Australian Judge saves girl from Circumcision

Court bars father from taking daughter for female circumcision

THE Family Court has for the first time intervened to prevent a father from taking his nine-year-old daughter back to Africa to have her circumcised.

Family Court judge Paul Cronin ordered the man, who is an Australian citizen of African descent, to surrender his passport and that of his daughter.

Justice Cronin banned the father from "removing or attempting to remove the child, born in March 1999, from the commonwealth of Australia".

This is a picture of a young Egyptian Muslim girl been Mutilated by some Islamic holy man arse hole or other, so as to ensure she does not SIN by enjoying SEX.

It is not clear whether the order was successful, since the man, known only as Mr Abbas, failed to appear in court.

Female circumcision, also known as genital mutilation, has been a crime in most Australian states since the late 1990s.


The law makes it clear that it is an offence not only to circumcise one's own daughter, or any other female child, but also to encourage or enable any other person to do it; or to leave the country for the purpose of having it done.

The practice is commonplace in some parts of Africa, in particular Somalia.

Justice Cronin said the father had told his former wife that he intended to return to Africa, which is "not where the child was born, but she is shown as having an African nationality".

He said the father "wishes to return to Africa for the purposes of female circumcision".



The judge said he would prevent the father from leaving Australia "just in case the purpose that I have mentioned is in fact what he has in mind".

He also gave the Department of Human Services in Victoria power to visit the man's home to ensure the girl's welfare.

The case was the first in which the Family Court had placed a child on the airport Watch List specifically to prevent her removal from Australia for circumcision, but the second in which it expressly forbade a parent from circumcising their daughter. In the first case, known as Wadmal and Amrita, Family Court judge Sally Brown ordered both parents be "restrained from visiting upon the child the act of circumcision, or any other surgical procedure with like effect, and allowing any other person to do so".

The father, who described himself in court documents as a "respectable Muslim scholar in the Muslim community", and the mother, who was of Turkish origin, were divorced under Islamic law, and each accused the other of wanting the girl circumcised.

Horrific ? Offended? Damn well be offended and ask Hussein just what part of the above picture is so worthy of "RESPECT", and just what part did the President of the United States of America BOW to on behalf of the American people, and why If you object to this savagery does he think YOU are ARROGANT.

The mother told the court that in June 2007, she received a visit from the Department of Human Services workers who said they had been told she intended to have the little girl circumcised on her first birthday, for she herself had been circumcised, and it was part of her culture.

She told them she intended to do no such thing; that she was not circumcised. She had to undergo an examination by the department's doctors, who confirmed that she was not.

She told the judge that she did not even know that women in her husband's culture were circumcised until he told her so, the morning after their marriage, when he asked why she was not.

She told the court that she believed her ex-husband was trying to "attribute circumcision of the child to her, when in fact (it) had been arranged by him".

The father disputed this, saying it was common in his culture but "a primitive village practice" to which he was opposed.

The judge accepted the mother's evidence that circumcision was not practiced in her culture. He also said the father "sounded genuine when he said he saw the practice as primitive".

"But he sounded genuine when telling lies", and prudence suggested that orders restraining both parents from allowing the procedure be kept in place, the judge said.

Who would take a razor blade to a child's vagina? A "respectable Muslim scholar in the Muslim community" of course, who the F**K else?

Even the Islam Friendly United Nations World Health Organization Publicly objects to Female Genital Mutilation

Hey we are talking about people/ "Religion" / mindset that the President of the United States of America, Barack Hussein Obama, has said that the non Muslim world must RESPECT, he demonstrated his own submission to Islam by bowing at the hand of the Saudi King Abdulla recently in London at the United Nations G20 Gabfest, for what they are and the great contribution Islam has made to the world, hey it's one of the worlds "Great Religions",and it's a "Religion of Peace" as well, gee Hussein, maybe Female Circumcision should be compulsory for all females then.

Full marks to the Judge, I have to say I am surprised at his decision, as the Australian "Family" Court usually sides with the LOON'S in these type of matters, especially where the Muslim / Multicultural card is dealt, lest they be accused of been racist or God forbid, Islamophobic,hopefully this little girl will be able to grow up into womanhood without been mutilated in the name of her parents Satanic Cult of Islam.

Australia likely to avoid Jew Hate Fest,Durban 2

UN Anti-racism conference likely to be avoided by Australia

April 14, 2009
The Australian

FOREIGN Minister Stephen Smith has given the strongest indication yet that Australia is unlikely to attend a controversial UN anti-racism conference.

There are fears the Durban Review Conference, to be held in Geneva from Monday to Friday next week could become a repeat of the original South African event in 2001, which was marred by claims of anti-Semitism.

Mr Smith expects to make a decision on whether Australia will attend possibly days before the main session of the conference on April 24.

Delegates from the US and Israel walked out of the 2001 meeting because much of the discussion focused on Israel being a racist state.

The Opposition has been urging the Rudd Government to withdraw from the conference, known as Durban II.

Australia has been delaying a decision so it could give organisers an opportunity to improve the draft text but the Rudd Government remains dissatisfied with the work done to date.

"I continue to have very grave concerns about the text," Mr Smith said yesterday.

"I continue to have very grave concerns about the prospect of Australia attending (the conference)."

The last opportunity for change appears to be as the group working on the text moves into a preparatory review conference this week.

"I will see how developments unfold in the course of the preparatory review conference before making a judgment," Mr Smith said.

"As things stand, I remain very gravely concerned about the state of the text. I remain very gravely concerned about the prospects of the Durban Review conference being a repeat of the earlier conference, and I expect in the next week or so to be able to make a final judgment about Australia's attendance or not.

"Frankly, unless something qualitatively changes or something qualitatively different occurs, it is most unlikely that Australia will attend the Durban Review Conference in Geneva."

Kevin Rudd's Australia: Paedophilia of the Mind

Racism lessons planned for the under-5s

By Susie O'Brien and Gemma Jones

CHILDCARE centres could be forced to fly the Aboriginal flag and use "persona dolls" to teach youngsters about exclusion and ethical issues.

The guidelines are contained in a draft Federal Government program designed to help teachers deal with children aged under five.

Under the Early Years Learning Framework, childcare workers would be encouraged to teach the children in their care about a raft of social and ethical issues including reconciliation and racism.

Critics of the initiative, which claimed to make children socially responsibly for a "future world", yesterday said youngsters should be left alone to play.

"It is unnecessary and will cause enormous angst in the community," Opposition community services spokeswoman Pru Goward said yesterday.

"Let children be children. I have never heard of racism or discrimination (at a childcare centre).

"For goodness sake, they are three and four years old."

Ms Goward said most centres were good at teaching social inclusion and about Aboriginal heritage to peers at centres attended by indigenous children.

Psychologist, author and speaker Evelyn Field yesterday questioned the need for role modelling using puppets and dolls, instead preferring teachers "keep it simple through encouraging children to play together".

The political emphasis of the guidelines had divided early-learning experts.

Some, such as educational consultant Kathy Walker, yesterday questioned the merits of such issues being "rammed down the throats" of youngsters.

"Although I welcome the emphasis on play-based learning, there is an air of political correctness about the document overall," Ms Walker said.

Others, such as Kindergarten Parents CEO Victoria Meredith Carter, believed it was merely an attempt to "include and welcome all families to join in preschool and kinder".

In less controversial sections, the guidelines focused strongly on play-based learning, the importance of communication and language, the role of family in children's lives and social and emotional development.

Sydney International Airport, 12 "Middle Eastern men assault Female Customs officer

I well remember the Transport Workers Union (TWU) during the previous Howard governments terms of office, holding press conferences at the Sydney International Terminal,Tony Sheldon,if memory serves me correctly,the head of the TWU,looking into the assembled medias TV cameras advising the citizens of Australia that it was only a matter of time (minutes even) before Australians would experience an act of terror at Sydney International Airport due to the Howard governments lax security at Sydney International Airport.

One such case of the TWU alerting the Sydney media to such an imminent catastrophe,was when,what was described by the media as a mentally disabled man, inadvertently accessed a secure area of the terminal, within minutes of this incident taking place,the TWU was joined by not only their adoring media fan club,but surprise,surprise the oppositions shadow minister Robert McClelland, for what I will, loosely call homeland security, ie all things anti terror.

There they were Sheldon and Robert McClelland warning Australians of this close call and demanding everything from the resignation of the Howard Government Minister responsible for National Security, through to free cheese for dead rats in Siberia.

Neither the media or the TWU reported on what happened to the mentally disabled man after he was,I assume was taken into custody and later taken into care by either his family or the relative mental health service providers,there was never a follow up reported on this "poor" mans situation.

The TWU has a very poor record when it comes to security issues at Sydney Airport,their members have been charged and convicted with theft from passenger baggage and using passenger baggage to transport drugs for Union friendly International drug rings.

The TWU and it's members (as is the case of all union members in Australia) are also major Financiers / Bankers / Fundraisers, of the Australian Labor Party (ALP),the present Federal Government of Australia, led by Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, who was elected on November 24 2007.

The attack upon the Female Australian Customs Officer at Sydney Airport,by twelve men of "Middle Eastern appearance" inside the secure Customs area was apparently not thought of as been as serious an incident,as the TWU's and McClelland's "disappearing mentally disabled man" entering a non descript area of the same airport when the Australian Labor Party was in opposition, otherwise they would have had the media out at Sydney International Airport within minutes of the attack taking place wouldn't they ?

I disagree with the Australian Labor Party and their financiers the Transport Workers Union, along with the Customs officers Union, call me crazy but hey I believe we have more to fear from twelve Middle Eastern thugs who are so emboldened by whatever,that they feel they are immune from the restrictions that apply to Australians,that they can enter restricted Royal Australian Customs area's of Sydney International Airport and when challenged and asked to leave they simply vilify and physically assault a Female officer of the Crown,whereupon these twelve brave men ? of Middle Eastern Appearance simply walk away and continue on with their plans unhindered by the AFP or Airport security.

I have said good bye to friends and loved ones at the same entrance to this particular gateway to Customs at Sydney International Airport, there is nothing about the signage that would make anyone think that it was an area open to NON passenger access, I have been inside the same area as a passenger and you simply have no business been there other than as a passenger leaving Australia, so the 'me no speaka da English " defense holds no water at all.

The scary part is that there is NO video footage of the invasion and assault by no less than twelve men of Middle Eastern Appearance.
A man was bashed to death in front of hundreds of passengers at the Domestic terminal some four weeks ago by twenty men who were able to escape by Taxi, before security arrived, there is no video footage of this attack either.

The same weapons used to smash the Domestic terminal victims skull in, were used in the attack upon the Female Royal Australian Customs Officer at the International Terminal, stainless steel bollards used to support the queuing tape.

Sleep tight Australian and International passengers who use Sydney International and indeed all Australian Airports, there has been no further reports of the "mentally disabled man" who so alarmed the TWU, the media and the now Rudd Labor Government, phewwww!!!

Nothing to see here..... move along now ...nothing to see here.

There does seem to be a different set of rules for people awaiting passengers from Middle Eastern arrivals at Sydney Airport, I have seen with my own eyes these people blatantly disregarding all and every security / sign within the arrivals area.

They simply seem to think that the rules of the arrivals terminal, just like every other rule or law in Australia, does not apply to them.

I have been told by Airport staff that their attitude is one of so what we do what we want, try and stop us without a riot taking place by the hoards that they usually bring with them to meet another of their kind arriving.
I have seen them push and shove elderly Australians and children out of their way and dominate seating and eating areas with no regard for common manners and decency, the images you see on TV where they are running in murderous riots over cartoons depicting their infamous Paedophile Pirate Mohammad,are no different than their behaviour when they think they might have to wait an extra minute or two to see some relative or friend emerge through the arrivals exit chute.

But then I am so arrogant and probably Islamophobic and indeed racist, for objecting to this type of Pig Ignorant behaviour by the members of the "Religion of Peace".

Islam can only exist as an Oppressive majority or a disruptive minority.

Muslim has Daughter Killed for wearing MINI SKIRT

Daughter killed over mini-skirt

News.com.au
April 13, 2009 11:20pm

AN Azeri immigrant in Russia's northern city of Saint Petersburg has been charged with hiring hit men to kill his 21-year-old daughter for wearing a mini-skirt, police said today.

The man's arrest follows the detention last week of two other citizens of Azerbaijan, a majority Muslim state in the Caucasus, who confessed to murdering the girl, a university medical student.

“They admitted to being paid 100,000 rubles ($4140) by the girl's father. They said he wanted to punish his daughter for flouting national traditions and wearing a mini-skirt,” a police source told said today.

The girl was abducted on the street in Russia's second city on March 8, taken to the outskirts of Saint Petersburg and then shot twice in the head, the source said.

Russia has experienced a revival of conservative religious tradition since the fall of the Soviet Union both within its Russian Orthodox and large Muslim communities.

The Saint Petersburg Mosque – the largest and northernmost in Europe when it was built in 1913 – now counts mostly migrants from ex-Soviet Azerbaijan among its worshippers.

Hey don't get mad and object you just gotta do what Hussein Obama says and RESPECT this mans right to have his daughter slaughtered by his fellow Islamists, It's all about regaining Honour, you know honour don't you ? if you dont it's probably because you are not a Muslim, Oh you disagree ? you are not one of those ARROGANT,Racist Islamophobes are you ?

Congratulations to the US Navy Seals, rescuing Captain Phillips from Islams finest.

Congratulations to the US Navy Seals on the success of their mission.

Once again we see those most despised by the left,the US Military,laying their lives on the line to deal with the consequences and manifestations of the ideology and foreign policy of the left, they must be devastated at the loss of their much romanticised Muslim "Pirates"

No doubt after Hussein Obama has finished basking in the success, of what the media is spinning into a stroke of his own unique personal brilliance and cunning military savvy on his part by saving Captain Phillips from been yet another statistic on the ever growing list of Americans assassinated by members of the "Religion of Peace", there will be the obligatory "full and open " inquiry, aka a Democrat led star chamber to see if there is any possibility to lay charges against the Navy Seals involved in the rescue for anything from first degree murder,impolite and or,god forbid,they were ARROGANT, did not remove their shoes before entering the life boat,to been in violation of US Navy dress code as they carried out their deadly mission.

How long before we see "Che" style tee shirts,romanticising the Lefts Dead Muslim Pirates at the next ACORN,Move On,Not in Our Name or Code Pink hate fest ? naturally all proceeds going to the grieving widows and orphaned children of their much loved Dead Muslim Pirates / Freedom Fighters.

Sadui Arabia: Eight-year-old girl's arranged marriage is legal

Eight-year-old girl's arranged marriage is legal

The Daily Telegraph
April 13, 2009 02:45pm

A JUDGE has refused to overturn his ruling declaring the arranged marriage of an eight-year-old girl to a 47-year-old man legal - despite her mum's appeal.

Saudi Arabian judge Sheikh Habib Habib insists the girl's marriage to her father's friend is binding, although she can file for divorce when she reaches puberty.

But what if this little 8 year old girl wanted to remain a virgin until such time as she chose to marry a real man in a real marriage?

This piece of Islamist Paedophile Crap is simply following in the footsteps of the founder of Islam, Mohammed, with his vile filthy custom of interferring with young children.

Hussein Obama now demands we must RESPECT this quirkey little trait in Islamic culture.

The mother's attorney Abdullah Jutaili said the girl's father arranged the marriage with his "close friend" to pay off a monetary debt.

A relative said the girl's mother, who is divorced from the father, will continue to seek to overturn the marriage.

And Hussein Obama BOW's and apologises to this, look out America.

Sydney Australia: Crucifixes, Bibles banned from Hospital Chapel " to avoid offending Muslims, Hindus or other non-Christian believers"

The chapel without a crucifix

by Paul Tatnell
MosmanDaily
08 Apr 09

THE home of God at Royal North Shore hospital has fallen victim to a higher power - the State Government bureaucracy.

The Mosman Daily has learnt that crucifixes, Bibles and all other Christian symbols are banned inside the hospital’s chapel when it is not being used for a church service.

The move, ordered by senior staff, is to avoid offending Muslims, Hindus or other non-Christian believers who may want to pray in the chapel.

Hospital staff say that while the chapel was built for Christians, they now want the chapel to be completely non-denominational. An inspection of the chapel last week by the Daily found no trace of a crucifix or any other religious symbol inside the chapel.

The Daily has been told that church leaders must bring their own symbols to use in a service.

The chapel building also contains a separate Muslim prayer room.

Mosman Mayor Dom Lopez, a devout Catholic, said he was “outraged” to discover the rule when he was recently undergoing treatment at the hospital for bowel cancer. “When I was first told it I didn’t believe it,” Cr Lopez said.

“When I was recovering, the Catholic priest came to see me and said, ‘It is true all the crosses are gone, somebody said we have to be a non-denomination church’.

“That’s just not right, it was built as a Christian chapel, now they (church leaders) have all to take all those things with them.”

North Shore Liberal MP and Opposition health spokeswoman Jillian Skinner said the decision was “bureaucratic madness”.

“It’s crazy, absolutely crazy,” she said.

“I bet there was no pressure from the Muslim community, the Jews or anyone - it’s just silly bureaucrats.”

Mrs Skinner said visitors to the chapel needed all the strength they could get and that symbols of God would provide that.

“I actually think it’s offensive to all faiths (and) it is silly bureaucratic rules,” she said.

Cr Lopez agreed.

“They have completely disenfranchised a Christian chapel,” he said.

“Being a Christian, I find a lot of power in prayer and I think a lot of people do whether they are Muslim, Jewish or whatever.”

A hospital spokeswoman said the rule change came after “the chapel was enhanced with the provision of a Muslim prayer space in the loft area”.

“At that time the decision was made to display the symbols of each faith, for example the chapel’s cross and Bible, during specific services and ceremonies only,” she said.

“These important religious symbols are appropriately stored and used regularly. This decision was made out of respect for the many faiths that make up both the hospital and also the modern Australian community.”

Hussein Obama's Congressional Black Caucus: U.S. Lawmakers Meet With Castros, Push for New Policy on Cuba.

Seven lawmakers traveled to Cuba this week to encourage greater dialogue between the U.S. and the communist nation.

WASHINGTON -- Former Cuban President Fidel Castro was "very engaging, very energetic," U.S. Rep. Barbara Lee, a California Democrat, said following a congressional delegation's meeting with the ailing revolutionary.

The delegation that traveled to Cuba featured six members of the Congressional Black Caucus and Rep. Mike Honda, D-Calif., and they returned to Washington late Tuesday afternoon and urged the United States government to begin steps to alter its relationship with Cuba.

"For the past 50 years, the United States has been swimming in the Caribbean Sea of delusion," said Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, D-Mo., who described the United States as "the isolated nation" compared to European countries which have diplomatic ties with Havana.

"This is the dawning of a new day," Rep. Bobby Rush, D-Ill., declared. "Fifty years of foolishness is over. It's time for the children to sit in the corner and the adults to take over."

Rush was one of three members of the delegation to meet with Fidel Castro. A meeting with his brother, Cuban leader Raul Castro, took place Monday.

Tuesday afternoon, the Cuban government released a statement that it indicated was Fidel Castro's assessment of a session he had with the lawmakers. In the statement, Castro said that one of the Members of Congress told him that the United States should "apologize" to Cuba. And another lawmaker told the former leader that despite the victory by President Obama, U.S. society is still "racist."

All members of the delegation denied that those two exchanges took place during their time with Fidel Castro.

The lawmakers encouraged the U.S. to launch a dialogue with Cuba and relieve trade and modify a 47-year-old American trade embargo against the island nation.

"You can't not talk to people and expect to get a desirable result," said Rep. Mel Watt, D-N.C., who added that the embargo "was not effective."

Rep. Laura Richardson, D-Calif., was one of three lawmakers who requested and met with Fidel Castro. She described him as alert and said the former Cuban dictator "looked directly into our eyes, quite aware of what was happening. He said to us, 'how can we help President Obama?'"

Rush indicated that it was time for Washington to remove Cuba from the list of terrorist nations. Rush dismissed Cuba as a security threat to the United States. He said that when he was a member of the Black Panthers in the 1960s, former FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover warned that his organization as "the number one threat to national security.

"So I know foolhardy approaches and asinine labels when I see them, " said Rush. "American people need to be told the truth and they have been lied to for too long about the threat from Cuba."

Both Rep. Rush, an ordained Baptist minister, and Rep. Cleaver, a Methodist pastor, delivered sermons at churches while in Cuba.

The CBC members conceded there were limited discussions about human rights abuses in Cuba.

"We didn't talk about it much," said Rep. Marcia Fudge, D-Ohio. "You don't go into someone's house and insult them."

But Congressional Black Caucus Chairwoman Barbara Lee, D-Calif., who led the delegation said that Raul Castro indicated to her that "everything's on the table."

"Two sovereign nations should be able to sit down and talk about their differences, " Lee said.

The U.S. Air Force flew the Congressional Black Caucus delegation directly to Havana and not the American military base at Guantanamo Bay. The Air Force then gave each lawmaker a pin featuring adjoining American and Cuban flags to help identify them as members of the delegation.

It's the Koran Stupid!!!!!!
Garbage IN Garbage OUT

Article below recounts the "touching" ? Satanic scene, as one of Satan's most infamous helpers is claimed by Satan's underlings and is returned to the sewers of Hell.

Daniel Pipes

The death of Ayatollah Ruhollah Musavi Khomeini on June 4 was mourned by millions of his followers with an extravagance that surprised even the Iranian authorities. Time and again, funeral plans were disrupted by gigantic mobs unwilling to give way either to schedules or politicians.

The scene in Tehran was one of unrelieved chaos. In the traditional Shi`i manner, men pounded their chests and flagellated themselves with chains. Some sacrificed sheep and some shouted, "We wish we were dead, so not to see our beloved imam dead." Others ran 25 miles to the cemetery. The grave dug for Khomeini's body was occupied by mourners who refused to leave. The authorities appealed to citizens to stay away from Khomeini's house and from the cemetery, but to no avail.

Fire trucks sprayed water on mourners in an effort to keep them from fainting in the intensity of the June heat and the press of humanity. According to official sources, 10,879 people were injured and received on-the-spot medical attention, 438 were taken to hospitals, and eight died in the crush to view Khomeini's body. In the cemetery, mourners climbed on buses the better to catch a glimpse of the body, and in one case the roof of a bus collapsed, injuring those sitting inside. `Ali Khamene'i, the president of the republic, could not even reach the special stand set up for dignitaries. The special stand for state officials and foreign dignitaries almost collapsed under pressure of the crowd.

The height of frenzy occurred at the gravesite itself. Bringing the body by land vehicle was out of the question, so it arrived by helicopter. The first time the helicopter landed, the crowd swarmed in and grabbed pieces of the shroud, causing the corpse actually to fall to the ground. After fifteen frantic minutes, the coffin was put back on the helicopter, which then bore the body away. In an attempt to thin out the crowd, it was announced that the funeral had been postponed by a day. The trick worked, as many went home. Then, six hours after the first attempt, a second effort at a helicopter landing was made. This time more guards were around and the body was placed in a metal casket. Still, it was not easy. As the Iranian news agency described it: "The grave was only ten meters away but the pushing and shoving of thousands made it seem like kilometers. It took ten terrible minutes to be able to put the casket down near the grave." Once the body had finally been buried, concrete blocks were placed on top of it.

What a fitting ending for one of "Islams finest"

Islam IS what Islam DOES
