The "Religion of Peace" Is At It Again...

This time, the "religion of peace" has executed (or murdered, for those of you who don't buy into the PC line) a second hostage in Afghanistan.

Who was the hostage, you ask? A South Korean Christian aid worker.

Shim Sung-min was 29.

From Fox.com:

The body was found on the side of the road at daybreak Tuesday in the village of Arizo Kalley in Andar District, about 5 miles west of Ghazni city, said Abdul Rahim Deciwal, the chief administrator in the area.

An Associated Press reporter at the scene said the man appeared to have a gunshot wound to the right temple.

Shim, who had recently left his job to prepare for graduate school, had previously visited the Philippines for five days as a volunteer worker and also had served as an army officer.

His father, Shim Jin-pyo, told reporters earlier Tuesday that he wondered how the Taliban "could perpetrate this horrible thing."

"I think they act like they are not human beings," he said.

The Al-Jazeera television network, meanwhile, showed shaky footage of what it said were several South Korean hostages. It did not say how it obtained the video. The authenticity of the video could not immediately be verified.

Some seven female hostages, heads veiled in accordance with the Islamic law enforced by the Taliban, were seen crouching in the dark, eyes closed or staring at the ground, expressionless.

The hostages did not speak as they were filmed by the hand-held camera.

What a brave bunch of Muslim "freedom fighters," huh?

South Korea is starting to bend to pressure from the Islamists in order to free their hostages... And the Taliban reportedly has 21 more to go through.

I say that Karzai dispatches an armed force to kill the terrorists at any cost. Certainly, I don't want the hostages killed, but let's face it: That is going to happen any way if the Taliban gets their way.

"If the Kabul government does not release the Taliban prisoners, then we will kill after 12 o'clock — we are going to kill the Korean hostages," Ahmadi said. "It might be a man or a woman ... It might be one. It might be two, four. It might be all of them."

I say we beat them to their deadline. If the Islamists that take hostages knew that the tactic would fail 100% of the time, and they would die, no questions asked, perhaps hostage taking wouldn't be such a popular ploy with these animals.

Sheikhs On A Plane

British Airways must be getting sick of it's former dhimmitude.

From this source:

MILAN (Reuters) - A Qatar sheikh held up a British Airways flight at Milan's Linate airport for nearly three hours after discovering three of his female relatives had been seated next to men they did not know.

When none of the other business class passengers agreed to swap seats, the sheikh, a member of Qatar's ruling family, went to the pilot, who had already started the engine, to complain, an airport official said.

But the pilot ordered him and his traveling companions, the three women, two men, a cook and a servant, off the plane.

The London-bound flight took off nearly three hours behind schedule Thursday evening and around 50 of the 115 passengers missed connecting flights.

KUDOS to that BA pilot for not putting up with that Islamist bullshit! Let's hope that BA stands behind this, and doesn't start capitulating to the uproar of 'discrimination' that are guaranteed to ensue.

If you want your women to be isolated, you should've chartered a private plane, SHEIKH.

Or better yet, you could join the rest of the world in the 21st century, and trust that no one will 'violate' your women just because they're sitting next to them in a seat. Maybe you could excersize a little trust in your women, and quit shuttling them around like chattel.

I say that if you want to live in the dark ages of Islamism, you can travel like this:

Blogger Reflection Award

Rogue at TJ's Anti-Contrarian Blog (Mirror Site) has passed me a Blogger Reflection Award.

Here are the rules:

1. Copy this post (meaning the rules).

2. Reflect on five bloggers and write a least a paragraph about each one.

3. Make sure you link this post so others can read it and the rules.

4. Go leave your chosen bloggers a comment and let them know they’ve been given the award.

5. Put the award icon on your site.

"This award should make you reflect on five bloggers who have been an encouragement, a source of love, impacted you in some way, and have been a Godly example to you. Five Bloggers who when you reflect on them you get a sense of pride and joy . . . of knowing them and being blessed by them.”

Since I can't list the person who started this meme, I'll have to reflect on five others. This is difficult, as there are so many bloggers who I truly enjoy reading. Also, I'm going to try to tag different folks, so I don't keep hitting the same meme 'victims.' ;)

1. Micheal at Oleh Musings.

Michael always keeps me informed on Israeli news, and delivers it with the unique perspective of an American immigrant to that country. He also occasionally peppers the serious with tidbits about his wonderful family.

2. Barry at A Small Dose of Reality.

Barry is a right winger with a penchant for golf and comedy... His site will keep you laughing. That's something we can all use, especially when one must deal with politics or Muslims.

3. Florian at Florian's Insensitivity Training.

Florian delivers a no-holds-barred blog on whatever is hacking him off at the moment, and will not tolerate the political correctness that has a strangle hold on our country.

4. Edge at Edge's Conservative Movies.

Edge helps me watch movies that won't drive me utterly insane with leftarded, feel-good "messages"... Just good, conservative leaning movies, as the title to his site might suggest!

And last but not least:

5. Eyes at Eyes.

Eyes always has a either a thoughtful post, or a stunning picture of space or nature. She's a breath of fresh air I always enjoy visiting, and she's got an awfully cute doggie avatar, which we occasionally get a story about.

There we go...

Clocked Out.

I'll be out and about for several days, so things will be light here, and I'll have to play catch-up with the blogs I frequent.

Until then, adieu!

Kitty Reaper

Here's a cat after Nanc's heart... ;) The KITTY REAPER, who can accurately predict the death of nursing home patients.

I wonder if any of them are a little fearful of the feline?

PROVIDENCE, R.I. - Oscar the cat seems to have an uncanny knack for predicting when nursing home patients are going to die, by curling up next to them during their final hours.

His accuracy, observed in 25 cases, has led the staff to call family members once he has chosen someone. It usually means they have less than four hours to live.

“He doesn’t make too many mistakes. He seems to understand when patients are about to die,” said Dr. David Dosa in an interview. He describes the phenomenon in a poignant essay in Thursday’s issue of the New England Journal of Medicine.

“Many family members take some solace from it. They appreciate the companionship that the cat provides for their dying loved one,” said Dosa, a geriatrician and assistant professor of medicine at Brown University.

The 2-year-old feline was adopted as a kitten and grew up in a third-floor dementia unit at the Steere House Nursing and Rehabilitation Center. The facility treats people with Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s disease and other illnesses.

After about six months, the staff noticed Oscar would make his own rounds, just like the doctors and nurses. He’d sniff and observe patients, then sit beside people who would wind up dying in a few hours.
Aloof and businesslike feline
Dosa said Oscar seems to take his work seriously and is generally aloof. “This is not a cat that’s friendly to people,” he said.

Oscar is better at predicting death than the people who work there, said Dr. Joan Teno of Brown University, who treats patients at the nursing home and is an expert on care for the terminally ill.

She was convinced of Oscar’s talent when he made his 13th correct call. While observing one patient, Teno said she noticed the woman wasn’t eating, was breathing with difficulty and that her legs had a bluish tinge, signs that often mean death is near.

Oscar wouldn’t stay inside the room though, so Teno thought his streak was broken. Instead, it turned out the doctor’s prediction was roughly 10 hours too early. Sure enough, during the patient’s final two hours, nurses told Teno that Oscar joined the woman at her bedside.

Furry harbinger of death
Doctors say most of the people who get a visit from the sweet-faced, gray-and-white cat are so ill they probably don’t know he’s there, so patients aren’t aware he’s a harbinger of death. Most families are grateful for the advanced warning, although one wanted Oscar out of the room while a family member died. When Oscar is put outside, he paces and meows his displeasure.

Hey-Hey-Hey, GOODBYE!

Goodbye, Ward Churchill, you hypocrite-liar-scumbag-bastard!

But, wait; there's more:

Churchill vowed to sue after the 8-1 vote was announced, saying: "New game, new game."

What do you all figure the odds are on his "new game" being run by the ACLU?

It's Coming...

Think you've got free speech? If this trend comes south, you'd better think twice, as attached to the latest Defense Spending bill:

A website featuring comments by, for and about "principled conservatism" is being investigated by the Canadian government, and could be fined or ordered shut down for some postings about Islam and homosexuality.

Connie Wilkins, who with Mark Fournier runs Canada's Free Dominion site and posts articles, comments and blogs on a wide range of issues, said she just was notified by the nation's Human Rights Commission about the investigation.

The Human Rights Commission is appointed to investigate complaints that "hate speech" or other illegal activity has been detected, and issue rulings or recommendations to the national Human Rights Tribunal, which has yet to find any defendant innocent in such a case.
As WND has reported, that legislative plan has been moving forward in Congress, with U.S. Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., recently adding his version to a pending defense spending bill.

Supporters say it would address only crimes, but opponents fear the actual results would be similar to Canada's, where a printer was fined several years ago for refusing a pro-homosexual printing contract that he said violated his traditional Christian beliefs.

Or, as in the current case, comments about homosexuality or Islam could be classified as illegal.

Read the whole article here; it is truly disturbing.

Another Couple Of Cartoons

An Open Mind

A Comedy Of Errors

The Arab League is visiting Israel, with the preposterous offer that, should they give up and evacuate all land conquered in the 1967 war, the Arabs will fully recognize them as a nation.

There's just a couple little problems with that statement:

The UN already recognizes Israel as a legitimate nation, and the war in 1967 wasn't started by those bloodthirsty JOOOOS, it was started by the ARABS, who were pissed that the JOOOOS were given land and recognized as a nation!

A little taqiyya, anyone?

If Olmert were even half a man, he would kick those filthy Arab League bums out on their butts and demand an apology for even suggesting something so absurd, and apology for past atrocities against Jewish people (the Grand Mufti and his complicity with the Nazi Holocaust comes to mind), and a cessation of all violence against Jews in the present.

But knowing Olmert, I'd say we'll just have to hold our breath and see if Olmert actually does consider this farcical meeting seriously.

Perhaps they should all watch this:

Secret Squirrel?

Is Iran under attack by espionage-minded rodentia?

From this source:

You can tell that Iran is feeling a little beleaguered these days when there are reports that Tehran may be under attack from rodents!

That is what the official Islamic Republic News Agency reported this week, that police had, ahem, "arrested" 14 squirrels on charges of espionage.

The rodents were found near the Iranian border, allegedly equipped with eavesdropping devices, according to IRNA.

When asked to confirm the story, Esmaeel Ahmadi Moghadam, the national police chief, said, "I have heard about it, but I do not have precise information." He declined to give any more details.

IRNA said that the squirrels were discovered by intelligence services – but were captured by police officers several weeks ago.

'Are you serious?'
The reaction to the report on Tehran’s streets was varied – from disbelief to assigning guilt for the alleged infraction.

"No, I had not heard about this, but it does not surprise me, foreign countries are always meddling in Iran," said Hassan Mohmmadi, a fast-food vendor.

Mohammadi asked me if I knew where the squirrels were from, and I told him that I didn’t know. Then he came to his own conclusions. "I bet they were British squirrels, they are the most cunning," he replied.

Meantime, an independent journalist, Sepher Sopli, was not surprised by the idea that another country would spy on Iran, so much as he was dumbfounded by their methods.

"I read this story in the papers and though it was very bizarre; what struck me as odd was that in this age of modern technology, people were relying on squirrels to do their spying," Sopli said.

But, the report was still strange enough to surprise. "That's very funny, but you’re not serious are you?" said Soraya Jafari, a student in Tehran.

**Psst**

I think Ahmadinejad might be cracking up...

It's Coming.
