Ground Zero Mosque – Two questions

Am I the only person who thinks this sounds a whole lot like a moderate call to arms? Does that even make sense? The opposition to the Ground Zero mosque isn’t going to go away. I’m not saying that because I’m behind it, but as a simple statement of fact – it won’t. Therefore, the…

Comment of the Day

Saw this on Hot Air. You want to stop “Islamic fascism”? Open up a dialogue with the community. Narutoboy on May 21, 2010 at 12:02 AM The conversation has been going on for a long, long time, and it is evident that you haven’t engaged in the most important part of meaningful discussion. They have…

Student Admits Support for Mass Murder of Jews

Hat Tip. Transcript. MSA member: Good evening, I just wanted to say thank you for coming to campus tonight and presenting your point of view, its always important to have to sets of, ah, views going on at the same time. Um, very useful.  My name is Jumanah Imad Albahri and I’m a student here…

The Swiss Ban on Minarets

Interesting to see some of the local response to the ban in Switzerland. DPF: This is simply a horrendous decision. Freedom of religion is a fundamental human right, and should not be at the whim of referenda. No Right Turn. This is an outright attack on freedom of religion, specifically the freedom of Muslims to…

Confirming What Your Opponent Says

Seems like there’s been a few examples of this recently. Geert Wilders, who is head of the Freedom Party, flew into Heathrow airport this morning after winning a court battle to enter the country. Mr Wilders had been due to host a press conference on College Green, opposite the Palace of Westminster, at noon. However,…

Not a good look

This does not seem like the way to prove you’re a non-violent religion. Skirmishes broke out between police and Muslim youths in North London last night as large crowds gathered to defend a mosque that had been targeted by anti-Islam campaigners. Groups of youths, in ski masks and motorcycle helmets, threw bottles and set off…

The lies about Israel never let up do they?

Israel is the “Neighborhood Bully”, and must be abused at any opportunity for the evil things they do. In recent weeks, both the NBC Nightly News and ABC’s World News with Charles Gibson repeated charges that Israeli troops had witnessed the deliberate killing of Palestinian civilians by fellow troops during the Gaza War. In recent…

Jenin

Many still believe that Israel conducted a massacre in Jenin in 2002. It was interesting to read in Wikipedia today just how thoroughly that myth has been debunked. (I guess the “may have been civilians” doubt may be because 21 terrorists dropped their guns when they were shot!) As part of the operation, which involved…

Funny Terrorists

Just watching a BBC (i think) report from Gaza on TV3. They interviewed a Hamas terrorist, who did a very passable impression of Ali G. I don’t think he got the joke of calling his opponents cowards while wearing a mask, or calling Israel’s leaders violent while hugging his gun. Someone should put/find that on…

It’s all Rakon’s fault

Apparently, our own Rakon is complicit in killing Palestinian civilians. Rakon Limited is a New Zealand electronics firm. Specialising in crystal oscillators, its makes critical components for GPS systems. Unfortunately, those systems, and the components Rakon produces, are also used in the guidance packages for the precision-guided weapons Israel has been throwing around in Gaza.…
