MORE than 4000 candles in white paper bags have been lit on the front lawn outside Parliament House in Canberra as part of a vigil against the Israel-Palestine conflict.

Religious leaders from the Islamic, Catholic, Anglican and Uniting faiths were also present to show their solidarity and support for peace in the Middle East region.

The paper bags were carefully laid out across the lawn to spell out both English and Arabic translations of the words, "Save Gaza Now".

The display's artist, Jorge Pujol, designed the Sorry, the First Step display after last year's historic apology to Indigenous Australians by Prime Minister Kevin Rudd.

“The candle message is pretty much a silent message. It's a message of light,” Keysar Trad, from the Islamic Friendship Association of Australia, told the gathering.

“We are lighting candles to bring about light, dissipate this evil of destruction.”

The vigil concludes a day of protests in Canberra over the conflict.

Australia's useful idiots have no limit to their idiocy and confected compassion,the usual parade of unelected,school teachers,'students",public servants,carers and sharers,the unemployable,publicly funded parasites, Union officials, Union members, and other assorted leftists, and free loading God Botherer's with clearly, not much to do today.
Under the ever present main stream, pro Hamas media eye, they cried on cue and shouted for the destruction of Israel in their quest for "peace" in a way that only Islamist's aka members of the "Religion of Peace" and their adoring new age Christian / atheist fan club can,
Ingratiating themselves to Australia's imported and purpose home bred Islamic Terrorist's and terrorism supporters,members of the Religion of Peace,aka Islam, and it's two faced carpet bagger's / community leaders clearly loved every minuet of their HATE FEST,just what would these arse clowns do without Israel and the west to blame 24/7 for every hurt they feel?

I can only assume they believe that they will in exchange for their betrayal of Australia they will be spared their lives should the Mongrel Dog of Islam take over here in Australia as it has in Gaza, why else would "Catholic, Anglican and Uniting faith" and other sufferers of Stockholm Syndrome, make such unashamed arse clowns of themselves by this Curr like behavior? when Australians who feel their only chance of survival and to appease Islams Satanic Beast,is to jump into bed with Islamic Terrorists and their Australian based representatives,all those who fought and died for us must be wondering why the hell they bothered.
I wonder just how many of these new age God loving "Christians" and atheist's live in Sydney's occupied territories in the south western Sydney suburbs with the Godless savages they marched with today.

What really happened in the Middle East or what you are NOT supposed to know.

ISRAEL’S Operation Cast Lead is unfolding like a familiar soap opera on the nightly news.

A series of Palestinian terrorists making blood-curdling threats against Israelis, a hail of missiles aimed at Israeli civilian targets, retaliatory strikes against the terrorists - who unfailingly seek to shelter behind innocent civilians - followed by scenes of weeping parents at crowded hospitals.

It is a plot line designed to soften the hardest heart. Unfortunately, those who buy the tear-jerking material unquestioningly are being duped.

No one, let alone a parent raised in a Western culture, could imagine placing children directly in harm’s way or encouraging impressionable infants to worship death but that is what the thugs and murderers responsible for the slaughter in Gaza have been doing.

It is an Islamist thing and Palestinian TV, often subsidised by the United Nations and European Union, is full of it.

In regular drama directed at kindergarten-aged children, children are taught that martyrdom is a beautiful state to aspire to, that suicide bombers are heroes and heroines and that even cartoon characters can sing and dance and murder their way into paradise.

Palestinian Media Watch and the Middle East Media Research Institute have been documenting this extraordinary perversion in recent years.

Among the scripts translated from Arabic is a cute story of the four-year-old daughter of female suicide bomber Reem Riyashi, shown singing to her dead mother and swearing to follow in her explosive footsteps. The video clip, aired on Hamas TV, depicts the little child asking her mother what she is carrying (it is explosives) and why she is putting on a hijab. All is made clear when the local newspaper (and headstone) reveals that mummy dearest was no soccer-mum but indeed a bomber-mum.

“Instead of me you carried a bomb in your hands. Only now, I know what was more precious than us . . . may your steps be blessed,” the little girl sings.

“Send greetings to our Messenger (Mohammed) and tell him: ‘Duha loves you.’ My love will not be (merely) words. I am following Mummy in her steps.”

At which point she finds some explosives her bomb-loving mum left in a drawer and picks up a stick, happily singing: “Oh Mummy, Oh Mummy.”

Don’t think this is some aberration. Abhorrent agitprop is the currency of Palestinian children’s television programming, with even cartoon characters depicting martyrdom as a highly desirable goal.

In a regular show on Hamas TV early last year, giant rabbit “Assud” replaced his brother “Nahoul” - a giant bee who had died after failing to get into hospital in Egypt for surgery.

Assud told his young audience: “We are all ready to sacrifice ourselves for the sake of our homeland. We will sacrifice our souls and everything we own for the homeland”, vowing also to “get rid of the Jews and eat them up”.

Regular viewers would recall Nahoul himself replaced “Farfour”, the Hamas mouse who was shown being “killed” on the show by an Israeli soldier in 2007.

Farfour Martyred Mouse

As the young female host Saraa Bahoum told her audience: “Yes, my dear children, we have lost our dearest friend Farfour. Farfour was martyred while defending his land, the land of his fathers and forefathers. He was martyred at the hand of criminals, the murderers, the murderers of innocent children who killed Iman Hijo, Muhammed Al-Dura and many others.”

The martyred mouse was more likely a victim of copyright lawyers who saw too close a resemblance to Disney’s Mickey Mouse but that wasn’t in the script.

The bee made that clear when he said: “I want to continue in the path of Farfour - the path of Islam, of heroism, of martyrdom, of the mujahidin. Me and my friends will follow in the footsteps of Farfour. We will take revenge upon the enemies of Allah, the killer of the prophets and of the innocent children, until we liberate Al-Aqsa from their impurity. We place our trust in Allah.”

Hamas Bee replaces Hamas Mouse

Indoctrinating children to become suicide bombers and human shields is a declared goal of Hamas, as Fathi Hamad, a representative of the terrorist organisation, proudly told the Palestine Authority Legislative Council last year.

“For the Palestinian people death became an industry at which women excel and so do all people on this land: the elderly excel, the Jihad fighters excel and the children excel,” Hamad said.

“Accordingly (Palestinians) created a human shield of women, children, the elderly and the Jihad fighters against the Zionist bombing machine, as if they were saying to the Zionist enemy: ‘We desire death as you desire life’.”

To ensure that the “death industry” doesn’t experience a slow-down, Hamas has placed its fighters in civilian homes, schools and hospitals.

It would be inhuman in the extreme not to feel sympathy for the children being used in this callous manner but it would be unintelligent not to ask why those who are exploiting them are not being called to account.

US Bloggers vent anger at former Australian PM Howard

Bloggers air Howard anger

US bloggers are up in arms over former Australian Prime Minister John Howard "bumping" president-elect Barack Obama from an official government guest house in Washington.

Mr Howard will stay at Blair House the night before he receives the US Medal of Freedom from retiring President George W Bush next week.

Mr Obama has been forced onto the Blair House waiting list until January 15 when he and his family will move in, five days before his inauguration as president.

The Obamas requested an early move-in at the 70,000-square-foot, 119-room mansion across the street from the White House, so their children could settle in to start school this week, The Washington Post reported.

But the incoming first family was told the residence had been booked out, so they took a suite at the nearby Hay-Adams Hotel.

President Bush has been the main target for criticism from bloggers to political sites.

"George couldn't make this idiot stay at the Hay-Adams?'' was one of 146 comments to The Caucus blog at the New York Times.

"Isn't Blair House big enough for everybody? Bush was just afraid nobody would pay any attention to him with Obama in the house,'' another said.

Mr Bush was accused of favouring a mate over a political rival.

"What makes it worse is that this administration is once again going out of it's way to do little favours for their friends at everyone else's detriment,'' a blogger to the Watergate Summer site said.

But not everyone was against the decision.

Jack Moss, host of The MacRanger Show on Blog Talk Radio, is defending the decision, saying President-elect Obama should wait in line like "ordinary folk''.

"Obama has done diddly squat for the country, as opposed to John Howard who supported the US and our efforts on the war on terror while Mr Obama talked down our efforts and called our troopers rapers and pillagers,'' he said."This is most fitting.''

The British broadsheet The Times reported that Britain's former prime minister Tony Blair, who is also to receive the Presidential Medal, declined an invitation to stay at Blair House because he didn't wish to be "the man who bumped Obama''.

He was expected to bed down at the British Embassy instead, The Times said.

This video is a few days old however the ending is in keeping with these neanderthal rock apes usual behavior when allowed to roam off the leash and says it all,in case you can't quiet understand their chanting, the "Religion of Peace" followers, peace mantra included the following:

that the vengeance was insufficient.”

"Hitler Didn't Do a Good Job" interesting chant coming from a follower of a Religion and cultural group that denies, the Nazi Holocaust against the Jews ever took place, so how many Jews do Muslims think Hitler should have slaughtered in world war two?

Then the Germanic races would have conquered the world.Christianity alone prevented them from doing so.”

-Hitler’s Table Talk, pg 667

" Every Jewish child now a target " HAMAS leader Mahmoud Zahar

Hamas terror: every Jewish child now a target
John Lyons, Middle East correspondent
The Australian
January 07, 2009
HAMAS leader Mahmoud Zahar has warned that Jewish children are now legitimate targets, in a bloodcurdling precursor to tanks rolling into the Islamic militant stronghold of Khan Younis yesterday.
Zahar's threat of retaliation, in his first comments since the Israeli campaign began 11 days ago, came before tanks, firing cannons and machine guns and supported by helicopter gunships, moved into the city in the southern Gaza Strip.

The pre-dawn operation to open a third front came a day after troops andHamas militants fought pitched battles in Gaza City, in the north - where four Israelis were killed by tankfire in two friendly-fire cases, and on the edges of the Deir al-Balah and Bureij refugee camps in the centre. "They have legitimised the murder of their own children by killing the children of Palestine," said Zahar, in a video recorded from his hiding place in Syria and broadcast on Hamas's al-Aqsa television. "They have legitimised the killing of their people all over the world by killing our people."

The warning, delivered late on Monday, suggested a new round of suicide bombings inside and even outside Israel to avenge the deaths of at least 159 Palestinian children, killed since the campaign to take out Hamas rocket teams began with airstrikes on December 27.

Defence Minister Ehud Barak said last night that the strip had been cut in half and that Gaza City had been surrounded. The death toll on both sides rose as diplomatic initiatives failed to make progress on halting the fighting in the enclave of 1.5million people. The incursion into Khan Younis's eastern district of Abassan al-Kabira was the first time Israeli ground forces had entered the city since they poured into the territory on Saturday night.

The armoured force was met in Khan Younis by return fire from Hamas and Islamic Jihad fighters. Artillery and airstrikes hit two UN schools in Khan Younis and Gaza City, one crowded with refugees, killing at least five people - bringing the Palestinian death toll since the campaign began to more than 580, of which the UN says a quarter are civilians.

In other pre-dawn clashes yesterday, fighting raged in the north around Jabaliya and Beit Lahiya, near Gaza City. In the eastern Gaza City district of Zeitun, a three-storey house belonging to a Hamas member with 30 people inside was destroyed by an airstrike. At least 12 people - seven of them children - were killed. They were all related. Despite the relentless air, ground and naval assault on their stronghold launched to stop rockets, a defiant Hamas continued to fire into Israel. One projectile travelled 45km, the deepest yet inside the Jewish state, lightly wounding a baby. Three others landed elsewhere without causing injuries.

Israel yesterday rejected separate ceasefire initiatives from French President Nicolas Sarkozy and the European Union, saying the 11-day offensive in Gaza was an act of self-defence that would end only when Hamas stopped firing rockets into Israel. Before a dinner with Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, Mr Sarkozy said: "We in Europe want a ceasefire as quickly as possible, and that everyone understands that time is running against peace. The guns must fallsilent." Mr Olmert told Mr Sarkozy: "The results of the operation must be ... that Hamas must not only stop firing but must no longer be able to fire. We cannot accept a compromise that will allow Hamas to fire in two months against Israeli towns."

President Shimon Peres was more blunt to the EU delegation. "Europe must open its eyes," he said. "We are not in the business of public relations or improving our image. We are fighting against terror and we have every right to defend our citizens."

The heaviest fighting so far occurred as Israeli troops clashed with Hamas fighters in the Shejaiya district of Gaza City. Palestinian medical officials say at least 110 people have died since the ground assault began, while Israel says it has killed 130 Hamas fighters. The Israeli army said three soldiers from the elite Golani Brigade were killed and 24 wounded in northern Gaza when their position was accidentally hit by Israeli tank fire. The brigade commander, Colonel Avi Peled, was lightly injured. The army said a paratroop officer was killed in northern Gaza, indicating he may have been killed by friendly fire. "The details of the event are still being investigated; however, it is suspected that a tank shell was mistakenly fired at the force," it said in a statement.
The death brought to five the number of Israeli soldiers killed since the army poured ground troops into the Hamas stronghold on Saturday.

The International Committee of the Red Cross said people were dying because ambulances could not reach them amid the fighting. A foreign doctor at a Gaza hospital, Mads Gilbert, challenged Israel's claim that Hamas fighters were being targeted, saying that by his count 801 children had been injured or killed.
Dr Gilbert told the BBC last night: "The numbers are contradictory to everything Israel says. This is the worst man-made disaster for the time I can think (of)." Mr Sarkozy had a blunt message for both sides: Israel could not allow the humanitarian situation to go on and Hamas's firing of rockets on civilians in southern Israel was "unforgiveable".

Hamas legalizes crucifixion in new "Palestinian" Sharia criminal code.

No wonder leftist progressives,Jew and Christian haters have such a love affair with Muslims and their most recent and infamous pin up boys and girls from Hamas.

I know the first thing to instantly leap into your mind is that they were knitting quilts for the oppressed cold and hungry "Palestenians" Ok they probably were, but guess what they did after they did that, ok, ok I will tell you check it out....

"Both Iran and its Hamas proxy in Gaza have been busy this Christmas week showing Christendom just what they think of it. But no one seems to have noticed.

On Tuesday, Hamas legislators marked the Christmas season by passing a Shari'a criminal code for the Palestinian Authority. Among other things,it legalizes crucifixion.

Hamas's endorsement of nailing enemies of Islam to crosses came at the same time it renewed its jihad. Here, too, Hamas wanted to make sure that Christians didn't feel neglected as its fighters launched missiles at Jewish day care centers and schools. So on Wednesday, Hamas lobbed a mortar shell at the Erez crossing point into Israel just as a group of Gazan Christians were standing on line waiting to travel to Bethlehem for Christmas."

You see why so many "beautiful caring and sharing peace loving people" are supporting Hamas ? once you understand what Hamas / Islam stands for it's hard not to support them.
I have never seen a real crucifixion however I am sure it will take a bit longer than those "blink and you miss it" decapitations that Muslims are so proud of to the tune of allah ackbar!!! with that Lawrence of Arabia type music playing in the back ground.

Crucifixion is used extensively in the Sudan by Islamic Militiamen
I am sure Hamas has been emboldened by the support it receives from its fifth column fan clubs world wide, and correctly,can see no reason why anyone would object to it's latest addition,crucifixion, to it's list of Koran endorsed atrocities given the success Islam has all over the world with the same and similar acts of depravity that fail to invoke censure.

Australia's Enviro Nazi's, peace & human rights activists, led by the aptly named Sen.Bob Brown (back door Bob?) of the Australian Greens Party, were reportedly outraged upon first hearing of the Hamas plans to crucify those who offend Islam, however after contacting the Lakemba based Hamas information office in Sydney Sen.Brown was assured that only recycled plantation grown timbers would be used to nail offenders to,and of course all nails would be recycled wherever possible.

NASA tells Barack Obama Australia is destroying earth with coal emissions

The Daily Telegraph
January 06, 2009 05:40pm

AUSTRALIA'S use of coal and carbon emissions policies are guaranteeing the "destruction of much of the life on the planet", a leading NASA scientist has written in a letter to Barack Obama.
The head of NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies, Professor James Hansen, has written an open letter to Barack Obama calling for a moratorium on coal-fired power stations and the use of next-generation nuclear power.

In the letter he says: "Australia" Australia exports coal and sets atmospheric carbon dioxide goals so large as to guarantee destruction of much of the life on the planet."

Prof Hansen said goals and caps on carbon emissions were practically worthless because of the long lifetime of carbon dioxide in the air.

“Instead a large part of the total fossil fuels must be left in the ground. In practice, that means coal,” he wrote.

“Nobody realistically expects that the large readily available pools of oil and gas will be left in the ground.”

Prof Hansen said that emissions reduction targets, like Kevin Rudd’s goal to cut emissions by a minimum of 5 per cent and up to 15 per cent by 2020, do not work.

“This approach is ineffectual and not commensurate with the climate threat,” he wrote of reduction plans.

“It could waste another decade, locking in disastrous consequences for our planet and humanity.”

Professor Hansen also works in the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences at Columbia University and has given testimony on climate change to the US Congress.

He said he wrote to Mr Obama as the incoming US president is in a position to instigate global change and "his presidency may be judged in good part on whether he was able to turn the tide (on climate change) - more important, the futures of young people and other life will depend on that".

He called for the end of coal plants that do not capture and store carbon dioxide and for funding for "fourth generation" nuclear power plants that could run on material now regarded as waste.

Comment is being sought from climate change minister Penny Wong.

Australia's only hope it seems, could be in our very own Minister for Village Idiocy, aka the Minister for Climate Change, Mrs Penny Wong, immediately commandeering Kevin 07's personal wind powered environmentally friendly turbo charged Penny Farthing and leaving for the White House to seek a personal audience with the incoming "warmist in chief" and former "community organizer" to assure him that Kevin 07 has promised to drag Australia back to the dark ages with enviro TAXES and abolition of the middle class and aspirational Australians,and that hopefully most of us will simply starve to death in the dark before anyone notices, Pol Pot's year zero if you like,implemented by the Australian Labor Party's most caring and sharing environmentally friendly Green storm troopers and enviro Nazi's (definitely no plastic bags will be used in the culling process)

Pres.GWBush to award former PM Howard US Presidential Freedom Medal

Bush gives Howard US Presidential Freedom Medal

The Daily Telegraph
January 06, 2009 08:30am

FORMER prime minister John Howard will receive the US Presidential Medal of Freedom at a White House ceremony next week.

The award is said to be the highest civilian honour bestowed by a United States president.

Mr Howard is being honoured for his role in fighting terrorism and for standing by the US as an ally during his 11 years as prime minister.


The award also recognises the extremely close relationship that developed between Mr Howard and President Bush who dubbed the former Australian PM as a man of steel.

"Yes, I am honoured by it, more because of the compliment it pays to our country Australia," Mr Howard told ABC Radio.

"It's an indication of the very close relationship between our two countries and I'm very pleased that during the time as prime minister I was able to contribute too."

It was testament to the "very obvious" personal warmth between himself and President George W Bush.

Former British prime minister Tony Blair and Columbia's president Alvaro Uribe will also receive medals in the ceremony.

Mr Bush has awarded 78 of the medals during his two terms as US president.

Bush is conferring the prestigious award on his friends in an East Room ceremony on January 13 - exactly one week before he leaves office, White House press secretary Dana Perino said on Monday.

"The president is honouring these leaders for their work to improve the lives of their citizens and for their efforts to promote democracy, human rights and peace abroad," she said. "All three leaders have been staunch allies of the United States, particularly in combating terrorism."

The Medal of Freedom was established by President Harry Truman in 1945 to recognise civilians for their efforts during World War II.

My Favorite Bush Howard pic.

The award was reinstated by President John F Kennedy in 1963 to honour distinguished service. It is given to those deemed to have made remarkable contributions to the security or national interests of the United States, world peace, culture, or other private or public endeavours.

Prior to these three leaders, Bush has awarded 78 medals during his tenure in office.

Among the most controversial came in December 2004, when Bush gave the Presidential Medal of Freedom to former CIA Director George Tenet, former Iraq administrator L Paul Bremer and retired General Tommy Franks, three people central to his early policy in
Iraq.
Bush was especially criticised for including on the list Tenet, who came under fire for intelligence failures leading up to the September 11, 2001, attacks and the Iraq war

Lawyer,Mohammed Masri 's "12 year old boy "client pleads not guilty to Jambaroo Action Park sex assault charges.

Boy, 12, on sex assault charge at Jamberoo Action Park

By David Barrett
The Daily Telegraph
January 06, 2009 12:00am

DRESSED smartly, this 12-year-old strode from the courthouse yesterday having pleaded not guilty to the sexual assault of a girl aged just 15 years.

After first covering his head with a piece of paper, the boy confidently revealed his face - and smirked for the camera. The youth, who can not be identified, faces one charge of aggravated sexual assault after an incident during a school excursion last month.

"Middle Eastern" aka. "The Usual suspects" charged with Rape at Sydney theme park.

Police allege the youth used his hand to assault the 15-year-old high school student from the Illawarra area in a swimming pool at Jamberoo Action Park. A second youth, aged 15, has also been charged with aggravated sexual assault after allegedly attacking the same girl.

The older youth also faces one aggravated indecent assault charge against a second girl whose backside he allegedly "groped . . . under her costume". Yesterday, both boys pleaded not guilty to the charges at Port Kembla Children's Court.

They sat silently in the court, dressed in business shirts and pants and supported by their fathers. The 12-year-old boy's lawyer, Mohammed Masri, told the court his client would need to have his bail conditions changed before returning to school. "My client will be recommencing the school year in February, so I'm instructed to ask to have his reporting conditions changed," he said.
Children's Magistrate Graham Blewitt ordered the youths to report to police every Monday.

Manager of the NSW Rape Crisis Centre, Karen Willis, said yesterday that juvenile victims of sexual assault suffered similar trauma to adult victims. "Trauma is trauma - it really doesn't matter what the age is," she told The Daily Telegraph.

Friday 12 Dec.2008

"Sexual assault always has an impact, with victims experiencing fear, anger or a form of hypertension. "There are always special circumstances but it doesn't matter if you are young or old. "We all experience trauma in much the same way." Police arrested the pair after stopping their school bus at Mount Ousley as it returned from Jamberoo.

The boys, both of Middle Eastern descent, are students at a high school in Sydney's west. Police arrested three other youths on the bus, but they were released without charge.

Ms Willis said most sex offenders began their crimes between the ages of 15 and 17 years. She added that victims of sexual assault could recover from trauma with the right support from family and solid counselling. "It's not a death sentence - recovery can, and does, happen," she said. "But we should never underestimate the impact of sexual assault." Mr Blewitt adjourned the matter to the same court on February 16.
