Colorado Sheriff's Joke Causes Muslim Woman's 'hurt feelings'

Some quick comments:

Oh here we go again - a poor muslim suffering from hurt feelings - oh the inhumanity of it all!!!!!  Now a voluntary Christmas tree trimming party is "politically incorrect" and Larimer County Sheriff Jim Alderden's joke has caused hurt feelings to a muslim woman who chooses to remain unnamed!

You know what I think is politically incorrect? - having people come into or live in the USA (or Great Britain or any other Christian nation) and tell us our Judeo/Christian traditions are 'politically incorrect' then go on to force our public schools and buildings to be rebuilt to accomodate their medieval religion/customs with footbaths, special toilets they can squat on, separate swimming/pool times for boys/men and girls/women, halal meals, and prayer rooms that are quickly turned into mosques thus no other faith can use it - otherwise the room are defiled- etc etc/ 

Then this woman goes on to spout the typical, over-used twaddle:

"We can't let our religion be hijacked by extremists," she said.

Oh really??

Why there are 1.5 BILLION  muslims in the world  including the supposedly small number of extremists - so the extremists are clearly outnumbered by moderate muslims therefore why don't the moderates eradicate those who do not represent them and threaten their countries and people? - those who cause bloodshed and terrorism?  Instead these "mainstream" muslims trot out the above statement (or facsimile) as some kind of shield that protects them from the truth & reality.  Ask a muslim man or woman the above question and don't hold your breath waiting for an answer.

Especially when the true feelings of many muslims is voiced again by this unnamed 'volunteer" who also suffers from unverified "threats" (from who??) :

 "an elected official jesting about the killing of Muslims goes beyond politically incorrect."

Surely US Marines helping to eliminate the "muslim extremists" would be welcome by 'moderate' muslims who are angry these 'extremists' are "hyjacking their religion & killing their people". 

But no - they/she view them as one of her own = muslim............

So which one is it?

Hear the doublespeak?

Sheriff's Muslim jokes draw concerns

Article:

A volunteer for the nonprofit Muslims Against Hunger group is not upset Larimer County Sheriff Jim Alderden plans to hold a Christmas tree-trimming party - an event Alderden proudly calls politically incorrect.

But the woman, a Muslim who lives in Northern Colorado, is concerned about a comment Alderden made while giving a speech at a Marine Corps Ball last month. The sheriff briefly posted a transcript of the speech on his Web site.

In the speech, Alderden joked about bumper stickers and highlighted one which read, "U.S. Marines: Travel agents to Allah."

The speech has been removed from the sheriff's Web site, and he declined to comment about the speech.

9NEWS also asked a dozen former Marines who heard his speech for their thoughts. None of them wanted to be quoted.

The woman, whose name is not being published because she has received threats, said an elected official jesting about the killing of Muslims goes beyond politically incorrect.

"Anytime you put someone down, whether it's for religion or race or anything, it doesn't just hurt the individual, it actually hurts the community where we live, and it's really not time to start doing things like this," she said.

The Muslim-American community contributes much to society, she said, and she also pointed out Muslim-American soldiers have died in the current wars while fighting for the United States.

"We're proud to be in this country," she said.

Cases like that of Nidal Malik Hasan, the man accused of shooting fellow soldiers at Fort Hood, are the exception rather than the rule, she said.

"We can't let our religion be hijacked by extremists," she said.

Muslim Millionaire Pedophiles Buying British Little Girls for Sex

The link between (child) pornography and muslim terrorism has been recently established as has the long time "open secret" of Islamic leaders and holy men encouraging, abeting and partaking of prostitutes.

 The use of prostitutes is legitimatized by the Islamic answer/excuse to pre-marital and extra-marital sex with the situationally convenient sigheh or  "temporary marriage" - which even allows for compensation to be paid to the woman/temporary bride

Tragic but nevertheless fitting that the below news article comes to light at the same time you have muslim hate preacher, Adjem Coudary, on his latest 'hate and venom' road show.  Let's recall this about Choudary & Islam:

 The hypocritcal Anjem Choudary is a prime example of "Do as I say NOT as I do (did)" which included being guilty of anti-Sharia activities as drinking alcohol, using illegal drugs and gambling. He also engaged in viewing pornography and having sex outside marriage but premarital sex falls into an Islamic "grey area' -covered by sigheh.

The blink and your married - have sex - and blink your not married reminds one of  the clicking of heels together like Dorothy's magical ruby slippers in the Wizard of Oz children's story. 

Just like in the fairy tale -maybe that's what the hate spewing Choudary did - he clicked his magic muslim heels together - grew a beard - and turned from "living like an animal" into the epitome of a muslim hate cleric - spouting among many things - the Islamic takeover of the UK and implementation of punitive Sharia Law, death to non burka wearing muslim women AND declaring jihad against the infidels.

So putting the above in perspective and knowing that Choudary is more likely a template for many muslim men - rather than the oddity - the below article, although thoroughly disgusting, is not surprising.

Rich, fat cat muslim paedophiles clearly prefer to not wait for their 72 virgins in heaven but rather purchase them, like the sex slaves these little girls are, on the auction block.

These muslim perverts, offended by all sorts of normal & legal Western customs and behaviours, clearly are not offended by pedophilia and rape.

Looks like they need to find a pair of Choudary's Islamic ruby slippers.

BRITISH virgin girls as young as 12 are being sold to mega-rich Arabs for sex at up to £50,000 a time.

Parents force the schoolgirls into prostitution and then sell them to millionaire paedophiles.

Vice Squad cops nicked three women and a man from Manchester after secretly filming them offering to pimp six girls aged between 14 and 23 at a five-star West London hotel.

They also taped the gang bragging how they were prepared to peddle even younger, prepubescent girls.

The gang - described as being "like something out of TV's Shameless" with most unemployed or on benefits also had links to Newcastle and Liverpool.

A senior insider said: "This is about as sick as it gets.

"These are among the youngest girls we've found being offered for sex.

"This gang was extremely greedy - it was all about the money. Sex with a virgin aged 12 or under cost anything up to £50,000.

"Our inquiries continue and we expect more arrests."

Sex trafficking of children born here is extremely rare. Detectives normally see foreign kids from Eastern Europe, the Far East and Africa bought here to work as sex slaves.

An NSPCC spokesperson said: "Unscrupulous traffickers are controlling and terrorising vulnerable children within the UK, forcing some into the sex industry and abusing and exploiting many others.

When the police and other agencies find these children, they need to provide immediate protection and support to help them overcome their ordeal.

"We urge anyone who fears a child is being exploited to call the police, children's services or the NSPCC."

Meanwhile, the Yard's Clubs and Vice Unit, known as CO14, is expected to take full responsibility for targeting the multi-million pound sex trafficking trade in London.

As well as stopping foreign sex slaves being smuggled into the UK, they will investigate home-grown prostitution rings.

There is likely to be an explosion in sex trafficking in the run-up to the 2012 Olympics.

Last week, several leading charities wrote to Met Commissioner Sir Paul Stephenson urging him not merge the force's stand-alone Human Trafficking Team into the Vice Squad when Home Office funding ends shortly.

But Clubs and Vice are considered more than capable of taking on the big trafficking jobs.

Creeping Sharia = Civitas Finds 85 Sharia Courts Operating in Britain

Is anyone really surprised that the numbers of Sharia Courts - operating in Great Britain - was/is grossly underestimated?

Note the muslim reponse to this report (or any type of criticism) is to use their typical, vociferous accusation of (the Myth of) Islamophobia.

If you think that these courts only deal with "domestic, marital and business disputes" - I have a bridge to sell you in Lake Havasu City, Arizona, USA.

It will be interesting to see if Civitas will actually be able to stop this latest example of the Islamisation of Great Britain ----- I'm not optimistic.


Article in full - emphasis mine: 

 At least 85 sharia courts' operating in Britain, says Civitas report

At least 85 separate sharia "courts" are now openly functioning in Britain, almost 20 times as many as previously believed, a report by Civitas claims.

A study by the thinktank found that scores of unofficial tribunals and councils regularly apply Islamic law to resolve domestic, marital and business disputes, many operating in mosques.

It led to claims of a "creeping" acceptance of sharia principles in British law, but the Muslim Council of Britain dismissed the report as "scaremongering".

The study follows the outcry over remarks by the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, last year that the adoption of aspects of Muslim law in Britain, such as in divorce proceedings, "seems inevitable".

Lord Phillips, who was then the Lord Chief Justice, attracted controversy by saying that there was "no reason why" sharia principles could not form the basis of mediation in disputes.

Some decisions of Islamic tribunals are already considered legally binding and could theoretically be enforced in civil courts in England and Wales.

Other officially recognised bodies can agree to grant Muslim "divorces" as part of a parallel system of religious law in Britain.

"This whole business is creeping up on us without anyone really noticing," said Dr David Green, director of Civitas.

The existence of a network of five court-like sharia bodies in London, Bradford, Birmingham, Coventry and Manchester, expanding to other cities under the umbrella of the Muslim Arbitration Tribual (MAT) has already been widely reported.

But Civitas estimates that the real number of Islamic "courts" operating in Britain is at least 85, as a result of scores of unofficial courts sitting in mosques in which imams make judgments on day-to-day disputes.

It argued that they are unlikely to treat women as equals and could even be against human rights law.

The organisation called for a change in the law to stop the decisions of such bodies being legally enforceable.

The MAT, which deals primarily with disputes between business partners or mosques, says that as a legally constituted arbitration body under the 1996 Arbitration Act, its decisions could be enforced in county courts.

That claim has yet to be challenged in a test case but a similar status for Jewish tribunals is already long established.

Another organisation, the Islamic Sharia Council, has a panel of seven judges based in London, dealing largely with divorce and issuing "fatwas" on issues such as how to bring up children.

Mufti Abdul Kadir Barkatulla, one of its judges, said that the organisation had been operating peacefully alongside the civil courts for 25 years without any major problems.

He also confirmed that dozens of informal sharia bodies sit across the country.

"Every imam, if they are qualified can have a hearings and make decisions according to sharia," he said.

Inayat Bunglawala, of the Muslim Council of Britain, said: "To term them sharia courts is ridiculous, it's just scaremongering."

Qamar Bhatti, a member of the governing body of the MAT, said: "We don't have a court, it's an arbitration, we don't have a judge sitting with a gavel in his hand but that's the image that this report is creating."

MUSLIM CLERIC - ANJEM CHOUDARY - "ISLAMIC ROADSHOW" CONVERSION OF 11 YR OLD BRITISH BOY - ISN'T THIS A "HATE CRIME"?

The below article - aside from making your blood boil - is as clear a case of child abuse of a minor child as I've seen...........and/or a "hate crime".

Let's remember what happened when Christian preachers tried to pass out religious literature on the streets of Manchester - to adults:

"Two Christian preachers were stopped from handing out Bible extracts by police because they were in a Muslim area, it was claimed yesterday.

They say they were told by a Muslim police community support officer that they could not preach there and that attempting to convert Muslims to Christianity was a hate crime." LINK

Yet the predatory Anjem Choudary can brainwash an eleven year old child - on the streets of Birmingham, England - whose parents were not present to protect their child or to given consent to Choudary's forced Islamic conversion. Nor, did any parent give consent to the filming of their son during Choudary's 'Islamic Roadshow'.  For VIDEO go HERE

Where were the "vigilant" British police??  Why is this not considered a "hate crime" as in the incident of the Christian preachers?  I think we all know the answers to those questions.

Choudary needs to be locked up for CHILD ABUSE - or better yet - deported.

Row after Islam cleric converts schoolboy on Birmingham street

Jun 28 2009 by Ben Goldby, Sunday Mercury

A YOUNG schoolboy was “converted” to Islam on the streets of Birmingham by a radical Muslim preacher, the Sunday Mercury can reveal.

The bewildered-looking 11 year-old, who gives his name as Sean, was filmed repeating Arabic chants and swearing allegiance to Allah.

The white schoolboy is prompted throughout by controversial cleric Anjem Choudary, a follower of exiled hate-preacher Omar Bakri Mohammed.

The incident was filmed during a demonstration by Choudary’s Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jama’ah group in Birmingham city centre earlier this month.

Choudary, 42, was one of the masterminds behind sick protests at the homecoming parade of heroic British soldiers in Luton back in March.

He praised protesters who branded British troops “murderers” and later appeared at a press conference flanked by thugs who took part in the demo.

When contacted by the Sunday Mercury, Choudary defended the young boy’s “reversion” to Islam – but admitted his parents were not with him and were not consulted.

“The child was genuinely interested in Islam,” he said.

“The boy told us he wanted to become a Muslim and, of course, some people are intellectually more mature than they are physically.

“I don’t see there is any harm in this.

“He was with his friends, but I didn’t see if his parents were there.

“There were a lot of people at the event.’’

A message on Choudary’s website offers advice for those who become Muslim at his Islamic Roadshow.

“Conversion packs are already provided to those who revert to Islam in the Islamic Roadshows,” it says.

“They include a booklet on ‘Everything a Muslim must know’ and a free DVD with a brief guide on how to pray in Islam.”

Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jama’ah, is a splinter group of the controversial Al-Muhajiroun sect.

Last month we revealed that the sect, founded by exiled Bakri, is planning to reform.

Al-Muhajiroun, which has recruited hundreds of fanatics in the Midlands, fell apart in 2004 just months before Bakri was stopped from coming back to the UK under terror laws.

He has now set his sights set on a return for the extremist group, though the Home Office is understood to be closely monitoring its activities.

The ranting cleric was investigated by Scotland Yard back in 2000 after telling the Sunday Mercury that then Prime Minister Tony Blair was a “legitimate target” for assassination.

Since his exclusion from Britain, right-hand man Anjem Choudary has run Ahlus Sunah wal Jama’ah and the Islam For The UK website.

Choudary was secretly filmed by the Sunday Mercury at a youth centre in Alum Rock, Birmingham, last February, calling for strict Sharia law to be introduced in the city.

The Unholy Muslim Hate Cleric Anjem Choudary "Lived Like an Animal"

Well here you have it  the hypocritcal Anjem Choudary is a prime example of "Do as I say NOT as I do (did)" which included being guilty of anti-Sharia activities as drinking alcohol, using illegal drugs and gambling. He also engaged in viewing pornography and having sex outside marriage but premarital sex falls into an Islamic "grey area' -covered by sigheh.

The link between (child) pornography and muslim terrorism has been recently established as has the long time "open secret" of Islamic leaders and holy men encouraging, abeting and partaking of prostitutes.

 The use of prostitutes is legitimatized by the Islamic answer/excuse to pre-marital and extra-marital sex with the situationally convenient sigheh or  "temporary marriage" - which even allows for compensation to be paid to the woman/temporary bride. 

The blink and your married - have sex - and blink your not married reminds one of  the clicking of heels together like Dorothy's magical ruby slippers in the Wizard of Oz children's story. 

Just like in the fairy tale -maybe that's what the hate spewing Choudary did - he clicked his magic muslim heels together - grew a beard - and turned from "living like an animal" into the epitome of a muslim hate cleric - spouting among many things - the Islamic takeover of the UK and implementation of punitive Sharia Law, death to non burka wearing muslim women AND declaring jihad against the infidels.

Swilling beer, smoking dope and leering at porn the other side of hate preacher "Andy" Choudary

by Neil Sears

The British live 'like animals in a jungle' with their alcohol, gambling, prostitution and pornography.

That is the stated view of Anjem Choudary, the preacher of hate who this week insulted the families of dead soldiers and branded their marching comrades as cowards.

The extremist wants Britain to be brought under Sharia law, with women forced to wear burkas and put to death for adultery.

Yet before he grew his beard and turned to fundamentalism, Choudary, 41, was very much the life and soul of the party at Southampton University.

Big night out: The university law student Anjem Choudary's reading list extended to this soft-porn title

New identity: Choudary, centre, moved to radical Islam soon after qualifying as a solicitor

Photographs obtained by the Mail suggest 'Andy' - as he was then known - should be inflicting on himself the 40 lashes he prescribes for drunkenness.

As well as downing cider and lager, the cleric is shown playing drinking games with cards, clearly forbidden under his strict Islamic laws, and holding a cannabis joint between his lips before smoking it.

And the woman on the cover of the Mayfair pornographic magazine he is looking at is certainly not wearing a burka.

On the evidence of friends from his student days, Choudary had sex with numerous white Christian girls.

Under his version of Sharia law, he should be stoned to death for sex outside marriage.

High time: Choudary with a beer and joint, and right, swigging a cider in one go

One former friend said: 'I can't keep a straight face when I see "fundamentalist Muslim Anjem Choudary" in the papers attacking the British for drinking or having girlfriends.

'When I knew him, he liked to be called Andy, would often smoke cannabis spliffs all day, and was proud of his ability to down a pint of cider in a couple of seconds.

'And he was ruthless with girls. When he briefly worked as an English teacher for foreign students in London, he'd pull one of them every few days, sleep with her, then move on to another.

'If Sharia law was introduced, he would have been whipped and stoned to death many times over.'

Choudary, who was born in South-East London to a market stall-holder of Pakistani descent, has become one of the faces of extremist Islam.

But in his days as a law student, he experimented with LSD, hallucinating and laughing hysterically for more than 20 hours.

After he qualified as a solicitor, however, he swiftly moved into ever more radical Islam.

Former acquaintances said this was possibly because he was angered by his failure to land a well-paid job with a big City law firm.

At a mosque in Woolwich he met notorious firebrand preacher Omar Bakri Mohammed and quickly became his right-hand man.

He also mixed with hook-handed demagogue Abu Hamza, who once called for bomb attacks on British civilian aircraft at a meeting chaired by Choudary.

Choudary, meanwhile, is an ever-more prominent spokesman for radical Islam in Britain - despite the fact that the two groups he ran with Bakri, Al Muhajiroun and Al-Ghurabaa, have been banned.

So he was quick this week to support the radicals who protested against Royal Anglian Regiment soldiers marching in Luton on their return from Iraq.

Outrageously, he called them 'cowards who cannot fight, as their uncanny knack for death by friendly fire illustrates'.

Yesterday, the father-of-three, who lives in East London on benefits from the state he so condemns, returned to the attack.

When it was suggested he was the most reviled man in Britain, he said: 'That's a badge I would wear with pride.'

He added that 'through jihad' - which he insists would be jihad of the word, rather than the sword - he sought 'a pure Islamic state with Sharia law in Britain'.

'Every woman, whether Muslim or non-Muslim, would have to wear a traditional burka,' he said. 'Anyone who becomes intoxicated by alcohol would be given 40 lashes in public, and people who commit adultery would be stoned to death.'

When confronted about his dubious past, Choudary, who is separated from his wife, denied it.

Last night, Bakri, speaking from Lebanon where he fled to four years ago, said: 'I don't believe the rumours against my good friend Mr Choudary are really true.'

Supported by Choudary, the Muslim protesters who demonstrated against the Royal Anglian Regiment on Tuesday defiantly returned to the streets of Luton yesterday, handing out leaflets criticising the 'racist British public'.

Britain's former most senior Muslim police officer, Tarique Ghaffur, called for the demonstrators to be brought to justice.

Tariq Mahmood, of the Islamic Cultural Society, based at Luton's Central Mosque, said the protesters were notorious for causing trouble.

'This small group of people is not representative of the Muslim community,' he said.

Fanatic Ibrahim Moussawi was yesterday finally denied a visa to enter Britain.

Home Secretary Jacqui Smith ruled the Hezbollah spokesman should not be allowed to travel here, despite at least two previous visits to the UK on her watch.

UK Muslims Furious at NOT Getting Special Privileges

The below article describes another example of muslims expecting & demanding preferential treatment when it comes to local or national laws. Swindon UK traffic wardens admittedly have "turned a blind eye" to muslims illegally parking during mosque-time but recently have (gasp) been treating muslims like non-muslims - and ticketing the mosque-goers.

Furious mosque representative, Muhammed Ali, (assumedly not the world famous former boxer) arrogantly proffers that parking "spaces are empty during Islamic prayer time, as residents are at work anyway" - how does he know this?? Clearly a resident can't park in their space if muslims are already occupying it.

Mansoor Khan, secretary of Thanesdown Islamic Assoc., acts like a spoiled child and whines: "“We are getting sick and tired of it. People don’t have time to go to a car park and walk, as they are on their lunch break from work.”  Apparently non-muslims have plenty of time to scout for parking spaces and walk extra distance to their homes, appointments, etc.

Expect that Muhammed and Mansoor will soon be claiming they are victims of  (the Myth of) Islamophobia.

BUT-- nothing like giving prefential parking status to one group ---so muslims can occupy RESIDENT'S parking spaces and spend hours inside the nearby mosques--- whilst the remaining townspeople have to be inconvenienced and/or ante up payment or fines - to get the locals to unite in opposition to muslim preferential treatment. (please read the article's comments section).

 One can speculate that resident's outrage & subsequent complaints regarding muslims illegitimately occupying these parking spaces is behind the new policy of (gasp again) "One rule for all".

 Perhaps we should add ---being treated like non-muslims--- to our ever growing list of 'Things that offend muslims'.

If only the Swindon residents would direct their anger & outrage towards the muslim colonization & Islamisation of their community-- and Britain in general - maybe - just maybe - this is a start......

Worshippers fury over parking tickets

MUSLIMS are appealing for traffic wardens to spare them parking tickets while they pray for an hour on Fridays.

Members of the mosques in Manchester Road and Broad Street want Swindon Council to turn a blind eye to worshippers who park in residents’ spaces.

In the past, there was an unwritten rule that wardens largely ignored illegally parked cars during their sermons.

But in recent months, traffic wardens have been ticketing without restraint.

Coun Derique Montaut (Lab, Central): “At one stage traffic wardens took a softly softly approach.

“But we are now saying everyone should be treated the same. There should be no privileges.”

Mansoor Khan, secretary of the Thamesdown Islamic Association, said: “The parking situation is atrocious.

“We are getting sick and tired of it. People don’t have time to go to a car park and walk, as they are on their lunch break from work.”

Muhammad Ali, a representative of the Marat Shahjalal mosque in Manchester Road, said spaces are empty during Islamic prayer time, as residents are at work anyway.

“A lot of prayer goers are getting tickets every week,” he said.

“It is causing unnecessary arguments. I don’t think it is too much to ask for us to be allowed to park in empty resident parking spaces for one hour.

“People should be facilitated for religious purposes.”

Since the parking attendants started cracking down about three months ago, Mr Ali describes the mood as disheartened.

“We are just looking for harmony,” he said.

He added that he felt the Muslim community was often blamed for illegal parking outside the Mirchi Cash and Carry in Manchester Road, but he puts it down to shoppers.

Coun Junab Ali (Lab, Central) is trying to find a solution to the problem, which may involve securing spaces in a car park nearby.

But any suggestions would need to be agreed by Broadgreen residents, he added.

“At the end of the day we live in one community and we want better inclusion and cohesion,” he said.

“There is one rule for everybody. The law is for all of us.”

Reconstructive Surgery for Female Genital Castration - on the increase

There has been a huge increase in the numbers of women in France seeking plastic surgery.  These women are not looking for face lifts, liposuction or breast enhancement - they are looking to have their sexual organs reconstructed after having been circumcized in primarily Islamic countries. Unfortunately, this also indicates that female genital castration is still occurring. One suspects that this surge in genital reconstructive surgery is also found in other western nations with high immigration from Islamic countries.

"In recent years around 2,800 women who immigrated to France from Africa or second generation immigrants, of the age group between 18 and 50, have turned to hospitals and centres in Paris and Nantes funded by national welfare to have their genitals reconstructed, devastated by the practice of female genital mutilation (FGM)."  LINK

Female genital mutilation involves removing part or all of the clitoris, the surrounding labia (the outer part of the vagina) and sometimes the sewing up of the vagina, leaving only a small opening for urine and menstrual blood. This is done usually without any anesthetic.  "FGM can be performed as early as infancy and as late as age thirty. However, most commonly, girls experience FGM between four and twelve years of age."

For a graphic explanation of types of female genital mutilation - FGM - go to HERE - but realize that the article is explicit. 

For a list of countries where FGM is prevalent go  HERE - but these countries are not the only places that are dealing with the horrific consequences of FGM. With immigration comes the barbaric practice of FGM - thus at least 21,000 young girls are at risk in muslim-rich England and Wales. Norway is also facing an increase in mutilated young women. One woman who dared to expose Islamic connection to FGM in Norway, Kadra, was attacked and nearly killed by 8 Somalian men.  It stands to reason that FGM is happening throughout the Western world brought into our countries with rampant immigration along with the much heralded multiculturalism and  "globalization" ideologies.

Islamic countries may not be the only ones that practice FGM but the mutilation there is prevalent:

"In the Arabian peninsula, Types I and II FGM is usually performed, often referred to as Sunna circumcision especially among Afro-Arabs (ethnic groups of African descent are more likely to prefer infibulation). The practice occurs particularly in northern Saudi Arabia, southern Jordan, and northern Iraq^{[citation needed]}. In the Iraqi village of Hasira, a recent study found that 60 percent of the women and girls reported having undergone FGM^{[citation needed]}. Before the study, there had been no solid proof of the prevalence of the practice. There is also circumstantial evidence to suggest that FGM is practiced in Syria, western Iran, and southern Turkey.^[32] In Oman, a few communities still practice FGM; however, experts believe that the number of such cases is small and declining annually."  LINK

For another excellent article on the role of Islam go to:

Women Under Islam: Female Genital Mutilation by Adrian Morgan

Clearly any non delusional, normal man or woman would find the entire practice of FGM despicable and mind boggling horrific. Laws have and are being written against this forced disfigurement - but not necessarily followed. Clearly FGN is nothing that we would choose to import into our Western countries. So leave it to the loopey New York Times to present the argument, posed by the "third wave of multicultural feminists" (interesting enough from pro-FGM countries) in FAVOR of the genital castration - all in the name of multicultural tolerance and accpetance - coming to the conclusion that:

" ‘First World’ feminist issues and political correctness and activism have triumphed over the critical assessment of evidence...... She has lamented that her Westernized “feminist sisters insist on denying us this critical aspect of becoming a woman in accordance with our unique and powerful cultural heritage.” .....Should outsiders be telling African women what initiation practices are acceptable? "

Well - that's the first time I've heard the "political correctness" argument used in favor of mutilating women! Funny how the author caveats the article with the statement that she wouldn't choose it for her daughter - yet remains open minded. Really?! then why the inconsistency? How about for herself?

So is that where our anything-goes multiculturalists heading? - the same people who are quick to denouce and agree that  christmas customs and piggy banks are offensive to muslims and must stop - are now praising the practice of castrating women? Apparently as long a someone declares that an act is done based on "their culture or heritage"- particularly if it's muslim -  it's acceptable? Are the rights of women and children being slaughtered on the altar of multiculturalism?

One feminist (guess she must be from the first or second "wave" of feminists- see above) disagrees with the multicultural dhimmi-ridden blather and correctly places the blame on Islam.

"The greatest threat to peace, progress and pleasure since Hitler, Islamist extremists seek to overturn every gain the suffragettes strived and suffered so courageously for, and for this reason as much as any they must be resisted everywhere from Manhattan to Mumbai with every shred of strength we have. The evil hand of extremism is attempting to turn back the clock on women’s rights all around the world.

Think of the 11 Afghan schoolgirls and four teachers who had acid sprayed in their faces by the Taliban last month for the outrageous crime of believing in female education. And closer to home, look at the disgraceful case of London-based Dr Humayra Abedin, the 33-year-old trainee GP who was kidnapped by her family in August and held prisoner in Bangladesh.

They are trying to force the beaten and sedated woman into an Islamic marriage to a man she does not know.

It is a terrifying echo of the imprisonment and torture of the suffragettes all those years ago. These are crimes against feminism AND crimes against humanity."

As Islam and multicultural dhimmitude infect our Western societies the rights and safety of women and girls are increasingly in jeopardy. It is up to all of us - men and women - to insure that the abomination of female genital mutilation is never considered acceptable in our countries.

CHRISTIANS SUE WEST MIDLANDS POLICE FOR BEING CALLED "HATE CRIMERS"

I can't tell you what news article has lately made me feel better than reading this one - all I can say is "IT IS ABOUT TIME"!!

About time that Christians started to stand up for THEIR human rights and THEIR religion. The same religion that has been foremost in the British Isles for centuries.  How dare Christians be made to feel like they are committing a "hate crime" for discussing their religion. Meanwhile the Channel 4 Undercover Mosques continue to spout hate, violence and death all with the government, civic leaders, etc covering their ears, closing their eyes and covering their mouths - just like the pandering monkeys they are:

It is these dhimmi fools who gave the sense of neighborhood exclusivity that encouraged the muslim Community Support Officer, Naeem Naguthney, from making his ludicrous statements and threatsto these Christian preachers. (The previous link also discusses some interesting points about Officer Naguthney background)

Let's hope that this lawsuit is a warning to bullying muslims that Christians are FED UP and are prepared to STAND UP for their Faith AND they are not going to take muslim's religious intimidation anymore!!!!

Court action over ‘hate crime’ row

A HIGH Court law suit will be filed against West Midlands Police within weeks to set out claims that it breached the human rights of two Christian street preachers who were told to halt their religious mission in a Birmingham street.

Solicitors are drawing up papers which will see the force answer allegations that Arthur Cunningham and Joseph Abraham were threatened with arrest if they continued to hand out extracts from the Bible in Alum Rock.

After being told they were committing a “hate crime” the pair were warned that they would be beaten up if they returned to the predominately Muslim area.

The preachers, who both come from America but are based in Birmingham, were interrupted by a police community support officer as they passed leaflets to Asian youths.

February’s incident sparked anger among Christian campaigners and 65-year-old Mr Abraham said he feared parts of the country were becoming no-go zones for anybody who wanted to preach the gospel.

Solicitor Tom Ellis, from Manchester-based firm Aughton Ainsworth, said the papers would outline claims that two sections of the Human Rights Act – the freedom of religion and the freedom of expression – had been breached by the officer.

Unless police chiefs made a dramatic U-turn and issued an apology, the papers would be filed by next month.

“We will be issuing court proceedings in September unless there is an acknowledgement by the police that there was a breach of human rights,” said Mr Ellis.

“That would be enough to stop us filing the papers which are being prepared but we have not had a substantive reply to a letter we sent to the force in May.

“This is not about money, but the principle and I am confident that we will win on behalf of Mr Cunningham and Mr Abraham.”

Mr Ellis said it would be up to the court to resolve factual disputes about differing versions of the incident.

The legal proceedings are being funded by the Christian Institute, a charity which claims to be the guardian of human rights for all Christians.

Mr Abraham said he would not comment because legal action was pending and Mr Cunningham, aged 48, is currently out of the country.

A spokesman for West Midlands Police said: “The professional standards department of West Midlands Police is continuing a thorough investigation into this complaint and as such it would be inappropriate to comment further at this stage.”

THE WEST IS TARNISHING THE PEACEFUL MUSLIM IMAGE

The cause of Islamic violence is solved - and it has nothing to do with muslims, the Quran or Islam according to JAMAAT-e-Islami Secretary General Syed Munawar Hassan. In fact Mr. Hassan says that it is the WEST'S fault that the peaceful image of Islam has been "tarnished".  I have added many links to "back up" Mr Hassan's statements.

Mr Hassan futher stated that Islam has always stayed away from causing the bloodshed of innocent people - particularly women and children. That reason stands alone as to why so many convert to Islam. He then proceeds to indite the Western nations, primarily the United States of America ( & Israel), for violence and civilian deaths in past wars.

As the complaining and accusations continue, Mr. Hassan states that the West is trying to divide muslims into a caste like system. (Apparently he's forgotton the well established muslim caste system)He states that although many mosques are built that the West then prevents these muslims from living their religion - with those muslims who do persist in living their muslim religion in their everyday lives are branded terrorists.

Clearly the cause of muslim violence really has NOTHING to do with muslims or the Quran. Mr. Hassan wants us to believe that muslims are as innocent and peaceful as for example.......Buddhist monks. The same peaceful monks that in the late 10th century were invaded by muslims- "(Muslims) destroyed the Buddhist monasteries and either executed or drove out the Buddhist monks, there was no-one left to take up the religion. From 1192 to the present day, Buddhism ceased to be an organized religion in India." (LINK) (Even the modern day buddhist monks are a victim of the 'religion of peace'.)

Well maybe buddhists weren't such a "good" example...... for much better examples of the West tarnishing the image of the Religion of Peace go to HERE

THE WEST TARNISHING THE PEACEFUL IMAGE OF ISLAM

JAMAAT-e-Islami Secretary General Syed Munawar Hassan has criticised the West for what he called ‘deliberate tarnishing of the peaceful image of Islam.’

The real terrorists are Washington, Tel Aviv and Delhi who usurped Muslims’ land and now they are out to maim them with their lethal chemical and biological weaponry besides calling them terrorists, he said while addressing a training workshop of party cadre of Vehari district at Mansoorah on Saturday.

Referring to the history of Muslim warriors, he said Muslims refrained from unnecessary bloodshed because Islam strictly prohibits harming non combatant citizens, women and children. Such positive attitude caused massive conversions to Islam, he said. While on the other hand millions of people were killed in the World Wars I and II, Munawar said adding that the US killed millions of people in Japan by testing nuclear bombs on innocent civilians, besides massacring millions of Muslims in Iraq and Afghanistan after 9/11. This brutality mocked the US claims of searching the WMDs as they themselves used much more deadly weapons to kill Muslim civilians and destroy basic infrastructure in Iraq and Afghanistan, he said. He said there was western plan to divide Muslims on the basis of caste, colour and language. He said Western societies were willing to give places in their respective countries to build mosques and Islamic centres but they were not willing to allow the Muslims to practise Islam in everyday lives. He said those Muslims who wanted to practice Islamic teachings, economy, politics and foreign policy (jihad) were immediately branded as terrorists.

He flayed President Pervez Musharaf for patronising the ‘so-called’ enlightened moderation in the country which he said was introduced to contain the spirit of jihad under various pretexts. The West is presenting the Holy Quran as book of war, therefore, they were acting upon a plan to exclude it from the educational system of Pakistan.

MOSQUE COSTS RUB SALT IN TAXPAYER'S "WOUNDS"

Talk about adding insult to injury!!! After more than 23,000 people signed a petition in opposition to the building of mosque in Dudley, taxpayer now get to pay $200,000 (100,000 pounds) for the hearing & other costs that were needed for the Dudley Council to vote to overturn their original decision to ban the mosque.

Clearly the inspector, who ruled on the matter, doesn't believe in listening to the citizens of Britain but prefers to pander to muslims and build yet another mosquetrosity - he is another example of a dictatorial NuLabour minion who is (purposely) out of touch with the British people (in addition to being a pompous wanker).

There is a small glimmer of hope that the mosque - with its Christianity domineering 65' minaret that will undoubtedly blast the 5 times a day "screech to prayer" - will not be built as there is some question that the building must be completed by year's end - which is extremely unlikely.  But, you can count on groups of whinging muslims shouting "Islamophobia" and "racism" seeking said term be extended and that the city dhimmis will comply.

It is high time for British citizens to vote for politicians who will not only listen to and act upon the wishes of the British people but also - when required -appoint others to do so.  "Democracy be damned" NuLabour is clearly out to decimate the indigenous non-muslim British population and place us/them in a permanent position of submission to Islam. These quislings need to GO!

Mosque inquiry will cost taxpayers £100k

Taxpayers will pick up a £100,000 bill for the planning inquiry which resurrected plans for a Black Country mosque, it has been revealed.

The cost of the four-day hearing will be met by Dudley Council after the Government’s planning inspectorate overturned its decision to reject the £18 million proposal.

The authority was forced to hire security staff to police the summit at the inspector’s request - but will not receive a penny from Whitehall to cover costs.

The decision to allow the appeal for the project in Hall Street, Dudley, was this week announced after the public inquiry in June.

Dudley Council boss David Caunt described the decision as a “sad day” for local democracy saying it ignored the 22,000 people who signed a petition in opposition.

And Councillor Caunt said that the £100,000 bill rubbed salt in the wound.

“I’m very frustrated that a one man government-appointed judge and jury can turn up, listen to the arguments for four days and drive around the borough before coming to the conclusion that he knows better than the locals. The councillor added: “And then we have to pick up the bill for it.

“The security was requested by the inspector himself, but we have to pay,” he went on to say.

The council chief warned the price of the inquiry could even run over the authority’s initial £100,000 estimate because of the tight security measures.

Work on the mosque, featuring a 65-feet minaret, could start before Christmas. However the plans could yet be scuppered by a land-swap deal which states that the building must be “substantially” built by the end of the year.

Dudley Muslim Association now has outline planning permission for the scheme, but still needs to submit a detailed application which the council has up to 13 weeks to determine.

When the site was transferred to the association in 2003 there was a legal agreement that if the project was not “substantially” completed by the end of this year the land would be returned to the council. Muslim leaders have called for an extension to the deadline.

Mushtaq Hussain, secretary of Dudley Muslim Association, said: “We always maintained the condition was subject to us getting planning permission and having a reasonable and realistic time to get the project completed.”
