Afghan Men Wear Burqas to Campaign for Women’s Rights

The Telegraph ^ | March 6, 2015 | Radhika Sanghani

A group of Afghan men marched through the capital Kabul in burqas to campaign for women’s rights.

The men marched on Thursday dressed head-to-toe in bright blue burqas, clothing that covers with female body and has mesh over the face.

The idea was to draw attention to women’s rights by wearing the clothing that has, for many people, come to symbolise the suppression of women.

It took place ahead of International Women’s Day on March 8.

Female TV Host Takes Radical Islamist To School After He Says One Of The Most Sexist Things Possible

Independent Journal Review ^ | 03/08/2015 | Justen Charters

When female TV host Rima Karaki interviewed radical Islamist Hani al-Sibai on the Lebanese Al-Jadeed news channel this week, Karaki showed him that she wasn’t intimidated by his rude remarks.

During their interview, al-Sibai was asked to share his thoughts about the Christians that have joined militias to fight ISIS.

Instead of sticking to the subject, al-Sibai went off on a tangent. Considering the limited time frame al-Sibai had as a guest on the show, Karaki requested that he stopped ranting and ‘focus on the present.’

Such a suggestion from a woman infuriated the radical Islamist. The Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) translated the exchange:

“I will not answer the way you like, because I’m here to serve the idea in which I believe.”

Red Crescent over Hollywood

Religious Freedom Coalition – By Andrew Harrod, PhD. – Mar 4th, 2015 

Hollywood is silent on Islamic extremism being silenced by both money and fear.

“We are primarily in a war of ideas…between freedom and tyranny,” declared attorney and anti-Islamism activist Deborah Weiss on February 24 before an audience of about 20 at Washington, DC’s National Press Club.  Focusing on Hollywood’s media industry as a key “agent for social change” and “information dominance,” Weiss and other panelists examined the dangerous sociopolitical influences of America’s past and present Marxist and Muslim enemies.

Cliff Kincaid, president of event host America’s Survival, Inc., opened the panel by discussing “Hollywood’s anti-American bent,” often under leftist influences.  This had a long tradition, historian Allan Ryskind later explained while discussing “serious Reds” in Hollywood who “were with Stalin in his prime killing years.”  Kincaid elaborated that “America’s media and Hollywood are all for sale.”  The 2012 Red Dawn remake, for example, presented North Koreans, not Chinese, invading America in order not to offend sensibilities in an important Chinese market.

Extremists are setting up anti-British schools, report claims

By , Education Editor – The Telegraph -12 Apr 2015

Nearly 50 unregulated schools set up by extremists are being investigated for being anti-British, it has been claimed.

Education authorities are looking into allegations that these schools impart teachings that go against British values.

Many of these schools were set up by a teacher embroiled in the Trojan Horse scandal that saw radical Muslims infiltrating school governing bodies in Birmingham, it was alleged.

Based around the UK – including Luton, Birmingham, and London, these schools manage to scape prying eyes by operating outside the traditional education system, it was claimed.

Many of the students have been pulled out of the mainstream education system, which is overseen by the schools’ watchdog, Ofsted, and the Department for Education (DfE), and are being home schooled without proper regulation or oversight.

ISIS, Iran Are Agents of ‘Apocalyptic Islam’ Paving Way for ‘Islamic Messiah,’ Says NYT Bestselling Author

By Samuel Smith , Christian Post Reporter – February 26, 2015

Joel Rosenberg speaks at the National Religious Broadcasters’ International Media Conference in Nashville, Tennessee, February 24, 2015.

Speaking in a discussion on Islam at the National Religious Broadcasters’ International Christian Media Convention on Tuesday, New York Times bestselling author and Middle East expert Joel Rosenberg explained that the biggest threat facing the Western world is not the rise of radical Islam, but rather the rise of “apocalyptic Islam.”

In one of four Islam discussions held at the three-day conference in Nashville, Tennessee, Rosenberg, who authored the bestselling book series The Last Jihad, criticized the Obama administration for refusing to acknowledge the threat posed by radical extremist terrorists as a threat from “radical Islam.”

Rosenberg continued by saying that although many people feel that the rise of radical terrorist groups is one of the biggest threats to America and Western nations, a bigger cause for concern in the West should be the rise of two nation-states — Iran and the Islamic State — with leaders promoting an “apocalyptic” brand of Islam focused on the “annihilation” of the United States and Israel.

Dandenong Council calls for Hijab Day without Councillors Approval

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE –  MONDAY 13th APRIL 2015

This is the highest level of stupidity of Multiculturalism when a council calls locals to wear the hijab, a symbol of male dominance and control practiced by Islam for the past 1400 years.

That’s exactly what the Dandenong Council in Victoria is calling all women living in the area to wear the hijab to understand Islam better.

For goodness sake, we don’t want our women to practice this un-Australian way of life.

Today the National President Daniel Nalliah of Rise Up Australia Party was contacted by several councillors from the Dandenong Council who informed him that the Mayor did not let any of the councillors know about the Hijab Day.

One Councillor who contacted him stated, “Tonight we (Councillors) will challenge the Mayor and will call on his resignation at the council meeting at 7pm.”

Mr Nalliah was also privileged to read several email correspondences in-between the Mayor and councillors.

I challenge the Dandenong Council to call on the Muslim women to get rid of their Hijab for one week and assimilate into Australian way of life.

Muslim Persecution of Christians: A 1,400 Year Saga

February 10, 2015 – By Raymond Ibrahim

The one glaring fact concerning the persecution of approximately 100 million Christians around the world today is that the overwhelming majority of it is being committed by Muslims of all races, nationalities, languages, and socio-political circumstances: Muslims from among America’s allies (Saudi Arabia) and from its enemies (Iran); Muslims from economically rich nations (Qatar) and from poor nations (Somalia and Yemen); Muslims from “Islamic republic” nations (Afghanistan) and from “moderate” nations (Malaysia and Indonesia); Muslims from nations rescued by America (Kuwait) and Muslims from nations claiming “grievances” against the U.S. (fill in the blank __).

This fact is underscored in Open Doors’ recent 2015 World Watch List—a report that highlights and ranks the 50 worst nations persecuting Christians.  It finds that “Islamic extremism” is the main source of persecution in 40 of the top 50 countries—that is, 80 percent of the nations where Christians are persecuted are Muslim.  As for the top ten worst countries persecuting Christians, nine of them are Muslim-majority—that is, 90 percent of nations where Christians experience “extreme persecution” are Muslim.

Still, considering that the 2015 World Watch List ranks North Korea—non-Islamic, communist—as the number one worst persecutor of Christians, why belabor the religious identity of Muslims?  Surely Christian persecution is not intrinsic to the Islamic world, but is a product of repressive regimes and other socio-economic factors—as the North Korean example suggests and as many analysts and media maintain?

Egypt Says America Is Playing a ‘Double Game’ In War on Terror

February 24, 2015 – CBN News – Julie Stahl and Chris Mitchell

Egypt is now on the front lines of the battle against ISIS, and some of its leaders are making new accusations about the Obama administration’s war on terror.

They accuse the United States of playing a double game — fighting terrorists abroad while meeting with them at home.

A recent White House meeting between President Barack Obama and Muslim leaders sent shockwaves through the Middle East, specifically in Israel and Egypt. The cause of the uproar: the group included leaders with ties to the Muslim Brotherhood.

“We just don’t understand because we know the history of the Muslim Brothers,” former Israeli Ambassador to Egypt Zvi Mazel told CBN News. “We know exactly who they are. So how come, the United States, the administration — in that case the president himself and the State Department — receive delegation[s] of the Muslim Brothers?”

Of the 14 leaders attending the meetings, at least three represented groups that were founded by or tied to the Muslim Brotherhood.

Empowering jihad: The deadly myth of a ‘root cause’

Reports that “Jihadi John,” the British-accented narrator of ISIS snuff videos, is Mohammed Emwazi — an educated young man from a middle-class background — ought to put the final stake in the pretense that poverty and a lack of education and opportunity fuel Islamist hate.

This mistaken idea seems to be Obama administration policy. Marie Harf, the US Department of State deputy spokesperson, recently said:

“We cannot win this war by killing [jihadists]. We need to go after the root causes that lead people to join these groups, whether it is lack of opportunity for jobs. . . We can work with countries around the world to help improve their governance. We can help them build their economies so they can have job opportunities for these people.”

Of course, the news about “Jihadi John” is only the latest evidence to the contrary. These terrorists are often well-educated and even wealthy. Osama bin Laden certainly was.

Many Islamist terrorists are physicians: Maj. Nidal Hasan (the Fort Hood shooter) and al Qaeda’s current leader, Ayman Al-Zawahiri.

“Lady Al Qaeda” Aafia Siddiqui (the terrorist whom ISIS wanted to trade for James Foley, then for Steven Sotloff) was a scientist.

UK now arresting jihad terror suspects every day; police call for extra funding to cope with Islamic State threat

UK now arresting jihad terror suspects every day; police call for extra funding to cope with Islamic State threatFebruary 9, 2015 – by Robert Spencer

As the situation inexorably spirals out of control in Britain, British officials still appear resolutely determined not to investigate the question of why this view of Islam that they think is a drastic misunderstanding of the Religion of Peace has grown so widespread.

“Terror suspects arrested every day in UK as police call for extra funding to cope with Isil threat,” by Tom Whitehead, the Telegraph, February 8, 2015 (thanks to Block Ness):

Police are now arresting a suspected terrorist every day with ministers poised to boost funding amid fears of attacks from Isil “misfits and criminals”.

Metropolitan assistant commissioner Mark Rowley revealed fanatics were being detained on a daily basis following a sharp rise in arrests because of the growing threat from Islamist jihadists.

Mr Rowley, the country’s most senior counter-terrorism officer, said he had been lobbying Government for additional funding to tackle the threat and there were “indications” that would happen.

Muslim leaders must take a stand

Herald Sun (Melbourne) ^ | 12th February 2015 | Andrew Bolt

TWO more Muslim men were arrested in Sydney yesterday for — police alleged — plotting to kill civilians.

But why have none of the many men arrested so far for alleged terror attacks here planned to kill moderate Muslim clerics?

Australian historian Christopher Clark, in his widely admired Sleepwalkers, points out “one abiding strand in the logic of terrorist movements, namely that reformers and moderates are more to be feared than outright enemies and hardliners”.

Terrorists hate compromisers. Islamists murdered Egyptian president Anwar Sadat for making peace with Israel.

But which Muslim clerics are in danger of being too moderate?

The only threats I’ve heard of were those reportedly sent to a Sydney doctor, Jamal Rifi, who is indeed a brave peacemaker, but no cleric.

The fact, I fear, is that there aren’t Muslim religious leaders here truly trying to reform Islam or issue fatwas damning the likes of Islamic State to hell.
