Leftist UK author advocates Sharia in the West

by Chris Merritt  – The Australian, May 21, 2002

Useful idiocy and self-delusion. Leftist/Islamic Supremacist Alliance Update: “UK author James Fergusson advocates sharia law in West,”

AFTER championing the cause of the Taliban, British author James Fergusson has found another cause: the need for Western legal systems to incorporate at least some of the principles of sharia.

“Properly and correctly applied, sharia has the potential to be extremely humane and flexible in a way that the common law does not,” he said.

That’s why Sharia states like Saudi Arabia and Iran are so notoriously humane and flexible.

Fergusson was speaking in Sydney, where he was promoting his most recent book, Taliban, at the Sydney Writers Festival.

He believes sharia, like the Taliban, is misunderstood.

Yes, of course. The Taliban didn’t mean to burn down all those girls’ schools. They were just trying to fix the central heating.

China’s House Churches Begin to Roar

Chinese believersby Rachel Sparkman : May 10, 2011 : China Aid

In an historic move, Chinese house church leaders petition legislature to guarantee freedom of religion.

EDITOR’S NOTE: For dozens of years the world has witnessed the miraculous growth of the underground and house church movement throughout China in the face of grave persecution. Now house church leaders have gained an even stronger boldness as they petition their communist government. For Christians; these are our brothers and sisters-in-the-Lord, let’s remember to be supporting them in prayer. Just maybe we’ll see Chinese governmental leaders’ hearts be softened, not by might, nor by power, but by God’s Spirit. –Aimee Herd, BCN.

(Beijing, China)—In a historic move, clergy from dozens of mainland Chinese house churches are petitioning China’s legislature to guarantee freedom of religion and to peacefully resolve the recent church-state conflict involving one of the largest house churches in the capital, ChinaAid learned on Sunday.

This is the first such move in 60 years of Communist rule of China and represents a further emboldening of the house church movement, which for decades was active only in the countryside, meeting in small groups in private homes and careful to maintain a low profile to avoid attracting government attention to the illegal gatherings.

Middle East Intelligence Report on Israel from Dr Michael Evans

American President Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu26-05-2011 – Dr. Michael Evans  – Jerusalem Prayer Team

I’ve been in Washington D.C. for the past few days to give you an inside “behind the scenes” look at what’s going on and to tell you the truth no one else will. What the media is telling you is incomplete and often completely misleading. A declaration of Palestinian statehood would not be merely a symbolic act at the UN. Israeli defense minister Ehud Barak warned his compatriots that a pro-Palestinian, diplomatic tsunami was about to crest. Presently the Palestinians have observer status at the UN, as do the Vatican and the EU. The desire to be a sovereign member is not a pipe dream.

Last year President Obama declared that he hoped the Palestinian state could be admitted to the United Nations by the time world leaders gathered in September in New York City for the annual General Assembly session. A request for membership requires a two-thirds majority to be approved. Today that would mean 128 votes from 192 member states. Presently 112 countries have recognized a sovereign Palestinian state with acceptance to come from more in the next few months provoked by Prime Minister Netanyahu’s response to President Obama’s bold declaration.

The president knows that he could push it through the Security Council, or if the U.S. abstained, it would be passed. President Obama was quite clever when he met with Mr. Netanyahu when he said, “Symbolic actions to isolate Israel at the United Nations in September won’t create an independent state.” In terms of UN membership, he is correct. Chapter two, article 4 of the UN Charter says, “The admission of any such state to membership in the United Nations will be affected by a decision of the General Assembly upon the recommendation of the Security Council.”

PM Netanyahu Addresses Congress—It Was Amazing

Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu25-05-2011 – Dr. Michael Evans – Jerusalem Prayer Team

The highlight of my trip to Washington to defend Israel as your Ambassador was this morning as I watched my friend of thirty years, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, address a special joint session of Congress. It was a powerful and amazing speech, and it effectively laid out the case for America to stand with Israel in opposition to the UN plan to unilaterally declare a Palestinian state. I urge you to take the time to watch the full speech linking below. Near the beginning of his remarks, the Prime Minister said:

Israel has no better friend than America. And America has no better friend than Israel. We stand together to defend democracy. We stand together to advance peace. We stand together to fight terrorism. Congratulations America, Congratulations, Mr. President. You got bin Laden. Good riddance!

In an unstable Middle East, Israel is the one anchor of stability. In a region of shifting alliances, Israel is America’s unwavering ally. Israel has always been pro-American. Israel will always be pro-American.

We must stand with Israel. It is the right thing to do politically, militarily, economically and most importantly—prophetically. We cannot allow the leaders of America to direct our course so that we turn our backs on the Chosen People now.

Justice Served in an American-Islamic Honor Killing

20 year-old American-Iraqi Noor Almaleki killed by her fatherPosted by Phyllis Chesler on Apr 15th, 2011 and filed under Daily Mailer, FrontPage.

Arizona Judge Roland Steinle has just sentenced Faleh Almaleki to 34½ years in prison. According to live reporting from the courtroom, the judge noted that Almaleki showed no remorse after the murder, that he did not forgive his daughter, that he did what suited his own purpose.

The judge also said this was the hardest case he had to face in his six years on the bench. He found no mitigating factors and sentenced Almaleki to 34 and 1/2 years: 15 years for the aggravated assault of Khalaf, 3 and 1/2 years for leaving the scene of an accident, and 16 years for the second-degree murder of his daughter. He was facing a maximum total of 46 years.

Thus, today we have witnessed Iraqi-American Faleh Almaleki being sentenced in Phoenix, Arizona for having honor murdered his 20-year-old daughter Noor and for having attempted to murder Amal Khalaf, the woman who was trying to protect her. In October of 2009, he followed the daughter, whom he had tormented all her life, to a shopping mall, lurked outside, then boldly ran over her precious, lovely body with a two-ton Cherokee jeep.

Cleric: Jihad coming to ‘heart of America

Anjem ChoudaryMay 02, 2011 – © 2011 WorldNetDaily

Al-Qaida revenge attacks to have ‘devastating effect’

The death of Osama bin Laden will bring a “new era of jihad,” predicted British extremist cleric Anjem Choudary.

Warning there are motivated jihadists “in the heart of America,” Choudary said al-Qaida will likely carry out revenge operations with “meticulous accuracy” and “devastating affect” comparable to that of the 9/11 attacks.

Choudary is the founder and former chief of two Islamic groups disbanded by the British authorities under anti-terror legislation.

Speaking today in an interview with “Aaron Klein Investigative Radio” of New York’s WABC Radio, Choudary said that while bin Laden was a “lion of Islam … there are many lions waiting to take his place.”

“I do believe that the death of Sheikh Osama will bring in a new era of jihad,” Choudary told Klein.

Australia Gets It Right on Sharia Implementation – Mark Durie Blog

Spread of IslamDear family & friends in Christ,

I am sure you are well aware of the news over the last week that the Islamic Federation of Australia has requested the Federal Government to implement Islamic Sharia law in Australia. What is most interesting is the fact that this organization is supposed to be representing the voice of moderate mainstream Muslims in Australia.

Following is a very good article written by Rev Mark Durie (Anglican Minister) who was one of the expert witnesses in the court case between the Islamic Council of Victoria and CTFM from 2002 to 2007.

Australia Gets It Right on Sharia Implementation – by Rev Mark Durie

Tuesday, May 17, 2011

The Australian Government is holding a national inquiry into multiculturalism.  The Australian newspaper yesterday reported that the Australian Federation of Islamic Councils has requested the introduction of Sharia law under the umbrella of multiculuralism (the AFIC submission can be downloaded here: other submissions are available here).  However, Australian Attorney-General, Robert McClelland has stated that:

“Sharia law has no place in the Australian legal system.”

“As our citizenship pledge makes clear, coming to Australia means obeying Australian laws and upholding Australian values.”

Terror: Preachers like Abu Hamza helped spread the hated in London - and little was done to stop itBy Melanie Phillips – 27th April 2011

So now we are all finally able to see just why Britain’s capital came to be known contemptuously as ‘Londonistan’.

Some five years ago, I wrote a book by that name which laid out the extent to which Britain had become the global hub of Islamic terrorism outside the Muslim world itself.

So bad was this phenomenon that the French secret service, which had tried in vain to alert Britain to the dangers, dubbed it ‘Londonistan’ in a sarcastic reference to the flow into London of Muslim extremists who had been radicalised in Afghanistan.

Worse still, I wrote, the British political, legal and security establishments were still refusing to get to grips with the threat posed to Britain by militant Muslims who wanted to conquer it for Islam.

Call for Millions of Muslims to invade Jerusalem, Israel on 15th May 2011

Pray for the Peace of JerusalemDear friends and family in Christ in Australia and around the World,
 
We’re forwarding the following email we received from Curt Landry of One New Man United
with a 2 minute Youtube video link regarding a Call for Millions of Muslims to invade Jerusalem, Israel on 15th May 2011. 
 
Please pray as never before for Jerusalem (Psalm 122:6), because if this truly happens, we will see a major war breakout in Israel very soon.

Dear Elijah List Readers:

In late March, 2011, a battle cry was released in the Middle East as the Palestinian Authority recreated a Third Intifada page, which had previously been banned by Facebook. This page was calling for the destruction of the State of Israel and encouraging the gathering of millions to invade Israel’s borders on May 15, 2011. Once the page was removed from Facebook, additional pages with the same call to action have been posted. Since their creation, these Facebook pages have gathered hundreds of thousands of “Likes,” with similar pages gathering over 3,000,000 votes of support.

Was Osama a true Muslim or a radical Islamic extremist? / By Pr Daniel

Osama Bin LadenPastor DanielDear family and friends in Christ,

There has been much news in the media all over the world in the last few days regarding the death of Osama bin Laden.

This man who was driven by a very evil agenda and who managed to terribly change the world in some 10 years through violence and fear, has successfully put Islam on the global scene.

So, was he a radical Islamic extremist or was he a true Muslim who followed the Quran?? Click the following link to read a document and make up your mind as to whether this man followed the Quran or not??

https://reformationharvestfire.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/we-must-care-for-australia.pdf

A true believer of any faith is a person who follows the fundamental doctrines of the faith, generally called a ‘fundamentalist’.

The question then needs to be asked, are there good Muslims? The answer is YES, of course.  However, they are not necessarily true Muslims according to Mohammed and the Quran.  Many Muslims have not read, nor follow the whole Quran, and prefer living a peaceful life.

Malaysian gov’t backtracks somewhat on restrictions on Bibles

An update on this story. Apparently the official word is that there will be “no further conditions” placed on the importation or local production of Bibles in Sabah and Sarawak, two provinces with major Christian populations. Outside of those two provinces, the language required on the covers of Bibles that said things to the effect of “Only for Christians” has been softened to “Christian Publication,” though the intent is still obvious.

Have we heard the last of this? Almost certainly not, for as long as this story has dragged on. This report does not mention the matter of the use of the word “Allah” for “God,” which has always been a prime sticking point. There will likely be fine print, loopholes with which to revisit the “Allah” issue, and selective implementation. And that doesn’t take into account the potential response of Malaysia’s Islamic supremacists (when they’re not busy blaming their wives for not having sex with them).

It remains to be seen whether the government will keep its word and stand up to pressure from Muslims whose paranoia — in their supposed show of strength — gives the appearance they are afraid their faith cannot sustain itself in the face of free access to the Bible. “Kuala Lumpur authorizes importation and printing of the Bible in any language,” from Asia News, April 9:

35,000 Bibles to Be Released by Malaysian Gov’t

By Wesley Ernst | Christian Post Correspondent

The Malaysian government has agreed to release all 35,000 Bibles it seized after Christian leaders demanded the books’ release.

In a statement made Tuesday, the Prime Minister’s department said it was releasing the Bibles as a commitment to resolving “any interfaith issues,” which has deeply divided Malaysia’s religious groups.

Since this past week, the national government was slammed by irate Christians for holding 5,000 Bibles in Port Klang since March 2009, and another 30,000 copies at the Port of Kuching in Sarawak state.

Although Bibles are not illegal in the Muslim-dominant nation, the 35,000 books were seized amidst an ongoing court battle for the use of “Allah” as a translation for the word “God.”

E-News – A Warning of Intimidation – To Come?

Salt Shakers – 29th April 2011

The battle for Marriage continues here as it does elsewhere in the world – we knew it was going to be tough because too many have already compromised over the issue of homosexual relationships.

The illegitimacy of these unnatural relationships has been compromised by governments, Christians and Christians denominations across the world which have allowed the unnatural to be called natural despite all the evidence to the contrary.
 
In the last week, in the USA, the battle took another turn for the worst – President Obama has given so much ground that he will now NOT support an Act of Parliament which was passed by the overwhelming vote of both houses of Congress and was signed into law by President Bill Clinton in 1996 – DOMA – the Defence of Marriage Act.
 
The NEW Republican dominated House of Representatives in the USA hired a law firm to defend that Act in the Courts. Attached is a one page transcript of what have happened in the last few days – not from an ‘activist’ but from Albert Mohler, President of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary.
