AT least three people were killed and churches and mosques were set ablaze in the eastern Nigerian city of Bauchi today, close to where clashes between religious gangs killed hundreds of people last November.
"A number of churches and mosques have been burned and at least three people killed and seven injured," a Nigerian Red Cross official said.
Clashes between Muslim and Christian gangs provoked by a disputed election killed hundreds of people in Jos, capital of neighbouring Plateau state, in November, the worst unrest in Africa's most populous nation for several years.
A spokesman for the governor of Plateau state said the security forces were on high alert.
"We have placed security here in Jos on red alert. We want to forestall any eventuality here," Dan Manjang said, adding the situation was calm.
Nigerian Christians appear to have decided to speak the language of the buyer, in other words reply in kind to their Islamic oppressors .

Rape penalities increased in Italy following Immigrant Rape rampage
Italy toughens penalties for rape after attacks
News.com.au
February 21, 2009 12:37am
ITALY'S government rushed through a decree law today toughening penalties for sex offenders and permitting neighbourhood citizen patrols after a spate of high-profile rapes by immigrants sparked national outrage.
Italy's government says data show the number of sexual assaults actually fell last year, but three rapes last weekend in Rome, Milan and Bologna triggered a media frenzy that prompted calls for tougher measures.
The decree approved by Italy's cabinet sets a mandatory life sentence for rapes that result in death, speeds up trials for sex offenders caught in the act, takes away the possibility of house arrest, and gives free legal assistance to victims.
The decree also introduces mandatory life sentences for rapes of minors. It goes into effect immediately but must be approved by both houses of parliament within 60 days. It also establishes rules for citizen street patrols by unarmed and unpaid volunteers. The move came after groups of self-styled and unregulated vigilantes began patrolling some towns, alarming law enforcement officials.
"This is what was needed. I have to wake up at five in the morning to accompany my daughter to the train station because the streets are not safe," a resident of Guidonia, a town east of Rome with a large immigrant population, said.
Mayors will be able to approve citizen patrols, with priority given to membership or leadership roles by retired police and military on leave.
Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi earlier said the number of sexual assaults fell 10 per cent last year compared to 2006 and 2007, which he said showed the government's efforts to improve security were working.
But many Italians are unconvinced, with recent rapes grabbing headlines in newspapers and television, often playing up the role of foreigners as perpetrators.
Some lawmakers have also reopened the debate over whether chemical castration of sex offenders should be instituted.
"There's a rape every 12 hours, every 24 hours, and it's time to end this," another resident of Guidonia, where a group of Romanians
last month raped a woman and beat her boyfriend, said.

Israeli TV Mocks Jesus Christ , Blessed Virgin Mary
Catholics outraged over Israeli TV spoof
News.com.au
February 20, 2009 09:54pm
CATHOLIC bishops in the Holy Land have expressed outrage over what they call "repulsive attacks" on Jesus Christ and the Virgin Mary after an Israeli TV program spoofed them.
"We, the members of the Assembly of the Catholic Bishops in the Holy Land deplore and condemn with utter dismay the repulsive attacks on our lord Jesus Christ and on his mother, the blessed Virgin Mary, carried out on Channel 10 of the Israeli television," the group said in a statement.
Earlier this week, the private channel broadcast a series of skits, one of which suggested the Virgin Mary "was impregnated at the age of 15 by a school friend."
Another said Jesus died at a young age "because he was fat" and that his excess weight would have made it impossible for him to walk on water.
In the program, Israeli comedian Yair Shlein joked that since Christians "deny the Holocaust, then I want to deny Christianity."
Following protests, he later apologised to Arab Israeli Christian dignitaries.
The bishops said they viewed "this recent incident in the larger context of continuous attacks against Christians throughout Israel over the years" and urged authorities to launch an investigation.
"It is unconceivable that such incidents have to occur in Israel which hosts some of the holiest shrines of Christianity," said the statement, signed by the Latin patriach of Jerusalem as well as Armenian, Chaldean, Greek, Maronite and Syrian Catholic bishops.
Uneasy relations between the Vatican and Israel have been further strained a by Pope Benedict XVI's recent decision to lift the excommunication of Holocaust-denying English Bishop Richard Williamson.
The pontiff is scheduled to visit Israel in May.
I guess when you have as many friends in the world as Israel does you can afford to shit down the throats of those who are most likely (Christians) to support Israel in their fight against the planed Islamic Holocaust eg that promised by Iran for instance, great work Channel 10 Israel, talk about PR.

Killing Spree continues Australian Greens and Labor : First Victoria now New South Wales
Australia: 200+ Burnt to death in Victoria, a million plus native animals dead, New South Wales citizens and wildlife now a target of Labor and their Green Loon preference sluts "environmental policies"
What a flaming disgrace - half of NSW's burnoffs cancelled
EXCLUSIVE by Gemma Jones
The Daily Telegraph
February 19, 2009 12:00am
A DECISION to cancel almost half the burn-offs planned for NSW bushfire zones has put thousands of lives and properties in danger.
Frustrated volunteer firefighters yesterday lashed out at bureaucrats and greenies for preventing them from protecting communities.In one outrageous case, a woman was told by the State Government her fire escape route would remain an overgrown mess because it was a corridor for native flora and fauna.
More than 2100 hazard reduction operations planned by the Rural Fire Service were abandoned last year, the organisation's annual report reveals.
Editorial: Trees grow back and we die
Deputy Captain George Bennett said firefighters were so frustrated by bureaucratic hurdles they were finding legal ways to complete small burns "undercover" on private property.
He said it took some brigades 12 months to gain approval for hazard reductions. The RFS admitted one burn-off on Mona Vale Rd in Sydney recently took several years to be approved.
"There is very little hazard reduction happening because of the bureaucratic processes, quite often it gets to the stage where brigades don't do it because of the paperwork," Mr Bennett said.
"We have got a very, very dangerous situation looming here. There are no areas you could use for fire containment, we have got a situation where there is an enormous build-up of fuel.
"It will be frightening if we get harsh conditions in October. There is the potential for loss of life and property."
A firefighter from a brigade in northern NSW, who declined to be named, said his firefighters had stopped asking to do burns: "We don't bother doing it any more, it takes up to 12 months, you are only allowed to go and put fires out."

Hillary Clinton taps Indonesia for leading role in new US vision
News.com.au
February 18, 2009 11:41pm
US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has tapped Indonesia - as a democratic and mainly Muslim country - for a key role in the new US administration's foreign policy.
"Building a comprehensive partnership with Indonesia is a critical step on behalf of the United States' commitment to smart power," she told a press conference alongside Indonesian Foreign Minister Hassan Wirajuda.
She said it was important "to listen as well as talk to those around the world, to support a country that has demonstrated so clearly that Islam, democracy and modernity cannot only coexist but thrive together".
In her first visit to a Muslim country as secretary of state, she said President Barack Obama's administration "wants to reach out to the entire world" and Indonesia would be an important partner in that effort.
"Certainly Indonesia, being the largest Muslim nation in the world, the third-largest democracy, will play a leading role in the promotion of that shared future," she said.
"So we are looking forward to deepening our cooperation on a number of shared issues," she added, referring to areas such as the global economy, climate change, security and human rights.
Mr Wirajuda said Indonesia - where Mr Obama went to primary school for a few years in the late 1960s - looked forward to US support as the countries of the region seek to shape a "new architecture" of diplomacy in Asia-Pacific.
Mrs Clinton later met leaders of the Jakarta-based Association of South-East Asian Nations - a 10-nation bloc comprising around 500 million people.
She will meet Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono tomorrow before completing her four-nation trip through Asia - her first outing as secretary of state - with visits to South Korea and China.
I am an Australian, I cannot tell you Guys in the USA how comforting it is to know that Hillary Clinton is appeasing, sucking up to Obama's former masters, Australia's biggest security threat Indonesia, the worlds largest (radical) Islamic population.
President G W Bush was far from perfect (and what endeared me more to the man was the fact that he would be the first to agree with me on that point) I knew that he had a commonality of interests and purpose with my country, as had been the case for over a hundred years between our two nations. Australia is the only nation to have fought side by side with the United States in every major conflict that the USA has required help of her friends there is no other nation that can lay claim to that fact.
"That bravery breeds affection in America for another reason as well. Australia is the only country that has fought with the United States in every one of its major conflicts since 1914, the good and the bad, the winning and the losing."
Charles Krauthammer "Why I love Australia"
The Goose that is now in the office of the Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd is an Obama apologist and groupie par excellence,and sided with Obama attacking the previous PM John Howard at every opportunity prior to his election to the office of Australian Prime Minister and before the election of the now President Barack Obama.

Islams Roll of Diss Honour or how Islam protects women
Australian men and women, these girls / women could well be your own daughters and grand daughters in the not too distant future in Australia.
These acts of "cultural diversity" as the Labor Party and the Leftists apologists for Islam would prefer they be described as, have already taken place on Australian soil,but for "cultural & Religious sensitivity" reasons, were not given the publicity they deserved by the politically correct Australian media.
Australians are well aware of the Islamic Gang Rape Gangs who were able to go about their Godless activities unhindered by the NSW Police under orders of the then NSW Labor Government so as not to create any bad publicity before the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games and show up the failed policy of the ALP's Multiculturalism at all cost's.
Police estimate that over 100 young "Aussie Sluts" "Aussie Pigs" Australian girls were gang raped by roaming packs of Muslim youths, aka, brave son's of Allah.

Pakistan falls to Sharia Law (or it's now official")
Smith announces more Pakistani troops

Updated: 17:48,
Tuesday February 17, 2009
Australian foreign minister Stephen Smith has announced a four-fold increase in the numbers of Pakistani government military officers to be trained in Australia.
Speaking at the beginning of a three-day visit to Pakistan, Smith said the decision would 'raise the numbers to 40 to 50 officers'.
With around 1,100 Australian troops already stationed in neighbouring Afghanistan, Smith also said Australia was ready to respond positively if the US asked it to provide more troops to stabilise the situation in Afghanistan.
Smith's visit came as the government in Pakistan's North West Frontier Province (NWFP) signed an agreement with the radical cleric Maulana Sufi Mohammad.
Mohammad is a supporter of the pro-Taliban militants fighting for the enforcement of Islamic Sharia law in Swat, located just 160km from Islamabad.
Under the deal, the government will set up Islamic courts to provide speedy justice to people and end security operations in the region.
Smith, the first Australian foreign minister to visit Pakistan in a decade, welcomed the deal.
'It is a positive development and we hope for a positive outcome,' he told a joint press conference with Pakistan's Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi.
Smith also flew to the NWFP's provincial capital Peshawar and Khyber pass, the historic border crossing between Pakistan and Afghanistan.
More than 120,000 Pakistani troops are fighting Taliban and al-Qaeda fighters entrenched in its lawless tribal area bordering Afghanistan. They have suffered hundreds of casualties while fighting insurgents.
Smith also said military enforcement was not enough to fight terrorism and it was important to build the capacity of the civilian government and engage moderate elements through political dialogue.
Qureshi said: 'The war against terror could not be won by military means alone and that a multi-pronged strategy was required to root out the causes of terrorism and win the hearts and minds of the people.'

These little guys are just some of the survivors.
Caution some viewers may be upset by the scenes.
These Australian Native animals, along with hundreds of domestic pets burnt to death, as a direct result of policies implemented by the Greens, supported and facilitated by the Victorian Labor Party, in exchange for preferences at Federal,State and Local Government elections.
Prime Minister Kevin Rudd may become struck dumb and cry like a school girl when confronted by the Greens and his party's handiwork whenever a TV camera crew just happens to pass by for an ad lib show of grief, however when all the hand ringing, and instant gratifcationilist's are finished with their public displays of grief, and it's suddenly business as usual for the Godless Earth worshiping bastards and crystal gazers who caused so much death, destruction and misery,I for one will remember who is responsible, and will do all in my power to make it known who, at every opportunity is responsible.
I have personally survived one of these cataclysmic Bush Fires in 1994, caused by the same insane GREEN LOONS and followed by the same Labor RAT BAGS and Socialist spives spewing their offers of an inquiry or a Royal Commission , all designed to divert the victims away from seeing who really caused their misery and the deaths of their loved ones, the arsonists, the Greens and their facilitators the Australian Labor Party,now materialise as the Fire Fighters, aka the Greens / Environmentalists and their Labor Party patrons aided by their MSM lick spittle lackey's delivering various grandiose sermons from the mount, about a new beginning in the management of the environment and how communities interact with the environment in a bio diverse non threatening way, and any other piece of International Socialist / Greens Environmentalist crap that they can dribble from their lower lip.
I have seen it all before, like many, many Australians, I have LIVED what these LOON earth worshiping assassins deny ever existed.
100 years ago the followers and supporters of the Greens and Environmentalist aka Junk Science, would have been herded into the back paddock of humanity so as to ensure they were unable to contaminate the gene pool, after been observed, so as to ensure that the members of this herd were all of the same mind set,this herd of Green LOONS would have been driven off the nearest cliff top so as to ensure the survival of the majority aka their intended victims.
The Manifestations of Greens Junk Science are the Victorian Bush Fires, Kevin 07, Please take note after you take the onion out of your handkerchief and your "tears" dry up and your voice returns.
Bushfire death toll climbs to 189

THE gruesome reality of the search through the rubble of Victoria's bushfires has become clearer as police admit it is difficult to determine whether remains come from one person, or even if they are human.
Police today announced the death toll from the savage fires had risen to 189, only eight more than their last update on Thursday, and would continue to rise.
The revised toll included 40 from the hamlet of Strathewen from its population of 200, while 36 have so far been confirmed dead in
Marysville which is expected to lose 100 of its 500 residents.
While 10 more victims were identified in Strathewen and 21 more in Marsyville, the number of dead has gone down in some areas after remains were fully identified.
The toll in the Churchill fire in Gippsland dropped from 21 to 10.
"In some cases what we are dealing with is just bones. It may be that we've initially thought that was more than one body, but when it has gone to the coroner, they have confirmed it is actually one," a police spokeswoman said.
Huge task
Emergency Services Commissioner Bruce Esplin defended the delay in issuing the latest update, saying that identification of remains was complex and difficult.
The most important thing was that families of the missing were given correct information, Mr Esplin said.
"The sensitivity is to get it right," he said.
"It's a huge task and it's a hugely sensitive task for the police, fire services and the defence force that are supporting them in recovering remains and appropriately identifying remains.
"And it's most important that the families get the right information and they get that information correctly, that there are no mistakes made."
Focus on Marysville
Victoria Police Deputy Commissioner Kieran Walshe said some remains found may never be identified due to the extensive injuries caused by the fire, which will make it tough to know the exact death toll.
"Fire causes extensive disfigurement to bodies. Fire causes extensive damage, and it is a very difficult process in some cases to actually determine whether the remains are human remains," he said.
Mr Walshe said the search for victims in open spaces had finished and authorities were now searching burned-out homes for bodies.
He said authorities were now concentrating on searching buildings in the Marysville area.
"We know the numbers will grow ... as to what the number is going to get to, I just think we should await and let it unfold over the next week or 10 days," Mr Walshe said.
The figure also included 128 victims from the Kinglake complex fire, including 33 from the town of Kinglake itself and 20 from Steels Creek.
The death toll in the Gippsland town of Callignee dropped from 12 to four.
Two deaths have been recorded from Mudgegonga near Beechworth, one at Bendigo and five have died in hospital.
Mr Walshe said it would still be at least a week until some bushfire-hit roads were open to traffic.
"Marysville we know we will not be able to open up that area for probably another 10-14 days," he said.
His comments came the same day court action began against 39-year-old Brendan Sokaluk, from the Gippsland town of Churchill, who is accused of starting the Churchill fire.
Sokaluk did not appear in court, and was remanded in custody to appear at a committal mention on May 26.
He has been charged with one count of arson causing death, one count of intentionally lighting a bushfire and one count of possessing child pornography.
The arson charge carries a maximum penalty of 25 years, with the bushfire charge carrying a maximum penalty of 15 years.
Calm weather on Monday again helped firefighters put in containment lines around the five fires still burning in Victoria.
Department of Sustainability and Environment spokesman Stuart Ord said containment lines surrounded 85 per cent of the Kinglake Murrindindi Complex, while the Bunyip and Beechworth fires were also close to being contained.
Bulldozing work was undertaken near the water catchment areas near Healesville and the Wilson's Promontory fire was still running, but not threatening communities.
Good conditions are forecast for the next two days.

Australian Bush Fires: See what Islamists "took joy " in
Jihadists revel in our misery

JIHADISTS are celebrating the worst tragedy in Victoria's history.
Terror watchdogs said fundamentalists had blogged on websites across the globe, applauding the lives lost and destruction.
Senior analyst at SITE Intelligence Group Adam Raisman said they were posting pictures of burnt homes and devastated victims and"taking joy in the scenes".
One jihadist wrote: "It would be an act of revenge for Australian's participation in the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq."
Bushfires victims said they were stunned.
What warms the heart of a "Good Muslim" see the video below.
"We're minding our own business and trying to cope with all this and they are celebrating our suffering," said Denise McCann who lost her home in the Kinglake blaze.
Regional Islamic Council vice-president Dr Ameer Ali said the comments did not represent the wider Muslim community.
"They have no idea what they are talking about," he said.
I found the apologists for Islam writing to the letters to the editor at the Herald Sun
true to form eg
"This is an unnecessary and dangerously incendiary article. How stupid and pointless to stir up anti-Muslim sentiment at a time when emotions are running high and there's so much good will and community support to be celebrated." Posted by: Deborah Bartlett Pitt 9:53am today
Dont ya just luv em? If only people would not tell us what Islam is and does they wont hurt us.
Eight victims of the Victoria fires found huddled around baby's body

DISASTER victim identification teams combing Victoria have found large groups of bodies, including one with eight bodies huddled to protect a baby.
Australians have been warned to brace for more bad news on bushfire death as more shocking details of the Victoria fires are revealed.
DVI experts are still combing the worst-affected areas and Detective Inspector Bob Sitlington said patience was needed to enable accurate records of victims to be collected, The Courier Mail reported.
"It is slow but we want to positively identify victims, the last thing we would want to do is misidentify," he said.
Insp Sitlington said he had been with team members in Kinglake yesterday, where earlier in the week experts found horrific scenes, including eight bodies huddled around a baby's body.
"There was a multiple death in a group, and from what I understand they were trying to protect a baby," he said.
"We prayed as a Family and said our good bye's.......he said to me, Marice ...I am sorry baby, I thought we were safe...................'

Sorry,Allah,nothing for you or your Muslim followers to smile about in this video.
"We don't know exactly what happened. Imagine what people naturally do, they tend to cuddle ... and to protect each other, and with the intensity of the fire we do find sometimes bodies are fused together."
The total death toll from the blazes that ripped through the central highlands and Gippsland last Saturday still stands at 181.
The Victorian Coroner is prepared for as many as 300 bodies, Police Commissioner Christine Nixon said.
On Friday, police said 1831 houses had been destroyed and more than 7000 people had been made homeless.
A 39-year-old man has been charged in relation to the Churchill fire in south Gippsland which killed 21 people.
Asbestos is causing problems for victim identification teams and residents have been warned about going through suspicious areas of their homes.
All residents also have been given gloves and masks for safety.
Insp Sitlington said teams were doing their best in difficult circumstances.
"Having 1800 houses, all those deceased that were found in cars or in the open have been dealt with, and now it's a slower way of moving around," he said.
