I support "the right of return" for all Muslims to what ever country it was they or the parents / grand parents ran away from, where all the Religious and social structures that they demand be imposed on Australian society are already in place... it's a win win as we say.

Bridging the gaps

A new resource aims to help teachers develop better relationships with their Muslim students, writes Blanche Clark.
Research shows teachers are uncomfortable dealing with many issues that involve Muslim students.
It might be debates over the hijab, exclusion from swimming lessons or concern about young students fasting during Ramadan.
Prof Shahram Akbarzadeh, of the University of Melbourne, realised teachers needed guidance and applied to the Myer Foundation for a grant to run professional learning workshops.
Educator Jennet Cole-Adams and Muslim education expert Dr Eeqbal Hassim, who delivered the workshops in Melbourne and Sydney last year, soon discovered that teachers were encountering a wide range of dilemmas.
Their new resource, Learning From One Another, uses this information to educate teachers about Muslim beliefs and culture and provide ideas for lessons.
The director of curriculum services at the Australian Curriculum Studies Association (ACSA), Cole-Adams says the lesson plans are designed to benefit all students.
"Our suggestions for how you can incorporate this are aimed to benefit all students and to nurture relationships between Muslim and non-Muslim students by making non-Muslim students more aware of the history and contemporary situations," she says.
"The resource covers things such as learning about the tessellating tiles of Alhambra in Spain and the Afghan cameleers, and the contribution of Muslim scholars to science."
Hassim says: "We emphasise in the workshop that we think appreciating different perspectives and managing diverse opinions is a skill that kids need to develop at school."
Hassim says teachers need to find common ground, rather than give Muslims special treatment.
"We don't want schools to compromise on their stance and what they believe in," he says.
"If schools are trying to bend backwards to please Muslims and their students, then this might be a situation of compromise and that may be counterproductive, because it might emphasise that Muslims are very different . . . which may not necessarily be true for the vast majority of Muslims."
He says the book doesn't present Islam as if it is one opinion or one interpretation.
"Rather we try to provide as many different examples of various opinions, so teachers can pick and choose what applies to their situation," he says.
Cole-Adams says there are no ready answers.
"In some ways it will be a bit frustrating for teachers because they will think, 'How am I going to deal with the fact that one student won't go on school camp?' and we offer some reasons, but there are no answers or solutions that can be guaranteed."
Hassim says during the fasting month of Ramadan, many Muslim students don't take part in physical education. But rather than sending students to the library, Hassim suggests teachers get the students involved in the planning or running of the lesson.
In regards to sex education, he says teachers need to explain why it's important to the parents.
"Often parents say, 'We don't want this because we are Muslims and we don't like how it's taught', and that's where it stops. It's about going one step further and talking to them about it," Hassim says.
Victorian teachers are invited to register for a free workshop on June 2, 9am-2.30pm, Yasuko Hiraoka Myer Room, Level 1, Sidney Myer Asia Centre, University of Melbourne. For details about the workshop or the resource, Learning From One Another, contact ACSA, ph: (02) 6260 5660 or email acsa@acsa.edu.au
What a shame all that time and money, was not used to educate Muslims on how to behave in a Western Democracy and what their obligations to Australia are and what is expected of them by their host country.
How many more examples of the total incompatibility the Islamic mindset has with western democracy and civilization are Muslims and their leftist cheer squads going to present to the Australian people?
I support "the right of return" for all Muslims to what ever country it was they or the parents / grand parents ran away from, where all the Religious and social structures that they demand be imposed on Australian society are already in place... it's a win win as we say.

Quiet search for housing for asylum seekers
SMH
YUKO NARUSHIMA IMMIGRATION CORRESPONDENT
May 19, 2010
THE federal government is asking church groups for access to private properties to house asylum seekers spilling over from Christmas Island.
Immigration officials have spent recent weeks quietly phoning churches, asking them to nominate convents, monasteries and boarding houses where at
least 100 children and families might stay.
The government has already expanded Christmas Island detention centre and last month began moving people without visas to detention in Darwin and
Port Augusta.
Any extra accommodation is intended to supplement hotels and motels, such as the Palms International in Brisbane, which reportedly won a government
contract of more than $1 million to house asylum seekers.
The province leader of the Christian Brothers, Vince Duggan, confirmed the search for more accommodation on the mainland was under way. ''I know
approaches have been made to some bodies,'' the Brisbane cleric said. ''The request was made for 100 places.''
It is understood officials were making the calls as recently as last week, seeking places for families and unaccompanied minors, who sailed to Australia
without parents.
In Sydney, the Josephites' Sister Kathleen O'Connor was also aware of verbal requests from the Immigration Department. She said the government was
putting out feelers quietly to avoid further politicising refugee issues.
''It's done quietly,'' she said. ''[Asylum seekers have] just become this political football.''
More than 90 per cent of boat arrivals to Australia in 2009 were eventually found to be refugees. However, prolonged detention in faraway places
hampered their ability to settle into the community because of increased stress and exacerbated trauma, Sr O'Connor said.
According to the Immigration Department, efforts to quietly find more accommodation were part of ''prudent'' planning.
A spokesman reiterated the government policy pledging to keep children and families out of high-security detention centres.
''[The Department of Immigration and Citizenship] has been investigating a range of private properties around Australia - including some owned by
churches - as potential additional accommodation options for families and children should the need arise,'' he said.
''This may provide an alternative and more suitable accommodation option to the use of motels or serviced apartments.''
The Immigration Minister, Chris Evans, declined to comment.
The opposition said the government's failed policies had forced it into ''billeting'' asylum seekers. Its immigration spokesman, Scott Morrison, said boat
arrivals were unaffected by the freeze on refugee claims from Sri Lanka and Afghanistan.
''I have no doubt that Christian churches will respond generously, which is their nature,'' he said. ''But we have always had the view that offshore
processing should be universal and that is our preference.''
More than 120 unauthorised boats have arrived in Australia in the 30 months since the Rudd government came to power.
Mr Morrison said the Howard government first took children out of detention. There were facilities on Christmas Island to cater for families - but these
were now full.
Blind ideology is dancing on the grave of reason
Melanie Phillips
The Australian

IN Britain, the benefits of diversity are apparently boundless. Now that the Pagan Police Association has received government recognition, police officers can take a string of pagan festivals as official holidays.
These include celebrating the festival of lactating sheep, and drinking mead and dancing naked to celebrate the harvest. In court, pagan officers will be allowed to pledge to tell the truth not before God but by what "they hold sacred", including, presumably, the Sun God or Kriss Kringle, the Germanic god of yule.
In Australia, as historian Keith Windschuttle has chronicled in his new book The Stolen Generations - volume three of his tireless evisceration of The Fabrication of Aboriginal History - the allegedly monstrous theft of 100,000 Aboriginal children by Australian officials just because they were Aboriginal never actually happened.
In the US, when a car bomb was planted recently in New York's Times Square by a man later revealed to be a Muslim trained in bomb-making in Pakistan's Waziristan region, there was an initial stampede to declare the attempted atrocity was unconnected to Islamic terrorism.
It was said to be most likely the work of a Tea Party member, right-wing militiaman or lone nut. New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg even suggested the bomb could have been placed by "somebody with a political agenda who doesn't like the healthcare bill or something".
What has Britain come to when its police officers are given leave to dance about naked? How can generations of Australians have been taught the egregious falsehood of the Stolen Generations as fact? And how many times have Tea Party members or people opposed to a piece of legislation tried to commit mass murder against their fellow Americans, compared with the number of recent attempts by Muslim terrorists?
Such intellectual perversity can be understood only in the context of a far wider and profound retreat from reason throughout the West.
Across a broad range of issues, the progressive intelligentsia appears to have junked the rules of evidence, objectivity and rationality in favour of fantasy, irrationality and upside-down thinking.
Take man-made global warming, for example.
The belief that the planet is on course for carbon Armageddon is now embedded in Western politics. Yet the evidence that the climate is warming to an unprecedented and catastrophic degree just isn't there. The seas are not rising, the ice is not shrinking, the polar bears are not vanishing, and there has been no significant climate warming since 1995.
Or take the Middle East. Israel is the victim of six decades of exterminatory aggression from the Arab and Muslim world. Yet it is Israel that is expected to make concessions to its attackers, who are said by the West to deserve a state of their own. Meanwhile, the US extends its hand of friendship to Iran, which is building a nuclear bomb to commit another Jewish genocide.
Closer to home, "minority rights" mean activities previously marginalised or considered transgressive are now privileged through "family lifestyle choice" or multiculturalism.
Dissenters from these creeds are socially and professionally ostracised. Academics are hounded as racists for upholding the true historic origins of Western civilisation. Scientists sceptical of man-made global warming find funding is withheld. And those sounding the alarm about the true scope of the Islamic jihad are demonised as warmongering neo-cons or part of a Jewish conspiracy.
Such irrationality, intolerance and, indeed, bigotry run counter to the cardinal tenets of a free society based on reason and the toleration of dissent.
This is because these dominant ideas are all rooted in ideologies: environmentalism, anti-racism, anti-Americanism, anti-imperialism, anti-Zionism, egalitarianism or scientism, the belief that scientific materialism alone explains everything.
Rather than going where the evidence leads, ideology wrenches the evidence to fit a prior idea. Not only is ideology inimical to reason, it sacrifices truth to power as it attacks those who try to uphold reality in the face of dogma.
This is because the progressive mindset believes it is synonymous with virtue itself. All opposition is therefore not just wrong but evil. Since progressives also believe anyone who opposes them is a right-winger, it follows that all dissent is right-wing and evil, and so must be shut down.
In other words, these are not propositions to be debated in a rational way but are seen as self-evident truths with the infallibility of religious dogma.
They also smack of the political totalitarianism of communism and fascism, as well as resembling, ironically, the fanatical doctrines of militant Islam. Curiously, they also display religious motifs of sin, guilt and salvation. Odder still, they all exhibit features of millenarianism: the religious belief in the perfectibility of life through the collective redemption of sin. Contemporary secular ideologies identify the sins committed by humanity - oppression of the people of developing nations, despoliation of nature, bigotry, poverty, war - and offer salvation by a return to righteousness.
Thus the greens believe they will save the planet. The leftists believe they will create the brotherhood of man. The anti-Zionists believe they will turn suicide bomb-belts into cucumber frames. The atheists believe they will create the Garden of Reason. And the Islamists believe they
will create the kingdom of God on earth.
Dissenters are dismissed because they deny the unchallengeable truths of anti-imperialism, environmentalism and scientific materialism. The explanation for the frustration of Utopia must therefore lie in conspiracies by the neo-cons or the Jews, Big Oil or the creationists.
The result is not merely that the West has become irrational. By turning truth and lies, victim and aggressor, justice and injustice upside down, it cannot even recognise, let alone deal with, the threats being mounted to its own values and civilisation.
With ideology eroding the principles of rationality and freedom, truth and justice on which it rests, the West is failing to understand what it is that it cannot understand, and so cannot grasp the mortal danger in which it stands.

U.N. group seeks control of Internet
By John Zarocostas
THE WASHINGTON TIMES
Published November 18, 2003
________________________________________
GENEVA -- Governments spearheaded by China, Brazil, India, Russia and Saudi Arabia are trying to place the Internet under the control of the United Nations or its member governments, a move that the United States and other developed countries are determined to resist.
The issue has cropped up in preparatory talks for a world summit on the information society to be held from Dec. 10 to 12 in Geneva, with the stated goal of advancing the management and worldwide use of the Internet, especially in poorer nations.
Delegates from rich and developing nations remained divided on the matter at the end of the latest round of talks on Friday, senior diplomats said.
"We will continue to fight hard to ensure that Internet governance remains a balanced enterprise among all stakeholders and continues to be private-sector-led," said the chief of the U.S. delegation, Ambassador David A. Gross.
Pierre Gagne, executive director of the world summit, earlier identified control of the Internet as one of two key issues in the talks, adding that control and financial issues "will probably be the last issues to be resolved" at the summit.
Many developing countries argue that governments need to play a greater role in managing and setting policy for the Internet, while the United States, the European Union and Japan, among others, say government interference could stifle the development of the dynamic medium.
The Internet, at present, is loosely managed by a private organization in California named the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, which coordinates such matters as Internet servers and domain names.
Countries with developing and emerging economies would like to hand over that authority to a U.N. agency, such as the International Telecommunications Union (ITU).
The Internet medium is too important to be left in the hands of one major power, some argue, and others say problems such as cybercrime and protection of intellectual property rights require greater government involvement.
Yoshio Utsumi, secretary-general of the ITU, which will host the December summit, said in an interview that Brazil is "a very strong advocate" of his agency taking over the Internet.
China, Russia, India, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Senegal and many other African countries were also "keen" for the United Nations to have a role, he said.
But, he said, the differences of opinion were "too big" to be settled before the delegates meet in Geneva next month. Other diplomats said there might be no decision even then.
The summit also will deal with questions such as how to block the spread of viruses, prevent unwanted "spam" and prevent the use of the medium for criminal purposes such as identity theft, Western officials said.
Russia has proposed that the final declaration address Internet security in both "civil and security fields," but many countries fear that any reference to military security could limit freedom of expression, Mr. Utsumi said.
There also is pressure for a strong statement in support of free expression on the Internet but sources said that is being resisted by China and other countries that want to maintain strong oversight of the medium.
Nitin Desai, special adviser to U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan, said the core purpose of the summit is to establish a common vision for the information society, to utilize new technologies to overcome poverty and to find ways to make Internet access affordable to all.
The president of Senegal has proposed the creation of a "global digital solidarity fund" to help poor countries establish Internet access. The ITU estimates that fewer than 1 percent of low-income country residents are Internet subscribers.
The United States and other industrialized countries say the existing mechanisms are sufficient and argue that funding a new international bureaucracy would not be an effective way to spread information technology.
Poor countries would be better served by establishing an environment in which the private sector would develop the needed infrastructure, the industrialized countries say.

Greece laid low by its decadence
SMH
PAUL SHEEHAN
May 17, 2010
On Wednesday the bill comes due for Greece, and Greece can't pay. Instead, it is going to take Europe down to its level, to an economy that has been kept afloat for years by blackmail, self-delusion and other people's money.
The metaphor for the decadence of modern Greece was years in the making but took shape on May 5, on Stadiou Street in the commercial district of Athens. Yet another mass strike by unionists and anarchists was making its way through the city. Three hooded men spun off from the march and began using hammers and rocks to smash the front window of the Marfin Egnatia Bank. After breaking the windows, and despite shouted warnings that there were people inside, the men lobbed several petrol bombs inside. Flames and smoke quickly engulfed the three-storey building.
Enter the Cavalry to save the day.
Upstairs, in her second-floor office, Paraskevi Zoulia, 34, known to her friends as Vivi, was at her desk. She was engaged to be married, and had been planning her wedding. She died of burns and smoke inhalation. A second young woman, Angeliki Papathanasopoulou, 32, who was four months pregnant, tried to escape the fire by climbing onto a balcony. She did not make it. A third co-worker, a young man, Epaminondas Tsalkis, 36, was found in a stairwell, asphyxiated by smoke.
What happened next was just as disturbing. When fire and ambulance crews attempted to respond, they were hampered by demonstrators protesting against cuts to public sector pay packages. People were still shouting anti-capitalist slogans outside the bank even after the fire bombing.
As the bank's chairman, Andreas Vgenopoulos, arrived at the scene soon after the attack, he was greeted by shouts of "murderer". One of the demonstrators shouted: "How many yachts do you own?" Police surrounded Vgenopoulos to protect him from the crowd. A video shows a man trying to break through the cordon to attack Vgenopoulos. The activist was bundled away by police in riot gear.
In response to the incident, the Greek Federation of Bank Employees' Unions issued a statement blaming the bank for the deaths, citing inadequate safety measures. The federation called for strike action, even accusing the government of complicity: ''This tragic event that took the life of three of our colleagues, two women and a man, is the sad consequence of anti-popular [government] measures that whipped up popular anger."
This absurd logic was then parroted on the hard-left websites. Typical was this tortured reasoning: ''Bank branches have been a regular target for protesters in the streets of Athens for years; for this reason, banks are boarded up on demonstration days. To lock up employees in a bank branch lying on the route of the biggest demonstration the country has seen in its post-dictatorial era is murderous negligence.''
The union front for the Communist Party, PAME, also blamed the government for the tragedy and called for a blockade of Parliament. It described the decision to endanger the workers by not closing the bank as a provocative act designed to ''demoralise the working class movement''.
This is the depravity of modern Greece, where political street intimidation is routine and public debt is larger than the nation's gross national product. This debt has been used to pay the bribes demanded by the militants, to pay for a giant public sector that Greece cannot afford, and whose workers expect a generous pension from the age of 58. Finally, this collective madness reached crisis point. Many people have blood on their hands in today's Greece. Violent demonstrations are commonplace. Deceit is endemic. Tax avoidance is the national sport. The public sector is bloated and strike-ridden. The government is bankrupt. The nation is deluded. The Greeks lied to get into the European currency union, then spent like fools once they gained admission.
With Wednesday's multimillion debt deadline looming for Greece, instead of allowing the country to default on its loans and accept reality, and for the euro-zone banks who lent so recklessly to absorb the consequences, the Greek cancer has been allowed to spread into the entire system of the European currency union. The European Central Bank, in concert with other agencies, has agreed to provide more than a trillion dollars (€750 million) of more debt to prop up the euro-zone banking system.
This is an enormous gamble, imposed by the political elite and technocratic class in Brussels, the headquarters of the European Union. At a stroke, this financial accord has significantly changed and enlarged the nature of the European Union, which will now issue bonds that carry Europe's AAA rating, to prop up nations in severe financial stress.
The bailout is designed to protect the euro-zone banking system, which is even more leveraged than the American banks were going into the global financial crisis in 2008. That crisis, unlike this one, was caused by the convergence of the excesses of casino capitalism, and the US government's meddling in diluting the bank lending standards. It was a disastrous combination.
Europe is largely burdened by a different disastrous convergence: a welfare system it can't sustain, excessive speculative lending by banks and, until last week, an inert European Central Bank. So the European Union has, de facto, extended its power into the banking system to save a currency union that is fractured in all but name.
No one knows how this will unfold. The euro zone has a tectonic fault-line between the Teutonic north and the Mediterranean south. The German people, the ultimate lenders of last resort for all this economic excess, may revolt under the burden. As they should. My guess is that this massive gamble will ultimately fail.
Up to 30 asylum seekers in brawl
Daily Telegraph
May 15, 2010
THREE people have been taken to hospital after up to 30 teenage asylum seekers brawled at a Melbourne accommodation centre.
The fight broke out at the Melbourne Immigration Transit Accommodation facility in Broadmeadows at 9.30pm (AEST) on Friday after an argument between two groups got out of control.
A Department of Immigration spokesperson said staff had the brawl under control before police arrived.
Two teenagers who suffered cuts to their upper bodies have been released from hospital. Another is waiting to be treated.
The facility houses family groups and unaccompanied minors.
Police are investigating the incident while the private contractor which runs the centre, Serco, is also investigating.
The immigration department says the facility, which holds 50 people, remains calm.
The spokesperson would not reveal the nationalities of the teenagers in the brawl.
Lu Kewen’s latest shipment of imported Labor voters,life long Social Security recepients and Muslim colonialists, should know better,after all they are predominantly members of the “Religion of Peace” and as such should at least wait until they are let loose on the Australian community by Lu Kewen and his Union funded Australian Labor Party, before they start spreading their version of “Peace” aka.

The Narrative of Defeat
By Janet Levy
American Thinker
May 09, 2010
It is now life-threatening to criticize or mock Islam in the United States of America. The creators of South Park, Viacom, and anyone associated with the production of a recent episode portraying Mohammed in a bear suit would have potentially risked life and limb if they had broadcast the original cartoon sketch. In a manner eerily reminiscent of the Danish cartoon jihad, a Brooklyn-based Muslim group called Revolution Muslim posted a threat to South Park creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker for their "outright insult" to the prophet.
"We have to warn Matt and Trey that what they are doing is stupid, and they will probably end up like Theo van Gogh for airing this show," read the post. Theo Van Gogh was the Dutch filmmaker who was murdered by a Dutch-Moroccan Muslim for producing the film Submission, critical of the treatment of women in Islam. Like Salman Rushdie, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Geert Wilders, and targeted infidels before them, life would have been reduced to an unending fielding of threats and the heavily guarded jockeying between safe houses for those associated with South Park if the episode had aired unaltered.
Alan Jones Janet Levy, Radio 2gb Sydney May 14 2010
The incident underscores the unceasing efforts by Islam to silence opposition and criticism in order to advance the establishment of a worldwide caliphate under Shari'ah law. Despite incidents like these, we in the West continue to react to Islam as if it were merely another variety of religious faith. Descriptions of Islam as a "religion of peace" and as "one of the three Abrahamic faiths" proliferate, obfuscating the need for further study and shielding the immutable, intolerant, militant, murderous doctrine from discovery. Although it's been almost nine years since 9/11, the level of knowledge and understanding of Islam is staggeringly low among the general population, let alone those sworn to protect us -- our military and intelligence services. At a time when the Western world should be intimately familiar with the concepts of jihad and dhimmitude, as well as the provisos of Shari'ah law, we are lulled back to sleep with platitudes of peaceful coexistence and shamed with charges of "Islamophobia" if we question the motives, demands, or practices of adherents to the Muslim faith.
Quite illogically -- given the sequence of events from 9/11 forward -- the very act of exhibiting fear or suspicion of Muslims is dubbed a "phobia" -- an irrational fear. This, after nineteen Muslims hijacked planes and flew them into buildings, exacting massive carnage in the name of their god, and afterward, their coreligionists feted the deed. The carnage has continued nonstop since then in other countries. In 2002, Muslim jihadists set off three bombs in Bali, killing over 200 people and wounding 240. In 2004, Islamic practitioners orchestrated a series of coordinated attacks against Madrid's commuter train system, claiming 200 lives and injuring 1,800. The following year, suicide attacks in London's public transportation system during the morning rush hour resulted in 52 deaths and 700 wounded. In 2008, Muslim terrorists held India's most populous city hostage for three days with a string of more than ten shootings and bombings at a hospital, cinema, college, and Jewish center that left 175 dead and over 300 injured. These are just a few examples among hundreds of recent attacks by Muslims worldwide.
Yet we in America shrink from charges of Islamophobia and fail to acknowledge our righteous apprehension of unthinkable acts of evil in the name of a vengeful and certainly not peaceful god. We allow ourselves to be censured and plead guilty as charged of Islamophobia for scrutinizing the activities of Muslims and placing blame on the canons of Islam. The joy and celebration from Muslims across the world following the mass slaughter and destruction of 9/11 should have put us over the edge and strengthened our resolve to eradicate followers of this deadly belief system. Instead, we exhibit suicidal insanity in our failure and unwillingness to connect the dots of Islam, jihad, and Shari'ah. We dither, apologize to the enemy, and shrink from rightful condemnations of their holy books, their religious practices, and their legal code.
No other religion on earth exists with a holy book dominated by hatred toward non-believers. The Islamic trilogy -- the Koran, the Sira (or biography of Mohammed), and the Hadith (the words and deeds of Mohammed) -- requires jihad, the killing of infidels, as the highest form of devotion to Allah. Islam is a theo-political-legal doctrine whose primary focus is not on the "goodness" of Muslims, but on others -- evildoers who do not share the Islamic belief system. Certainly the Old and New Testaments offer their fair share of brutal passages, but the practices described within those passages haven't been in evidence for centuries. The brutal practices contained within Shari'ah law are practiced today throughout the Muslim and non-Muslim worlds, even in the United States.
Christians suffer through confession and acts of repentance for untoward acts that hurt others. Christians aspire to exemplary kindness and service to their fellow man for the privilege of escaping a hellfire-filled afterlife. Jihadists are awarded a guaranteed place in heaven and the promise of great reward for the holy act of murdering those who don't believe. While Jews practice "tikkun olam" -- repairing the world -- and perform "mitzvoth," or good deeds, devout Muslims pray to Allah for inanimate objects like rocks and trees to alert them to the presence of dastardly Jews. They pray, "O Muslim there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him." Muslim world leaders and clerics routinely call for the death of non-Muslims. Has anyone ever heard a Western prime minister, president, rabbi, or priest call for the annihilation of a country or for the destruction of practitioners of other religions?
The Koran contains over four thousand verses of enmity toward non-believers. Over 63% of the Koran instructs Muslims to hate and avoid any association with non-Muslims. It teaches that non-Muslims should be held in contempt, killed, beheaded, humiliated, raped, enslaved, converted, or forced to pay the jizya or dhimmi tax. Eighty-five percent of the Sira -- the biography of Mohammed, the ideal man or moral icon for Muslims -- has to do with his battles against kuffars, or non-believers. This is a far cry from "Jesus died for your sins." Islamic teachings laud and require lying and deception, "taquiya," to advance the "ummah," or Islamic community. While Jews and Christians honor the Golden Rule, turn the other cheek and practice tolerance and inclusiveness, Muslims learn how to fight the Dar al-Harb, the infidel world of war, and practice the artistry of duplicity not only with impunity, but also with the highest praises from their god.
Let's not lull ourselves into complacency by citing that out of 1.57 billion Muslims worldwide, many are secular or have little knowledge of Islam. Although this may be true, that still leaves, conservatively, 10% to 15% (upwards of 235 million) of devout Muslims or jihadists who fit the description of submissive and intimidated, witting or unwitting enablers. As Mark Steyn astutely observed in America Alone, a "dominant minority" is the sole requirement for global jihad to take hold. In Mumbai, the carnage wreaked was caused by just ten people over three days. Nineteen hijackers were able to commandeer four passenger planes and murder three thousand Americans on 9/11. It doesn't take huge numbers to institute evil. In Nazi Germany, Hitler didn't win popular support in the country, but he pushed through his genocidal agenda as a passive, fearful populace looked on.
In our free society with a tradition of openly criticizing everything, even the sacred, it has now somehow become unacceptable to criticize Islam and the heinous actions of many of its practitioners. Yet it is perfectly acceptable to criticize Christianity, Judaism, or any other religion, for that matter. In 1989, "Piss Christ," an offensive photograph of a plastic crucifix submerged in a container of urine, was prominently displayed at a museum and won a U.S. government-funded award. While members of Congress and clerics condemned the sculpture in the media, the most egregious responses were from a museum patron who attempted to dislodge the photograph from the museum wall and a pair of teenagers who attacked it with a hammer. By comparison, in 2005, when editorial cartoons depicting Mohammed were published in a Danish newspaper, the Muslim world erupted into violence that claimed over one hundred lives and destroyed property worldwide, including four Danish embassies. Instead of reinforcing the Western value of free expression and severely punishing the actions of destructive Muslims, Westerners apologized for giving offense, censored the display of the cartoons, and cautiously monitored any future examination or critique of Islam.
Muslim Brotherhood founder Hassan al-Banna said, "It is the nature of Islam to dominate, not to be dominated; to impose its law on all nations and to extend its power to the entire planet." The work of the Muslim Brotherhood in America is "a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and ‘sabotaging' its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and Allah's religion is made victorious over all other religions."
It is now five minutes to midnight in the global jihad that endeavors to destroy us and establish a worldwide caliphate under Shari'ah law. Instead of standing our ground and asserting the supremacy of our values, our fear and submissiveness have taken root to hasten our defeat. Will we wake up and face the enemy head-on before it is too late and all is lost?
Right says Fred Nile, ban the burqa

THE Reverend Fred Nile will introduce a Bill to parliament calling for a ban on the Islamic burqa head and body veil.
The Christian Democrats MP wants NSW to follow France and other European countries, which have moved to ban women from wearing the full head and body covering in public.
But Muslim leaders yesterday said it was inappropriate for a man to tell a woman to remove clothing.
The private member's Bill will likely be introduced next Thursday.
"We should establish that in Australia we are an open society, that people don't cover up their faces. If they are involved in criminal activity they do," Mr Nile said yesterday.
"They do it with the burqa, it is not part of our culture and tradition."

Muslim spokesman Keysar Trad attacked the proposed law, and said it was an attack on women's freedom.
"Muslim women will be disgusted, especially that a man who is supposedly a man of God is telling them to remove items of clothing and telling them how to dress," he said. "While I don't advocate the face cover, I will defend the rights of any Muslim woman who wishes to wear it and if she doesn't choose to wear it, I defend her as well."
Mr Nile asked the State Government to ban the burqa eight years ago in a move that sparked a furore at the time.
But his private member's Bill will almost certainly not succeed because he lacks the required numbers.
Opposition spokeswoman for women Pru Goward said society was split but the burqa did not fit with her view of women's rights in the same way as the overt sexualisation of women at the opposite end of the spectrum.
"It is very difficult ... everyone has the choice to dress the way they want to. The question is are they dressing like that because they have to or because they feel they have to? You can't answer that question," she said.
Mr Nile told parliament on Wednesday night there were also security fears as terrorists in the Middle East and Russia had launched attacks while concealing their identity under a burqa.
Iran’s,Islam’s Sociopath In Chief,President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, appointed to UN’s Gabfest on Wimmin’s Rights
This Islamic Sociopath believes that there is a thing called the “Mahadi’ living down a well somewhere in Iran and that his only responsibility to Iran is to prepare for this things coming.
One of his Religious and all things Scientific advisors believes, that the recent spat of Earthquakes were,and are, caused by Women,who dress immodestly.
What better Islamic Sociopath for the United Nations to appoint to a committee to proscribe Women’s (Wimmins?) Rights.
Will Women be permitted to attend funerals now that this UN and Hussein Obama like thinker,Darling’s ideology is now deciding what is good for Women ? Or will he maintain the Islamic status quo and agree that women are Filthy and they should not attend Funerals ?
This Iranian recently sought to disagree with Hussein Obama and the UN’s pin up boy, she took to the streets to demonstrate with thousands of other Iranians, she was spared the Gang Rape by her prison guards prior to her execution, she was mercifully shot through the head on the street and died in the arms of those who loved her and like her were rejecting the Godless Savagery of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
