Latest Offerings From the "Religion of Peace"

From the ROP website:

And a more stories of humanity and peace that Islam provides:

Sharia banking doesn't work. (Not from an American news source.)

Woman's "Inner self seriously hurt" after being disallowed to wear a hijab to a job interview. (Also not from an American news source.)

Muslim man attacks judge with a meat cleaver. (Again, not covered in American media. Starting to notice a theme?)

"Peace flotilla" Muslims want to throw Jews into the sea. (Are we surprised? Again, not American MSM.)

Muslims use Facebook to target Christians. (Not sure where this source hails from... But I'm willing to bet it ain't the American MSM...)

Sharia court gives teenage gang rape victim jail time... Because she incited those 'men', after all. (I'm going to let you guess where this news doesn't come from.)

Five Muslims rob and beat solitary Sihk shopkeeper to death. (Again, not your friendly neighborhood American MSM reporting in...)

British Muslims challenge ban on pro-terror Imam. (Our final story, and we've a perfect record for NO American sources. Dhimmitude is disgusting.)

Dhimmitude in UK Prisons Encourage Conversions to Islam

There are three posts up today. I just couldn't decide on one, sorry!

It seems that in the UK, more prisoners are converting to Islam because Muslim prisoners have it better. It seems some people are more equal than others.

From this source:

Inmates are converting to Islam in order to gain perks and the protection of powerful Muslim gangs, the Chief Inspector of Prisons warns today.

Dame Anne Owers says that some convicted criminals are taking up the religion in jail to receive benefits only available to practising Muslims.

-------------snip--------------

All prisons offer a halal menu, which some inmates see as better than the usual choices. Muslims are excused from work and education while attending Friday prayers. Some converts, who are known as “convenience Muslims”, admitted that they had changed faith because they got more time out of the cells to go to Friday prayers. One quoted in the report said: “Food good too, initially this is what converted me.”

In some of the most secure jails, the size of the Muslim population is well above average. Two years ago, Muslim inmates accounted for a third of prisoners in Whitemoor, Cambridgeshire, and a quarter of inmates in Long Lartin in Worcestershire.

The report says that inmates converted after learning about Islam from other inmates or their family, to obtain support and protection in a group with a powerful identity and for material advantages. One inmate quoted in the report said: “I’ve got loads of close brothers here. They share with you, we look out for each other.”

Isn't this just foul?

Biden Backs Israel?

Did I wake up today in an alternate reality this morning?

Despite proof that the Gaza 'aide' flotilla was little more than a flimsy cover for smuggling weapons to Jew-hating and murderous terrorists, leftists are inanely whining about those poor, poor souls on the gun boat.

Well, at least some leftists are. Amazingly, we have common sense coming from Joe Biden.

From this source:


And so I mean again, look, you can argue whether Israel should have dropped people onto that ship or not ... but the truth of the matter is, Israel has a right to know — they're at war with Hamas — has a right to know whether or not arms are being smuggled in. And up to now, Charlie, what's happened? They've said, "Here you go. You're in the Mediterranean. This ship — if you divert slightly north you can unload it and we'll get the stuff into Gaza." So what's the big deal here? What's the big deal of insisting it go straight to Gaza? Well, it's legitimate for Israel to say, "I don't know what's on that ship. These guys are dropping eight — 3,000 rockets on my people." Now, the one thing we have to do is not forget the plight of these Palestinians there, not Hamas, the — they're in bad shape. So we have put as much pressure and as much cajoling on Israel as we can to allow them to get building materials in, glass ...


I'll bet this is one of those times that Biden says something and then Obama calls him to tell him to shut the hell up. Pro-Israeli talk coming out of the White House? That's got to burn Barry's biscuits.

The Cartoonifada Rages On

Mo' Toonist Lars Vilks was attacked by a devout Muslim during a presentation:

Conspiracy?

Get out your tin foil and let me know if you have any thoughts on this.

From this site: 

A grim report circulating in the Kremlin today written by Russia’s Northern Fleet is reporting that the United States has ordered a complete media blackout over North Korea’s torpedoing of the giant Deepwater Horizon oil platform owned by the World’s largest offshore drilling contractorTransocean that was built and financed by South Korea’s Hyundai Heavy Industries Co. Ltd., that has caused great loss of life, untold billions in economic damage to the South Korean economy, and an environmental catastrophe to the United States.

Iran Now an Authority on Women's Rights...

...Which must mean that they have the right to be beaten, the right to be stoned to death or hanged from a crane, the right to be raped, the right to be denied an education, the right to not be allowed out of the house, the right to be forced to wear a damned potato sack, the right to be told their hair and bodies hold supernatural powers over men, the right to JUST DAYS AGO have law passed that will have any woman who is "too tan" arrested....

And the list goes on. 

Please see Chuck's post on this story, in which IRAN has been elected to the U.N.'s Commission of the Status of Women, part of the human rights body.

Pardon me, but un-fucking-believable. And where are the so-called women's rights groups? HELLO???

Oh, that's right. You're out shilling for the left, rather than doing SOMETHING for girls like Neda: 

It seems, though, that some women are starting to wake up and call their 'feminist' counterparts to the carpet. 


From this source:


CAIR has already been successful in getting the Pentagon to disinvite Graham from a similar event , criticizing him for comments he had made about the religion's violent teachings -- among them, the religion's tenets concerning women.


Wendy Wright, president of Concerned Women for America (CWA), is shocked at how Islam treats women. "Concerned Women for America has been vocal in denouncing the appalling way that Muslims treat women, and we're sorry that the feminists are not willing to join us in denouncing radical Islam," she comments.

"Hillary Clinton has a responsibility, not only as a leader of the feminist movement, but [also] as the secretary of state of the United States, to speak out against forces that are damaging and destructive to the United States. And she has the ability -- because she is our main ambassador to other countries -- to defend the dignity of women," Wright adds.


As an aside, we see what the ROP is up to elsewhere. In Denmark, the KFC website was hacked and this video was 
posted. Quite the stark contrast to what we know of Islam, isn't it?


Finally, we have the groveler-in-chief bowing to Muslim comic book characters. I. Kid. You. Not.


*sigh*

Islamic Outrage Du Jour:

Islam seems to enjoy continually coming up with outlandish cases of inhumanity. Although I could likely go on and on citing such examples, I have decided to throw just a few up that illustrate the cruelty, repression and ridiculousness of the so-called 'religion of peace.'

First we have a twelve-year-old girl winning a divorce from her 80-year-old 'husband.' Yes, your eyes are functioning properly and you did read that right.

Likely this divorce happened only because the case managed to catch international attention, otherwise this little girl would be bringing her 'spouse' his little blue pill so he can piously follow the example of the Pedophile Mohammad:

A 12-year-old Saudi Arabian girl has won a divorce from her 80-year-old husband in a landmark case that may see the minimum age of marriage raised in the country for the first time.

The girl, who has not been named, was married to her father's cousin last year in her home town of Buraidah, near Riyadh, Saudi's capital, the Times of London reports.

Her father was paid a $23,000 dowry.

MAY see the minimum age raised?!? WTF?!? 

So let me get this straight... This girl's own father sold her to his ancient cousin for a tidy profit? Yeah. Sucks to be a kid or a female in a Muslim country, huh? 

See this blog and it's NSFW link in a related topic. Please.

Speaking of children having a bad way to go under Islam, we have the brave lions of jihad blowing up children in the name of allah, most merciful: 

WASHINGTON -- Islamic terrorists are always looking for new ways to escape detection and carry out their attacks. One of their latest ideas is using children as suicide bombers.

The growing phenomenon may soon spread beyond the Middle East to the rest of the world.

The Making of a Child Martyr

Strategies in the global war against Islamic terrorism are taking very different roads in 2010. The Obama administration hopes downplaying Islamic extremism may help when dealing with Muslim countries.

Terror groups, however, are taking extremism to new levels by indoctrinating Muslim children in the deadly art of suicide bombing.

"The state-sponsored illegal recruitment and education of innocent Muslim children to become suicide bombers and child soldiers is occurring throughout the Muslim and non-Muslim world," said Brooke Goldstein, founder and director of The Children's Rights Institute, an organization focusing on human rights violations against children.

"In Pakistan, thousands of children are being educated in madrassahs," she said. "In Iraq, handicapped children are being blown up at polling stations. In Afghanistan, the Taliban is paying up to $12,000 per child, donated to them by their own families.

Taliban leaders run training centers where boys as young as 11 years of age learn to be suicide bombers. Some are even younger.

A 6-year-old Afghan boy recruited in 2007 was told that his suicide belt would "explode into flowers."

I guess when you're a six-year-old, 72 virgins in a sky brothel just doesn't have the same appeal... And those retarded or physically imperfect Iraqis just aren't good for anything else, are they ROP'ers? Might as well make them useful for killing infidels and opposing sects.

Next, we have dhimmitude most foul from the U.S. Pentagon:

Pentagon rebuffs critic of Islam

The U.S. Army on Thursday withdrew an invitation to a Christian evangelist to speak at a Pentagon prayer service next month following an outcry over his references to Islam as a violent religion.

Franklin Graham, the son of famed evangelist Billy Graham, said in a statement he regretted the army's decision and would keep praying for U.S. troops.

The invitation prompted a harsh reaction, including from a prominent U.S. Muslim group that said Graham's appearance before Pentagon personnel would send the wrong message as the United States fights wars in Muslim countries.

In an interview last year with CNN, Graham said "true Islam" was too violent to be practised in the United States.

"You can't beat your wife. You cannot murder your children if you think they've committed adultery or something like that, which they do practise in these other countries," he said. "I don't agree with the teachings of Islam and I find it to be a very violent religion."

Notice the biased nature of the story's title.

Mr. Graham is absolutely correct. In a Western society you can't do any of the things that the Koran, Hadith and so-called Muslim scholars sanctify. That our military, engaged in fighting a deadly enemy is so worried about offending said enemy is deplorable, cowardly and reeks of the lowest weakness. I've said it before and I'll say it again: Dhimmitude is disgusing.

Last but certainly not least, we have a refreshing breath of non-dhimmitude from THE FRENCH. That's right, our Pentagon tucks tail at the merest possibility of perhaps offending a Muslim while THE FRENCH are putting their foot down.

Dear gawd, I've fallen through a wormhole into the Mirror Universe.

From this source: 

PARIS, APRIL 23 - A 31-year-old woman who was driving whilst wearing the niqab, the Islamic veil which covers the whole face except the eyes, was fined 22 euros by the traffic police for "driving in uncomfortable conditions". ù The incident, said the woman, took place at the beginning of month in Nantes, in the west of France. The French woman has been wearing the niqab for nine years and was arrested by the police in a street of Nantes while at the wheel of her car: "two policemen pulled me over," said the woman, saying that she uncovered her face for identification purposes. "At that point, the policeman," continues the report, "told me that he was making a report because of my clothing. I told him that he couldn't, that it was pure and simple discrimination." The policeman said that the woman's field of vision had been limited by the niqab. President Nicolas Sarkozy decided on Wednesday in a Council of Ministers meeting that the government will proceed with a bill for the total ban of the full veil and the burkha in France by May, despite reservations expressed by the Council of State and criticism that the law would appear to be difficult to apply. Meanwhile, daily newspaper Le Parisien has reported that one of the authors of the bill, chief whip of the majority party (UMP), Jean-Francois Copé, has been under escort since January following repeated threats. His closest collaborators say that the threats and the decision to provide him with protection were "more or less linked to the burkha"


That's right. The man has to walk about with a full protection unit because Muslims are willing to murder him over a couple of yards of drab cloth.

And boo-hoo, babe. You want to wear a burqa, do it in your home or go to one of the hellhole Islamist countries where it is acceptable... Say, as a woman, do you think you might suffer any 'discrimination' over there? Just sayin'.

The French are absolutely correct. The burqa and all of it's 'fashion' cousins should be outright illegal. No country which claims to be a civilized nation should validate the institutionalized misogyny of Islam by allowing women to walk about in burlap sacks because they think they are pious or making some kind of statement. The only such statement being made is that they don't mind things like this:

Check out today's Day By Day, because after seeing these pics mocking Islam is mandatory. If only it were more brutal a lashing.

WHISKEY-TANGO-FOXTROT

"Whether we like it or not,"?!?

Obama is actually factually disclosing his intent to dismantle this country's military standing while insulting our allies. Israel knew better than to even bother to show up to this summit, and the President of Georgia is snubbed while Russia and her allies are catered to.

They're laughing up their sleeves in Moscow.

More Insanity From Obama

The Federal government is a hot mess.

After what they've done to the banks, the auto industry and healthcare, they cannot do the one most important thing they were meant to do.

The Sinaloa Cartel is thought to have seized control of Ciudad Juarez by US intelligence, and is being used as the main artery to traffic drugs into the United States through the city of El Paso. With that comes kidnappings, murders, crime, ect.

Federal agents even refer to the cities as the "ground zero" of the ridiculously titled war on drugs.

Any peep from the Obama administration? Any pullout from the Middle East and "redeployment" to that area of the border?

Nah.

Instead, Obama is focusing on dismantling America's nuclear standing. A treaty with Russia to disarm in Prague? REALLY?!?

A 30% reduction in our nuclear arsenal and a reduction in submarines and strategic bombers coupled with the defense budget cuts Obama has already made is insanity! Do we really expect that Russia will live up to their word to disarm as well just because they say they will?

Even worse is the idea that we take the nuclear option off the table for countries that promise not to develop nukes. Sure. Does he really think that any such country wouldn't just attempt to gain nuclear capability under the radar? And what of terrorist sponsoring states? I suppose they can pack as many nail bomb vests as they wish, safe in the knowledge that we will never get to the point of exhaustion with their bullshit and just hit the button, solving the problem once and for all.

And Obama expects that Republicans will just get in line behind this? 

He's probably not far off the mark. Considering the utter spinelessness in the GOP, it wouldn't surprise me one bit.

Speaking of surprise, is anyone surprised that Netanyahu cancelled his trip to the Washington nuclear arms conference? I wouldn't attend such a farce either, were I he. Considering the treatment of Israel by the Obama administration, why come to a table and be listen to my state, the ONLY stable one in the Middle East, be berated for my nuclear weapons program while the Hitler of Iran is given a pass?

Meanwhile, Sarah Palin is calling Obama out on his idiocy. (I know, not a difficult thing.) She has astutely pointed out that no previous president has ever considered such an foolish move.

Obama childishly responded that he would not respond to Palin, saying, "Because last I checked, Sarah Palin's not much of an expert on nuclear issues."


Yeah, sure. And you are, Mr. one-half-of-a-Senate-term-before-running-for-president. Yeah, lots and lots of experience and expertise there. 


Perhaps it isn't Palin's comments that have Obama so rattled. Perhaps it is the thought of this: 

Muslims Import Child Abuse to Canada.

I cannot begin to wrap my head around this kind of dhimmitude.

From this source: 

Federal immigration officials say there’s little they can do to stop “child brides” from being sponsored into Canada by much older husbands who wed them in arranged marriages abroad.

Top immigration officials in Canada and Pakistan say all they can do is reject the sponsorships of husbands trying to bring their child-brides to Canada. The men have to reapply when the bride turns 16.

The marriages are permitted under Sharia Law.

Muslim men, who are Canadian citizens or permanent residents, return to their homeland to wed a “child bride” in an arranged marriage in which a dowry is given to the girl’s parents.

Officials said some of the brides can be 14 years old or younger and many are forced to marry. The practice occurs in a host of countries including Afghanistan, Iran, Pakistan and Lebanon.

In classified documents, Canadian visa officer Steve Bulmer said he refused to allow one Pakistani man to sponsor his 15-year-old bride in August 2009.

"I can find no section (of law) that states the marriage is 'invalid' or 'void,'" Bulmer wrote in e-mails obtained by lawyer Richard Kurland under Access of Information. “I am afraid the age does not invalidate the marriage even if it is illegal to marry.”

Abdul Hameed, of the Canadian embassy in Islamabad, said child marriages are not valid in Canada.

I can tell you how to stop this practice from occurring in Canada:

BAN MUSLIM IMMIGRATION. REVOKE THE CITIZENSHIP OF MUSLIMS THAT MARRY CHILDREN ABROAD (OR IN COUNTRY) AND BAR THEM FROM RE-ENTERING THE COUNTRY.

It's that simple.

Can anyone explain to me how, if it is illegal to marry a child in Canada, they cannot consider a foreign marriage of a child invalid?

And what chance does a sixteen-year-old girl have against an old man, say, 40-50 once her 'husband' re-applies for her to immigrate? Does Canada think she'll simply be able to ask for a divorce once she gets here if the old pedophile rapes and beats her?

Shame on Canada for condoning this abuse.

Pay Your Jizya.

At the same time that the Netherlands are trying to utterly destroy free speech by trying Dutch politician and activist Geert Wilders for "insulting Islam", we have even more dhimmitude at play in Gouda:


GOUDA, 17/02/10 - Gouda local council has given criminal Moroccan teenagers money to stop causing trouble. "We wanted to prevent matters from escalating further," said the council yesterday.
Some dozens of young Moroccans waylaid and robbed passers-by in December. They were 'bought off' by the municipality to keep them off the street around New Year's Eve. They received a combined 2,250 euros, shoved into an envelope, to organise a party, De Telegraaf reported yesterday.
Gouda has confirmed that it paid the troublemakers. "We wanted to prevent maters from escalating further. The youngsters themselves had presented a budget for the party. They had to say how much money they needed for hiring a disc-jockey, a bite to eat and drinks. For us, it was important that it should be quiet in the district around the turn of the year."
According to the council, it had to act quickly. "Although the money was handed over in cash, it was well-spent. Everyone was happy afterwards. We also gave five Moroccans a gift voucher for a book shop afterwards as a thank-you," says a spokeswoman.


That's right, you filthy kuffar. Pay the jizya or we'll raise a little hell.

Notice how the article was careful to say "Moroccan teenagers" instead of MUSLIM teens?

Here's a crazy idea... Instead of "buying off" these punks, how about hunting the little thugs down and throwing them in jail? Or better yet, send their criminal asses back to Morocco?

Rather, they let these gangsters dictate terms and demand money for a little party, and then handed over cash and said it was money well spent?!? And then a reward for not causing trouble after the fact?!?

Are you fucking kidding me?!?

Honestly, the Netherlands should just go ahead and submit itself to Muslim rule and get a proper Islamist name and some Sharia law going. They're less than a hair's width from it, anyway.

So Much for Transparency:

Amazing. Remember the BHO's proud 'undocumented' auntie from Kenya?

(BTW, the pic to the left is of her wearing a dress and pearls given to her by her dear nephew.)

Decision day is this week.

From this source:

The illegal alien aunt of President Obama could learn this week whether she can put down roots in Boston - or start packing her bags for a one-way trip back to Kenya.

And, save for U.S. Immigration Court Judge Leonard I. Shapiro, she’ll know before anyone else. Zeituni Polly Onyango has persuaded Shapiro to bar the public from her removal proceeding Thursday morning at the John F. Kennedy Federal Building, though it’s unclear why.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Reid said removal proceedings are sometimes held behind closed doors in cases of political asylum - such as Onyango is requesting - domestic abuse and security.

“The immigration judge will hear the merits of the case from both parties,” Reid said yesterday. “The judge may make a ruling from the bench, but there’s no guarantee.”

Onyango, she said, can call witnesses if she likes.

Neither Reid nor Rogers claimed any knowledge of Obama meddling on behalf of his late father’s African half-sister, and Rogers said Onyango isn’t trying “to capitalize” on family favortism.

“Everyone knows she’s related to him,” Rogers said. “It’s a no-win situation for him. He can’t get involved in this. The law has got to run its course.”

Onyango, a computer programmer, has been in the country illegally since 2004, when Shapiro ordered her to leave. Recent attempts to reach her at the South Boston housing development where she’s been living since a December 2008 stay of her deportation have been unsuccessful.

I'm sure that NO nepotism will be shown to this shameless criminal whatsoever. Riiiiiight.

High-Tech Islam?

Unbelievable. From this source:

BANGKOK, FEBRUARY 1 - A machine for high-tech ritual ablutions form Muslims to save water. The invention came from a Malaysia based company which promises savings of 80%. With 1.7 billion Muslims in the world, which should pray five times per day including washing their face, arms and legs before kneeling towards Mecca, how much water is wasted in the faucets that are left running? This is the question that the Malaysian company, AACE Technologies, asked. The company has presented a machine designed to assist Muslims in the ritual, allowing them to save on water consumption. "During the pilgrimage of Hajj, 2 million people use 50 million litres of water per day. If they used our machine, they would save 40 million", explained Anthony Gomez, the manager of AACE Technologies. The product, with a height of 165 centimetres and able to use only 1.3 litres per ablution, will be introduced on the market in 6 months time, after a design and development phase that cost 2 years, and an investment of 2.5 million dollars. The emirate of Dubai has reportedly already expressed its interest. The price of the new machine has not yet been fixed. According to indications from the manufacturer, it should run for between 3,000 and 4,000 dollars (2,200-2,900 euros).

Well, I guess 'going green' and conserving some water will make up for all that murdering and killing.

At least it will in the eyes of leftists, anyway.

Terrorism and Global Warming

It seems that Osama bin Laden has reared his head once again to blame the Great Satan. This time, we're wholly responsible for 'global warming.'

From this source:

Al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden has called for the world to boycott American goods and the U.S. dollar, blaming the United States and other industrialized countries for global warming, according to a new audiotape released Friday.

In the tape, broadcast in part on Al-Jazeera television, bin Laden warned of the dangers of climate change and says that the way to stop it is to bring "the wheels of the American economy" to a halt.

He blamed Western industrialized nations for hunger, desertification and floods across the globe, and called for "drastic solutions" to global warming, and "not solutions that partially reduce the effect of climate change."

Bin Laden has mentioned climate change and global warning in past messages, but the latest tape was his first dedicated to the topic. The speech, which included almost no religious rhetoric, could be an attempt by the terror leader to give his message an appeal beyond Islamic militants.

Hello? Leftists, are you getting this?

Have you noticed that OBL's talking points are almost identical to those of the Left?!?

Global warming is a fraud. We all know it; the emails from 'Climategate' prove it, and the continuation of policy and taxation to somehow stop it is nothing more than a get rich scheme for politicians.

Hell, Al Gore's explosion of wealth while he consumes more energy than half the State of Tennessee proves that.

Osama bin Laden knows that the one way to defeat America is to render her as poor and third world as the hellhole he comes from. We've proven to him that he cannot do that with terrorist attacks, so the next logical choice is to get us to destroy our economy and energy capabilities, and idiot leftists will go along happily as long as they can make a buck in the short run.

And while we're mentioning international terrorists, when the hell is the dumbass who is supposed to be in charge of protecting us from them going to be fired?

Janet Napolitano sure as hell made sure to get her face time in front of the camera at the State of the Union address, but earlier that day she couldn't be bothered to do her job.

Top Democrats on the House Homeland Security Committee publicly scolded Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano for failing to show up at a Wednesday hearing where the committee examined the attempted Christmas Day suicide bombing of Northwest Flight 253. One Democrat on the committee said he wanted to know “where the hell” Napolitano was.

That evening, Napolitiano did prominently show up at the Capitol to attend President Barack Obama's State of the Union address. But earlier in the day, she dispatched Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security Jane Holl Lute to testify on her behalf in the Homeland Security Committee on what went wrong in the homeland-security process that allowed would-be suicide-bomber Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab to board a plane bound from Amsterdam to the Detroit.

------------------------------------------------------

Democrats openly expressed their dismay with Napolitano as the hearing proceeded. Rep. Chris Carney (D.-Pa.), chairman of the Subcommittee on Management, Investigations and Oversight, said during his question period: “I am very dismayed that the Secretary herself isn’t here. I mean it’s probably fair to ask: “Where the Hell is Secretary Napolitano?”

Rep. Jane Harman (D.-Calif.), chairman of the Subcommittee on Intelligence, said: "I would like to welcome our witnesses but comment on the absence of Secretary Napolitano. This is the committee with primary jurisdiction over the Department of Homeland Security. She is the secretary of Homeland Security. She is in Washington, D.C. She was invited to testify at this very important hearing, and she should have been here. … I am very personally disappointed that she isn’t here.”

(Read it all here.)

Maybe she was just too embarrassed to show after her moronic "the system worked" comment.

Another Must See:

Outrage Trinity:

Three things are pissing me off today. First and foremost, from this source:

Navy SEALs have secretly captured one of the most wanted terrorists in Iraq — the alleged mastermind of the murder and mutilation of four Blackwater USA security guards in Fallujah in 2004. And three of the SEALs who captured him are now facing criminal charges, sources told FoxNews.com.

The three, all members of the Navy's elite commando unit, have refused non-judicial punishment — called an admiral's mast — and have requested a trial by court-martial.

Ahmed Hashim Abed, whom the military code-named "Objective Amber," told investigators he was punched by his captors — and he had the bloody lip to prove it.

Now, instead of being lauded for bringing to justice a high-value target, three of the SEAL commandos, all enlisted, face assault charges and have retained lawyers.

Matthew McCabe, a Special Operations Petty Officer Second Class (SO-2), is facing three charges: dereliction of performance of duty for willfully failing to safeguard a detainee, making a false official statement, and assault.

Petty Officer Jonathan Keefe, SO-2, is facing charges of dereliction of performance of duty and making a false official statement.

Petty Officer Julio Huertas, SO-1, faces those same charges and an additional charge of impediment of an investigation.

That's it, dammit. We ask these men to put their lives on the line and take out high value enemies alive, Obama's administration wants to discipline and tarnish these men over a fat lip?!?

This asshole Abed deserves to be eaten alive by wild pigs for what he is, and we're worried about him getting a fist?

I'm done. Pull them all out. If we can't treat our military right then bring them home.

Next, almost two years ago I put up this post. Well, it turns out Mexican truckers coming over the border isn't such a good thing after all:

LAREDO, Texas (AP) | A U.S. program that offers trusted trucking companies speedy passage across American borders has begun attracting just the sort of customers who place a premium on avoiding inspections: Mexican drug smugglers.

Most trucks enrolled in the program pause at the border for just 20 seconds before entering the United States. And nine out of 10 of them do so without anyone looking at their cargo.

But among the small fraction of trucks that are inspected, authorities have found multiple loads of contraband, including 8 tons of marijuana seized during one week in April.

Some specialists now question whether the program makes sense at a time when drug traffickers are willing to do almost anything to smuggle their shipments into the United States.

Huh. Who would've guessed that this program would be fraught with corruption?

Lastly, Climategate. Where the feck is the midstream media on this one?

When you read some of those files – including 1079 emails and 72 documents – you realise just why the boffins at CRU might have preferred to keep them confidential. As Andrew Bolt puts it, this scandal could well be “the greatest in modern science”. These alleged emails – supposedly exchanged by some of the most prominent scientists pushing AGW theory – suggest:

Conspiracy, collusion in exaggerating warming data, possibly illegal destruction of embarrassing information, organised resistance to disclosure, manipulation of data, private admissions of flaws in their public claims and much more.

Fraud, extortion, corruption... C'mon, media, there might be a story here!

Islam: Women Under Attack

Where are the feminists? Where are the international human rights groups? When women are routinely brutalized and disfigured in the name of Islam, all we here is silence.

From this source:

We typically think of terrorism as a political act.

But sometimes it’s very personal. It wasn’t a government or a guerrilla insurgency that threw acid on this woman’s face in Pakistan. It was a young man whom she had rejected for marriage. As the United States ponders what to do in Afghanistan — and for that matter, in Pakistan — it is wise to understand both the political and the personal, that the very ignorance and illiteracy and misogyny that create the climate for these acid attacks ca

n and does bleed over into the political realm. Nicholas Kristof, the New York Times op-ed columnist who traveled to Pakistan last year to write about acid attacks, put it this way in an essay at the time: “I’ve been investigating such acid attacks, which are commonly used to terrorize and subjugate women and girls in a swath of Asia from Afghanistan through Cambodia (men are almost never attacked with acid). Because women usually don’t matter in this part of the world, their attackers are rarely prosecuted and acid sales are usually not controlled. It’s a kind of terrorism that becomes accepted as part of the background noise in the region. ...

Saira Liaqat, 26, poses for the camera as she holds a portrait of herself before being burned, at her home in Lahore, Pakistan, Wednesday, July 9, 2008. When she was fifteen, Saira was married to a relative who would later attack her with acid after insistently demanding her to live with him, although the families had agreed she wouldn't join him until she finished school. Saira has undergone plastic surgery 9 times to try to recover from her scars.

Please do read the rest; it is worth it. I have sampled just one picture, but there are many more that graphically illustrate the savagery of Islam.

On Your Mark...

...And GO!

Today is the beginning of the Hajj, an annual event in which Muslims must trample each other running figure eights around a big black cube which contains a rock inside a bedpan.

Oh, and it's fresh and yummy rock, too:

Touching or kissing the Black Stone has a profound impact on the faithful as it is suppose to count in their favor on judgment day. The great Muslim traveler from Valencia, Ibn Jubayr (1145 - 1217) describes the emotion he felt on touching the stone; The stone, when one kisses it, has a softness and freshness which delights the mouth, so much so that he who places his lips upon it wishes never to remove them. It suffices, moreover, that the Prophet said that it is the Right Hand of God on Earth.

Amazing. It's a bit like those folks that see the Virgin Mary in their toast, except Islamists built a palace around theirs.

In any case, I am of the opinion that Mohammad mandated the trip to Mecca as a tourist revenue scheme, making it mandatory for the 'faithful' and reinforcing it by having them pray towards it five times a day.

But now the 'faithful' Muslim has more to worry about than the cost of getting to Mecca... What happens if he gets the swine flu while he's there?

I. Shit. You. Not.

From this source:

For many Muslims it's the journey of a lifetime: making the Hajj pilgrimage. Almost 3 million faithful, together, in the city ofMecca, Saudi Arabia. But this year, the Hajj could become an incubator for the H1N1 virus.

At a Muslim community center in Duluth, Georgia, American Muslims pray and prepare for the Hajj. Lateefa Khan is here with her husband, Zakerullah. She has mixed emotions. They are leaving their children behind but say they look forward to the worship.

"It is very exciting. An amazing experience," Khan says. "I am looking forward to worshipping, focusing all my time on worshipping."

Khan will take precautions to avoid H1N1, also known as swine flu, at the Hajj. They'll carry hand sanitizer and will be "frequently washing our hands, trying to stay as clean as possible."

The Khans, along with a number of people at the center who are going on the Hajj, also are getting H1N1 inoculations.

Dr. Asif Saberi gives them a short lecture on how to prepare and encourages everyone to have their shots at least seven days before traveling. He says the Saudi government is doing a lot to protect pilgrims, but "the magnitude of the problem is the magnitude of the numbers of people who attend the Hajj."

When it comes to using hand sanitizer and wearing masks, Saberi says he encounters confusion about religious dictates and flu prevention. According to Muslim beliefs, for example, men in a state of pilgrimage should not wear any stitched items or touch alcohol. So what about wearing face masks or using alcohol-based sanitizers?

Now there's a pickle, eh?

I think it's hilarious that Muslims are getting swine flue vaccines so they can go to Hajj. I wonder if the pilgrimage makes up for that, or do they have to kill a few extra infidels or Jews to make up for that one?

Americans Bow to Royalty?

How low will the new American president go for the world's royalty?

This photo will get Democrat President Obama a lot of approving nods in Japan this weekend, especially among the older generation of Japanese who still pay attention to the royal family living in its downtown castle. Very low bows like this are a sign of great respect and deference to a superior.

Excerpted from an excellent article; please read the rest here.

Remember this:

Oh, but that wasn't a bow according to the White House. Maybe Obama was looking for a contact or something. Sheesh.

Rather than comport himself with the dignity of the office of the Presidency, Obama may as well go crawling to the world's royalties. Disgusting.

Must'nt Offend Muslims...

Another appalling example of dhimmitude has presented itself from this source:

(All emphasis mine.)

KENT, Conn. — Peter Gadiel wants everyone to remember his son, James, who was killed during the September 11 terrorist attacks.

And he also wants people to remember how he died: "Murdered by Muslim terrorists."

For Gadiel, any tribute to his son would be woefully incomplete without those words.

As is his RIGHT.

"I think it's important, because I think there's a nationwide effort to suppress the identity of the people who were involved in the attacks," Gadiel told Fox News.

Yep. It's call DHIMMITUDE.

Eight years ago, 23-year-old James Gadiel worked for Cantor Fitzgerald on the 103rd floor of the World Trade Center. He died when a hijacked plane crashed into the North Tower.

For years, Gadiel's hometown of Kent, Conn., has wanted to honor the young man with a memorial plaque next to its town hall. But the tribute has hit a snag because James' father wants to include the phrase, "Murdered by Muslim terrorists," under his son's name.

For Peter Gadiel, it is a central fact of the Sept. 11 attacks that is often left out.

"It isn't just overlooked, it's suppressed," Gadiel said. "It's simply wrong to imply that people just died. The buildings didn't just collapse, they didn't just fall down — they were attacked by people with a specific identity, a specific purpose."

Exactly. Men murdered thousands under the banner of Islam.

Town officials call the phrase too controversial for a small town memorial, and they recently voted against erecting the plaque if Gadiel insists on the language.

"We perceive ourselves as a very warm, loving town," said Ruth Epstein, a Kent selectman and one of two town leaders to vote the plaque down. "To disparage any one ethnic group is just against everything that we stand for here."

Since when did Muslim TERRORISTS become an ethnic group?!?

Epstein noted that other Sept. 11 memorials, like the one at the Pentagon, don't mention Muslim terrorists, and she said she does not want to alienate any members of her small and close-knit community.

So other memorials didn't have the balls to tell the truth. And as for the close-knit community? The Koran point-blank says that a Muslim may not take a kuffar as a friend. So how closely-knit is this community exactly?

Let's call this for the P.C. bullshit that it is, shall we?

"We have at least one Muslim family living here with children and it — it would be just awful to have them see something like that," Epstein told Fox News.

One Muslim family v.s. thousands of victims of Islamist terrorism? Well, that would be just awful to offend them, wouldn't it?

Never mind that they should not be offended AT ALL if they aren't MUSLIM TERRORISTS, as the proposed memorial would say...

But for Gadiel, it's an important message that he insists be present on any tribute to his son.

"Muslims have to acknowledge that it was their co-religionists who committed this act in their name," he said. "I am offended that unlike so many others, they refuse to acknowledge that it was their people who did this."

EXACTLY. Where is the outrage in Islam for their religion being "hijacked?"

'Nuff said.
