Immigrants Required to Tolerate 'Bad Gay' Film in Netherlands

New immigrants to the Netherlands will be required to view a film which shows men kissing and topless women on the beach as a test of tolerance. Swap the two guys kissing for two hot chicks, and I might emmigrate! AP:

The camera focuses on two gay men kissing in a park. Later, a topless woman emerges from the sea and walks onto a crowded beach. For would-be immigrants to the Netherlands, this film is a test of their readiness to participate in the liberal Dutch culture.

If they canÂ’t stomach it, no need to apply.

Despite whether they find the film offensive, applicants must buy a copy and watch it if they hope to pass the NetherlandsÂ’ new entrance examination.

Hat tip: Bill Dauterieve

Now that's a great idea for weeding out those that would threaten out liberties without actually saying 'radical Muslims need not apply'!

Death Threats Against Anit-Islamist Manifesto Signers

I hope this counts as a fatwa since I was one of the first bloggers to get on board the manifesto after Peter at Agora gave me the heads up. Agora:

According to one of the signers, the French writer Caroline Fourest, the threat was made this Saturday on the website ummah.net. It mentions a whoÂ’s who guide and a list of targets scheduled for termination.

The group urges its adherents to take their time but says it should happen soon. It adds that it isnÂ’t necessary to first have a Fatwa from a religious leader, such as the one Ayatollah Khomeini issued in 1989 against Salman RushdieÂ’s life for having offended the religion.

“The threat is simply not acceptable. Our Manifesto urges to resistance by means of ideas. But the Islamists have answered with threats of violence. A proof - if such was necessary - of their rejection of democratic debate and of their totalitarianism,” Caroline Fourest says.

She adds that the Manifesto isnÂ’t against Islam but against Islamism and the IslamistsÂ’ using the religion politically to oppress, for example, Freedom of Speech. She emphasises that the signers will not be subdued by threats.

As always, read the rest here.

Islamic Scholar: "Osama bin Laden Should Lead Islamic State"

I always dig it when people misunderstand Huntington's Clash of Civilizations hypothesis. People often believe that Huntington--and now the neocons--want a Clash of Civilizations. That this clash is their goal. In fact, Huntington and others are not arguing that a Clash of Civilizations should happen, but that it is happening.

An amazingly honest response from a leading Islamist in Norway continued below. Agora: more...
