Tolerance, can’t we just get along?

 

I  am perplexed that so many of my friends are against a mosque  being built near Ground Zero. I think it

should be the goal of  every American to be tolerant.  The mosque should be  allowed, in an effort to

promote TOLERANCE.

That  is why I also propose, that two gay nightclubs be opened next  door to the mosque thereby

promoting tolerance within the  mosque. We could call the clubs "The Turban Cowboy" and "You  Mecca

Me So Hot".

 
Next  door should be a butcher shop that specializes in pork and have  an open barbeque with spare ribs

as its daily special.   Across the street a very daring lingerie store called  "Victoria Keeps Nothing Secret”

with sexy mannequins in the  window modeling the goods.

 
Next  door to the lingerie shop, there would be room for an Adult Toy Shop (Koranal Knowledge?), its

name in flashing neon lights, and on the other side a liquor store, maybe call it "Morehammered"?  

If  you agree in promoting tolerance and you think this is a good  plan, pass it on. 

Thanks to Mike for the above.

Climate change campaigners spark fury with video featuring exploding children

Daily Telegraph
October 02, 2010

A CLIMATE change campaign video made by Love Actually writer Richard Curtis sparked fury after it featured children being blown up, the (London) Daily Telegraph reported Saturday.

In the four-minute video a teacher is shown blowing up two schoolchildren with a detonator after they display little interest in a project to cut carbon emissions, the (London) Daily Telegraph reported.

Former soccer star David Ginola and The X-Files star Gillian Anderson were also given the same treatment.

The film, which is part of a 10:10 climate change campaign, was posted online but withdrawn within hours after a barrage of outrage, especially from climate change sceptics.

Curtis, who is famous for sugar-sweet films such as Love Actually, Four Weddings and a Funeral and Notting Hill, is a big supporter of the campaign which aims to cut carbon emissions by 10 per cent.

A spokesman for the campaign organisers said: "We have discussed our decision with Richard and he is happy for the film to be withdrawn. We wanted to find a way to bring this critical issue back into the headlines while making people laugh.

“Many people found the resulting film extremely funny, but unfortunately some didn't and we sincerely apologise to anybody we have offended. As a result we've taken if off our website."

This Video is an insight into the mindset of the Enviro NAZI's,Gore, Brown, Wong,Oakeshott,Windsor, Gillard,Combet,Turnbull,Rudd,Hussein Obama, the Clinton's to name but a few, no wonder Bin Laden has joined their Islamo Fascist Enviro Nazi cause, both cults /ideologies enjoy blowing up children and adults who disagree with their cults belief's.

Paedophiles of the mind, standing in front of every classroom,wearing the United Nations cloak of peace and understanding,Unionism,love and tolerance, whilst they busily go about infecting and intimidating our children with their sick perverted cult of "Anthropogenic Global Warming" and "All Cultures, Religions are equal" & “Multiculturalism” so long as its not Judeo Christian Western Democracy.
There was time when all school teachers wanted to was sexually abuse our children, now,bored with that, they want their minds as well.

Turkish ambassador to Australia demands removal of Assyrian Genocide memorial, or else………………….

Turkey threatens to delay Gallipoli survey in statue row

Daily Telegraph
September 29, 2010 5:16PM

TURKEY may delay a survey of its

battlefields with New Zealand and Australia in protest at a World War I monument built in Australia, the Turkish ambassador said Wednesday.

Oguz Ozge, Turkey's ambassador to Australia and New Zealand, told Radio New Zealand that the monument in Sydney, which commemorates the deaths of around 750,000 Assyrians, was "quite unacceptable."

The monument, erected by Assyrian community leaders, refers to the alleged killing of the Assyrians by Ottoman troops as "genocide". Government minister Chris Bowen was photographed at its unveiling last month.

"This is quite concerning to the Turkish government, and as long as remedial action is not taken we intend to do something on the part of the Turkish government," Mr Ozge said.

Archaeologists from Turkey, New Zealand and Australia are next week due to begin mapping the Gallipoli peninsula, the scene of a bloody World War I offensive seen as a key moment in Australian and New Zealand history.

A final decision to suspend the Gallipoli survey had not yet been taken, but Mr Ozge said it "could be, until we find a way out".

"We hope to see the Australian government do something about (the monument)" he said.

"We are in touch with the Australian authorities ... It is our intention to find a way out which would be satisfactory to us all," he added.

Ian McGibbon, New Zealand's representative in the Gallipoli survey, said the row had cast next week's trip to Turkey into doubt, adding that the project had been several years in the making.

"I suspect it may eventually be next year now," Mr McGibbon told NZPA.

"I guess we just wait until the issue is resolved."

Mr McGibbon said the exercise aimed to provide a detailed archaeological map of the battlefields, where 11,500 Australian and New Zealand troops died in an offensive aimed at wresting the Dardanelles Strait from the Ottoman Empire, the predecessor of modern Turkey.

Turkey's foreign minister had earlier condemned the monument in Sydney's south-west, blaming people who "want to poison the perfect relations between Australia and Turkey and intend to rewrite history for political gain".

Vandals have attacked the monument, spray-painting it with the words, "Assyrian dogs", and the Turkish flag.

Perhaps Sydney’s “Muslim community “ will start desecrating Australian War Memorials if we don’t demolish this Assyrian Genocide Memorial.

Note the desecration of the Australian continent on the Globe, with the Islamic terrorist insignia, their “Moon God’s” crescent and star.

Assyrian Genocide Monument in Australia Vandalized

Asbarez

31 8 2010

FAIRFIELD, Australia (AINA) — The recently erected Assyrian Genocide Monument has been vandalized and painted with a Turkish crescent and star.

According to Fairfield police, the vandalism occurred around 4 AM. The police thus far have no leads on the perpetrators.

The vandals painted a Turkish crescent and star on the monument’s globe, which sits on a pedestal resembling a hand, as well as spray painted the words: “fuck Assyrian dogs” and “fuck Assyria” on the left and forward sides of the base of the monument. The plaque at the front of the monument was also removed.

According to the Fairfield City Champion, a local newspaper, a war memorial in Fairfield Park, dedicated to Australian and Assyrian soldiers who fought together, was also vandalized with a mixture of concrete and paint.

The monument’s desecration comes as no surprise to the local community, which erected the structure on August 7. Assyrian community leaders had privately expressed concerns about the safety of the monument immediately after its dedication ceremony.

The monument is dedicated to the 750,000 Assyrians that were killed by Turks in World War One, between 1915 and 1918.

"a manipulative, deceitful man" and Turkish wife beater, “just dancing”… honest “just dancing”

 

Man claimed wife beating was 'dancing'

Daily Telegraph
September 30, 2010 12:04PM

A TURKISH immigrant who claimed he was performing a traditional dance with violent-looking moves as he beat his wife has been convicted of assault by a New Zealand judge.

Kebab shop owner Allaetin Can was arrested in August after a passer-by reported he was attacking his wife outside their takeaway in the North Island town of Hawera.

He denied the assault charge, arguing he and his wife were celebrating a profitable lunchtime's trade with a traditional dance called kolbasti, which features mock wrestling, hitting and kicking.

After last month ordering police to examine Can's claims, judge Allan Roberts described them as "nonsense" in a decision handed down yesterday.

"I reject the explanation as a lie," Roberts said, labelling Can "a manipulative, deceitful man".

Is there no end to these arse clowns insolence?  Identification + Internment + repatriation = a civilized west again.

Former Australian PM John Howard stands up for the “Anglosphere”

 

Islam can only exist as a DISRUPTIVE  minority or as an OPPRESSIVE majority

English-speaking countries should hold on to identities: Howard

TodayOnline
Sep 30, 2010

WASHINGTON - Former Australian Prime Minister John Howard has attacked "multiculturalism" in English-speaking nations, while urging countries to hold on firmly to their cultural identities in the battle against

terrorism.

Mr Howard said on Tuesday on a visit to Washington that the "Anglosphere" needed to take greater pride in its values and achievements.

"I think one of the errors that some sections of the English-speaking world have made in the last few decades has been to confuse multiracialism and multiculturalism," Mr Howard said at the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think-tank.

He pointed in particular to Britain, whose Muslim community came under the spotlight after the 2005 bombings on the London transport system.

He declared that he was "a passionate believer in multiracialism", in which migrants from different cultures of the world adopt the culture of their new country.

 

 

"I believe that societies are enriched if they draw ... from all parts of the world on a non-discriminatory basis," he said.

"But when a nation draws people from other parts of the world, it draws them because of the magnetism of its own culture and its own way of life.

"People want to live in the United States not because of some futuristic ideal of multiculturalism but because of what they regard as the American way of life and American values," he said.

Mr Howard also warned that Islamic radicalism posed a real threat and warned against pandering to extremist philosophies in order to win their support.

"There is a tendency to see a response to terrorism in terms of placating alternative philosophies in the hope that they will accommodate you and abandon their aggressive designs on your society," he said.

The "Anglosphere" and other countries should not apologise for their cultur al identities but instead stand up for their beliefs, Mr Howard said. Agencies

Pretty straight forward and logical comments I would have thought… but wait, Howard is like the overwhelming majority of the Earths population NOT a Muslim, so what does Australia’s Muslim Idiot in search of a village in residence say in reply to Howards wise words….

Brad Norington and Lanai Vasek

September 30, 2010

“………………………….Islamic Friendship Association of Australia president Keysar Trad said Mr Howard's comments were racist.

"He should find relevance in the world without picking on minorities," he said. "I think it is really a guilty conscience."

Mr Trad said Mr Howard had a "phobia" about multiculturalism.

"There is no harm of having a different understanding of variety of cultures in a society," he said.

Rachel Bloul, a sociologist who specialises in Muslim migrants in the West at the Australian National University, said Mr Howard's comments were "inappropriate' and "not at all smart".

"Each time when the question of Muslim migrants is taken up by politicians it inflames debate even more than is necessary," Dr Bloul said.

"I'm sure it would create problems in Australia."

And Australia’s very own Fabian Socialist minority Labor / Green Loon / socialist independent coalition appointed federal government PM says

A spokesman for Julia Gillard declined to comment on Mr Howard's speech.

"Mr Howard's comments are a matter for him."

That’s code for I am importing into Australia as many of these cave dwellers as I can, she can hardly agree with Howard can she?

Indonesia : Schoolgirl virginity test rejected, “…….a "frenzy" of internet use could tear the nation apart”

 

Schoolgirl virginity test plan rejected

Daily Telegraph
September 28, 2010 6:51PM

THE Indonesian government has dismissed a lawmaker's proposal to force teenage schoolgirls to undergo virginity tests.

Women's affairs ministry official Wahyu Hartomo said such tests would violate basic human rights and potentially harm the health of young women.

"That kind of test violates human rights and will have serious psychological impacts on students," he said.

"It is more effective for our generation to receive moral education from their parents at home, especially with the (bad) influence from the internet."

Lawmakers in Sumatra island's Jambi province have agreed to drop the idea, which was proposed by local parliamentarian Bambang Bayu Suseno, Hartomo said.

Suseno believes girls should be required to pass virginity tests before they can enter state-funded high schools, citing concerns over pre-marital sex among teenagers in the Muslim-majority country.

"The idea is simple. Parents are obviously afraid of their daughters being deflowered before the time comes, so before they continue their studies they can undergo a virginity test and automatically protect their dignity,'' he told The Jakarta Post newspaper.

"Why are girls who lose their virginity allowed to go to public school?"

Indonesian officials are struggling to balance the country's rapid modernisation, especially the runaway growth of internet use, with traditional, mainly Muslim values.

President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono has signed a controversial anti-pornography law, backed filters against online pornography and warned that a "frenzy" of internet use could tear the nation apart.

Earlier this year police entered classrooms to check teenage students' mobile phones for evidence they had downloaded celebrity sex clips that went viral on the internet, causing a national scandal.

Well hey who are we to judge? …. I am just trying to be non judgmental, in a spirit of outreach and interfaith dialogue.

Oops: ex-minister Rachida Dati confuses oral sex for inflation

Rachida Dati ... plotted against Carla Bruni-Sarkozy. Photo: Getty Images

France's glamorous former justice minister

confused oral sex with rising prices as she launched an attack on foreign investment funds.

"When I see some of them (funds) looking for returns of 20 or 25 percent, at a time when fellatio is almost non-existent...," she said during an interview on Europe 1 radio on Sunday.

In French the word is "fellation," which shares some syllables with inflation, which in French is the same as in English.

Dati was dropped from the French government last year after her penchant for designer dresses and appearing on the covers of celebrity magazines prompted criticism that a senior minister should not engage in such frivolity.

She is now a member of the European parliament.

Australian Socialist Labor Government to try Australian Soldiers for manslaughter !!!!!

Ex-soldiers face manslaughter charges
Daily Telegraph
September 27, 2010 1:24PM
THREE former Australian soldiers will be charged with manslaughter following an incident in Afghanistan last year, the Director of Military Prosecutions says.
"The accused persons will be charged with various service offences, including manslaughter, dangerous conduct, failing to comply with a lawful general order and prejudicial conduct," the director said in a statement.
The director, Brigadier Lyn McDade, had been considering whether to lay charges against the former commandos who conducted a night-time raid on a residential compound believed to harbour Taliban insurgents in February 2009.
Defense previously has said the deaths occurred as the soldiers conducted clearance operations using gunfire and hand grenades.
One suspected insurgent and five children were killed, while another two children and two adults were wounded.
Three former members of the Special Operations Task Group will be charged with service offences, Brigadier McDade said.
The soldiers facing charges were not named in the statement.
Brigadier McDade said her investigations had been completed only recently and only after "careful, deliberate and informed consideration".
In a statement released the day after the attack, defense said the deaths occurred as SOTG soldiers conducted clearance operations through a number of compounds.
"During the conduct of this operation the soldiers were fired upon by Taliban insurgents," it said.
"The SOTG engaged the insurgents, returning fire in accordance with their rules of engagement."
Two of the commandos say they will strenuously defend themselves.
Soldiers A and B, who remain anonymous, have issued a lengthy statement in response, promising to fight the charges.

"We will strenuously defend the charges and we look forward to the opportunity of publicly clearing our reputations, as well as the reputation of the Australian Defense Force," the pair said through the law firm Kennedys.
Defense Minister Stephen Smith said Brigadier's McDade decision was a matter for the "independent military legal process".
"It is not appropriate for me to comment on the decision of the military prosecutor, the incident itself, or to prejudge in any way the outcome which will be heard before a service tribunal or tribunals," he said in a statement.
Two ex-commandos to plead not guilty to manslaughter
By Peter Veness

September 27, 2010 2:19PM
TWO former Australian commandos facing charges over an incident in Afghanistan that left five children dead say they will strenuously defend themselves.
The Director of Military Prosecutions earlier today announced three commandos would be charged with a range of offences including manslaughter.
Soldiers A and B, who remain anonymous, have issued a lengthy statement in response, promising to fight the charges.
"We will strenuously defend the charges and we look forward to the opportunity of publicly clearing our reputations, as well as the reputation of the Australian Defence Force," the pair said through the law firm Kennedys.
Australian forces have now been in Afghanistan for nine years.
Soldiers A and B attacked the media for "many cases" of inaccurate reporting of the clearance operations.
"Words will never adequately express our regret that women and children were killed and injured during the incident on 12 February 2009," they said.
"These were people we were risking our lives to protect."
The soldiers blamed the deaths on the enemy.
"It should not be forgotten that the casualties were ultimately caused by the callous and reckless act of an insurgent who chose to repeatedly fire upon us at extreme close range from within a room he knew contained women and children," the pair said.
Their story was backed by a defence statement issued at the time which told of close fire from Taliban insurgents as the commandos cleared buildings.
Director Lyn McDade said her investigations - only recently completed - had been "careful, deliberate and informed".
"The accused persons will be charged with various service offences, including manslaughter, dangerous conduct, failing to comply with a lawful general order and prejudicial conduct," Brigadier McDade said in a statement.
Soldiers A and B said when the full facts of the battle became public, their decision would be vindicated.
"It will be clear to everyone that we made the correct decision under truly awful circumstances."

One of Australia’s Finest who survived

Just what does Labor think of Australia’s Military? former Labor Leader tells us .

 

So just who is this Brigadier Lyn McDade?

She is a former civilian lawyer who has no previous military experience (and certainly no Australian infantry combat action badge), but who was brought into the new military justice system to aid in efficiency and effectiveness.  Has she accomplished this?  “There has been widespread discontent with the take-no-prisoners approach of the Director of Military Prosecutions, Brigadier Lyn McDade. Military lawyers have told The Australian they believed minor offences that were previously subject to prejudicial conduct hearings had been endlessly moved into the court.”

It doesn’t bode well when the very chief of the military justice system is taking what would previously have been between a Non Commissioned Officer and his enlisted men – what in the U.S. is called non-judicial punishment – and placing it in formal military courts.  It would quite literally bring military justice to a halt in the U.S., cause undermanned units, and bring with it an atmosphere of dishonesty and suspicion.

Australia:Australian Officers demand more support for Diggers

 

Rebellion in the Defence ranks - officers want more support for Diggers

Ian McPhedran
The Daily Telegraph
September 24, 2010 12:00AM

MILITARY officers are angry top brass failed to reveal hundreds of troops were available but not used during a fatal battle in Afghanistan.

They accused Joint Operations Chief Lieutenant-General Mark Evans of understating the numbers available for the August 24 battle against 100 enemy fighters that claimed the life of Lance Corporal Jared Mackinney.

Up to 200 soldiers were kept in reserve during the three-hour battle and mortar and artillery support were not deployed, according to a briefing paper written by a senior intelligence official and obtained by The Daily Telegraph.

"Why did we have to withdraw when the enemy would have been armed with nothing more than light machine guns, rifles and rocket-propelled grenade launchers, and we had artillery, attack helicopters, light armour, fixed-wing air support and 250 troops?" the brief read.

The brief echoes the frustration at a lack of fire support and heavy armour to Australian troops first outlined in an email from a Digger who fought in the battle.

The paper adds weight to the view Diggers are fighting with a hand tied behind their backs.

"No one is questioning the conduct of the tactical commander," the document said.

"No one is being an 'armchair general'. What is being asked is whether General-rank officers are doing their job, shaping the battlefield by providing to the tactical commanders in these fire fights the resources they need to do the job and prevail. Retreating from a battle does not win you a war."

The latest document reflects the frustration felt by soldiers who believe the Australian commander on the ground, Major General John Cantwell - an armoured corps officer - should be provided with Abrams tanks.

"The deployment of a troop of tanks [three or four Abrams main battle tanks] would provide the existing task force with sufficient heavy armour to make the task force self-sufficient in terms of heavy armour support," it said.

According to sources, General Cantwell regularly requests more fire support, but his pleas have been rejected by a Government that fears a Vietnam-style quagmire or civilian casualties.

The army has 59 Abrams available for deployment.

Some officers have also demanded $70 million Tiger attack helicopters, but the Army's 17 machines won't be ready to fly to war until May next year.

"This battle has got to have raised doubts in the minds of the troops that we are behind them all the way," the report says.

Sydney Artist paints “Say no to Burqa Mural”

 

Ban the burqa mural 'not anti-Muslim' says artist

Henry Budd From: The Daily Telegraph
September 23, 2010

A MURAL urging governments to outlaw the burqa has appeared in the trendy inner-city suburb of Newtown.

Local artist Sergio Redegalli painted the "Say no to burqas" sign on the outside of workshop this week to start a debate about the practice of wearing face-covering veils.

Redegalli said burqas and niqabs are symbols of religious extremism and were becoming more prevalent in Australia.

He said the image was not anti-Muslim, anti-Islam or anti-women.

"If you let it [the practice of covering your face] go, someone, somewhere down the line will say we would like Sharia Law," he said.

Mr Redegalli said the image has already been defaced twice since he began painting it on Monday.

Mr Redegalli also drives a ute with stickers on the front saying "Australians have nothing to hide, say no to burqas".

About 2000 Muslims held a peaceful protest in Lakemba last Saturday, angered by growing local and international pressure to restrict the wearing of veils in public.

The rally was a response to recent bans in Europe and two failed attempts by Christian Democratic Party MP Fred Nile to have a Bill banning burqas and other face veils in public introduced in the NSW Legislative Council.

This Guy has had to employ a security guard to watch over his PRIVATE PROPERTY because he chooses to exercise his right to free speech in Australia.
