Diogenes: Your search is over.

MEMRI reports:

Egyptian Cleric Safwat Higazi Responds to MEMRI: "Yes, I Am An Antisemite"; If Not for the Arab Rulers, "We Would Devour [The Jews] With Our Teeth"; "We Are Your Enemies… Until The Day Jesus… Descends, Fighting You And Calling To Join Islam.

And his eminence Safwat goes on to state in the same episode of defecation per os:

"Yes, we hate them. Yes, we are hostile to them. By Allah, only our rulers prevent us from getting to you. By Allah, if they let us, we would devour you completely, and we would bite you with our teeth. We would not wait for weapons, for RPGs, or for bullets. If our rulers let us, we would catch you in the street, and we would devour you with our teeth.

These culinary and festive party suggestions have been brought to you by a luminary, and entirely typical proponent, of The Religion of Peace dot org (org here being the Arabic for "I get off on genocide.")

Solidarity

At Gates of Vienna today, the Baron writes:

"Safety in Numbers
by Baron Bodissey
What if other prominent people in the Netherlands decided to imitate Geert Wilders?How many hate-mongers can the Dutch government prosecute at the same time?"

He cites the example of a courageous and common-sensical Dutchman.

Theodor Holman, a columnist for the Amsterdam newspaper Het Parool, by way of support sides with the statements of Geert Wilders. In his column today he writes: “I, Theodor Holman, find the Quran to be as grave as Mein Kampf.” The PVV leader will be prosecuted for the same statement.

Well, I may not be prominent (yet), but I like the idea. Let's all do it.

I, filthykafir (Robert), find the Qur'an a vile disgusting melange of derivative religious practice, superstition, and Jew hatred, all in support of a vicious totalitarian political ideology promoting Arab/Muslim supramacism. I contemptuously denounce it to be more like Mein Kampf than different from it.

There. Spread the word.

Morale Booster

Relayed by Gates of Vienna, these encouraging words from a captured HAMAS terrorist -- apparently an imported jihadi from the nukes-for-peace faction of the Islamic world, Iran.

“Hamas took a gamble. We thought, at worst Israel will come and do something from the air — something superficial. They’ll come in and go out. We never thought that we would reach the point where fear will swallow the heart and the feet will want to flee. You [Israel] are fighting like you fought in ‘48. What got into you all of a sudden?”

In the wake of the Islamic terrorist (is there any other kind?) attacks on Mumbai (Bombay), an excellent new English-language blog has been created by dharmaveer. He "gets it." Here is a sample of his first post, from December 29, 2008.

Check out the whole entry and the blog at the link below.

We live in troubled times. Globally, a violent ideology of Jihad, fully rooted in Islamic theology and carried out throughout Islam's history, is affecting non-muslims.Some nations have recognized where this ideology comes from, and they call a spade a spade. Other countries, such as India, refuse to recognize this threat, mostly for reasons of political gains by certain political parties. They deliberately obfuscate the plain facts by making ridiculous statements like "terrorists have no religion" etc. Unfortunately, they do. That religion is Islam, and in particular a radical, orthodox version of it.

[O]rthodox Islam as an ideology is not peace loving and does not permit peaceful co-existence with other religions. Orthodox Islam seeks to extinguish all other religious beliefs and replace them with Islam. And as long as even a small minority of muslims take their religion's core ideology seriously, there will be jihad upon non-muslims.

The purpose of this blog is to do some straight talking. The people who attack us have been taught to hate us for no reason other than that we are Hindus.

[In Orthodox Islam, Hindus] are hated idolators and polytheists about whom the Kuran and Hadith are very clear: their men must be murdered, their women and children enslaved, and their temples destroyed. This is not just my opinion, but that of all the four schools of sunni Islam - the Shafi, Hanafi, Hanbali, and Maliki. Three of these four schools say that the choice to be put before Hindus is simply "convert to Islam or die." Only one - Hanafi - allows Hindus the right to live, but as third class citizens.

These are plain facts. Obfuscating them, or wishing them away, won't solve the problem. We Hindus must be aware of these facts. Truth must always be told, not hidden.We stress that we have nothing against muslims. We only wish to understand the current Jihad upon Hindus in particular, and all non-muslims in general, in light of (a) the theology of Islam and (b) the history of Islam in the Indian subcontinent, which closely follows the theology of Islam.

[T]his ideology is very much alive. We ignore it at our own peril.

More Encouraging News from dar al Islam

This first morning after the blessed mass of Christ we are pleased to present for your edification, enjoyment, and heartening TWO MORE examples of liberality and dedication to human rights from... guess who?

If you said "The Grand Ummah," you win a BIG prize.

First, courtesy of WorldNet Daily, there emerge blessed tidings of tolerance from the Sharia Capital of the Arab Middle East -- the Gaza Stripped. This is a nifty tale of Islamic interfaith dialog in action. That is followed by a heartwarming story of educational opportunity from our stalwart ally in "the War Against Terrorism," The Peoples Republic of Shariastan. Hat-tip to Morningstar.

Muslim grinches steal Christmas; Christians warned against celebration: 'We are living under a state of fear'

"We were warned not to celebrate in the streets or ring the church bells, otherwise Christians would be targeted. We are living under a state of fear," the Christian leader said."There is nothing we can do about the situation. We don't want to infuriate anyone," he said.

He said he had reason to believe the threats emanated with Jihadia
Salafiya, a Hamas-allied Islamic outreach movement in Gaza that recently announced the opening of a "military wing" to enforce Muslim law. The organization, which is not directly connected to Hamas but publicly supports it, has been suspected in a string of anti-Christian attacks, including the bombing of a Christian bookstore in November 2007 and the murder of the store's manager,
local Christian resident Rami Ayyad.

Contacted by WND, Abu Islam, chief of Jihadia Salafiya, denied making any threats against Christians.Still, Abu Islam commented, "Gaza is a Muslim state. Why do 3,000 Christians need to celebrate
openly in a territory of 1 million Muslims? Any celebrations are clearly for missionary purposes and must not be tolerated."

In the case of Ayyad, who managed the only Christian bookstore in Gaza, his body was discovered riddled with gunshot and stab wounds. Just before his murder, Ayyad, a Baptist, was
publicly accused by Abu Islam’s group of engaging in missionary activities.

Ayyad’s bookstore, owned by the Palestinian Bible Society, was firebombed in April 2007, after which he told relatives he received numerous death threats from Islamists. WND quoted witnesses stating Ayyad was publicly tortured a few blocks from his store before he was shot to death.The witnesses said they saw
three armed men, two of whom were wearing masks, beat Ayyad repeatedly with clubs and the butts of their guns while they accused him of attempting to spread Christianity in Gaza. The witnesses said that after sustaining the beating, Ayyad was shot by all three
men.

ISLAMABAD (AFP)--Taliban extremists in Pakistan's troubled northwest Swat
valley have banned girls from attending school, threatening to kill any female
students, officials said Thursday.

The threat was delivered this week by local Taliban commander Shah Durran in
an address carried on an illegally-run radio station in the area, local
officials told AFP.

"You have until January 15 to stop sending your girls to schools. If you do
not pay any heed to this warning, we will kill such girls," one official quoted
the commander as saying. "We also warn schools not to enrol any female students;
otherwise, their buildings will be blown up."

The mountainous Swat valley was until last year a popular tourist destination
featuring Pakistan's only ski resort.

Durran said local Taliban leaders were determined not to allow girls to
attend school, saying: "We want to enforce the true Sharia in the area --
for this, we are fighting and laying down our lives." Swat residents said
Taliban fighters had already destroyed scores of government-run schools, leading
some to set up private schools in their homes to educate girls.

An official at the Pakistani education ministry said there are about 1,580
schools registered in Swat -- once known for its top-flight schools. But the
official, Naeem Khan, told AFP: "Already Taliban militants have destroyed 252
schools, mainly those where girls and boys were studying together." Education
has suffered badly in
Swat as a result of the ongoing fighting between
Taliban-linked militants and security forces, with only a handful of schools
still open in the region's main city Mingora, Khan
said.

Taliban Threaten To Kill Pakistani Schoolgirls - Officials12-25-08 4:12 AM
EST

My personal candidate for quote-of-the-day goes to the "local Taliban commander," that inestimable champion of equality Shah-Shah-Shah, Shah-Shah Durran: "...stop sending your girls to schools. If you do not pay any heed to this warning, we will kill such girls." And high time to take a stand on the issue, too, I say! Gloria Steinem, Nancy Pelosi, are you listening? This bell tolls for you.
