It seems “Man’s best friend” is no friend of radical Islamists.

Creeping Sharia, Yet Again

Bill Muehlenberg 

Hot on the heels of my public debate with a leading Muslim last week, plenty more examples of what I warned about in my talk are coming to light. Indeed, there are far too many to choose from, so let me just highlight three examples of how the religion of peace is not quite living up to its own PR.

The first two examples come out of the UK. The first has to do with the very worrying trend of a rise in ‘honour’ crimes. As the Guardian reported this week, women are experiencing a big rise in attacks associated with honour killings and retaliation.

The article begins this way:

“The number of women and girls in the UK suffering violence and intimidation at the hands of their families or communities is increasing rapidly, according to figures revealing the nationwide scale of ‘honour’ abuse for the first time.

“Statistics obtained under the Freedom of Information Act about such violence – which can include threats, abduction, acid attacks, beatings, forced marriage, mutilation and murder – show that in the 12 police force areas for which comparable data was available, reports went up by 47% in just a year.

“The figures, shared with the Guardian by the Iranian and Kurdish Women’s Rights Organisation (Ikwro), also reveal that a small number of forces – including four in Scotland – are still not collecting data on how often such violence occurs.

“The 39 police forces that gave Ikwro figures recorded 2,823 incidents in 2010. Ikwro estimates that another 500 crimes in which police were involved were committed in the 13 force areas that did not provide data. But this is likely to be only the tip of the iceberg, campaigners say, as so many incidents go unreported because of victims’ fears of recriminations.”

The article also contains the story of one such poor woman:

It always starts as a small Ripple: Creeping Sharia

This is so wrong.

Man bans are spreading as two more council functions are declared off-limits because it is "not appropriate" for men to mix with Muslim women.

And in a surprise twist, VCAT backed the latest bans, declaring there was no discrimination and councils no longer needed to apply for exemptions

I thought it was all about assimilation and not separation?

So at what point do we say enough is enough? Are we soon going to be warned that certain neighbourhoods just like in the UK will become persona non grata to non-muslims?

Make no mistake; Creeping Sharia is happening here too.

Our Censors At Work, Again

Bill Muehlenberg looks at the smears against Senator Cory Bernardi proposing to bring Geert Wilders to speak:

Sack him! Kick him out of the Party! This is an outrage! No political party should allow such contemptible behaviour! He must be disciplined at once! Dump this creep! Wow, so what are all these frenzied calls all about? Are we finally getting serious about that Labor Party sleaze character, Craig Thomson and his prostitution scandal?

I wish. Instead we have something apparently much more horrendous. You see, a Liberal Senator actually wants to bring a freedom fighter to speak here. Someone who has taken a courageous stand for freedom, and who has warned about the very real dangers of the Islamists, and their war against the West.

I refer to Senator Cory Bernardi (SA) and his proposal to bring Dutch politician and defender of freedom, Geert Wilders to speak here. This has got Labor and its sycophantic MSM supporters in an uproar. 

So let me see if I got this straight: Labor and the MSM think ugly sex scandals involving Labor MPs are just fine, but daring to allow freedom of speech and a warning to the West about jihad by stealth is beyond the pale. Talk about inverted values and a sickness of the soul.

Note how the Melbourne Age introduces this story: “Ultra-conservative Liberal senator Cory Bernardi has provoked outrage by offering to help controversial anti-Islam Dutch politician Geert Wilders during his visit to Australia.”

“Ultra-conservative”? Gee, he sounds like he must be a Nazi. I wonder why the Age never calls a lefty an “ultra-radical”. Only conservatives it seems are ultra. So what makes him so evil? Well, he is pro-faith, pro-life, and pro-family. That makes anyone an evil Nazi who should obviously be crucified, in the eyes of the leftist controlled MSM.

Egyptian Sheikh Threaten Christian Extermination and calls for Worldwide Sharia

Via The Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI)

On August 13, 2011, the Egyptian daily Roz Al-Yousef published an interview with Sheikh 'Adel Shehato, a senior official in Egyptian Islamic Jihad (EIJ), who, on March 23, 2011, was freed from prison in the wake of the Egyptian revolution. He was imprisoned in 1991 upon returning from a three-year sojourn in Afghanistan.

In the interview, Shehato expressed complete opposition to democracy "because it is not the faith of the Muslims, but the faith of the Jews and Christians." He said that although the youth of the Arab revolutions have not declared the implementation of shari'a as one of their goals, the mujahideen nonetheless identify with their aspiration to overthrow the Arab rulers, whom they had always considered "infidels who must be killed because they do not rule according to the shari'a." He added, however, that "once Allah's law is applied, the role of the people will end and Allah will reign supreme." He went on to say that although he supports Al-Qaeda's ideology, shari'a law would not be enforced by violence but by da'wa (preaching), whereas violence would be used only against the infidel Arab rulers.

Shehato said that if the mujahideen came to power in Egypt, they would launch a campaign of Islamic conquests aimed at subjecting the entire world to Islamic rule. Muslim ambassadors would be appointed to each country, charged with calling upon them to join Islam willingly, but if the countries refused, war would be waged against them. He also described the nature of the Islamic state to be established in Egypt: there would be no trade or cultural ties with non-Muslims; tourist sites at the pyramids, the Sphinx, and Sharm Al-Sheikh would be shut down "because the tourists come [there] to drink alcohol and fornicate," and all tourists wishing to visit Egypt would be required to comply with the conditions and laws of Islam; all art, painting, singing, dancing, and sculpture would be forbidden, and all culture would be purely Islamic.

More of the same from the religion of peace and tolerance.

Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood Declares Jihad on Bikinis and Alcohol

Sunbathing in Alexandria may soon be a thing of the past, at least if some Egyptian Islamist politicians have their way.

Egypt's tourism industry has suffered a severe blow since the outburst of anti-regime demonstrations in January. But that did not stop the Freedom and Justice Party, the political wing of the Muslim Brotherhood, from demanding stricter regulations over what tourists can do and wear while visiting the country. The party is urging officials to ban skimpy swimwear and the consumption of alcohol on Egyptian streets.

"Beach tourism must take the values and norms of our society into account," Muhammad Saad Al-Katatny, secretary-general of Freedom and Justice, told Egyptian tourism officials on Monday. "We must place regulations on tourists wishing to visit Egypt, which we will announce in advance."

The call for new strictures on tourists comes as Egypt debates the role of Islam in the post-Mubarak era. Freedom and Justice is competing in elections scheduled for this autumn for parliament and opinion polls show a majority of Egyptians favor a greater use of Islamic law and mores. But a vocal minority worries that Egypt risks becoming an Islamic republic.

"This is how things began in Iran," Hani Henry, a psychology professor at the American University in Cairo, told The Media Line. "The moderate youth wanted to implement changes, but the mullah's hijacked the revolution. The same thing is now happening here in Egypt with the Muslim Brotherhood. It makes me sick to my stomach."

The New Get Out of Jail Free Card - Wear a Burka

Ms. Matthews, 47, from Woodbine, in Sydney's southwest, had been sentenced to six months in jail for making a deliberately false statement that a policeman tried to forcibly remove her burqa because he was a racist.

Ms Matthews avoided jail because her identity could not be proven.

Judge Clive Jeffreys noted that he could not be certain that it was Ms Matthews who made the statutory declaration complaining about the officer who stopped her car because the person who handed the document in to the police station wore a burqa.

More than a dozen Muslim supporters linked arms and began chanting "Allah Akbar" as they stormed out of Downing Centre Court with Mrs Matthews concealed behind them.

Mrs Matthew's lawyer Stephen Hopper defended their actions saying: "They are obviously happy with the result and are expressing it in a way that is culturally appropriate to them."

Tempers rose and they began jostling with police after several members of the group attacked cameramen.

Amazingly...

Police Minister Mike Gallacher revealed that police do not currently have the legal power to require women to show their face if the women refuse on religious or cultural grounds.
