“Freedom of speech is a principal of a free
government.
When this support is taken away, the
constitution of a
free society is dissolved and tyranny is erected on
its ruins.”
~ Benjamin Franklin ~
The slow death
of free speech by Mark Steyn
I’m opposed to the notion of
official ideology — not just fascism, Communism and Baathism, but the fluffier
ones, too, like ‘multiculturalism’ and ‘climate change’ and ‘marriage
equality’. Because the more topics you rule out of discussion — immigration,
Islam, ‘gender fluidity’ — the more you delegitimise the political system. As
it happens, the biggest ‘safe space’ on the planet is the Muslim world. For a
millennium, Islamic scholars have insisted, as firmly as a climate scientist or
an American sophomore, that there’s nothing to debate. Free speech and a
dynamic, innovative society are intimately connected: a culture that can’t bear
a dissenting word on race or religion or gender fluidity or carbon offsets is a
society that will cease to innovate, and then stagnate, and then decline, very
fast.
Great Idea, Ibrahim Hooper!
In a heated exchange last week with Fox News host
Meghn Kelly, Ibrahim Hooper – national spokesman for the Council on
American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) – issued a put up or shut up kind of
challenge to his organization's critics. Rather than acknowledge their record
and try to claim things have changed, Hooper and CAIR engage in denial and
deflection.
CAIR must fear what would happen if the broader
public understands that, thus the emphasis on "Internet hate sites."
Ibrahim Hooper issued a challenge. We thank him for it.
Interview with Joy Brighton and Glenn Beck
New York ‘Liberal’ Joy Brighton opens up about what CNN and
MSNBC haven’t invited her on to say. It's not about Islam, it's
about Sharia-ism. Author
Joy Brighton joins Glenn Beck to discuss her new book “Sharia-Ism is Here” and
the difference between religion and politics.
Death threats issued as Sharia Watch launches
in London
A new group has been launched at the House of Lords to campaign for
greater recognition of the threat posed by Islamic Sharia law. Sharia Watch UK
says it wants to highlight the impact of Islamism in Britain and campaign
against the prevalence of Sharia tribunals, particularly where it relates to
women's rights
“Our aim is quite simply to tell the truth," says
Waters. "There is a large lack of knowledge of what Sharia Law actually
stands for, what it does to women, how it treats women. And our aim is simply
to tell the public – warts and all – what Sharia is: its views of women, its
views of free speech, its threat to democracy, how it is operating in Britain,
the organisations behind it and what their agendas are, and, indeed, the public
support that such organisations receive from public figures.
Anti-Israel BDS Resolutions Seize Campuses in Ontario, Canada
It is Hamas—an offshoot of the Muslim
Brotherhood—that has fueled and directed the BDS
and Israel Apartheid Week campaigns on university campuses across North America
through chapters of the Muslim Student Association and the Palestine Solidarity
Network.
Under the guise of promoting peace and human
rights, resolutions to join Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions [BDS] drives are
being foisted on Canadian university campuses to push the agenda of the Muslim
terrorist group, Hamas, to destroy Israel.
A Deadly Virus
Is Spreading Around Saudi Arabia and It Might Be About To Go Global
Saudi Arabia has been accused
by health care experts of obscuring information about an outbreak of the deadly
Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS), after a surge in reported cases of the
virus this month. Saudi officials have refused to confirm whether their tests
suggest that the virus is mutating leading to greater human-to-human infection
rates, and will not even comment on whether such tests have been conducted
Concerns voiced by global
health professionals have been mounting as Saudi Arabia approaches the Hajj the
first week of October. More than one million Muslims travel to Saudi Arabia
each year to visit Mecca during the holy pilgrimage, in past years they have
come from 188 countries. Virologists fear that unless Saudi Arabia takes great
steps to ensure that they have contained and studied the MERS by October, it
could be risking spreading the virus globally.
Islam’s Religious War with Everyone
If Muslims
fighting Christians, Jews, Hindus and Buddhists are the victims of non-Muslims,
what are we to make of Muslims fighting other Muslims in Syria, Lebanon and
Iraq? Religious civil wars make it hard to believe that Muslims are the victims
of other religions instead of the authors of their own violence. Islam did not
expand by treating minorities well. It grew through genocide, slavery and war.
That is still how it is growing today.

Iran
sweeps coveted UN rights posts
When the criminals are made the judges, it's a
travesty of justice. The crucial role of civil society within the world
body is being eroded, its voice at risk of being silenced.
Tragically, the UN's election this
week of regimes such as Iran, Sudan, and Mauritania -- governments
that rape and torture political prisoners, subjugate women, and commit
crimes against humanity from slavery to genocide -- sends the message
that politics trumps human rights.
Vatican Diary: Francis has a new secretary who
speaks Arabic
The
admirers of the pope's new secretary, Egyptian Copt Yoannis Lahzi Gaid, have
included his fellow Egyptian Magdi Cristiano Allam, a Muslim journalist and
writer who converted to Christianity and was baptized in Saint Peter's by
Benedict XVI on March 22, 2008. For some time, he has been very critical of a
Church that in his view is too yielding toward Islam.
"I
have always tried to be the friend who respects the different religion of the
other without being afraid of speaking the truth or of emphasizing that
Christianity is a call to freedom. And when Magdi asked me about the Copts in
Egypt, I did not conceal the immense difficulties experienced by Christians in
places where the majority is Muslim. A difficulty that does not come from a few
fundamentalists, but from a culture of death and violence based on very clear
phrases that cite and call to violence and jihad, calling to kill all who are
different, to kill freedom of conscience. Thinking differently is enough for a
death sentence."
Why grooming is
a Muslim issue
In the name of Sharia, men are
seducing young girls outside the school gate, making them fall in love and then
prostituting them out to family and friends. This is the scandalous phenomenon
of grooming, which has been going on behind closed doors for over 20 years in
the UK and has been denounced by the Law and Freedom Foundation.This phenomenon
has been underestimated by social services, charities and police for fear of
being labelled racist. But the problem is growing and concerns not just the UK,
but also the Netherlands and other countries.
‘Easy Meat’: Inside the World of Muslim Rape Gangs
This week’s Glazov Gang was
joined by Gavin Boby of the Law and Freedom Foundation. He continues to share his battle against
“Muslim Rape Gangs in the U.K.” This time he discusses his report on this horrifying
phenomenon, ‘Easy Meat,’ and takes us “Inside the World of Muslim
Rape Gangs".
Part 1
Part 2
UK: Multiculturalism vs. Islamism
Former Islamic extremist Ed Husain has
referred to the result of "25 years of multiculturalism" as not
"multicultural communities" but plural "monoculturalism."
Husain recalls:
"Many Muslims want to
live apart from mainstream British society; official government policy has
helped them do so. I grew up without any white friends. My school was almost
entirely Muslim. I had almost no direct experience of 'British life' or 'British
institutions'. So it was easy for the extremists to say to me: 'You see? You're
not part of British society. You never will be. You can only be part of an
Islamic society.' The first part of what they said was true. I wasn't part of
British society: nothing in my life overlapped with it."
The Moroccans That Infuriate the Dutch
A more recent development is the pending
Dutch Moroccan takeover of the drugs and human trafficking businesses. So who,
actually, are the Dutch Moroccans about whom Dutch MP Geert Wilders recently stated:
"The fewer, the better"? Even though Moroccan street thugs do not
behave as devout Muslims and often have little knowledge of their religion and
its traditions, they nevertheless strongly identify
themselves as Muslims, and often share the political worldview of their
Islamist counterparts.The only authority they seemingly do respect is
religious in nature: the imam.
Who is in More Trouble: Wilders or The Netherlands?
At the end of his victory speech, Wilders remarked, "And the third
question is, and I'm actually not allowed to say this, because I'm being sued,
and there might even be Social Democrat DAs that would prosecute me, but
freedom of speech is a great thing, and we have said nothing that is not
allowed. We have said nothing that is not accurate.
Nigerian Christians: ‘Our Blood Will Speak
about Christ’
More than 200 pastors in the Northeastern Borno state have
either fled, closed their churches, or have been murdered by the militant Islamic
group Boko Haram.“We are willing to pay the price for our calling. We don’t
only share the Gospel when things are rosy,” he continued. “It is to be done in
every situation. Hunger and want will never discourage us. Swords and guns,
even the roar of the devil, will only encourage us to stand first for Christ.”

Bill Warner – YouTube explanation of “Tawriya”
Islam is a political system that includes deception and
lying. Many people have heard of taqiyya, but there is a lesser known form of
deception called tawriya.
Pat Condell – It’s good to be anti-Islam
If you haven't discovered Pat Condell, you
should watch this now. This guy is saying what probably most Americans think to
themselves. What he says about Islam is 101% accurate. Condell and others in
the secular and atheist community are outraged by the inherent mandates
of Islam that order Muslims to kill all unbelievers, and which allow child
marriage, women's enslavement and honor killings, and which have led Muslims to
believe in their superiority and exalted position of privilege.
It isn't individual acts of crazed Muslim
terrorists that threaten our civilization and daily life. These are rare, hard
to carry out, and not predictable. What threatens us are the efforts of CAIR,
ISNA, ICNA, Muslim Brotherhood, Muslim Students Association, Association of
Muslim Scholars, and their toadies in the mass media and universities like
Brandeis University, which have no qualms about exposing pedophile priests or
Christian killers of abortion providers but ignore crimes committed in the name
of Islam, and which are hard at work to destroy our freedom of speech and our
fundamental right to criticize all religions. Of course today it is only Islam
that is still killing people. It has a perpetual Inquisition and Crusade
against all nonMuslims and women and anything that smells of freedom and
democracy.
Most of you are still too intimidated by PC to
admit that you fear Islam. It's like what Lawrence Krauss and Richard Dawkins
said about atheism and the US Congress. There is only one publicly confessed atheist
in congress but there are undoubtedly hundreds more unbelievers in the closet,
serving in congress, who would be terrified to be outed.
There are, luckily, some sane organizations
around who are not afraid to speak out against the "religion of peace"
that spends its time urgingdeath to everyone else. Act for America, the AHA
Foundation, American-Islamic Forum for Democracy, Investigative Project on
Terrorism, Middle East Forum, the Clarion Project, plus several blogs and
journals in Europe are among this growing group, in addition to a wonderfully
burgeoning group of agnostics, atheists, skeptics, secularists, encouraged by
people like Dawkins and Krauss, who are growing in size at the exact time that
reason and sanity are needed. There are two battles we must engage in: against
climate change and against Islam and the forces of irrationality that feed
Islamic violence. The right wing denies climate change and the left denies the
threat of Islamism. We need to recognize and fight both. But above all we must
oppose the efforts to suppress the truth and to shut down the media we need to
expose the truth.
This is a fight for democracy, in case you
didn't know it.

WE REMEMBER
For Assyrians, Greeks and
Armenians, the genocide has not ended, it cannot end so long as Turkey denies
the genocide. The psychological wounds cannot be healed if the crime is not
acknowledged by the perpetrator. Islamic supremacists never, ever take
responsibility for the evil they perpetrate, and apparently the secular (and
rapidly de-secularizing) Turks are no different. The genocide did not end in
1918, it continues to this day. It has been 99 years of genocide.
