Tony Blair: Woolwich attack shows there is a problem ‘within Islam’

Telegraph.co.ukBy Peter Dominiczak, Political Correspondent – Monday 03 June 2013

Tony Blair has warned that there is a problem “within Islam” as he described the ideology behind incidents like the Woolwich terror attack as “profound and dangerous”.

Mr Blair, the former prime minister, used a column in the Mail on Sunday to call on the Government to “be honest” and admit that there is a widespread problem with the religion.

In a major intervention following the murder of soldier Lee Rigby, Mr Blair said “the seeds of future fanaticism and terror” were being sown and that children in the UK and abroad must be educated about the place of religion in society.

Mr Blair said: “There is not a problem with Muslims in general. Most in Britain will be horrified at Lee Rigby’s murder.

“But there is a problem within Islam – from the adherents of an ideology that is a strain within Islam. And we have to put it on the table and be honest about it.”

Mr Blair added: “The seeds of future fanaticism and terror, possibly even major conflict, are being sown. We have to help sow seeds of reconciliation and peace. But clearing the ground for peace is not always peaceful.”

RUAP National Campaign Blast a Great Success with Great Media Coverage / SBS World News TV, Radio & National Newspaper Links

Dear friends,

On Day # 1 of the Australian Government’s Official 2013 Campaign for the September 7th Federal Election, after the two major political parties, Rise Up Australia was the most spoken of political party on the media across the nation.

RUAP National Campaign Blast at the Windsor Hotel in the City of Melbourne was a great success on Monday the 5th of August. The place was packed out with Aussie flag waving patriotic Aussies from many nations who call Australia home.

This action packed morning started off with the Australian National Anthem followed by the ‘The Lord’s Prayer’ and a special welcome by one of the traditional owners of the land, an Indigenous Candidate for RUAP.

The event was covered by several media outlets and was broadcast on major TV, Radio and many Newspapers across the country.

Is Our Nation Intolerant of Christianity?

Charisma News – 6/3/2013 – Franklin Graham

Recently I was at a White House meeting with Vice President Joe Biden and had the opportunity to remind him that our main problem in America is that we have taken God out of our society and out of our government. We need God’s Word and His laws now more than ever.

Disobedience to God’s Word and His laws has wreaked havoc across the political, economic, and spiritual landscape of our country. There is scandal after scandal, and yet our nation’s leaders seem even more belligerent toward Christians.

If we hold up God’s standards, we are accused of being intolerant. “Tolerance” is one of today’s hot buttons, but in reality the true and fast-growing “intolerance” is for Christianity—anything that stands for Jesus Christ.

You may have read recently about the IRS apology for targeting conservative groups in 2011–12. I was not surprised to hear this—BGEA was audited last September, and many believe it was because we encouraged voters to take a strong stand on same-sex marriage issues and biblical values. The audit process was complex and time consuming, but as we expected, it ended well. During the process, in fact, the focus that BGEA puts on sound management and financial accountability was acknowledged as excellent.

World Council of Churches attacks Israel to no gain

Dexter Van Zile – 3 June 2013

No matter how much the World Council of Churches dumps on Israel, Christians living in the Middle East are still being attacked.

Late last month, 150 Christian leaders met in Lebanon under the auspices of the World Council of Churches(WCC) to talk about the status of Christians living in the Middle East, where, as most people know, followers of Christ are suffering from terrible acts of oppression at the hands of Muslim extremists.

Some Muslims, particularly in Egypt, have stood in solidarity with their Christian compatriots after these attacks, but for the most part, attacks against Christians continue without much organized opposition from Muslim activists or governments in the Middle East. Egyptian police, for example, have stood by and even assisted in attacks against Christians and their churches.

Sometimes the anti-Christian violence manifests itself as poorly organized (but terrifying) mob attacks against churches and their members. These mob attacks often take place after an imam has incited anti-Christian hostility in his Friday sermon. Other attacks are well-planned jihad bombings perpetrated on Christian holidays (such as Christmas or Easter) that result in deaths of dozens of Christians at once.

Such attacks have a cumulative impact. Archbishop Silvano M. Tomasi, the Vatican’s Permanent Observer to the United Nations, recently announced that more than 100,000 Christians are killed as a result of their faith each year. Tomasi didn’t mention exactly who was responsible for these deaths, but he didn’t have to.

We know who is responsible – radical Muslims intent on sending a very clear and simple message that Christians are not welcome or safe in Muslim countries.

Muslim violence against Christians is not a new phenomenon. It dates back to Islam’s founding according to Raymond Ibrahim, author of Crucified Again: Exposing Islam’s New War on Christians (Regnery, 2013). “Under Muslim rule, from the seventh century to the present, tens if not hundreds of thousands of churches once spread across thousands of miles of formerly Christian lands have been attacked, plundered, ransacked, and destroyed or converted into mosques,” he writes.

RUAP Campaign Meetings in Bendigo, Cranbourne & Hampton, Vic / Channel 9 Win TV & Bendigo Advertiser

Dear friends,

Yet, another great weekend of campaigning across Victoria.

The National President and Lead Senate Candidate for Victoria, Daniel Nalliah of RUAP, spoke at three different meetings in Bendigo, while the #2 Senate Candidate for Victoria, Rosalie Crestani, spoke at a meeting in Cranbourne and the Victorian State President Yvonne Gentle spoke at another meeting in Hampton Victoria.

There was great excitement at the meetings and many who came pledged support to the Party, with more people taking membership.

At the Saturday night meeting in Bendigo, Channel 9 sent their cameraman to cover the whole campaign meeting. The Bendigo Advertiser was also there to cover the meeting.

After the meeting, the Channel 9 Cameraman interestingly stated, “Now you have another vote,” meaning that he was so challenged that he had decided to vote for RUAP.  Isn’t that great!

Daniel Nalliah stated, “We have a great product in Rise Up Australia Party with a fantastic brand name and a great consumer demand. The challenge we face is to get our product out into every Aussie home before the election, so that they can hear about us and vote for us.  Literally,  9 out of 10 people who hear about our Party have stated with great excitement that they will vote for us.”

Why are school children not being taught about the involvement of Muslims in the slave trade?

Protect the Pope ^ | 5/30/2013 | Deacon Nick Donnelly

The Rt Rev Michael Nazir-Al, the Church of England Bishop Emeritus of Rochester, has exposed the latest example of  PC revisionism that seeks to whitewash the history of Islam, in this case school children are not being taught of the involvement of Muslims in the slave trade, with blame solely being placed at the door of the British and Americans.

‘Rt Rev Michael Nazir-Al claims that, in addition to ignoring the current persecution of Christians in the Islamic world, secular Britain brushes aside historical evidence of Muslim aggression.

“If you ignore what really happened to give a lopsided view of history in the interests of political correctness, you can’t blame [young] people if they move to something else that has a less critical view of itself,” he says. Christianity appears so apologetic that students naturally gravitate towards self-confident Islam. Meanwhile, “the Churches’ engagement with the secular world becomes capitulation to it”.

As an example of political correctness in schools, the bishop discusses the way black pupils are taught about slavery.

He says: “If you teach black people from African or the Caribbean that slavery was perpetrated on them [only] by England and the whites in the United States, they are then given a narrative that Islam is the great liberator from slavery – without mentioning that the Arab slave traders were on the east coast of Africa and West Africa before the British and the Americans.

The ‘Muslims-Killed-by-the-West’ Lie

http://www.JewishWorldReview.com|– By Dennis Prager – 29th May 2013

The alleged butcher of the off-duty British soldier, Drummer Lee Rigby, defended his carving up of a living human being by claiming that he was engaging in “an eye for an eye” because the British army is killing Muslims in Afghanistan.

Normally there is no reason to respond to the justifications offered by terrorists and other murderers of the innocent. But in this case it is important to do so because much of the Muslim world resonates to this argument and because much of the world’s left offers this argument.

This is true even though a large majority of Muslims do not support terror and even though leftists do not support it. Nevertheless, throughout the Muslim and leftist worlds it is believed — and our children are taught this at college — that America, the UK. and other countries are targeted by Muslims because we kill Muslims.

The argument is morally perverse and a lie.

First, the U.K. and others are in Afghanistan in order to defend Muslims. Brits and other Westerners are risking their lives, and dying, in that country on behalf of Muslims.

Nearly 1,000 people join 15th annual Rally for Life in Perth, Australia

by Andrew Smith, LifeSiteNews Australian correspondent May 29, 2013

Upwards of 900 people attended Western Australia capital city Perth’s annual Rally For Life this week, meeting on an adjoining lawn before rallying at the steps of parliament house.

The rally is organised by Coalition for Defence of Human Life and has been held every year since the legalisation of abortion in Western Australia in 1998.  This was the 15th anniversary rally.

This year the event started with an adult reading a scripture passage for each year since abortion was legalised in Western Australia, accompanied by a child who was born in that year.  At least one of these children was saved from being possibly aborted, having been helped by a crisis pregnancy centre in Perth.

Rally organiser Richard Egan said that at the rally they collected 590 signatures urging the Western Austrlia parliament “to inquire in to the fourteen reported cases of babies born alive following an abortion procedure – none of whom were resuscitated or given any medical treatment.”

The impact of Islamic Sharia Courts in Britain

Salt Shakers – E- News 18th July 2013

In the UK, Islamic ‘Sharia Councils’ or courts have been established – under legislation which provided for the establishment of Arbitration Tribunals. There are now 85 such sharia courts around the UK which make rulings according to Islamic law.

A BBC documentary, presented by reporter Jane Corbin, recently exposed what happens in some of these Sharia Councils.
Link to the video is below.

Many people have expressed concern about the use of these Sharia Courts – they deal with a range of issues such as marital disputes, domestic violence, divorce and othermatters.
Since the Sharia Councils operate in accordance with Islamic law, the rulings are sometimes not in accordance with British law and they often disadvantage women. They sometimes deal with areas, such as child custody, which are supposed to be dealt with by the regular court system. Those subjected to the rulings often feel they have to obey them, even though they are not legally binding.

There should be ONE law for ALL – not a separatesystem operating on Islamic law. We need to learn from the British experience – and reject any introduction of ‘sharia law’ courts or rulings in Australia.

Baroness Cox, a member of the House of Lords, introduced the Arbitration and Mediation Services (Equality) Bill legislation into the House of Lords in October 2012. The Bill is aimed at curbing the growth of parallel legal systems in the UK. The Bill would limit the power of the Sharia Courts and ensure they operate in accordance with British law, especially in areas such as polygamy, divorce and discrimination against women (source).

Time to re think Islamic terrorism – It’s a war stupid

Irish Central ^ | Ed Farnan – Posted on May 29, 2013

The Boston terror bombing brings home the fact we are in a state of war, even though our government leaders don’t want to acknowledge it.

The attitude by the present administration is eerily similar to what the Clinton administration had, that lead up to the 9/11/2001 terror attacks. Criminalizing terror is in fact ignoring the active war being waged against our country and western society. As if we don’t name it, then it doesn’t really exist.

During the Clinton administration, our world trade center was attacked with a truck bomb and our embassies in Africa were bombed killing hundreds.

Later, in a frank moment, Clinton admitted he screwed up when he had a chance to kill Osama Bin Laden and didn’t take it, because: He had “no controlling legal authority to do so.”

This is lawyer talk, not a commander in chief who is responsible for the safety of American citizens….

In Store Wars, the Empire Strikes Back

Tony Perkins – Washington Update – July 16, 2013

When religious liberty collides with same-sex “marriage,” something has to give. And usually, that “something” is Christians’ rights. In this mad dash to redefine marriage in America, many in society are so focused on giving homosexuals their way that they aren’t stopping to see who gets trampled underfoot. The real victims, who include children, religious business owners, and employees across the country, have been lost in a convenient storyline of inequality and discrimination.

While the media spills oceans of ink on the perceived injustice toward same-sex couples, very few reporters are telling the stories of Christians being hauled into court, before human rights commissions, and even their own employers for subscribing to a view on marriage that — until last year — President Barack Obama shared! In the meantime, wedding vendors from Washington State to New Jersey are trapped in the middle, wondering why their rights are suddenly less important than homosexuals’. When did it become acceptable to sacrifice the freedoms of conscience and free exercise of religion on the same-sex “wedding” altar?
