue Road. The traffic southbound had been stopped at Cumberland and we were escorted across Avenue Road and headed east with all the traffic on Cumberland to Bay St. By this time I realized we were really stretched out due to sidewalk construction and that we had absolutely no police escort. Not very good keeping their motto to serve and protect.

    I also didn’t know their permit included heading south to the U.S. consulate to burn flags. I believe it’s also time for Canadians to realize that they have to stop the anti American rhetoric towards our (and their) largest trading partner, neighbour and best friend, and allie through two world wars. It seems to me that the lesson of Neville Chamberlin and appeasement have been forgotten.

    Take care and may God bless you.

  2. Thank you Man with hat. I wonder why we didn’t see these reports by any paid journalists. Oh yeah cause its illegal. They would be brought up on hate crimes charges for reporting facts which Muslims would find casts them in a bad light or they as likely would be threatened with death. I guess its up to the blogosphere to actually inform people of the facts and events which shape our times.

    Eeyore.

Interview with David Harris former Chief of Strategic Planning for CSIS and current Director of INSIGNIS

Here is an interview with a man in a position to know what is going on with respect to Islamic terrorism in the world. He speaks of Iran, Hamas Spain and the soft Jihad. Sadly this is only about thirty percent of the total interview he gave as the sound quality was simply too poor on the first two thirds to be able to make one’s way through. In this last third he does make some very strong points about the truly grave dangers facing the western world, Canada and the USA in particular and the danger of unchecked immigration.

An article by David Harris is available here about the infiltration of Islam to the Canadian political mainstream.

David B. Harris is a Canadian lawyer, Director of INSIGNIS Strategic Research Inc’s International and Terrorist Intelligence Program, and former Chief of Strategic Planning of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS).

(Note from James Cohen)

“This show created some difficulty for me, not the least of which is the horrific nature of the information Mr. Harris gave and the severity and immediacy of the threat facing the western world and classical civilization itself, but because I never before have had to edit any show other than making the transitions from speech to music a little smoother but never for content. In this case as we had massive sound issues due to a number of new variables we introduced in this particular show, the first 2/3rds of the program are simply unlistenable and I felt that it would be better removed. However for those who would like to hear the entire file I will make it available as a download by request through email. You can understand the first part but it takes some focus. Anyone wishing to hear the entire show may email me at ja***@***************io.com and I would be happy to send you the entire thing. I wish to stress that no editing was done in order to change the context or nature of any information Dave Harris gave but because of the technical issues with the first parts of the show. Also, after we say good bye to Mr. Harris he brings up a rather excellent point at the end about how people who are preventing any real threat mitigation by demanding no loss of civil rights are very likely facing a situation where any civil rights are a distant memory for all of us and likely for a very long time.”

India fears Pakistan will manufacture more fake Hindu terror to blame on India

From the times of India

NEW DELHI: Last week’s bomb blast in Lahore could have become a diplomatic incident if a little known Taliban group had not
owned responsibility.

However, the incident has many security officials worried, because in the coming days and weeks, there could be other such “incidents” manufactured by the over-active Pakistani establishment to “blame” India.

The fear is that the process could go to the extreme of triggering bigger blasts at institutions and then describing them as “Indian surgical strikes” which could then “invite” Pakistani retaliation.

There is a general conclusion in India that the Pakistan army is spoiling for a fight. That has resulted in a lot of diversionary tactics including hoax calls, air force alerts and moving troops towards the Indian border, to leave the western border unattended.

The Lahore blast last week, which killed one person, prompted the Pakistani establishment to blame India, even saying that they had arrested an Indian. This could have had implications if it hadn’t been for some Taliban group in Waziristan claiming responsibility.

Subsequently, India was concerned enough to issue a rare travel advisory to its citizens, asking them to get out of Pakistan forthwith to avoid being implicated in some strange event there.

Sources said the strategic reason for Pakistan army and jihadis trying to provoke a conflict with India is not far to see. It suits them if India reacts like it did in 2001-02 with Operation Parakram, the mass mobilisation exercise. The Pakistan army and the jihadis don’t want security forces in the FATA and NWFP areas. This would give the Taliban a free hand to take positions in Afghanistan and make the resurgence of Taliban into a regime change game. Or at the very least, have their forces in position before new US president Barack Obama sends his 30,000-strong “surge” in Afghanistan by spring. In many ways, it would be the decisive war for Afghanistan.

But this is a dangerous strategy, analysts said, because the blowback on Pakistan could be equally huge. It could create the space for Pashtuns and Taliban to create a swathe of “Talibanistan” in the tribal areas.

The first signs of this is already being seen. Pakistani media is already apprehensive of the implications of the fall of Swat and Orakzai agencies to the Taliban this week. In Swat, the announcement to close girls schools by January 15 is being seen as the tipping point.

An editorial in The News said, “The notion that somehow the militants are our allies runs as a strong and deep current through elements of the army and intelligence services, the bureaucracy and the politicians themselves. There are powerful forces that provide tacit if not overt support to them, forces which would like to see the Taliban triumphant in the rest of Pakistan and not just Swat. The caliphate of Swat is becoming a reality before our eyes. Where next?”

Videos: Pakistan moves troops to LOC, air force sends signal to India, Israel attacks Gaza

Here are a few videos from the Times of India. The signals are clear between India and Pakistan that tensions are rising and Israel launches the most severe attack on Gaza in over 20 years.
