"I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction." Those prophetic words come from Obama's biography. Bare Naked Islam brought this interesting, fact filled video to my attention. In it we learn that one of the rebel leaders was captured and held by our armed forces engaged in the battle against "Islamic extremism" aka al-Qaida. We learn that the areas home to the rebels are heavily infested with "Islamic extremism" and supplied many of the suicide bombers who murdered civilians and our forces in Iraq.
We learn that those tribes are racists who are likely to exact genocidal revenge on Blacks who supported the regime. Clinton sent our armed forces to fight on the wrong side in Serbia. Obama sent them to fight on the wrong side in Libya. There is no right side in Libya; we should let them kill each other without interference, then bomb the winners. No matter who wins in Libya, the outcome will leave that nation and its oil wealth in the hands of our enemies. The current policy is not only stupid and wasteful, it is treasonous. We are risking lives and wasting treasure in the wrong place, on the wrong side of a power rivalry that is none of our business and can have no good outcome.Wednesday, March 30, 2011

Defamation of Islam: Snatching Defeat from the Jaws of Victory
While USCIRF, Human Rights First and Christian news media dance around their bonfires emitting victory whoops, those with more common sense analyze the resolution and wait for the backfire. I bring you tidings of the first backfire from International Islamic News agency . [Emphasis added.]
The OIC did not back down, it was Western Civilization that lost the previous votes and made a major concession. The new resolution maintains the same goals as its predecessors.
Return to http://www.eyeontheun.org/assets/attachments/documents/Draft_Resolution_Defamation_Religions.pdf, which passed in the HRC last year and study ¶14, 15 & 16. Exactly what are they demanding? For those lacking the patience & diligence to do the research, here is my blog post detailing it: Defamation of Religions UNHRC March 25 ’10. The tactical objective of the series of resolutions is national & international legislation criminalizing all questioning and criticism of Islam.
That is a clear restatement of the obvious; there was no need to say it.
Can you obtain a clue from Allah's word? From Moe's word?? From Islamic law???
- 2:190. And fight in the Way of Allâh those who fight you, but transgress not the limits. Truly, Allâh likes not the transgressors. [This Verse is the first one that was revealed in connection with Jihâd, but it was supplemented by another (V.9:36)].
- 8:39. And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and polytheism: i.e. worshipping others besides Allâh) and the religion (worship) will all be for Allâh Alone [in the whole of the world ]. But if they cease (worshipping others besides Allâh), then certainly, Allâh is All-Seer of what they do.
- 9:29. Fight against those who (1) believe not in Allâh, (2) nor in the Last Day, (3) nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allâh and His Messenger (4) and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (i.e. Islâm) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.
- Sahih Muslim 19.4294 ...If they refuse to accept Islam, demand from them the Jizya. If they agree to pay, accept it from them and hold off your hands. If they refuse to pay the tax, seek Allah's help and fight them...
- Al-Hedaya Volume II, Book IX, Chapter 1, Page 141: The destruction of the sword is incurred by infidels, although they be not the first aggressors, as appears from various passages in the sacred writings which are generally received to this effect.
- This marginal note found on page 140 sums it up nicely: "War must be carried on against the Infidels, at all times, by some party of the Muslims. "
What did Allah command Muslims to do? What did Moe tell them to do? What does Islamic law say about who initiates & perpetuates the conflict? Our attempts at self-defense by raising the alarm are characterized as a "campaign of hostility" but Allah's imperative to conquer us is just, righteous & peaceful. Yeah, right.
Our Secretary of State and an NGO are behind the new tactic. Meet the new resolution, same as the old resolution. Guess what they will introduce to the General Assembly in September.

Hillary Clinton's big lie: Combating Discrimination...
Our secretary of State, SCIRI and Human Rights First are prancing about with excrement faced grins, chortling over their great victory, how they put one over on the OIC and defeated a resolution inimical to our right of free expression.
No, we have no victory; we have a defeat, engineered by those sworn to protect us. Instead, they bent down, lifted Satan's tail and planted a big wet kiss.Secretary of State
Adoption of Resolution at Human Rights Council Combating Discrimination and Violence
The United States welcomes today’s action by the UN Human Rights Council to further the international community’s efforts to combat religious intolerance. The consensus resolution adopted by the Council today represents a significant step forward in the global dialogue on countering intolerance, discrimination, and violence against persons based upon religion or belief. We appreciate the leadership shown by the Organization of the Islamic Conference and member states on today's landmark achievement.
The United States strongly supports today’s resolution, which rejects the broad prohibitions on speech called for in the former "defamation of religions" resolution, and supports approaches that do not limit freedom of expression or infringe on the freedom of religion. This resolution demonstrates a desire to move the debate on these shared challenges in a constructive and affirmative direction. Our divides can be bridged through an effort to listen to each other and to seek common ground. This resolution is a direct result of this type of engagement with the global community.
Today’s adoption of this resolution by the UN Human Rights Council is an important statement that must be followed by sustained commitment. At a time when violence and discrimination against members of religious minorities is all too common, we urge the international community to continue to uphold the freedoms enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. As I said last month in Geneva, we must support those who are willing to stand up on behalf of the rights we cherish.
religious intolerance
Please show me exactly how the resolution combats that; post relevant, verifiable facts in the comments.
discrimination
Such non-Muslim subjects are obliged to comply with Islamic rules that pertain to the safety and indemnity of life, reputation, and property. In addition, they:
-1- are penalized for committing adultery or theft, thought not for drunkenness;
-2- are distinguished from Muslims in dress, wearing a wide cloth belt (zunnar);
-3- are not greeted with "as-Salamu 'alaykum";
-4- must keep to the side of the street;
-5- may not build higher than or as high as the Muslims' buildings, though if they acquire a tall house, it is not razed;
-6- are forbidden to openly display wine or pork, (A: to ring church bells or display crosses,) recite the Torah or Evangel aloud, or make public display of their funerals and feastdays;
-7- and are forbidden to build new churches.
Please show me exactly how the resolution reduces discrimination against Jews & Christians living under the heel of Islam in Pakistan & Egypt. Who shall enforce it and how?
violence against persons
9:29. Fight against those who (1) believe not in Allâh, (2) nor in the Last Day, (3) nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allâh and His Messenger (4) and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (i.e. Islâm) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.
9:123. O you who believe! Fight those of the disbelievers who are close to you, and let them find harshness in you, and know that Allâh is with those who are the Al-Muttaqûn (the pious - see V.2:2).
Please show me exactly how the resolution combats Allah's jihad imperatives. Does it repeal Allah's words? Who will enforce it, and how?
landmark achievement
Instead of having an honest debate and roll call vote which would probably reflect diminished support for the "defamation of Islam" construct, you accepted a dishonest "compromise" which altered the language without changing the meaning and effect of the resolution.
expression and the full respect for the freedom to seek, receive and impart information can
play in strengthening democracy and combating religious intolerance,
Kindly elaborate on the positive role of free expression in combating intolerance. Under the first amendment, I have a right to truthfully write and publish the fact that Islam snctifies rape, pillage & plunder in the process of world conquest. The Secretary General of the resolution's sponsor will tell you that my truthful expression defames Islam and negatively stereotypes Muslims and that you must pass laws to prohibit it.
That excerpt, properly viewed, reveals a great deal. What is uttered about the war cult reflects on its membership, jointly and severally. If Islam mandates genocidal conquest, then what of Muslims? Perhaps the Qur'an will enlighten you.
Believers fight in Allah's cause (world conquest) killing and being killed. Any step they take to enrage or injure a disbeliever is imputed to them as a good deed. We can not expose the evil at the core of Islam without exposing Muslims as the agents of Satan who do and applaud evil acts.
Exactly what are they complaining about? I highlighted the crucial clauses, read it again, read it repeatedly until it sinks in. They express deep concern about "creating and perpetuating negative stereotypes about religious groups". To fully comprehend the enormity of the resolution, you need to recall a boiler plate expression from previous resolutions: "Islam is frequently and wrongly associated with terrorism and human rights violations." Does that ring a bell? Can you connect the dots?
- negative profiling and stigmatization of persons based on their religion
- creating and perpetuating negative stereotypes about religious groups
Those arrogant, condescending Muslims, bureaucrats & politicians are convinced that we are too stupid to comprehend the big lie they are putting over on us.
- incidents of religious intolerance, discrimination and related violence
- negative stereotyping of individuals on the basis of religion or belief
- advocacy of religious hatred
- constitutes incitement to discrimination, hostility or violence
- urges States to take effective measures
"Religious intolerance" is a code phrase for criticism of Islam; "negative stereotyping..." is a parallel code phrase. "Advocacy of religious hatred" is another. "Incitement to discrimination, hostility or violence" is gilding the turd. "Effective measures" is a code phrase for prohibitive legislation to criminalize criticism of Islam.
Recall what they said about Fitna and the Motoons. Recall what they said and are saying about burning the Qur'an. It is not possible to tell the truth about Islam without violating their resolution.
Recall what the Secretary General of the United Nations said about Fitna. Reuters quotes U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon about Fitna:
"There is no justification for hate speech or incitement to violence," Ban said in a statement. "The right of free expression is not at stake here."
By the U.N.'s own definition of terms, exemplified by the Secretary General, the resolution demands that revelation of facts about Islam be criminalized. There is no real, effective difference between the stated offenses:
- defamation of Islam
- denigration of Islam
- vilification of Islam
- negative stereotyping of Islam
- negative stereotyping of individuals based on religion.
The primary demand was and remains the criminalization of all criticism and questioning of the doctrines & practices of Islam.

Combating Defamation of Islam: only the name changed
In the wake of negative publicity over two high level assassinations in Pakistan, the OIC switched tactics, adopting a style suggested by Article 19 and other NGOs. This new style replaces the 'defamation of Islam' concept with 'negative stereotyping', 'stigmatization', 'discrimination' & 'incitement to violence' against 'persons' based on their religion.
If anyone can find a significant difference between 'defamation' and 'negative stereotyping', please post it in the comments.
Recall what Ban Ki-moon said about Fitna, the short documentary by Geert Wilders which put the Qur'anic imperatives and Islamic actions side by side for easy comparison. Ban said it was 'hate speech' & "incitemen'; that the right of free expression was not involved.
Whenever we bring up the fact that Islam sanctifies & mandates genocidal conquest featuring terrorism as a victorious battle tactic or the fact that its 52 year old founder consumated marriage to 9 year old Aisha, we will be accused of 'negative stereotyping' and 'inciting' 'hatred' & 'violence'. The name has changed, the strategy has not: cut the watchdog's throat to prevent him from warning of impending danger.
On March 24, the Human Rights Council passed two resolutions by acclamation:
http://www.eyeontheun.org/assets/attachments/documents/combating_intolerance_neg_steretyping.pdf
http://www.eyeontheun.org/assets/attachments/documents/A_HRC_16_L.10.pdf
My analysis of those resolutions is in these blog posts:
Combating intolerance, negative stereotyping and stigmatization
Freedom of Religion and Belief: For Muslims Only!
Article 19 & SCIRI hail those resolutions as a great victory. In fact they represent a tragic defeat for truth, justice & liberty. They represent victory of al-Taqiyya over truth. A skunk dyed solid color still stinks. A rattlesnake with its rattles cut off remains deadly. These resolutions continue the outrageous demand that Islamic blasphemy law be imposed upon us, making these blog poswts illegal.
If you have any doubts about this fatal fact, consider the statement of Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu, Secretary General of the OIC, concerning International Judge the Koran Day. Here are some highlights.
- “the worst example of extremism”
- need for a normative approach to discourage such practices
- Prof. Ihsanoglu urged the international political elite to take the necessary steps with a view to avoiding recurrence of such acts of extremism that could inflame religious sentiments with grave repercussions towards interfaith harmony as well as global peace, security and stability.
Those are code phrases for international and national blasphemy laws, backed up by intimidating threats of riot and war.
The whole ball of feces is predicated upon two false premises:- "Islam is a religion of peace" and an "equally valid path to God".
- "Muslims have a right to practice Islam".
In fact, Islam is jihad. Jihad is offensive warfare. Jihad is established as the 'original religion' of Islam; commerce & agriculture are stipulated as alternatives to jihad. Abandoning jihad for commerce or agriculture is cursed by Allah.
Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar:
I heard the Apostle of Allah, (peace_be_upon_him) say: When you enter into the inah transaction, hold the tails of oxen, are pleased with agriculture, and give up conducting jihad (struggle in the way of Allah). Allah will make disgrace prevail over you, and will not withdraw it until you return to your original religion.
Therefore, the right to practice Islam includes a right and demonic mandate to conquer us. It is not possible for such an egregious evil to be a right! If we have a right to live, secure in our persons, property and liberty, then there is no right to practice manifest and propagate Islam. Choose one, the two can not coexist.

Reaffirming the commitment made by all States under the Charter of the United
Nations to promote and encourage universal respect for and observance of all human rights

humanity and the contribution that dialogue among religious groups can make towards
improved awareness and understanding of the common values shared by all humankind,
Recognizing also that working together to enhance implementation of existing legal

promotion of a culture of tolerance and peace at all levels, based on respect for human
rights and diversity of religions and beliefs, and decides to convene a panel discussion on
this issue at its seventeenth session within existing resources
- This sentence contains the main change: from combating defamation of Islam to Muslims; from the institution to its members. That is a change in tactics, not strategic objective. The goal remains unchanged: to erect a legislative shield to protect Islam from all questioning and criticism, consistent with Shari'ah, which prescribes the death penaltyA for 'reviling' Allah, Moe & their war cult. B Muslims are supposed to be stigmatized individually by accurately describing the accursed doctrines of the war cult which enslaves them to Satan. Thus, every exposure,questioning & criticism of Islamic doctrines will be held to 'stigmatize' Muslims, an act to be prohibited by law. 'Incitement' will be defined broadly, as in Ban Ki-moon's condemnationC of Geert Wilders' short documentary, Fitna, which exposes, but does not constitute incitement to violence. The MotoonsD a graphic depiction of Islamic jihad-terrorism also exposed incitemenht, but are themselves, not an example of incitement.
- ICCPR, Article 18, ¶2 implies, but does not clearly state, the right to disaffiliate from one religion and adopt another. International consensus on that right is impossible because Islam prescribes the death penalty for apostasy. Refer to the relevant Islamic law.A
- Manifestation & practice of Islam is problematic because participation in offensive wars of conquestE is ordained for MuslimsF and is their essential life missionG. Islam is inseverable, Muslims are not empowered to select what they like and reject the violent parts.H It is not possible to practice Islam peacefully in the long run.
- "Combating religious intolerance" is assumed to be a good thing. Why should anyone tolerate a 'religion' that asserts a demonic mandate--right & duty to conquer him and enslave his widow & orphansI? Why should anyone tolerate a 'religion' that imputes any step taken to "injure" or "raise the anger of" a disbeliever to the believer's credit as a "deed of righteousness"J? The citation of the right to freedom of expression is deliberately deceptive because the intent of this resolution is to criminalize any and every expression that questions or criticizes the doctrines & practices of Islam. How, exactly, will freedom of expression combat intolerance? The unstated premise of this and all similar resolutions, including the preceding resolutions "combating defamation of religions" is that all questioning & criticism of Islam constitutes incitement, intolerance & hate speech.
- Muslims are so "deeply concerned" about 'intolerance" that its holy scripture declares it intensely intolerant of all rival religions so that if anyone chooses another religion, "it will never be accepted of him"K.
- Muslims are so "deeply concerned" about 'discrimination' that their Shari'ah dictates that conquered Christians living under Islamic domination are prohibited from making public processions, prayers or funerals, ringing bells, displaying crosses and building churches.L
- Muslims are so "deeply concerned" about violence based on the victim's religion that their holy scripture , oral tradition & Shari'ah mandate & exemplify offensive wars of conquest against pagans, Jews, Christians & Zoroastrians.M
- How can you be a Muslim while deploring Islam? This is the Acme of hypocrisy or cognitive dissonance! M
- If you deplore the burning of homes & churches and the killing of Christians & other minorities in Nigeria, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Indonesia & Egypt, why do you remain affiliated with the war cult that inculcates hatred and incites those acts?
- Deep concern about "derogatory stereotyping, negative profiling and stigmatization"? Are you concerned about your own scripture and Shari'ah? N
- They are complaining about the Dutch PVV and similar political parties in Austria, Germany Switzerland and elsewhere. They want such parties outlawed.
- They just condemned Islam's own canon of scripture, tradition, biography & jurisprudence!
- That is a demand for legislation outlawing "negative stereotyping', which translates to all questioning and criticism of Islamic doctrines and practices, including this blog post informing you about their outrageous arrogant demands.
- If the interlocutors had sufficient knowledge of Islamic doctrine and courage to expose it, such dialogue might disabuse a few people of the mis-perception that Islam is the "religion of peace".
- This is derived from the boilerplate demands for criminalization of 'defamation of Islam'. It encompasses all negative expression about Islam. Review the exemplary statement by Ban Ki-moon quoted below.C
- They demand that we convert our schools into Islamic indoctrination centers, a process that is already underway.
- Consider the most recent mass casualty attacks, both successful and interdicted. What was the affiliation of the perpetrators? How many of them were not Muslims? Islam inculcates hatred and incites violence. It promises participants admission to a celestial bordelloO and threatens shirkers with eternity in HellP. Muslims are commanded to wage war against us and rewarded for any injury they inflict. Of course it is unreasonable to be suspicious of them. Yeah, right.

Freedom of Religion: Only for Muslims
My email subscription to UNHRC documents turned up an interesting letter from the representative of Cyprus. I keep telling you hat freedom of religion is a one way street, few pay any attention.
Turkey is interfering with Greek Orthodox services in occupied Cyprus. As I keep telling you, if you ain't Muslim, you have no rights. Perhaps this will give you a clue. Turkey is violating the rights of Christians in occupied Cyprus, interfering with church services, arbitrarily and with outrageous regulations.grave human rights violation that occurred on 25 December 2010 in the Orthodox church of
Saint Synesios, in the town of Rizokarpaso located in the part of Cyprus under the military
occupation of Turkey. This issue is directly related to the mandate in accordance with
which the yearly reports on the question of human rights in Cyprus are prepared, as
provided for in Commission on Human Rights resolution 4 (XXXI) and General Assembly
resolution 3450 (XXX).
As confirmed by the United Nations Peacekeeping Force in Cyprus (UNFICYP), on
25 December 2010, security forces of the subordinate local administration of Turkey
interrupted an ongoing religious service, forced the priest to remove his liturgical vestments
and to terminate the liturgy, ordered the churchgoers, mainly Greek Cypriot enclaved
persons, to evacuate, then sealed the church on the pretext that no “permission for the
conduct of mass” had been obtained. At the same time, the occupation regime did not allow
for a Christmas mass to be held in the Church of the Holy Trinity (Ayia Triada) in the
nearby town of Yialoussa. Subsequently, the occupation regime informed UNFICYP that a
new “procedure” had been established, whereby prior authorization should be sought 30
days in advance for all scheduled religious services, except those celebrated on Sundays.
These acts contravene the third Vienna agreement of 2 August 1975, which, inter
alia, explicitly provides that the Greek Cypriots who remained enclaved behind the military
lines in their villages in the north-eastern Karpass peninsula in the aftermath of the Turkish
invasion would be “free to stay” and that they would “be given every help to lead a normal
life, including facilities for education and for the practice of their religion, as well as
medical care by their own doctors and freedom of movement”. Even more serious, these
acts constitute a clear violation of international and European human rights law, including
article 18 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and articles 3 and 9 of the
European Convention on Human Rights.
Lets review the fatal facts:
- Muslims are commanded to wage war against us.
- Our blood is not sacred to Muslims.
- Our property is not sacred to Muslims.
- We have no rights until we become Muslims.
Narrated Anas bin Malik:
Allah's Apostle said, "I have been ordered to fight the people till they say: 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.' And if they say so, pray like our prayers, face our Qibla and slaughter as we slaughter, then their blood and property will be sacred to us and we will not interfere with them except legally and their reckoning will be with Allah." Narrated Maimun ibn Siyah that he asked Anas bin Malik, "O Abu Hamza! What makes the life and property of a person sacred?" He replied, "Whoever says, 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah', faces our Qibla during the prayers, prays like us and eats our slaughtered animal, then he is a Muslim, and has got the same rights and obligations as other Muslims have."
We know blessed well that the Human Rights Council will not do anything to remedy this situation, which will continue to be ignored. They are occupied with more important matters such as condemning Israel for defending itself.
Fort Hood Benefits Act
I received an email from the Wake Up America movement reminding me of an important issue which I should not have forgotten. I raise it here to remind you of it and urge you to take action.
Fort Hood massacre was November 5, 2009 - Now it's 2011 and these bills sit in committee - with no decision nor action yet taken.
Senate bill: Fort Hood Protection Act S316
House bill: Fort Hood Benefits Act HR625
Both these bill are sponsored by Republicans (with 1 Democratic and 1 Independent cosponsor each)
Both bills make the same request - click bill # above to see clear, brief contents.
MAKE YOUR VOICE heard - to move this measure forward now - by contacting your Congressman and Senators. All of US are aware, by now, Congress drags their feet if not prompted to act. So, your voice will matter. Please draw their attention to this overdue resolution in support of HR 625 and S316. The young soldier listed above died when he dived in front of a nurse and saved her life. Surely his, and the families, of others struck down deserve recognition these losses were a result of an act of war. Please FORWARD. BLOG & TWITTER this action and post ON YOUR FORUMS. Thanks! |
If the bills are not enacted into law, the victims and their survivors will suffer an unwarranted injustice, receiving minimal benefits instead of what they justly deserve. Please go immediately to http://www.congress.org/ and send emails to your Representatives & Senators urging them to get into gear and get the legislation out of cmte. and onto the floor for a vote.

This video of the sentencing & execution of a Koran was posted on Facebook. I was not able to view the judgment with Firefox. I was able to log on with Internet Explorer, but the audio quality was poor, and the prosecutor was speaking in Arabic. I did not hear the promised translation. When I attempted to reload the page, the server timed out, which it continues to do more than four hours after the event. I suspect that the site which streamed the video might have suffered a distributed denial of service attack, but one source asserts that they went off line voluntarily. I will continue to try the site periodically in hopes of finding video of the trial. If and when I obtain more information about the trial I will write a new post about it. At present, there are two news stories about the trial and execution fo the Koran.The Straits Times story should guarantee adequate coverage in Asia. It is just a matter of time until the hot heads learn of the execution, then the rabble rousing will begin. How much Hell they will raise is anyone's guess, the less the better. Any violence which might ensue must be blamed on those who incite it and carry it out, not on the acts of judging and burning the Koran.
I will be watching for reaction in and from the Human Rights Council as it enters its last week of deliberation for its 16th session. The council has a full calendar and can not afford to waste time on trifling matters. I doubt that the OIC will view the issue my way. While I do not disagree with the verdict, I dislike the idea of burning the Koran inside a church. Even though it was well contained and isolated from flammable surfaces, the issues of fire hazard, liability, insurance and air pollution would lead me to do it outdoors, in a burning barrel, covered with a fine screen to prevent fly ash from starting brush fires. http://www.ustream.tv/flash/viewer.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flashSaturday, March 19, 2011
International Judge the Koran Day Update
Sunday, March 20, 2011 at 4p.m., the trial will start, lasting for four hours. I doubt that is sufficient time, but it is not up to me. Since Chowderhead backed out, Sheikh Imam Mohamed El Hassan has been recruited to defend the Koran. The prosecution team is loaded with apostates. Ahmed Abaza, the prosecutor, is a convert to Christianity. Mr. Ahmed Paul is an expert witness, another apostate. Sheikh Abdulla Al Sabah, another expert witness, also knows Islam from the inside, being an apostate. According to the press release, the poll is running 69% in favor of immolation. That should make for some fun, because Dr. Jones previously promised that he would not burn the Koran. How will he resolve that conflict? Is he secretly hoping for an acquittal? One of the charges could be difficult to prove: the Koran is accused of inciting murder, rape and terrorist activities. The Koran commands Muslims to engage in perpetual warfare but I am not convinced that meets the legal definition of murder. It does sanction sexual exploitation of slaves and commands terrorism. If you doubt this, visit http://www.quranbrowser.com/ and search for right hands possess; you will find plenty of evidence of rape. A search for strike terror will bring up direct evidence of the last charge.
The event appears to be drawing little attention from the print media, with only two articles showing up this week in a Google search, but it fares far better in the blogs. I know that there is some government interest because my blog posts about it have been read by the local police and the Department of Homeland Security. Even a local television station read my most recent previous update post. There is also some international interest: the OIC Islamophobia Report for February mentioned International Judge the Koran day.For those of us who can not travel to Gainsville, Florida for the event, it will be broadcast live on the internet at www.truthsat.tv.

Universal Periodic Review: High Treason
Now comes the response of the United States to the U.N.H.R.C Universal Periodic Review, delivered orally by the State Department's legal counsel. I would vomit, but I am loath to waste a good meal. Words lack the capacity to express the depth, breadth & intensity of my disgust, but I will give it a good try.
The response appears to be carefully crafted by skilled lawyers, yet it can not pass close examination in the light of objective factual reality. Completion of the First UPR of the United States: Statement by Harold Hongju Koh
So, atheists & Catholics have committed acts of terrorism. Over what timeline? On what scope & scale? How does their recent engagement compare to that of Islam? Where in the holy scripture of any other 'religion' do you discover the functional equivalent of the following listed abominations?
- Intention & sanctification of terrorizing
- 3:151. We shall cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve, because they joined others in worship with Allâh, for which He had sent no authority; their abode will be the Fire and how evil is the abode of the Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrongdoers).
- 8:12. (Remember) when your Lord inspired the angels, "Verily, I am with you, so keep firm those who have believed. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who have disbelieved, so strike them over the necks, and smite over all their fingers and toes."
- Effective imperative to terrorize
- 8:57. If thou comest on them in the war, deal with them so as to strike fear in those who are behind them, that haply they may remember.
- 8:60. Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power, including steeds of war, to strike terror into (the hearts of) the enemies, of God and your enemies, and others besides, whom ye may not know, but whom God doth know. Whatever ye shall spend in the cause of God, shall be repaid unto you, and ye shall not be treated unjustly.
- Celebration of the effects of terrorizing
- 33:26. And those of the people of the Scripture who backed them (the disbelievers) Allâh brought them down from their forts and cast terror into their hearts, (so that) a group (of them) you killed, and a group (of them) you made captives.
- 33:27. And He caused you to inherit their lands, and their houses, and their riches, and a land which you had not trodden (before). And Allâh is Able to do all things.
- 59:2. He it is Who drove out the disbelievers among the people of the Scripture (i.e. the Jews of the tribe of Bani An-Nadir) from their homes at the first gathering. You did not think that they would get out. And they thought that their fortresses would defend them from Allah! But Allah's (Torment) reached them from a place whereof they expected it not, and He cast terror into their hearts, so that they destroyed their own dwellings with their own hands and the hands of the believers. Then take admonition, O you with eyes (to see).
- 59:13. Verily, you (believers in the Oneness of Allah - Islamic Monotheism) are more awful as a fear in their (Jews of Bani An-Nadir) breasts than Allah. That is because they are a people who comprehend not (the Majesty and Power of Allah).
- Sahih Bukhari 1.7.331. Allah made me victorious by awe, (by His frightening my enemies) for a distance of one month's journey.
- Sahih Bukhari 4.52.220. I have been made victorious with terror (cast in the hearts of the enemy),
- Eternal reward for terrorism
- 9:120. It was not becoming of the people of Al-Madinah and the bedouins of the neighbourhood to remain behind Allah's Messenger (Muhammad SAW when fighting in Allah's Cause) and (it was not becoming of them) to prefer their own lives to his life. That is because they suffer neither thirst nor fatigue, nor hunger in the Cause of Allah, nor they take any step to raise the anger of disbelievers nor inflict any injury upon an enemy but is written to their credit as a deed of righteousness. Surely, Allah wastes not the reward of the Muhsinun.
- Terrorism as life's mission
- 9:111. Verily, Allâh has purchased of the believers their lives and their properties; for the price that theirs shall be the Paradise. They fight in Allâh's Cause, so they kill (others) and are killed. It is a promise in truth which is binding on Him in the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel) and the Qur'ân. And who is truer to his covenant than Allâh? Then rejoice in the bargain which you have concluded. That is the supreme success .
Islam, having declared and prosecuted perpetual war against us, is a clear, imminent and persistent threat to our lives, property, prosperity & liberty. Islam, without Muslims, would be harmless. Muslims; believers as defined in 9:111, 49:15 & 8:2 , constitute an imminent threat and should be removed and excluded from our territory.
Periodic Review » Releases » US Response to UN Human Rights Council Working Group ReportU.S. Response to UN Human Rights Council Working Group Report March 10, 2011 Report of the United States of America
Submitted to the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights
In Conjunction with the Universal Periodic Review
Response to the U.N. Human Rights Council Working Group Report A/HRC/IWG.6/9/L9
discrimination against Muslims, Arab Americans, and South Asians. The United States is committed to
addressing negative stereotypes, discrimination and hate crimes through measures such as the creation
of a 911 1 backlash task force, litigation to protect religious freedom including the right of school girls to
wear the hijab, nationwide community outreach, and enforcement of employment discrimination
laws. The United States is taking concrete measures to make border and aviation security measures
more effective and targeted to eliminate profiling based on race, religion, or ethnicity.
10. The following enjoy our support:
- 85.
"The United States is committed to addressing negative stereotypes," The highlighted expression refers directly to the connection between Islamic doctrine/practice and terrorism. In a previous paragraph I outlined the Qur'an ayat which establish terrorism as an intrinsic sacrament of Islam and two hadith which exemplify it. Why is my government "committed to" denying objective factual reality? The policy is a token of suicidal treachery.
While they claim to support the first amendment's free speech clause, they declare a policy directly opposed to it; an excellent exemplar of cognitive dissonance.Prohibit expressly the use of racial profiling in the enforcement of immigration legislation (Mexico); 102. Revoke the national system to register the entry and exit of citizens of25 countries from the Middle-East, South
Asia and North Africa, and eliminate racial and other forms of profiling and stereotyping of Arabs, Muslims and South
Asians as recommended by CERD. (Sudan);
5. The following recommendations enjoy our support:
- 68, 101, and 219, in that profiling — the invidious use of race, ethnicity, national origin or religion — is prohibited under the U.S. Constitution and numerous pieces of national legislation.
What is invidious about recognition of the fact that all of the perpetrators of recent mass casualty acts of terrorism were Muslims, acting in Allah's name? What can be more insane than scrutinizing innocent citizens while ignoring the obvious threat of Islamic affiliation?
against Moslems, and adopt necessary legislation (Iran); 191. Continue to create an enabling climate for religious and cultural tolerance and understanding at the grass roots
level (Indonesia);
6. The following enjoy our support, in part:
- 190. We take effective measures to counter intolerance, violence and discrimination against all members of all minority groups, including Muslims. We cannot support this recommendation, however, to the extent that it asks us to take legislative measures countering insults. Insults (unlike discrimination, threats, or violence) are speech protected by our Constitution.
¶190-191 reflect boilerplate from recent U.N. resolutions "combating defamation of religions". Islamic law prescribes the death penalty for any negative expression about Allah, his Profit & their damnable system of intra-species predation. For the benefit of those who value knowledge over prejudice, I present links to the evidence on which the statement above is based. Rational people will follow them, read the relevant Shari'ah and curse Islam.
- O8.1-2: the penalty for apostasy.
- O8.7: the list of 20 acts entailing apostasy.
- O11.10: applicability of O8.7 to conquered Christians.
- O9.14: the penalty imposed on a Christian who says something "unmentionable" about Islam and its sanctities.
- O9.0-9.9: predation upon the human race.
"Tolerance becomes a crime when applied to evil" It is impossible for a rational and informed person to tolerate Islam and our government should not be attempting to impose irrationality upon us.
