Un-be-freaking-lievable! Dave Kasper at Medienkritik blogs out of Germany and keeps an eye on that nation's left-wing press. The latest lunacy out of Germany is a show broadcast on Germany's largest state-run television station which alleges that the Bush family was really behind 9/11.

Throughout the mystery the woman was chased by groups of unidentified villains who were out to kill her because she had a CD with photographic evidence of the Boston hijacker who got away. The subtext of the plot was her explicitly stated allegation that 9-11 was instigated by the Bush family for oil and power. The hit men were CIA/FBI types and the TV audience is led to believe they were the ones who killed the pilot and were now after the woman to insure her story would never be known. The conclusion of the mystery has the detectives believing her story as she escapes the CIA by fleeing to an unnamed Arab country.

The first rule of Googlefight is we don't talk about Googlefight. Willisms has a good post here on Bush vs. Chirac, but it doesn't answer the important question: who would win in a fight, Bush or Chirac?* Googlefight answers that question. And the winner is: more...

Here is the e-mail (with thanks to Italian blogger KrilliX) for the fascist who is prosecuting Oriana Fallaci for daring to speak out against the Islamification of Europe.

Armando Grasso
tribunale.bergamo@giustizia.it

Here is my letter

Sir,
You are a fascist for prosecuting a women for exercising her right of free speech.

I stand in solidarity with Ms. Fallaci and beg you to also prosecute me. I have said much worse about Islam that she has.

For instance, I have publicly called Mohammed a child molester since the most reliable Hadiths claim he married his last wife Aisha at the age of six and raped her at the age of nine.

Also, as we speak, I am burning a copy of the Koran. A shit stained copy of the Koran, I might add, since I have recently taken to using its pages for toilet paper. I have no excuse for this obvious act of desecration other than to provoke a response from Islamofascists and their European dhimmis (like you) bent on extinguishing liberty.

If you call yourself a man then you will immediately indict me for 'crimes' much worse than Ms. Fallaci is charged with and begin extradition hearings.

--
Dr. Rusty Shackleford
www.mypetjawa.mu.nu

Let me make something perfectly clear: I do not hate Muslims. I do not believe Muslims go to hell. I do not believe Muslims are bad people.

What I am is a lover of liberty.

What I hate about Islam is not what most Christians hate about Islam. What I hate about Islam is that it seems to be anti-libertarian. I could care less if Muslims want to condemn me to hell. Most Christians also believe I am going to hell. Thank you one and all for your concern for my eternal soul.

What I do object to is Muslims using the law to put people in prison (or worse) for exercising basic human rights such as the right to say bad things about, well, Islam.

I doubt if I represent what most Americans think, but I can say without reservation that I for one do not hate Muslims. But I do hate Islam. I also do not hate communists, but I do hate Communism. Islam in its historical and mainstream manifestation is every bit as evil as Communism was. It quashes the individual. It makes him a slave to the religious community.

Even liberal Islamic law is still Islamic law.

I have been told that thousands of slave owners were very nice. Despite the law, they educated their slaves, provided good food and shelter (certainly better than many free smallholders had), did not break up families, and allowed them a great deal of freedom of movement and worship. But no matter how pleasent the master may seem he is still the master. A happy slave is still a slave.

I will not be a willing participant in the Islamification of Europe. Too many Americans died to free the Continent from the slavery of Fascism. Countless billions of American dollars were spent protecting the Continent from the slavery of Communism.

We are now engaged in a great war of ideas. This war is not between Christians and Muslims. It is a war between freedom and Islam. It is a war of ideas. We cannot afford to lose this war.

While others are focusing on the veracity of the Koran story, let me pause to say, "So what?" What if the story is true? What does that mean exactly? So a dipshit 21 year old soldier flushes a copy of the Koran? It might offend people, but who has he hurt? No one.

UPDATE: Ron Wright has similar thoughts.

UPDATE II: McQ too.

PS- more...

2 The big deal probably is that she's publishing an anti-Muslim book in a time of EUs Muslim country invasion. (membership negotiations with Turkish Cyprus, Turkey, Morocco, Albania and (Former Yugoslavian Republic of) Macedonia) Nothing is allowed to mess with the EUs plans of continental domination, so naturally these voices of pro-Americanism and crusades must be silenced so we don't have to adjust any behaviour when the Muslims submit to EUs command.

6 And to my country, Fascism brought nothing but a chance to get lost land back from Soviets, and thanks to Hitler forcing us to prove our might once more, the Communists became quite peaceful, and useful business assosiates. You should've kept your artificial noses out of it, so they could've fallen peacefully on their own, and we could've benefited more of their distress. If you wouldn't have messed with them they wouldn't have wasted all their effort on war machinery and space exploring instead of economy, wellfare and agriculture. I don't see anything wrong with Sosialism. I see greedy people who destroyed a great goal, just because they didn't want to have a world where they got no power with their money and resources. And before you start saying: "but the people in Soviet countries were suffering and being oppressed, blaa blaa blaa", I say it's your fault for declaring yourself their enemy and opposing to everything they tried to do, and in that way forcing them to use everything they had to defend from you instead of creating their ideal society. Yes, Stalin was an asshole, but you could've just killed him back in 1946 instead of increasing your military expenditures.

Posted by: greg at May 26, 2005 02:43 PM (/+dAV)

14 Hey! I've been to Turkey, and everything was fine there. Their Islam is just like North European Protestant Christianity: As long as you don't start mocking it out loud in public places you can say anything want about it without consequences. Besides, we 'knocked off' several 'Stalins', pretty much every single one that dared leave Moscow, but since Stalin had many brothers and several other look-a-likes we could've used some help at the UN conventions the actual Stalin visited (you know, not being from a UN country (joined somewhere in the mid-1950s) makes it pretty difficult to sneak in with a rifle)

Posted by: A Finn at May 26, 2005 02:49 PM (lGolT)

15 Besides, Turkish prisons have only isolation chambers, not some stupid buttfucking breaks outside when the big bad bikers and steroid apes rape your average fraud convict. And Islam is strickly against gay, so gay people in jails would be (tortured? No, they're adjusting to EU regulations) put in a dark room for months.

I have some buddies who have been to prison. Most raping is done by the "Disciples". The "White Pride" biker gangs like Hell's Angels, Outlaws, Storm Riders will be the ones you pay or join to protect your rectum from Disciples, Crypts and Bloods. I grew up around a bunch of Outlaw's(joliet chapter) Former President was from my hometown. They came in every summer for a week or two and parents rushed to take their kids in while they snuck back out the back door to wave at the Harleys. Not one bad incident. Most were pretty nice guys. You wouldn't want to cross them, but have a beer with them. No problem. Just people like anyone else. Except they might have their old lady dance for you if they like you.

Bush was coming to town last year, he decided he would be on hand to protest the president's economic policies. Neel and his sister made a hand-lettered sign - The Bush family must surely love the poor! They have made so many of us! - and headed for a road where the motorcade would pass. But he never got to display his sign for Bush to see. As he stood among milling groups of Bush supporters, he was approached by a local police detective and told that he and his sister had to move to a "free-speech area" for protesters, on orders of the U.S. Secret Service. "He pointed out a relatively remote baseball diamond that was enclosed in a chain-link fence," Neel recalls. "I could see these people behind the fence, with their faces up against it, and their hands on the wire. "It looked more like a concentration camp than a free-speech area to me, so I said, `I'm not going in there. I thought the whole country was a free-speech area.'" After refusing several times to go to the area, he was handcuffed and arrested on a charge of disorderly conduct. http://reclaimdemocracy.org/weekly_2003/free_speech_denied_protest_pens.html et cetera, et cetera, et cetera Some Democracy!

32 Gerg and A Finn, I have nothing against protesters in general. For the most part, they're conscientious people who simply want to make a statement. However, a few bad apples have used the "protest" as a tool to become verbally and physically abusive and our police, in most cases, are simply trying to prevent a situation from escalating. Their job is to protect us. Too often those who protest want to be accepted as excersizing their right of free speech and when another uses their right to tell them to shut up, we end up with the protester expecting a double standard to be employed. Separating these protesters from the general audience who want to hear a certain message is often the only recourse to avoid confrontation. Many of these instances whereby a protester wears a t-shirt with their message is removed from the festivities has done more than just wear a t-shirt. These instance are often not reported as they actually happen and people become more agitated as a result. Sometimes they are actually removed wrongly, but I would venture to guess it's not as often as we're led to believe. I've always been of the mind that, if I wasn't actually there, I can't pass judgement on the individual or individuals involved. We have some here too that will pass judgement without knowing the facts or being there simply because they already have a preconceived notion of events or people's feelings.

35 greg, the problem with these protesters is that often they're really just rioters playing as protesters. If they can't self-police the more violent elements in their midst, then we'll send in the cops with the bean bags and microwaves to disperse them. That's not anti-democratic.

Posted by: Carlos at May 27, 2005 09:42 AM (8e/V4)

Once they gain entrance to the event, they scream slogans over and over denying the speaker and the people who came the chance to hear the message. Or, they are asked to leave. Either way, it’s a public relations win for them because they are given a free pass by the MSM to pull these tactics.

(she had reached puberty). By the way he did NOT rape her. SHE was his wife, but at the age of nine she was still at her fathers house. i think u should get ur facts checked before you start being racist. If u think dat islam is not the true religion then i think you should tell me dat hw cum the quran is the only book that hasnt been changed from the day it was revaeled till now. Atleast our book is originally from the angel unlike yours people wrote it themselves. if u think the bible is right then tell me how come saint paul has written in one of his letters dat "religious law is a curse and jesus christ came to relieve us from that curse." but in the old testament the religious law is that u shouldnt steal, forcinate, shouldnt give trouble to ur neighbour, shouldnt disobey parents,etc. but wen the entire religious law is a curse, it will also be a curse to obey these injunctions as these injunctions are also the part of the religious law and the very core of it. If what Saint Paul said is correct then Christians should also steal, forcinate and commit other such sins. Isn't that kind of weird. In one place it says something and in a different it denies it. DO YOU CALL THAT A TRUE RELIGION???

The number one place for Dutch chicks to emmigrate to? The San Fernando Valley.

But seriously, a contributing factor for the socialist paradise's demise is the fact that Dutch society is being overwhelmed by Muslim immigrants who do not share the same values of tolerance and openess.

Hell, the Brits are leaving in droves to move to other countries in Europe because of interest rates, taxes and maybe even the Muslim faction. The reason many say they're leaving is that they're tired of immigrants coming to the UK and not integrating with the population and learning the local customs, etc. Then what do they do? The Brits move to another country, cluster around those like themselves and don't integrate or learn the local customs, etc. Way to go, huh?

5 I think this story is overhyped: 50,000 emigrants from a population of 16,000,000 doesn't amount to "droves." I also think it is significant that most are headed to Canada, Austrailia, and New Zealand which are all closer to welfare states than the US. What is more interesting is the reported figure that 28% are *thinking* of leaving. I have no idea how accurate that figure is.

10 Let's see, Dutch citizens moving to America, Illegal Immigrants dying to get across the border to America, Somalians moving to America, Islander's moving to America, Japanese moving to America, Middle easterner's moving to America. Chinese moving to America, Russians moving to America. If we are such a horrible country (according to the loony left), then why are people risking a great deal to move here and intigrate?

11 Well, no other English-speaking (the easiest foreign language for most) country wants them because according to their standards there is something wrong with them and they are not wanted. Or then their lives have failed in their native lands and they want to start again in a country where they can easily blend in the variety of peoples and start a life of crime.

So let me get this straight, the French are taking away Miss France, Laetitia Bleger's, title for posing in Playboy? And she's not even nude! As Erik Svane says about this, "If this had happened in the United States, it's a sure bet that Europe's intellectuals and pundits would be besides themselves in bewailing, mocking, and shrieking about American puritanism and hypocrisy." Indeed.

Both Rob at Say Anything and Double Viking have the pics. Despite Rob's warnings about them, they are not really nude. A kind of see through top in one of the pics, but it's the kind of stuff you see in women's fashion magazines all the time.

Leftists love to talk about the Scandinavian countries as if they were utopias on earth. I'm just beginning to see their point. Via QandO this story out of Norway:

Norway's Supreme Court supported decisions refusing Conoco Phillips the right to fire two workers who surfed the Internet for pornographic images on company time.

The two workers on the Ekofisk field lost their jobs after being caught peeping at porn on the job in the summer of 2002. The pair took their case to court and won at both the municipal and appeals level, NRK (Norwegian Broadcasting) reports...

The Supreme Court has ruled that the firings were not justified and have awarded the two NOK 250,000 (USD 40,000) each in compensation.

Now excuse me as I go do some 'research' at Whitehouse.com.

It's not exactly what you think. This is a procedural resignation, he'll be back as PM right-away. Guardian:

Silvio Berlusconi, faced with mounting criticism over Italy's sluggish economy and its involvement in Iraq, resigned Wednesday as premier but vowed to quickly form a stronger new Cabinet to restore confidence in his leadership.

Resigning and then immediately shuffling the Cabinet is an old trick of Italy's complicated political system, and has been used by premiers to strengthen faltering coalitions.

Berlusconi, who had presided over Italy's longest-serving government since World War II, had so far resisted the move, sensing it would dent his image as a new-style politician. On Wednesday, he suggested he would have preferred not to resign.

Via Robert Spencer who got the article from Norwegian Kaffir (who's politically incorrect views might just get him a fatwa if he's not careful). IRNA (the English language propaganda arm of the mad mullahs of Iran):

A group of Muslims in the Dutch city of Amsterdam plans to set up the Muslim Democratic Party (MDP) at the end of May.

The party wants to compete in the upcoming local government elections in five cities and later also in the parliamentary elections, Dutch news agency ANP has reported.

The MDP will promote the interests of Muslims in the Netherlands, the agency quoted spokesman M. Jabri saying.

The initiators are currently holding talks with known and unknown Muslims to get the party going in the big cities.

Contacts are also being sought with non-Muslims, 'so that we have a balance within the executive', said Jabri.

"It is a matter of people who think the same way politically." The MDP has drawn up a provisional manifesto with the outline of the movement. Islam forms the basic point here.

The Palestinian question is also raised in the manifesto.

"The MDP declares solidarity with the peoples of the south in their fight against the neo-colonialism that is steered by the US and neo-liberal Europe, but also against the occupation and aggression of the US, its lackeys and internal dictators," according to the manifesto, quoted by ANP.

And as the umma prepares to form its first political party on the continent, the deep ties betweem the mosques and radical Islamists in Europe are revealed in this Middle East Forum article by Lorenzo Vidino
(via No Pasaran):

But the Middle East is only one part of the Muslim world. Europe has become an incubator for Islamist thought and political development. Since the early 1960s, Muslim Brotherhood members and sympathizers have moved to Europe and slowly but steadily established a wide and well-organized network of mosques, charities, and Islamic organizations. Unlike the larger Islamic community, the Muslim Brotherhood's ultimate goal may not be simply "to help Muslims be the best citizens they can be," but rather to extend Islamic law throughout Europe and the United States

Four decades of teaching and cultivation have paid off. The student refugees who migrated from the Middle East forty years ago and their descendants now lead organizations that represent the local Muslim communities in their engagement with Europe's political elite. Funded by generous contributors from the Persian Gulf, they preside over a centralized network that spans nearly every European country.

These organizations represent themselves as mainstream, even as they continue to embrace the Brotherhood's radical views and maintain links to terrorists. With moderate rhetoric and well-spoken German, Dutch, and French, they have gained acceptance among European governments and media alike. Politicians across the political spectrum rush to engage them whenever an issue involving Muslims arises or, more parochially, when they seek the vote of the burgeoning Muslim community.

But, speaking Arabic or Turkish before their fellows Muslims, they drop their facade and embrace radicalism. While their representatives speak about interfaith dialogue and integration on television, their mosques preach hate and warn worshippers about the evils of Western society. While they publicly condemn the murder of commuters in Madrid and school children in Russia, they continue to raise money for Hamas and other terrorist organizations. Europeans, eager to create a dialogue with their increasingly disaffected Muslim minority, overlook this duplicity.

Medien Kritik notes that Germany's left-leaning anti-American party loses ground in a regional election. Mixed results in Europe this weekend, though, as the Socialist party wins 120 out of 230 seats in Portugal. Incoming Socialist Prime Minister Jose Socrates was against the US led invasion of Iraq. He replaces pro-American Pedro Santana Lopes.
