A cartoonist's own words

Kurt Westergaard, the exploding turban of Mo cartoonist from Jyllandsposten, has made another drawing trying to explain his feelings concerning terrorism and the attempt on his life.

In Kurt Westergaard's own words: "It is me on the right. My head is about to explode of anger concerning the insult to my person. At the same time I am angry about the actions of terror in New York, Madrid and London. I had a special personal relation to New York. I loved to sit in the wonderful bookstore, Borders, in the World Trade Center. To the left I have added the old drawing of Mohammad, because it started it all. The hare symbolizes my own personal courage, which is not that big. It is the part of me, which maybe prefers to get away, and that cannot control everything."

With the recent capture of a group planning to kill him, his forced hiding, his wife's near expulsion from the kinder garden (she was sent away a few days), where she works - I can understand the worry about courage.

I for one think him very brave - the hare should be a tiger - and I applaud and thank him for his fantastic original drawing.

The Vatian and Al-Azhar "university" are in agreement

Al-Azhar "university"

"Both sides vehemently denounce the reprinting of the offensive cartoon and the attack on Islam and its prophet," officials from both religious bodies said in a statement seen by IslamOnline.net.

Concluding a two-day meeting of their joint interfaith committee in Cairo, the two sides also denounced any insult to any religion.

Seventeen Danish newspapers reprinted on Wednesday, February 13, a drawing of a man described as Prophet Muhammad with a ticking bomb in his turban.

The move came following the arrest of two Tunisians and a Dane of Moroccan origin for allegedly plotting to kill the cartoonist who had drew the caricature in 2005.

"We call for the respect of faiths, religious holy books and religious symbols," read the statement.

The two sides urged Muslim and Christian religious leaders, intellectuals and educators to instill such respect in society.

"Freedom of expression should not become a pretext to insult religions and defaming religious sanctities."

The Vatican's position makes no sense to me. It is leading to a complete Dhimmi and roll-over attitude similar to the Head of the Church of England: - The Most Reverend Dhimmi Supreme Arcishop Himself - even though he now tries to retract his earlier statements on his recommendation to introduce Sharia in the UK.

From the blog of Flemming Rose, one of the editors of Jyllandsposten:

Yesterday the Vatican joined the al-Azhar university in Cairo in condemning the republication of Danish cartoonist Kurt Westergaard’s depiction of Muhammed with a bomb in his turban, but the Catholic state and the supreme institution of Islam in the Sunni world didn’t say a word about the foiled plot to kill Westergaard, who has been in hiding since November last year.

And by the way: al-Azhar is a university practicing institutional apartheid. The institution is banned for Jews and Copts, not only the department of theology, but also medicine, economics and agriculture. And speaking about offending religious sensibilities: al-Azhar has shown no willingness to abandon the part of the sharia providing Muslims with the obligation to insult non-Muslims’ religious feelings, while at the same time insisting that non-Muslims offending Muslims’ religious sensibilities should be punished.

I call the Vatican a bunch of Dhimmies. Now is the time to fight back - or do you want Sudanese conditions all over the world?

Mo be praised!

Yes! We righteous believers of Mo have made it. This most horrible of all vile, vile, vile creatures will be banned. No longer will the (capitalist) swines hand out swines to our innocent children.

Remember:

"Pig belong to the forbidden animals, and not allowed to be eaten by the believers. Pig eats almost anything dirty and they are very lazy animals. It is the most avaricious of all domestic animals. Amongst all animals, pig is the cradle of harmful germs. It's meat serves as carrier of diseases to mankind. It is this very reason that made it unfit for human consumption."

The Qur'an states:

"Forbidden to you for (food) are: dead meat, blood and the flesh of the swine and that which hath been invoked the name other than Allah. "

Holy Qur'an 5:4

So fortunately this most unholy and lazy devil's spawn, the most unbelieving of all animals has been banned - even by our enemies.

"Children who open a saving account at Fortis get a present: a roguish piggy-bank, named Knorbert. Throughout the years tens of thousands of kids had received it, but that is now at an end. Knorbert won't be given to kids as a present any more.

A pig is a touchy issue for some of the clients: Jews and Muslims consider it unclean. The bank wrote in an internal document that Knorbert "doesn't fulfill the requirements that the multicultural society places on us any more." the document not to De Telegraaf which published it on the front page. Fortis would have preferred to keep a lower profile on it."

Please notice how we faithful believers of Mo also managed to get the Jews blamed for abandoning the vile, vile, vile swine. Not only have we succeeded in getting rid of IT but we get to blame the Jew unbelievers.

Seen here: Times, and several other places.

Danish support for Ahmadinejad or not...

A Danish group of artists have given their support to Ahmadinejad. They have spent effort to get the following ad into the Tehran Times, a goverment controlled Iranian newspaper in English. It had to pass the censorship.

The ad was published as above.

But try to read the first letter of each statement.




Exactly. Wonderful isn't?! They actually managed to make fun of the Iranian Hitler wanna be at home. This is ridicule of the highest order. And it is giving me some ideas. Hmmh.

I look forward to the upcoming crisis. Denmark is already the second most hated Western country (Israel is #1), so it can't get any worse.

Danish Jews are no longer safe...

The Danish newspaper, Jyllandsposten, the originator of the cartoons, today has an article with this title:

Danish Jews are met with harassment (article in Danish)

It takes time to translate, so let me just summarize:

• Danish Jews feel intimidated and are afraid to show their identity while being in the public
• Jews fear verbal and physical aggressions by Muslims
  
• At the synagogue the guards warn Jews leaving the synagogue to remove head dress and the star of David
• Jews no longer feel safe putting their children in Danish schools because of the Muslim children
  
• A Danish teacher of Jewish ancestry applying for a position was told by the headmaster of a Danish public school it would be better to change his name to something innocuous. He did not take the job

Let me tell you something about the Jews in Denmark. Their families have been in Denmark for generations. Some for hundreds of years. They are as Danish as any Dane. You can not distinguish them by sight or language. The only major distinction may actually by the many accomplishments of Danish Jews. They are a part of Danish culture and I count some as friends.

We are in December, 2006, and Danes have to hide in the streets because of a faith or just a name? Their children cannot attend school paid by the tax payers, paid by the children's parents? They need guards at their places of worship? Danes are persecuted by strangers at home?

This is insane. I have had it with Muslims. I am perfectly aware that only a minority of Muslims are behind the aggressions. But I don't care. I want all Muslims out of Denmark now. And the few Danish converts ought to go as well. Because where are the demonstrations in the street by moderate Muslims against the abominable behavior against Danish Jews? A short time ago, when a newspaper published a few rather bland cartoons, thousands and thousands of Muslims were demonstrating!

Hell, I want all Muslims to go back to their miserable countries of origin and leave the rest of us alone!

Am I getting too radical? A few years ago I would never have issued such a statement. I would have pointed out that the innocent majority of Muslims do not share the guilt of a few misfits.

But just now - I don't care. I would rather see that a large number of innocent Muslims being unfairly treated than I want to see even one Danish child having to fear going to school or walking in the street. Because these Muslims to a large degree do not share Danish culture and values, and thus are not Danes.

The society and the freedom my ancestors fought and worked for is at stake.

I am fed up. And I am not alone.

I am also sad to realize, I now find myself an extremist proposing radical solutions. It is one more thing that I can not forgive.

France withdraws troops from Afghanistan

It is just a question of time before France will pull out entirely from Afghanistan. Now we have the news that several hundred of the best French troops are to withdraw.

France plans to withdraw around 200 special forces from southern Afghanistan at the start of next year following a recent surge in violence, reported the French newspaper Le Journal du Dimanche on Sunday.

The US are withdrawing troops as well, as NATO is supposed to take over more duties. NATO's effort is seriously hindered by national special interests. And the coherency of a NATO force is in question. This is to be seen in light of the increased difficulties in the region. Of course this is the major reason for France to withdraw:

Nine French troops have died fighting in Afghanistan, and Le Journal du Dimanche said the relatively high death toll had played a part in the decision to withdraw the forces.

Or is it? I rather believe this is the reason:

France, however, declined to dispatch more troops last month, saying it already had its hands full with the peacekeeping mission in Lebanon, where it has committed some 2,000 soldiers.

Let me just translate:

France has no problem with the number of troops, its military is big enough and is hardly taxed at all. Smaller countries are relatively speaking participating with larger resources. The peacekeeping mission of France in Lebanon is to assure that Hizbollah can rearm unobstructed. France is more likely getting ready for an armed conflict with the "terrorist Israeli state".

France is at all levels obstructing the war against terror. I say good riddance - what do you need enemies for with an ally like France?

While French special forces are excellent troops, most other French troops are, with some notable exceptions, of questionable quality.

And while the results and the effort in Iraq may be up to discussion, I find it hard to believe anybody can sympathize with the Taliban. It seems the French are trying.

I shall be interested in French girls no more and I shall boycott as many French products as possible. No more French cars for me!

Instead I suggest looking into Aussie girls.

Look at this video again, listen to the song, admire the qualities of this Aussie girl, Beccy Cole, and send a thought to the allied troops who still are in Afghanistan - and even the blameless French special forces - most of all who have made a big and even heroic effort. I and many other people have friends and compatriots there risking their lives every day in the front line against Islamofascism.

Factor M

Officially the war against terror is ending. Of course a large number of countries in the West never did participate - some, such as France, even worked against the effort.

Politicians in most Western countries are either actively working for or are being pressured to enforce a halt to activities in Iraq and consequently Afghanistan.

Meanwhile a number of Middle East countries actively harbor and/or support terrorists. Recently we have read the news of Saudi Arabia, an American ally - no less, permitting its citizens to send financial aid (and perhaps arms) to the Sunni insurgents in Iraq. Iran supports the Shiites and a civil war is probably unavoidable if the Western troops (read Americans) leave. Iran supports terrorists everywhere, Syria many places and even fairly moderate countries like Egypt conveniently turns the blind eye when necessary. All other Middle East countries seem to be in between.

A number of countries have sold or are selling nuclear know how. And all the Arab dictators look forward to having nuclear technology. Not for energy for heating, as it does not get very cold and considering a lack of oil is absurd. No it is of course to get any dictator's wet dream fulfilled: The Bomb.

The Arabs have managed to give the Jews (just like the Nazis did) the blame for all ill in the Middle East or the world even. According to Muslims, the Palestinian problem is solely a "Zionist" one. Actually most don't give a damn about the Palestinians, but it is convenient to hide the real problems at home. Nothing like enemies to excuse dictatorships. Fictitious ones even better.

Most of the Western world buy this excuse and now hate the Jews more than terrorists. In France many Jews have left or are leaving. Were I a French Jew, I would get the hell out. The French government may not be Vichy, but the attitude is similar. And there are no previsions of improvement. On the contrary - France is becoming Muslim.

What is going on? I have e theory. It is an infection. No extreme PC, left-wing appeasement, cowardly defeatism or even stupidity can explain what is happening. The infection is called M for Madness such as in Mass psychosis. It is a Mental decease.

The M infection is growing at a furious rate.

In the UK the war against terror has been abolished officially as it was an affront to Muslims.

In the US "flying imams" are seeking damages for being kicked of the plane after provoking on purpose by "playing terrorists". Perhaps they were more than provoking - they might actually have been probing and preparing the way for real terrorists. A producer revealing the imam's ill intentions was fired for her effort. Now I am just waiting for CAIR to become part of the American government.

In Norway the rate of rape is six times higher than in New York. According to superblogger fjordman at the Brussels Journal there is a direct connection between rape and Muslim immigration. Another study recently compared general crime rates to Muslim immigration in the UK and found a correlation. Furthermore, according to my own calculations many thousand "honor" and religiously related crimes are committed by Muslims against Muslim children and youngsters in the West every year. Mainly against girls. And mainly in the hidden.
The media and politicians in the West refuse to reveal or acknowledge the problems. In France it is even forbidden by law to do so. Thus a rumor that 70% of all prison inmates in France are Muslim is impossible to validate.

I could go on and on on the widening infection of M. The MSM is silent but new proofs of M are documented daily in many fine blogs.

Perhaps it is a secret Islamofascist weapon - a new kind of virus or M ray. You guys out there with tin-foils on your head are maybe not that mad. At least not as mad as people infected by M.

The Islamofascists are succeeding exceedingly well and the West is doomed by factor M.

Religious crime in the West

A while ago I posted this article, "Young Muslim women forced to suicide". It is about a hidden aspect of the so called honor killings. At the time I tried to find some hard numbers to back up the article. I did find some, but now a new article, "20 religious crimes pr. month", in Jyllandsposten, the famous Danish newspaper of the cartoons, brings more light to the matter.

The police has reported (to the ministry) 100 crimes (since June), which are thought to be related to concepts of honor or religious motives. Mysterious suicides must be treated as investigations into killings.

In Denmark, according to the police, every week four crimes are committed which are related to cultural norms and/or religious concepts of honor.

Let’s first get some facts straight. We are not talking about Danish Christian fundamentalist fanatics crucifying gays. Neither are we talking about Buddhists beating up their wives. We are definitely not talking about the nuns of my old Catholic school beating up kids.

Insofar as I know - we are talking only about Muslims. And mostly about families punishing young daughters. In extreme cases by killing them.

These are hard numbers. Four reported crimes per week. Not all reported crimes will turn out to be actual crimes. But not all crimes will have been reported either. Especially will all the disappeared girls not count. Those are girls born and brought up in Denmark, but who one day simply disappear. According to family they stayed on in their parent’s country after a vacation. What happens to them is anybody's guess.

So let us treat the number of four crimes per week as actual crimes. Denmark neither has a particularly large nor small Muslim population compared to other European countries. Neither is crime particularly worse or better than in other countries in Europe. So let us try to extrapolate.

4 crimes per week correspond to 200 crimes per year

Denmark has a population of 5.000.000. In other words 40 crimes per million per year. (Denmark has a population of roughly 5 percent Muslims. So we are talking roughly 1 crime per year per 1000 Muslims)

That is more or less 14.000 crimes per year in all Europe (350.000.000 people).

Considering a world wide Western population of roughly 700.000.000 we may talk 28.000 crimes per year.

In the West.

By people right out of the middle ages.

I am appalled to the point of my blood boiling.

2006 Dishonest Reporter of the Year Award

Check out the sixth annual recognition of the most skewed and biased coverage of the Mideast conflict.

Our Dishonest Reporting awards primarily focus on "fauxtography," the manipulated images, staged photos, and inaccurate captions that repeatedly tainted coverage. Space didn't allow us to elaborate on many other noteworthy incidents of skewed reporting. Visual veracity was issue of 2006.

Our intent is not to make sweeping generalizations about all photojournalists. Most are honest people admirably working under difficult conditions; many risk their lives to record history's first draft. But important questions remain unanswered. What safeguards help editors detect altered images? Where do the rush of deadlines and the speed of technology leave the slower work of fact-checking? What do ethical standards, if any, say about posed shots? Were some photographers simply duped?

The MSM has reached unheard heights of information distortion. It has now reached the point of outright lying and manipulation. News have become propaganda.

I for one enjoy seeing the MSM having trouble because of the Internet. Not only are the MSM caught in their lies, but newspapers and tv-news are no longer the only sources. The MSM is loosing readers/viewers.

And no wonder.

More Arabs want nuclear power

The news this morning are comforting. Check out "Gulf Arabs states want nuclear power" from CNN:

Gulf Arab countries want to acquire nuclear energy capability and have ordered a study on a possible joint atomic program, a statement read on Sunday at the close of a two-day Gulf Cooperation Council summit said.

"The countries of the region have the right to nuclear energy technology for peaceful purposes," said Abdul-Rahman al-Attiya, secretary-general of the Gulf Cooperation Council.

We of course understand entirely. Nuclear power is just so appropiate for net importers of oil. It makes economic sense.

In a few years we can look forward to a much more exiting world.

The War on Terror has ended?

The UK newspaper, The Observer, presents the following:

Cabinet ministers have been told by the Foreign Office to drop the phrase 'war on terror' and other terms seen as liable to anger British Muslims and increase tensions more broadly in the Islamic world.

The shift marks a turning point in British political thinking about the strategy against extremism and underlines the growing gulf between the British and American approaches to the continuing problem of radical Islamic militancy. It comes amid increasingly evident disagreements between President George Bush and Tony Blair over policy in the Middle East.

Article continues
Experts have welcomed the move away from one of the phrases that has most defined the debate on Islamic extremism, but called it 'belated'.

'It's about time,' said Garry Hindle, terrorism expert at the Royal United Services Institute in London. 'Military terminology is completely counter-productive, merely contributing to isolating communities. This is a very positive move.'

A Foreign Office spokesman said the government wanted to 'avoid reinforcing and giving succour to the terrorists' narrative by using language that, taken out of context, could be counter-productive'. The same message has been sent to British diplomats and official spokespeople around the world.

So the war has ended. We must do all not to offend the Muslim world and the Islamofascists. The degree of dhimmitude is astounding. The UK official line now corresponds with the line of El Beep (the BBC) and PC once more rules.

But we may rest assured, that even though the UK rendition will soon be enhanced to "What War on Terror? - no such thing has ever existed", the terrorists will take this as the victory it is.

I have long been surprised the Labour governments relatively harsh line on terror and the participation in Iraq. Obviously it has been owed mostly to one man: Mr. Blair. Now he is on the way out and the socialists (read defeatist apologists) are waiting to take over power.

I wonder when a large part of London becomes a pile of radioactive rubble whether the war will be reinstated or whether it will cause a complete surrender?

Cox and Forkum say more with one picture than...

What does the future look like?

My key motivation for blogging about the Islamist threat is the bleak future I foresee. A number of extremely radical people, not to confuse with humans, are planning and working for the eradication of the people in the West and my culture. My neighbors, friends and even family is at risk. Life, as we know it, is at stake.


The Islamist threat
The radicals are all Muslim. That is not to say that all Muslims are terrorists but practically all terrorists are Muslim.

The percentage of radicals is difficult to ascertain. I believe it is relatively high. In the UK a poll indicate one in ten thought the London Subway bombings were OK. One in ten would probably not actively participate in terrorists act, but I think at least 1% of the one tenth would. This would amount to 1 in 1000. And here we are talking about a group of Muslims who are more westernized than most. If you look at Palestinians on the West Bank the percentage is much higher.

To corroborate the numbers I find the article about MI5 surveillance in the UK valuable.

The head of MI5 informs that they are tracking 1,600 fanatics from 200 al-Qaeda cells. And many more are believed to exist. I have heard there are 3,000,000 Muslims more or less in the UK. One potential terrorist out of each thousand would correspond to 3000. Are we really to believe that the MI5 actually have discovered more than 50% of all potential terrorists? I think not. The real number is probably much higher.

But let us just use the conservative estimate of 1 potential terrorist in each 1000 Muslims and the 1 sympathizer in each 10 Muslims for illustrative purposes.

Out of a total Muslim population of 1,5 billion, one and a half million are either terrorists or are ready to become terrorist - and a whopping 150 million are sympathizers and will to a large degree indirectly give support, i.e. politically and economically.

1,500,000 out of a world wide population of 6 billion may not seem like such a high number. But remember we are talking absolute animals. They would not hesitate one second to kill anybody – even small children. Actually I believe they would not even hesitate to exterminate the entire human race.

People who can do terrorism can do ANYTHING. Beslan was one example.

We have therefore a large number of people who will stop at nothing. They have large financial resources and even political support. They are not all un-intelligent as history has shown. Many terrorists have turned out to be relatively well educated.

The world of today
This fact we must insert into the current factual geo-political situation.

• Many of the terrorists are already in the West living amongst us and large Muslim populations.
• They can easily travel into the West
• There is no allied concerted front against this threat
• A large percentage of the west – maybe a majority in Europe – are either pacifist or defeatist or both and readily co-operate and fraternatize with the enemy
• The USSR has broken down and the WMD technologies and scientist are readily available for a relative small price. Even materials can be had.
• A number of dictator states in the world give or will give refuge and even support to terrorists
• WMD weapons are proliferated. One Muslim country already has nuclear weapons, Pakistan, and their chief scientist has sold the know-how to at least one more country. One Muslim country, Iran, is publicly and actively seeking nuclear weapons.
• Any Muslim country is politically unstable and may suffer coup attempts such as the one in Pakistan recently. Who gets to hold the button of WMD is unpredictable.
• Were it not for the Security Council the UN might as well be Muslim. The UN is thus completely ineffective and might as well not exist.

The frightening possibilities
With enough financial resources the outright sale of a nuclear bomb is not unthinkable. It is thought that corruption in the ex USSR is reaching the equivalent of 50% of the public sector economies. The “sale” of know-how is a fact.

The whereabouts of cold war nuclear scientist, biologists and chemists is not controlled. Furthermore, in the West the most advanced university courses of chemistry, biology and nuclear engineering are readily available for anybody interested and qualified.

Now combine this with the ever increasing technological development. I remember reading about one Australian research group working on a vaccine for a virus. This led to them inadvertently creating an extremely potent virus that killed all mice. The size of the group: 5 scientists!

With time it becomes ever easier and ever more likely that extremely potent weapons will be created. With the resources of a state available there are no limits.


I predict this future scenario
The Islamist terrorists will continue to make attacks. In the next few years we will have at least one major attack in the west and several smaller ones. All with conventional weapons or possibly with primitive low effect WMD.

This will lead to an increase in friction between us and the relatively moderate Muslims living among us. In the west mass internments of Muslims in camps and deportations of Muslims will slowly be established or planned.

Israel will with the more or less clandestine support of the US make pre-emptive strikes against countries like Iran before they manage to produce a nuclear bomb. This will however only delay the fabrication in certain countries and do nothing so ever about countries like Pakistan. Israel can not afford to attack a nuclear power, as it is so small that just one counterstrike could be a catastrophe.

There will be a continued increased radicalization of Muslims and Westerners and more hate against the Jews. In the Muslim world ever more radical states and even more religious craze will appear. Moderate Muslims will have no voice what so ever in the Muslim world.

No sooner than in 5 years and probably no later than within 25 years, in countries like France , civil war like conditions will be constant in metropolitan areas now completely dominated by “youths”. Europeans will simply flee or be expelled and Muslim ghettoes and mini states will be a fact. The police and military forces are themselves infiltrated and the political system as well leading to complete ineffectiveness. At this point Sharia law will be begun to be exercised in the mini states.

Around this time several Muslim states will have WMD and consequently the terrorists will be armed likewise.

Either they will attack one large Western city or several at the same time. I believe the weapon of choice will be nuclear and capable of at least one million casualties.

The cities in most danger are London, New York, Washington and Los Angeles. London seems to me the most probable target.

The answer of the West will be a nuclear attack, perhaps massive, on the Muslim countries. They will answer back but ineffectively unless they at this time already have potent biological weapons. More western cities especially European capitals will feel the attack.

All Muslims in Western countries will be sought interned, expelled or simply exterminated. There will be fighting in the streets and minor civil wars will break out in all western countries with Muslim populations. Major civil war will break out in countries like France. The western world will win. Atrocities will be committed by both sides.

Finally the Muslim world will be disarmed and completely isolated.

By then millions will be dead. Many of them innocents.


What do you think are probable or possible scenarios for the future?
Do you think I am far out? I sure hope I am. But it looks bleak.

I would like to propose that we infidel bloggers start thinking about possible scenarios for the future and present them. Maybe we can thus raise the awareness and possible even avoid worst case.

Can we perhaps generate models with variables that could present possible results. Can we identify some of the many variables and conditions that will lead to some or the other future?

At this point generating, say a computer model, would be a large undertaking. But identifying some of the variables should be easy and thus scenarios much more consolidated and corroborated than my rather simple one should be possible.

Update
WC already has done a scenario in five parts on his blog. It is great writing and a good read. Scary as hell.
World War III: 21 Days in August – Part 1
World War III: 21 Days in August – Part 2
World War III: 21 Days in August – Part 3
World War III: 21 Days in August – Part 4
World War III: 21 Days in August – Part 5

Update 2
Another scenario, this one by, Raymond S. Kraft, and no less scary:
December 7, 2008

Update 3
A number of smaller scenarios on terroris attacks from a classified leaked report developed by the Department of Homeland Security and the Council of Homeland Security:
National Planning Scenarios

I wonder how this was leaked. By now it must be mandatory Al-Qaeda reading.

Iran to be 'fully nuclear soon'

Good news from CNN:

TEHRAN, Iran (CNN) -- Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Tuesday his country expects its uranium enrichment program to be ready by February to meet Iran's nuclear fuel needs, the national news service IRNA reported.

"We will commission some 3,000 centrifuges by this year end. We are determined to master fuel cycle, and commission some 60,000 centrifuges to meet our demands," the president said at a news conference closed to foreign reporters.

"Today the Iranian nation possesses the full nuclear fuel cycle and time is completely running in our favor in terms of diplomacy."

Ahmadinejad said Iran hopes to celebrate its nuclear success during the "Ten-Day Dawn" festivities at the beginning of February, which mark the country's victory in the Islamic Revolution, the Islamic Republic News Agency reported.

"This year's Ten-Day Dawn period will mark the Iranian nation's success in mastering fuel cycle as well as its achievements in other fields," the president said.

And a bit later in the article, what seems like a thinly veiled threat:

"I will soon send a message to the American people. The message is in the stage of preparation."

I just got a few comments to that. Is it not just swell with a supplier of unlimited nuclear materials in the Middle East? Al-Qaeda et al are already dancing their dances of victory.

Hopefully somebody decides that 10 days of dawn party is to be followed by one permanent sunset. They want fully nuclear? Then by all means - let them have it.

Yet another proposed UN resolution against Israel

I am unsurprised by yet another Arab backed UN resolution against Israel. Here from the Independent.

The United States last night vetoed a UN Security Council resolution condemning Israel in the wake of the artillery attack which killed 18 Palestinian civilians last week in the northern Gaza town of Beit Hanoun.

Of course France and Russia backed it (do they share leadership?) and the US vetoed it:

Britain abstained, France and Russia voted in favour, but America refused to allow the United Nations to condemn the Israelis after Wednesday's mistaken rocket strike on Beit Hanoun, which killed 19 civilians.

I just love the Independent's title for the article:

US vetoes 'biased' UN resolution attacking Israel's Gaza bloodbath

It implies that not only is the vetoed UN resolution not biased but it is also a bloodbath. It is a terribly sad story - true. But why are Palestinian terror attacks never called bloodbaths? And often not even terrorism.

And of course it was biased. Where are the UN resolutions against Palestinian terrorism? Or other Islamist crimes?

Let us look at this article, I have translated it from a Danish newspaper, "Weekendavisen". It was written by Jesper D. Jensen og Klaus Wivel.

“The moral compass of the UN has been broken for decades. The world organisation does not mirror an objective standard for international justice. 'It mirrors the total sum of the political interests of the member states at a given time.’ [Dore Gold, ex. Israeli UN ambassador]

While there has been particularly horrible infringements of human rights in Tibet, Cambodia, Rwanda and other places without any mentionable UN protests, Israel has been condemned again and again by the world organisation. Israel continues year by year to ignore practically all UN resolutions that commonly conclude that Israel is breaking international law, ruthlessly has suppressed the Palestinians and is a threat against both the regional and global stability.

During the 59. Assembly of the UN 2004-2005, 19 Israel critical resolutions were passed, while not a single was passed condemning the ethnical cleansings and mass murders in Darfur in Islamic Sudan. Israel is without comparison the country that through the history of the General Assembly has received most condemnations.

For the past last years the average has been 20 resolutions, and since the creation of the UN the General Assembly has condemned Israel with around 500 resolutions - or around half of all resolutions concerning condemnations of a country. These numbers are from official Israeli statistics and the UN UNISPAL database.

The General Assembly started having emergency sessions in 1956, and since then 5 out of 10 have been about Israel. In comparison there were no emergency sessions in connection with the murder of a people in Rwanda, the ethnical cleansings and mass murders in the former Yugoslavia or during the last years of barbarism in Sudan, where hundreds of thousands of people have lost their lives.

The Israeli critical tendency has also manifested itself through the UN Commission on Human Rights in Genève. Over the last 40 years around 30 percent of the commission's resolutions, condemning named countries, have been targeting Israel. In comparison the lack of human rights in the Arabic countries or China has been the object of few resolutions.”

It blows my mind that one little country can receive so much attention in the form of condemnation from the UN. It clearly shows the organisation's Muslim colored viewpoint.

To shred some light and present another view I present this link: Arab-Israeli conflict: Basic facts. Some of the facts:

Of the 175 United Nations Security Council resolutions passed before 1990, 97 were directed against Israel. Of the 690 General Assembly resolutions voted on before 1990, 429 were directed against Israel. The U.N. was silent while 58 Jerusalem synagogues were destroyed by the Jordanians. The U.N. was silent while the Jordanians destroyed 58 Jerusalem Synagogues and systematically desecrated the ancient Jewish cemetery on the Mount of Olives. The U.N. was silent while the Jordanians prevented Jews from visiting the Temple Mount and the Western Wall.

This anti-Israel stance of the UN is a natural consequence of its membership structure. 21 members of the UN are Arab countries, and 52 members represent Islamic countries. Since the Arab Israeli conflict is represented as a religious conflict (see article) Israel as the only Jewish state has no chance for a fair hearing in the UN.

Let us celebrate

I am angry and have been for some time because of the on march of Islamofascism. I fear for the future of the world and Europe especially. Here in Europe the biggest threat is not even the Islamists but the leftwing appeasing defeatist apologists and at times it sure looks bleak.

But today we have a small victory and a cause for celebration.

In Jyllandsposten, the Danish newspaper that started the Khartoon rage, I this morning read about this (link to article in Danish):

One of the infamous traveling Imams, shaykh Raed Hlayhel, living in Denmark has decided to go back to where he belongs: Tripoli, Lebanon. He was one of the foremost Imams spreading lies about Denmark not only showing the cartoons around in the Middle East but also a number of pictures/drawings much worse produced for the occasion.

He says "Goodbye Denmark"



I say "Good Riddance" (actually I am joyfully shouting out of the window)

Even better, he states: "I am not coming back". That makes me so sad - not.


According to the shaykh (another title not to revere) he is leaving because the Danish courts have decided that publishing the cartoons was perfectly ok.

Of course the minor detail that his 9 year old son is seriously sick and will not be able to receive treatment in Lebanon, does not move him at all. Inhumanity must be one of the foremost things you learn in the Faculty of Sharia of Medina. I do feel sad for his innocent son. He is another child victim of Islam. I would like to point out that the only reason the Imam has been allowed to stay in Denmark is because of his son's decease.

Incredibly, I read that having studied in Medina makes the Imam one of the best educated in Denmark. The journalist must be confused. An education from the Faculty of Sharia of Medina is no such thing.
