RCE: We fully support him. AAFont Size By Arutz Sheva StaffFirst Publish: 4/22/2013, 2:45 AM Berlin's district attorney has launched an investigation into complaints about a circumcision in the German capital involving the metzitzah b'peh ritual.The circumcision in question took place on March 3, on the son of Berlin Chabad Rabbi Yehudah Teichtal and his wife, Leah.During the metzitzah b'peh ritual, a mohel (circumcisor) uses oral suction so that a small amount of fresh blood flows from and cleanses the wound after removal of the foreskin. This is the original way circumcision has been done since its inception. While there are rabbis today that allow this suction to be done via a tube, many do not agree to this change in religious practice. The &quot;metzitza&quot; procedure is mandatory for a circumcision to be halakhically valid (according to Jewish law).Berlin's prosecutors have not said whether Rabbi Teichtal's son was harmed by the procedure. Germany's main Jewish newspaper, the Juedische Allgemeine Wochenzeitung, reported that one of the complainants was Christian Bahls, a mathematician from the city of Rostock who heads a local association for victims of sexual abuse and has a "working group on victims of circumcision. "In a statement after the circumcision, Bahls said he decided to sue after seeing a video of the procedure. He said the new German law did not legalize the practice of metzitzah b'peh, but rather required that all circumcisions be performed according to modern medical standards. The issue of circumcision has made headlines in Germany over the past few months, particularly after a court in the western city of Cologne judged the rite to be tantamount to grievous bodily harm, prompting international outrage and calls for more legal clarity and German diplomats admitted privately that it had proved &quot;disastrous&quot; for Germany's international image, particularly in light of its Nazi past. Chancellor Angela Merkel's cabinet has passed a draft law to permit circumcision and clarify its legal situation. The Chancellor has clarified to Germany's Jewish community that respecting religious rituals such as circumcision is "fundamental".The Rabbinical Centre of Europe (RCE) has issued a statement expressing its full support for Rabbi Teichtel. "We are aware that he spoke to a Mohel (who has 30 years of experience and is one of the internationally most renowned Mohalim with a certificate from the Israeli health ministry and the Chief Rabbinate of Israel), prior to the ceremony and asked him to perform the circumcision according to proper medical manner and in accordance with the Jewish law and German laws," said RCE. "The Mohel assured him that he indeed performed the circumcision in such a manner.""In the past days, he has been attacked with negative comments in the media. This is truly saddening as those who attacked him did not even make the effort to speak to the Berlin Rabbi first and to find out the facts," the statement added. "The Jews of Europe must have religious freedom. All Jewish leaders have the responsibility and obligation to stop any interference with any detail of Jewish practice."Rabbi Teichtel has lived and worked in Berlin for almost 17 years, he is known to stand for fairness and respect and for an open, tolerant cooperation within our society," noted RCE. http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/167345 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=af9_1367349010 Catalytic Berlin Rabbi Investigated for Performing ritual of &amp;amp; &amp;quot;oral-<span class="highlight">genital</span> suction&amp;quot; during circumcision, Rabbinate supports Ritual Israel, Jews, Berlin, Herpes, Rabbi, circumcision, oral-genital Tue, 07 May 2013 03:38:10 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=15a_1367912059 stirgy . Cops: Woman's Testicle Clawing Left Boyfriend "Bleeding From His Genital Area" During a domestic dispute early yesterday, a South Carolina woman allegedly clawed the testicles of her naked and drunken live-in boyfriend, who was left "bleeding from his genital area," police report. The confrontation between Nicholas Bailey, 31, and Sabrina Morton, 26, began after Bailey returned to the couple's Spartanburg home intoxicated. The pair tussled when "Bailey went and laid down in the shower," according to a Spartanburg County Sheriff's Office report. Morton told officers that mutual pushing and shoving resulted in a chunk of hair being pulled from her head by Bailey. "In return she grabbed Mr. Bailey by the testicles causing laceration and bleeding," cops noted. When police arrived at the pair's residence, Bailey, sitting naked on the couch, "advised that he was bleeding from his genital area due to Sabrina Morton clawing his testicles. EMS was called for Mr. Bailey's injuries." Bailey and Morton were charged with domestic violence and booked into the county jail (where they posed for the above mug shots). They were each freed from custody yesterday morning after posting bond.

According to police in cities across the country, thousands of people descended on sheep farms and began sexually penetrating the animals almost instantly after parliament voted for marriage equality yesterday. &quot;This is a public health crisis,&quot; explains Tony Rydall, minister for health. &quot;We're seeing reports of sexually transmitted diseases, genital injuries, and severe damage to sheep rectums. It's absolute mayhem out there.&quot; Witnesses say that normal, healthy individuals who had previously shown no proclivity for human-animal sexual contact have suddenly thrown themselves into the frenzy. &quot;I dunno, it just seems like a logical thing to do,&quot; says 25-year-old Angus Oldfield. &quot;Now that gays are allowed to get married, it seems like there's no limits anymore. Why not shag a sheep? Or snog a salamander? Or wed a wallaby? The rules no longer apply.&quot; May Good FlourishThe epicenter of the epidemic appears to be the city of Christchurch on the South Island, where police have arrested more than 4,000 people under the bestiality section of the Crimes Act 1961 . &quot;We're using old airplane hangars as jails now,&quot; explains Peter Marshall, commissioner of the New Zealand Police. &quot;My god why did we do this? Gay marriage has been a catastrophe. We'll never recover.&quot; The rapid increase in zoophilia has shocked public health officials, who had hitherto been under the naive assumption that homosexuality was an innocuous consensual activity that had no bearing on the sexuality of others. However the situation has come as no surprise to Ray Comfort, a New Zealand-based evangelical Christian minister. &quot;This is exactly what we Christians warned about,&quot; he says. &quot;If you redefine the definition of marriage, you destroy the foundation of sexual morality. All kinds of deviant sexual behaviors become acceptable. &quot;Gay marriage opens the door to sex with animals, doorknobs, bananas, frozen yoghurt, goldfish - anything you can think of. Sheep are only the beginning.&quot; American anti-gay activist Rick Santorum, who once warned that gay marriage would lead to &quot;man-on-dog sex&quot; also feels vindicated. &quot;I hate to say I told you so,&quot; he says, &quot;but I think this speaks for itself.&quot; New Zealand Prime Minister John Key is expected to address the nation tonight and announce emergency plans to help contain the situation. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=e10_1366998319 Purple_People_Eater Bestiality Surges Hours After New Zealand Legalizes Gay Marriage gay, marriage, bestiality, New Zealand, sheep Thu, 25 Apr 2013 07:34:59 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=26d_1366889561 Moron Watch Appearing on Fox News Republican talk show "Hannity" Monday night, right-wing columnist Ann Coulter said she's sad that not only does she think the Boston bombing should shut down the nation's immigration reform debate, she would like to see the alleged bomber's widow in jail too, not for committing a crime but for "wearing a hijab." "I don't care if she knew about this," Coulter said . "She ought to be in prison for wearing a hijab. This immigration policy of us, you know, assimilating immigrants into our culture isn't really working. They're assimilating us into their culture. Did she get a clitorectomy too?" Hannity seemed momentarily puzzled at the sudden citation of female genital mutilation, stammering his reply. "I, uh, I don't know the answer to that," he said before confidently adding: "But your point is well taken." Hannity went on to say that he believes people who immigrated "from countries where perhaps they grew up under Sharia law" are definitely a threat and "I think we can make a safe assumption that they have been radicalized." He added that even foreign students should be subjected to greater scrutiny, lest they too pose a threat. "Our immigration policy has nothing to do with helping America," Coulter insisted. "It has to do with solving the internal problems of other countries. We'll take Russia's radicals. We'll take the illiterate, unskilled, low-skill workers from all these countries. We'll take their old people and put them on our supplemental security and Medicare. No, immigration policies are supposed to make your country better, not to make it worse and to create all these problems." "Lindsey Graham was on some show this week saying this shows we need better tracking," she continued. "I'm thinking this means we need better immigrants." Coulter and Hannity are just the latest conservatives to jump on the idea that because the Boston bombing suspects were born overseas, the nation's whole immigration reform debate must shift gears into more regressive policy proposals, or just shut down in Congress altogether, as it did on Monday . Fellow Republican talker Laura Ingraham said as much on Monday afternoon , suggesting that the U.S. shut down all immigration from majority Muslim nations. "I would submit that people shouldn't be coming here as tourists from Chechnya after 9/11," she said. "Dagistan, Checnya, Kergystan, uh-uh. As George Bush would say, 'None of them stans.'" Both Boston bombing suspects came to the U.S. legally as children. Authorities say there is not yet any evidence linking them to any foreign terrorist organizations, but an investigation is still ongoing. Additionally, the Partnership for a New American Economy said last year that about one in 10 Americans worked for an immigrant-owned business in 2012, which contributed more than $775 billion to the U.S. economy and over $125 billion in payroll. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=26d_1366889561 Moron Watch Moron Coulter: Boston suspect's widow 'ought to be in prison for wearing a hijab' USA, Coulter, Insane Moron Tue, 09 Apr 2013 16:44:13 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=22d_1365539778 Catalytic A second NYC Jewish newborn in three months contracts neonatal herpes from oral suctioning conduction during circumcision. A second New York City Jewish newborn in three months has contracted neonatal herpes from oral suctioning conducted during ritual circumcision, according to New York City's Department of Health and Mental Hygiene.Conducted by some mohels (circumcisers) in ultra-Orthodox circles, the procedure involves orally sucking away blood from the infant's genital area after the bris (circumcision). While many mohels use a sterile pipette instead, those who do not risk infecting newborns with herpes simplex virus type 1, which can be fatal for infants and can cause permanent brain or physical damage. Related: NY mayor seeks to regulate circumcision practice Jewish groups sue NYC over circumcision rule In January 2013, New York's health department began mandating parents of infants about to undergo ritual Jewish circumcision to sign a consent form permitting mohels to use the oral method, known as metzitzah b'peh. In the recent case of herpes contraction, the parents did not sign that form, The Forward reported. The infant survived, but it is not yet clear whether he sustained any long-term damage.According to a study published in the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report in June 2012, one in 4,098 New York City male newborns have either contracted or were probably exposed to the herpes virus. Though this incidence is not high, it is 3.4 times greater than the incidence among newborns outside New York.Critics of New York's metzitzah b'peh regulation believe the city is violating the US Constitution by policing the religious rite. Additionally, State Assemblyman Dov Hikind, however, has said the regulation "thrusts the city deeper into a nanny-ocracy that has dubious implications" and is "a deliberate insult to the intelligence and dignity of Orthodox Jews who live in this city." http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=22d_1365539778 Catalytic Yet another baby contracts Herpes from Jewish ritual of &quot;oral-<span class="highlight">genital</span> suction&quot; Israel, Jews, New, York, Herpes, Rabbi, circumcision, oral-genital suction Tue, 16 Apr 2013 04:00:45 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=d36_1366098716 kauan Source: http://jihadonbuddhists.org/?p=382 The world's biggest organisation after UN, OIC Organisation of the Islamic Conference, are always quick to condemn attacks on Muslims.

By about 5 they reached Meikhtilar and soon they saw a large mob of angry Muslim Kalars armed with swords and iron rods gathering on both sides of the main road just before the traffic light by Taw Win Nan restaurant. ... Instead of just throwing petrol and acid wholesale from the cans the Muslim men, women, and even the Muslim children were using small cups to slowly pour acid and petrol all over his body as if they were committing a communal torture on a completely-innocent but anyway-much-hated Buddhist monk. Meanwhile the angry Buddhist crowd had followed some fleeing Muslims intothe nearby mosque and burned the huge Saudi-built mosque down along with the Muslims inside. The dead monk was completely naked. The morgue staff was then sewing the gaping head wound back. When they looked close-up they sadly noticed the monk's genital was completely chopped off (by the Muslims). (Burmese police has already caught four Muslims identified by many witnesses as the main culprits in killing of Monk U Thawbita, and they have now been charged with Act 302 - First Degree Murder - and the Chief-attorney of Mandalay Division has already declared that he would ask for death penalty by hanging if the four Muslims are found guilty as charged.)" http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=d36_1366098716 kauan Muslim mob tortures Buddhist monk with acid, cuts off his penis and burn him alive Burma Myanmar Buddhism Buddhist Muslim Mobs Torture Burning Alive Islam Islamization Jihad Meikhtila Rangoon Mandalay Junta Fri, 12 Apr 2013 00:40:33 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=93f_1365741500 grimghost Two more infants have been infected with a deadly herpes virus in the last three months after undergoing a controversial religious oral circumcision in New York City. The latest cases bring the count to 13 infants since 2000, two of which suffered brain damage and two died from the virus which can rapidly spread throughout its body. The ultra-Orthodox Jewish practice of metzitzah b'peh requires a practitioner to orally suck the baby's penis to 'cleanse' the open wound following its circumcision, making them susceptible to the virus. The department of health says one of the latest infants to contract the virus developed a fever and a lesion on its scrotum, seven days after the procedure. The boy later tested positive for HSV-1. That virus differs from HSV-2, the genital herpes, which is contracted during sexual intercourse. 'A herpes infection in a newborn baby has the risk of leading to severe illness and death,' Jay Varma, deputy commissioner for disease control at the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene told ABC News. The reason is that the baby doesn't have the same fully developed immune system as an adult. Instead of staying in the genital area, it extends throughout different organs in the body,' he explained. He said it's too soon to tell whether the boys will suffer permanent effects. The identify of the rabbi who performed the circumcision is being withheld by the boys' parents, preventing the health department to step in, they said. The religious practice that dates back to more than 5,000 years defies warning by the city's department of health which says there is no safe way to perform the oral suction on an open wound. More modern Jewish practices use a sterile aspiration device to clean the wound or a pipette opposed to the oral sucking. But some rabbis stand grounded behind the practice, calling it a religious freedom while noting its long history. In September the department voted to require parents to sign forms consenting to the risks of the practice after the death of two children who contracted the virus through the practice. The parents of those newly infected boys are said to have not signed those forms. According to Rabbi David Zwiebel, executive vice president of the Orthodox Jewish organization Agudath Israel of America, two-thirds of boys born in New York City's Hasidic communities are circumcised in the oral suction matter. The health department claims they've had complaints in past by parents who say they weren't made aware that the oral practice would be performed on their child. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/ http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=93f_1365741500 grimghost Two babies Contract herpes after ritual orthodox Jewish oral sucking circumcision in NYC Jew,Jewish,Orthadox,Blood sucking,metzitzah b'peh Tue, 09 Apr 2013 21:26:17 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=944_1365556738 pimpin87 Two more babies stricken with herpes after ritual ultra-orthodox Jewish oral blood sucking circumcision in New York City Two more infants have been infected with a deadly herpes virus in the last three months after undergoing a controversial religious oral circumcision in New York City.

Our instinctive reaction has been that Britain is a relentlessly racist country bent on thwarting the lives of ethnic minorities, that the only decent policy is to throw open our doors to all and that those with doubts about how we run our multi-racial society are guilty of prejudice. And that view - echoed in Whitehall, Westminster and town halls around the country - has been the prevailing ideology, setting the tone for the immigration debate. But for some years, this has troubled me and, gradually, I have changed my mind. Over 18 months of touring the country to talk to people about their lives for a new book, I have discovered minority Britons thriving more than many liberals suppose possible. But I also saw the mess of division and conflict we have got ourselves into in other places. I am now convinced that public opinion is right and Britain has had too much immigration too quickly. For 30 years, the Left has blinded itself with sentiment about diversity. But we got it wrong. I still believe that large-scale immigration has made Britain livelier and more dynamic than it would otherwise have been. I believe, too, that this country is significantly less racist than it once was. In many places immigration is working as the textbooks say it should with a degree of harmony, with minorities upwardly mobile and creating interesting new hybrid identities in mixed suburbs. But it has also resulted in too many areas in which ethnic minorities lead almost segregated lives - notably in the northern 'mill towns' and other declining industrial regions, which in the Sixties and Seventies attracted one of the most clannish minorities of modern times, rural Kashmiri Pakistanis. In Leicester and Bradford, almost half of the ethnic population live in what are technically ghettos (defined as areas where minorities form more than two-thirds of the population). Meanwhile, parts of white working-class Britain have been left feeling neither valued nor useful, believing that they have been displaced by newcomers not only in the job market but also in the national story itself. Those in the race lobby have been slow to recognise that strong collective identities are legitimate for majorities as well as minorities, for white as well as for black people. For a democratic state to have any meaning, it must 'belong' to existing citizens. They must have special rights over non-citizens. Immigration must be managed with their interests in mind. But it has not been. The justification for such a large and unpopular change has to be that the economic benefits are significant and measurable. But they are not. One of the liberal elite's myths is that we are a 'mongrel nation' that has always experienced high inflows of outsiders. But this isn't true. From 1066 until 1950, immigration was almost non-existent (excluding Ireland) - a quarter of a million at the most, mainly Huguenots and Jews. Post-World War II immigration has been on a completely different scale from anything that went before. These days, more people arrive on our shores as immigrants in a single year than did so in the entire period from 1066 to 1950, excluding wartime. Much of this happened by accident. When the 1948 Nationality Act was passed - giving all citizens of the Empire and Commonwealth the right to live and work in Britain - it was not expected that the ordinary people of poor former colonies would arrive in their hundreds of thousands. Nor was it expected after 1997 that a combination of quite small decisions would lead to 1.5 million East Europeans arriving, about half to settle. But come they did, and a net immigration of around four million foreign-born citizens since 1997 has produced easily the most dramatic demographic revolution in British history. Yet there was no general discussion in the New Labour Cabinet of the day about who Britain wanted to let in and in what numbers; no discussion about how the country could absorb them without pressure on public services. By the time of the next census in 2021, the non-white minority population will have risen to around 20 per cent, a trebling in just 25 years. By 2066, according to one demographer, white Britons will be in a minority. This is already the case in some towns and cities, including London, Leicester, Slough and Luton, with Birmingham expected to follow in the near future. If Britain had a clear and confident sense of its national culture and was good at integrating people, then perhaps this speed of change would be of little concern. But this is not the case. We are deep into a huge social experiment. To give it a chance of working, we need to heed the 'slow down' signs that the electorate is waving. And all the more so given that the low economic growth era we are now in means people's grievances cannot easily be bought off with rising wages and public spending. The fact is that the whole post-war process of immigration has been badly managed or, rather, not managed at all. It is often said that the importation of people from the Indian subcontinent to work in textile mills that were soon to close - ironically, partly thanks to competition from India and Pakistan itself - was a poor piece of social engineering. But the whole point was that no one really engineered it. It just happened. And then no one came forward to grasp the consequences or even acknowledge there might be a problem. The fault lies with our leaders, not with the people who came for a better life. There has been a huge gap between our ruling elite's views and those of ordinary people on the street. This was brought home to me when dining at an Oxford college and the eminent person next to me, a very senior civil servant, said: 'When I was at the Treasury, I argued for the most open door possible to immigration I saw it as my job to maximise global welfare not national welfare.' I was even more surprised when the notion was endorsed by another guest, one of the most powerful television executives in the country. He, too, felt global welfare was paramount and that he had a greater obligation to someone in Burundi than to someone in Birmingham. Such grand notions run counter to the way most people in this country think or arrange their priorities. The British political class has never prepared existing citizens for something as game-changing as large-scale immigration, nor has it done a good job at explaining what the point of large-scale immigration was and whose interests it was meant to serve. Crucially, they failed to control the inflow more overtly in the interests of existing citizens. On the contrary, the idea that immigration should be unambiguously in the interests of existing citizens was blurred from the start. Then, whenever there were problems with immigrant communities, the tendency was for the host society to be blamed for not being sufficiently accommodating or for being racist, rather than considering the self-inflicted wounds of some minority cultures. Thus, the absence of fathers in many African-Caribbean households was excused as a cultural trait that just had to be accepted rather than a dereliction of duty that needed addressing. Yes, being a newcomer can be hard, even in a liberal society such as Britain's that today offers undreamed of protections and rights compared with earlier eras. But what has been largely ignored is that mass immigration makes big demands on host communities, too, and a successful strategy must engage the attention, consent and sympathy of the host majority as well. Democratic common sense demands that politics and law cannot concern themselves only with the problems of minorities. The majority must have a voice, too, in how we manage a multi-racial society. Like most white British people of my generation, I am happy living in a multi-racial society. I relish the fact that the immigration-related changes of the past few decades have been overwhelmingly accepted and even celebrated by white Britain. Caribbean and Chinese men and women 'marry out' in large numbers, and there are many places where a cross-ethnic common life is the norm, especially among younger people. But one of the challenges is how to allow older and poorer white people a safe space in which to express a sense of loss and homesickness for the past, without this mood spilling over into racism. What, for example, do we say to the elderly white people of the Pollards Hill estate in Merton, in South-West London - which I visited on my travels - many of whom feel displaced and disrupted by the arrival of a large Ghanaian population in recent years? To the local whites, the Ghanaians are not fitting in but imposing their own way of life on the neighbourhood. Similar small battles are taking place in thousands of other housing estates up and down the country. What has most bedevilled immigration in this country for years now is a twist in the prevailing doctrine of multi-culturalism. As originally conceived, this was a deliberate and praise-worthy policy of 'colour-blindness' - a belief in equal rights and reform of institutions to stamp out prejudice and abuse of power. But it also placed an onus on the newcomer to fit in. The immigrant has chosen to come to an existing country with its own laws, history, language and so on. Those need to be respected and understood. One cannot be British on one's own exclusive terms or on a highly selective basis. That does not mean that pious Muslims must give up their religion and get drunk on Saturday nights. But it does mean that Muslims must adjust to a society dominated by Christian and secular humanist values, which places a high degree of importance on individual freedom and the rights of women. And they must accept that their minority rights must co-exist with and sometimes concede to majority rights, especially in the public sphere. So far, so good. Unfortunately, the multiculturalism that emerged in the Eighties ditched integration as an objective, put ethnic identity before national citizenship and reinforced a separateness that was already developing in some minority neighbourhoods through simple weight of numbers. 'Parallel lives' have been allowed to grow up in some places. Too often, the demands of minority leaders have been for a separate slice of power and resources, rather than for the means to create a common life. The state cannot force people to integrate, but it can remove obstacles and make it easier to join in. Education is crucial here. But when, in 1984, Bradford headmaster Ray Honeyford, whose school was 90 per cent Muslim, wrote articles criticising Pakistani parents for taking their children on long trips to Pakistan during term-time and attacked the corporal punishment culture of mosque schools, a campaign by Muslim parents and local white activists forced him to resign. It was a key victory for separatism and a defeat for integration. After that, separatist multiculturalism sided with the imams against Salman Rushdie after the publication of his book The Satanic Verses and the imposition of a fatwa against him; it encouraged people to wear non-Western dress and to continue speaking an ancestral language at home. It judged the chauvinistic assumptions of many South Asian households by a different standard to that applied to white Britain. It was happy with South Asians going back to the subcontinent for arranged marriages with non-English speaking spouses, despite the damage to integration this often caused (and the misery for many young women). Separatist multiculturalism, in its extreme form, even turned a blind eye to practices that were the opposite of the liberalism that inspired it - forced marriage, female genital mutilation, the hounding of gays. The root problem with separatist multiculturalism is that minority Britons are encouraged to identify first as a member of that minority and only second, if at all, as a citizen. And this has made it harder for ordinary Britons to think of some minorities, and especially Muslims, as part of the same community as them, with common experiences and interests. The problem with mass immigration is that, without integration, it damages the internal solidarity of a country such as ours. And if values and lifestyles become more diverse, it becomes more difficult to sustain the legitimacy of the welfare state. Most of us are no longer asked to risk death for our country, but we are asked to pay around one third of our income into a common national pool and, in return, the state manages large bits of infrastructure for us - such as defence, transport, energy, public services, welfare and so on. For this to work, the modern citizen is expected to conform to a thicket of rules and regulations. And in order to sustain this level of sharing and co-operation, we need at least some sense of 'emotional citizenship', the belief that, despite many different interests, we're also part of the same team. I fear that large-scale, poorly managed immigration is endangering this social contract. Britain is a welfare democracy. Existing citizens have rights of national ownership. Extending the idea of equal citizenship to millions of outsiders raises the problem of how to reconcile the special rights of existing citizens with those of new ones. It is a problem we ignore at our peril. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=7a0_1364046541 english-patriot33 SATURDAY ESSAY: Why we on the Left made an epic mistake on immigration immigration, islam, libtards, outlaw islam, Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:33:35 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=720_1363273617 english-patriot33 http://www.truthbeknown.com/fitnareview.html In my review here, I will be reproducing the pertinent surahs with additional verses at times from a different translation (where noted) that is somewhat more comprehensible to both native and non-native speakers of English. I am further describing pretty much everything in the film just in case it becomes unavailable at any point - even though, hopefully, thousands of people have already saved it to their computers and are putting it up all over the place. "Let not the unbelievers think that they will ever get away. They have not the power to do so. Muster against them all the men and cavalry at your command, so that you may strike terror into the enemy of God and your enemy..." --Q 8:59-60 (Dawood, N.J., The Koran: With a Parallel Arabic Text, Penguin Classics, 1991, p. 183) After this Islamic declaration of war, the movie cuts to the horrifyingly familiar footage of the planes hitting the World Trade Center Towers. (Yes, of course, I am well aware of the debate as to who was really behind the conspiracy to destroy the World Trade Center Buildings. Here are the facts: Speaking out of both sides of their mouths, Muslim fanatics are using 9/11 both to intimidate the world into bowing to their will by claiming responsibility for it - as in " Europe, you will pay, your 9/11 is on the way " - and to denounce "the Jews" by blaming it on them.) Next we see the Madrid train bombings of March 11, 2004, overlain with the wretched rantings of rabid imams calling for the deaths of infidels, followed by gruesome images of bodies blown to bits and burned. The next Koranic verse is 4:56: "Those who deny Our revelations We will burn in fire. No sooner will their skins be consumed than We shall give them other skins, so that they may truly taste the scourge. God is mighty and wise." -- Q 4:56 (Dawood, p. 86) This violent imagery is followed by the rantings of another rabid Muslim imam essentially advocating the beheading of Jews. Next, he pulls out a sword and starts swinging it around, arousing the depraved crowd, who all begin shouting, "Allahu Akbar! (Allah is great!)," as well as "Jihad for the sake of Allah!" The connection of jihad with MURDER, rather than "inner struggle," as we have been led to believe by Muslim apologists, could not be more obvious. Then we see the adorable but infamous three-year-old Palestinian girl - already covered up in her oppressed female state - dutifully reciting that Jews are "apes and pigs ." This assertion is true because it says so in the Koran, the little girl, who should never have known such bigotry and hatred, tells us. This sad scene is followed by the grisly images of Muslims dragging burned and beaten bodies through the streets, as well as bombed-out British buses and subway cars. Another rabid imam is firing up the Muslim congregation by calling for the " butchering" and "killing " of Jews. We are next subjected to images of Palestinian armies, and a freakish woman dressed in a black burkha carrying a placard warning Europe to " Be prepared for the REAL holocaust ," along with another insidious-looking black-garbed Muslim woman bearing a sign saying, " God Bless Hitler " in red ink. The next segment highlights the Koranic surah 47:4: "Therefore, when ye meet the unbelievers, smite at their necks and when ye have caused a bloodbath among them bind a bond firmly on them..." Cut to an image of Theo van Gogh with Dutch narration asking him if he thinks "an idiot" will want to kill him, to which he naively answers, "No, I can't imagine that." We know what happens next: van Gogh is shot multiple times and his head nearly severed by a Muslim fanatic upset over the filmmaker's movie "Submission," which exposed Islamic abuse of women. In Great Britain, Muslim rabblerousers hold signs calling for jihad against Europeans, invoking the murder of Theo van Gogh, making it quite evident what they mean when they use the term "jihad": "Take lessons - for you will pay with your blood." The following image is of another Palestinian with face covered by a keffiyeh holding a Koran in his right hand and a large knife in the other. We next see a "hit list" from a Dutch newspaper that included Theo van Gogh, Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Geert Wilders. A Saudi imam is inciting young men to be sacrificed by going out and slitting throats and shattering skulls, saying, "This is the path to victory." At this point we see Muslim savages begin to hack off young American businessman Nick Berg's head. Fortunately, we are spared the hideous sight, but we can still hear the sickening, evil torture - followed Berg's head being held aloft by the evil Muslim barbarian. At this point, I ask myself for the umpteenth time: HOW CAN ANYONE DEFEND FOR ONE MOMENT THIS HEINOUS IDEOLOGY? On to the Koranic surah 4:89: "They but wish that ye should reject faith as they do, and thus be on the same footing as they, so take not friends from their ranks until they flee in the way of Allah. But if they turn renegades, seize them and kill them wherever ye find them and taken no friends or helpers from their ranks." After this we see the average Afghan on the street stating that "Islam is the best religion there is" and that "If someone converts to Christianity, he deserves the death penalty." We might here ask ourselves, "THAT'S the 'best religion there is?' Compared to what?!" We are then informed by another rabid Muslim imam that Islam is superior to all the other religions, accompanied by an image of a Muslim desecrating a church. Next come images of Dutch newspaper articles showing death threats against Dutch politician Ehsan Jami, British writer Sir Salman Rushdie and Dutch politician Ayaan Hirsi Ali - all three apostates from Islam. On to Surah 8:39: "Fight them until there is no dissension and the religion is entirely Allah's." This "holy scripture" is followed by a series of Muslim fanatics declaring: "Islam is a religion that wants to rule the world. It has done so before and eventually will rule it again." At this point, we would not be unreasonable to think to ourselves: "Will ABSOLUTE EVIL be allowed to dominate the planet?" The fanatic Iranian president is shown making the same comments concerning Muslim hegemony. From one after another Muslim fanatic we hear the same declaration of domination over and enslavement of non-Muslims, including the takeover of America, Britain and Europe. Next we see the infamous signs, "Islam will dominate the world" and "Freedom go to hell." The juxtaposition is obvious: Islam is slavery - and we are all to be enslaved under Islam. We next see the phrase "The Netherlands under the spell of Islam," with an image of two minarets in the background. A number of images appear demonstrating the Islamization of Holland: E.g., an imam saying that "the mosque will be part of the government of Holland," along with a woman clad in a full black burkha pushing a baby stroller. We see a frightening chart of the growth of Muslims in the Netherlands - an explosion within the last two decades. An apparently Dutch Muslim man is shown enthusiastically saying that he will kill his mother and sister for having sex with "someone else." He emphasizes that he will "absolutely" commit an "honor killing." An imam states that "adultery" and "homosexuality" are "crimes" in Islam. A postcard is shown with the many symbols of Islam in Holland, saying in Dutch, "Greetings from the Netherlands." We next hear commentary in Arabic spoken in Dutch mosques essentially calling for the end of Western civilization and all it stands for, as well as advocating the stoning of women who "commit adultery." We see two young "gays" in Iran being hung by the necks, with the question, "The Netherlands in the future?" Following are disturbing images of Muslim children whose heads have been sliced open for the vile "celebration" of Ashoura, again with the question, "The Netherlands in the future?" The same question attends horrifying images of girls and women being subjected to the cruel and brutal "cultural tradition" of female genital mutilation, which is most often done in the name of Islam. Women beheaded, hung and shot in the name of Islam are also shown. Newspaper headlines with a tiny fraction of the thousands of atrocities committed in the name of Islam over the past decade are next shown. Freedom of speech and democracy are denounced, stating, "Islam is our alternative." More nauseating signs of the takeover of Holland by Islamic fundamentalism: "Honor killings" have exploded. Schools close on Muslim holidays. Elementary schools now have "jihad lessons." Students are offered a "free trip to Mecca." Requests are made to teach Turkish in public schools. Foreign imams are given special entry visas. The murderer of Theo van Gogh says, "My successors are ready." More headlines highlight how large a segment of the Dutch Muslim population is ready to destroy Western culture, with the Palestinian terrorist organization Hamas freely allowed to proselytize in Holland. Next we see headlines of the vilification of homosexuals by Muslims in Holland, with imams "legalizing violence against gays" and advocating throwing them from tall buildings. Other signs are given of the Islamization of Holland, including allowing genital mutilation and depriving women of medical attention, as well as special Muslim investment or "halal-funding." Finally, we are reminded that Al-Qaeda has issued a death penalty fatwa against Geert Wilders, the maker of this succinct and effective expose of Muslim murder and mayhem. The bottom line, we are told: The Koran is a "license to kill." We see a hand turning a page of the Koran, with the sound of a page being torn out of a book. We are informed, however, that the sound was actually that of a page being torn out of a phone book, with the ending remarks: "For it is not up to me, but to Muslims themselves to tear out the hateful verses from the Quran. "Muslims want you to make way for Islam, but Islam does not make way for you. "The Government insists that you respect Islam, but Islam has no respect for you . "Islam wants to rule, submit, and seeks to destroy our Western civilization." We are reminded of Nazism being defeated in Europe in 1945 and Communism in 1989, with the warning, "Now, the islamic ideology has to be defeated." "Stop Islamisation. "Defend our freedom." The parting shot might be deemed amusing - the now famous image of Mohammed wearing the turban-bomb, this time with the fuse lit - were it not so true and so frightening. (NB: I am also well aware of Geert Wilders's long and passionate association with Israel. While he may therefore be receiving assistance in staying alive, from the quality of this movie, I highly doubt that there was any great "propaganda" effort or money put into it. The Muslim world frankly does not need any spin on it to make it appear unattractive and frightening - all one need do is study history and the fundamentalist Muslim nations to know that what is being portrayed in this movie represents reality.) Geert Wilders's "Fitna: The Movie" The original LiveLeak.com version was first disabled due to "very serious threats" against staff members. It was briefly reactivated after security measures were taken. It was then deleted again "due to copyright issues", probably based on the Muhammad-bomb cartoonist's legal threats. It is supposed to uploaded again "shortly." http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=720_1363273617 english-patriot33 A Geert Wilders production....Fitna (review) islam, terrorism, islam not compatable with humanity, outlaw islam,
