Obligation to Prohibit Violence Based On Religion

A/C.3/68/L.48 Combating intolerance, negative stereotyping,stigmatization, discrimination, incitement to violence and violence against persons, based on religion or belief continues with reaffirmation of another accursed lie.

Reaffirming also the obligation of States to prohibit discrimination and
violence on the basis of religion or belief and to implement measures to guarantee
the equal and effective protection of the law,

Are Egypt, Pakistan and Indonesia obligated to prohibit and punish violence against Christians and their churches based on the victim's status of not being Muslims?  Who gives a damn about such an obligation? Who enforces it?

    Instead, Muslims implement Allah's Jihad imperative, expressed in Surah At-Taubah 9.123, secondary to 9.29,  to wage war neighboring Jews and Christians.
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).

    Who do Muslims obey: the United Nations which can not enforce its edicts, or Allah who will damn them to eternal Hellfire for not waging war?

Islamophobia: I Slam Islam!

Islamophobia: I Slam Islam! Today's UN email listed a document from The Organization for Defending Victims of Violence whose about us page states that they were founded in Tehran.

    Regular readers of my posts know that I consider every instance of kvetching & caterwauling about Islamophobia as a teachable moment: an opportunity to redouble my condemnation of the world's most evil institution. 

    A/HRC/19/NGO/130 appears to have been composed in another language and translated into English.  I am dipping a few choice floaters from the septic tank for detailed refutation.  Use the link at the beginning of this paragraph if you desire to immerse yourself in the sewage.

incorrect and nonsense interpretation

    Only one man was fully qualified to interpret Islam: the man who "revealed" it.  Moe exemplified Islam in his speech & conduct while not "revealing" the Qur'an.  Exegetes use parallel ayat & relevant hadith to determine what each ayeh means. 

    Tafsir Ibn Kathir is detailed & loquacious but looking up ayat is not an easy task. I suggest using the search engine at http://www.qtafsir.com/ .  Tafsir al-Jalalayn & Tafsir Ibn Abbas are older, less detailed and have pick lists for selecting the surah & ayeh numbers. 

    Moe's "revelations" & sunnah are codified in Shari'ah. Reliance of the Traveller, a 1251 page tome which can be purchased from Amazon, is widely accepted and certified as authentic & accurate by sheikhs at Al-Azhar.  Turn to Book O, Chapter 9 for the damnable details of offensive warfare: its definition, communal obligation, practical application and regulations.

    Risala is the code of the Maliki school of Islamic jurisprudence. It is less wordy and more legible than Reliance. Chapter 30 covers jihad.  Hedaya is the code of the Hanifi school, arcane, dense and printed in an archaic type face.  Volume II, Book IX, Chapter I confirms the offensive & perpetual nature of jihad in stark terms.  The second chapter fills in some gaps concerning jizya: its punitive purpose, substitution for execution & humiliating collection procedure. 

associate “Islam” to “terrorism”

    Why would we think of Islam when terrorism is mentioned?  In the '70s, hijacking airliners & fragging airline terminals were popular activities in various parts of the world.  Who perfected those arts?  Who has been waging a war of terror against Israel for more than sixty years?  Who perpetrated the attacks on New York, London. Madrid, Beslan & Mumbai? 

    Muslims do not want us to learn of the terror nexus in Islam's scripture & tradition but, so long as the First Amendment is in force, I will reveal that connection. Allah said something about the subject. Of course the terror of the day of judgment is irrelevant.  Note the highlighted phrases in the quotes below.

  • 7:4. How many a township have We destroyed! As a raid by night, or while they slept at noon, Our terror came unto them.
    • (How many a township) people of townships (have We destroyed) We tormented! (As a raid by night) or day, (or while they slept at noon, Our terror) Our punishment (came unto them). [Tafsir Ibn Abbas]
  • 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). 
    • Allah then mentioned the defeat of the unbelievers on the Day of Uhud, saying: (We shall cast terror) fear of you such that they run from you (into the hearts of those who disbelieve) the unbelievers of Mecca (because they ascribe unto Allah partners, for which no warrant hath been revealed) either in a Scripture nor taught by a messenger. (Their habitation) their dwelling-place (is the Fire, and hapless the abode of the wrong-doers) the dwelling-place of the unbelievers is the Fire.  [Tafsir Ibn Abbas]
  • 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." 
    • (When your Lord inspired the angels) it is also said that this means: when your Lord commanded the angels, ((saying:) I am with you) I will help you. (So make those who believe stand firm) in war; it is also said that this means: give those who believe the good news of victory. (I will throw) cast (fear into the hearts of those who disbelieve) the fear of Muhammad (pbuh) and his Companions. (Then smite the necks) their heads (and smite of them each finger) each shaped finger. [Tafsir Ibn Abbas]
  • 8:57. Therefore, if you overcome them on the battlefield, deal with them very sternly, so as to strike terror among them, and to serve as a lesson for their successors. Perhaps, they would remember! [Dr. Munir Munshey & Dr. Kamal Omar ] 
    • (If thou comest on them) if you imprison them (in the war, deal with them so as to strike fear in those who are behind them) such that they serve as a lesson to those who are behind them, (that haply they may remember) i.e. take admonition and avoid breaking their treaties. [Tafsir Ibn Abbas]
  • 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 Allah and your enemies, and others besides, whom ye may not know, but whom Allah doth know. Whatever ye shall spend in the cause of Allah, shall be repaid unto you, and ye shall not be treated unjustly.[Abdullah Yusuf Ali]
    • Make ready for them, for fighting them, whatever force you can, the Prophet (s) said that this refers to ‘archers’, as reported by Muslim, and of horses tethered (ribāt is a verbal noun, meaning, ‘restraining them [for use] in the way of God’) that thereby you may dismay, terrify, the enemy of God and your enemy, namely, the disbelievers of Mecca, and others besides them, that is, other than those — namely, the hypocrites or the Jews, whom you know not: God knows them. And whatever thing you expend in the way of God, its requital, shall be repaid to you in full, and you will not be wronged, [you will not] be diminished anything thereof. [Tafsir al-Jalalayn]
  • 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. 

    • And He brought down those of the People of the Scripture, namely, the [Banū] Qurayza, who had supported them from their strongholds (sayāsī is the plural of sīsa, and is that in which one fortifies himself [against an enemy]) and He cast terror into their hearts, [so that] some, of them, you slew, and these were the combatants, and some, of them, you took captive, namely, their children. [Tafsir al-Jalalayn]
  • 59:2. He it is Who drove out the disbelievers among the people of the Scripture (i.e. the Jews of the tribe of Banî An-Nadîr) 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 Allâh! But Allâh'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). 
    • It is He Who expelled those who disbelieved of the People of the Scripture, namely, the Jews of the Banū al-Nadīr, from their homelands, [from] their dwellings at Medina, at the first exile, that is, their exile to Syria, the last [exile] being their banishment to Khaybar by ‘Umar during his caliphate. You did not think, O believers, that they would go forth, and they thought that they would be protected (māni‘atuhum is the predicate of an, ‘that’) by their fortresses (husūnuhum, the agent of the verb [māni‘atuhum], with which the predication is completed) from God, from His chastisement. But God, His command and His chastisement, came at them from whence they had not reckoned, [from whence] had never occurred to them, from the part of the believers, and He cast terror (ru‘b or ru‘ub) into their hearts, by having their chief Ka‘b b. al-Ashraf slain, destroying [as they did] (read yukharribūna; or yukhribūna, [derived] from [4th form] akhraba) their houses, in order to take away with them what they valued of wood and so on, with their own hands and the hands of the believers. So take heed, O you who have eyes! [Tafsir al-Jalalayn]
  • 59:13. Verily, you (believers in the Oneness of Allâh - Islâmic Monotheism) are more awful as a fear in their (Jews of Banî An-Nadîr) breasts than Allâh. That is because they are a people who comprehend not (the Majesty and Power of Allâh).

    Go back and re-read 8:57 in the light of the last highlighted clause in 59:2. Muslms are to treat victims harshly so as to strike terror in those behind them, their next anticipated victims. In 59:2, we are told to take warning from the example of the Bani An-Nadir. Intelligent readers will get a clue. 

    Allah's Messenger also had words concerning terror, fewer than Allah's but so stark as to settle the matter beyond any shadow of doubt. 

  • Sahih Bukhari Volume 1, Book 7, Number 331:
    Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah:
    The Prophet said, "I have been given five things which were not given to any one else before me.
    1. Allah made me victorious by awe, (by His frightening my enemies) for a distance of one month's journey.
    2. The earth has been made for me (and for my followers) a place for praying and a thing to perform Tayammum, therefore anyone of my followers can pray wherever the time of a prayer is due.
    3. The booty has been made Halal (lawful) for me yet it was not lawful for anyone else before me.
    4. I have been given the right of intercession (on the Day of Resurrection).
    5. Every Prophet used to be sent to his nation only but I have been sent to all mankind.
  • Sahih Bukhari Volume 4, Book 52, Number 220:
     Narrated Abu Huraira:

        Allah's Apostle said, "I have been sent with the shortest expressions bearing the widest meanings, and I have been made victorious with terror (cast in the hearts of the enemy), and while I was sleeping, the keys of the treasures of the world were brought to me and put in my hand." Abu Huraira added: Allah's Apostle has left the world and now you, people, are bringing out those treasures (i.e. the Prophet did not benefit by them).

    Allah said that he would cast terror and that he cast terror resulting in death, enslavement, destruction & dispossession.  Moe said that he was made victorious with terror. Can you get a clue?  Muslims, politicians, educators, clerics & the media are liars when they deny the obvious connection between Islam and terrorism: terrorism is an intrinsic sacrament of Islam. 

Islamophobia

monolithic & static

    There are many sects; which of the mainstream schools of Islamic jurisprudence rejects the communal object of offensive jihad?  How has Islam changed in the last 14 centuries?  How do you improve upon perfection? How do you change that which is immutable?

  • None can change His Words. [6:115]
  • No change can there be in the Words of Allâh, this is indeed the supreme success. [10:64]
  • None can change His Words, [18:27]
  • No change let there be in Khalq­illâh (i.e. the Religion of Allâh Islâmic Monotheism), that is the straight religion, but most of men know not. [Tafsir At­Tabarî, Vol 21, Page 41] [30:30}

separate

    Where do Muslims assimilate? Where do they blend in, drop their religious garb and language; where do they participate in the labor economy?

no common values

    "We love death more than you love life." Their highest aspiration is stated clearly in the motto of al-Ikhwan: "God is our objective; the Quran is our constitution, the Prophet is our leader; Jihad is our way; and death for the sake of God is the highest of our aspirations."[14][15]
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muslim_Brotherhood]

    Moe declared that he would love serial martyrdom as reported in Sahih Bukhari 4.52.54.

Inferior

    Could it be possible that there is good reason for us to view Islam as inferior? What Muslim satrapy was not a primitive, backwards, undeveloped pit of misery prior to the discovery of massive oil reserves under the sand? 

barbaric

    Why would we associate Islam with barbarism? Perhaps because of the Barbary Pirates? Or could it be because of chopping off heads and hands? Could Allah's bloodlust for genocide have some bearing on this?

violent

    Why would Islam be viewed as violent and supportive of terrorism? Could it be because of the Hindu, Assyrian & Armenian genocides? Could Allah's jihad imperatives in 8:39 & 9:29,. which are codified in Reliance of the Traveller, O9.8  & 9.9 have something to do with this perception?

political ideology

    Perhaps Islam is perceived as political because it conflates mosque and state. Could it be because Islamic law is derived from the Qur'an? 

criticism of the west is rejected

    Islamic criticism is rejected because Islam sees  the speck in our eye, while ignoring the beam in its own.  With all its flaws, Western Civilization is far superior to Islam. 

discrimination

    Islamic hostility should be used to justify expulsion & exclusion of Muslims from Dar ul-Harb. Unfortunately, our elected traitors lack the spinal fortitude to do what must be done to preserve Western Civilization. 

hostility

    If we were not hostile to a war cult which seeks to subjugate the entire world, we would be  suicidally insane.

divine religions

    There is no good reason why the followers of divine religions can not live together in peace.  Christianity & Judaism are not in conflict.  Islam, the source of conflict, is not a divine religion: it is demonic.  Only a demon would deliberately create one group of people for the fire and another for Paradise.  I refer to Moe's creation myth contained in Malik's Muwatta 46.1.2. Only a demon would set "great slaughter" as his Prophet's admission to Paradise.

Geert Wilders Trial: Truth is No Defense

Google published an article from Canada Free Press about recent developments in the trial of Geert Wilders.  One prosecutorial qoute  stands out like sore thumb and must be addressed.  Thanks and a tip of the hat to Jihad Watch.


"You can expect a politician to be aware of the impact of his words and in any case, the legal limit may not be crossed, no matter how important it may be to address supposed problems and to contribute to matters of general interest,"   Prosecutor Birgit van Roessel [Emphasis added.]

    The relevant statutory provisions are revealed in the summons.  Expressions which "insult a group of people"  and/or " incites hatred or discrimination" against them are arbitrarily prohibited.  No defenses are allowed.  

    If Muslims, motivated by the normative doctrines of Islam enshrined in the Qur'an and exemplified by Muhammad's Sunnah, murder film makers, assault homosexuals, threaten members of parliament and pose an existential threat to the cultural identity and continuance of a free & democratic Netherlands, public disclosure of the facts is prohibited and can not be excused on grounds of necessity.  

    Besides mandating national suicide, the prosecutor has a severe cognitive dissonance problem. She moved for dismissal of charges of insulting Muslims because the insult was to Islamic ideology, not to Muslims.  If the insult was to Islam, then the incitement &  discrimination must also be against Islam,  not Muslims.  All of the charges should be dropped, they should never have been filed.

OIC Withdraws Draft Res. Condemning Qur'an Burning

Pakistan suddenly withdrew the OIC's Draft Resolution  Condemning a Call to 'Burn a Qur'an Day'. Beyond the usual boiler plate references, the draft had five main points.


  • Condemnation of
    • 'Burn a Koran Day'
    • advocacy of religious hatred that constitutes incitement to
      • hatred
      • discrimination
      • hostility
      • violence
  • Calls
    • upon international community to stand against such events which
      • undermine peaceful coexistence
      • create an environment conducive to violence; reprisal
    • upon all states to condemn & oppose advocacy of religious hatred that constitutes incitement to
      • hatred
      • discrimination
      • hostility
      • violence
  • Urges the international community to support all international and regional initiatives to promote cross-cultural and interfaith harmony.
    In lieu of the draft resolution, the Council President issued a Presidential statement expressing the consensus of the council.

Statement on behalf of the Human Rights Council
SIHUASAK PHUANKETKEOW, President of the Council, said in view of the growing number of instances of religious intolerance such as discrimination, conflating a religion with terrorism, or desecrating or destroying holy books, religious sites or shrines, he had been empowered by the agreement of all Council members to make the following statement on behalf of the Human Rights Council:
“The Council condemns recent instances of religious intolerance, prejudice and related discrimination and violence, which continued to occur in all parts of the world. The international community should stand united against all forms of religious intolerance and should engage in practical steps to end such intolerance. The Council encourages efforts to establish collaborative networks to build mutual understanding and promote dialogue. The Council stresses that these efforts should be taken to protect individuals of all religions and beliefs in a non-discriminatory way, and should apply to promote understanding among them. The Council also recognises that open, constructive and respectful debate, as well as interfaith dialogue, could have a positive effect. The Council reiterates the call by the United Nations Secretary-General on the necessity for the voices of moderation to be heard and mutual respect to prevail.”
That breaks down to:
  • Condemns:
    • instances of
      • religious intolerance
      • prejudice
      • related:
        • discrimination
        • violence
  • Unite against & take practical steps to end : 
    • religious intolerance
  • Encourages
    • efforts to
      • establish collaboration to build
        • mutual understanding
        • dialogue
  • Stresses that it should be done to
    • protect individuals of all religions
    • promote understanding
  • Recognizes Secy. General's call for moderation & mutual respect.

    The major differences I spot are the Presidential statement's lack of direct reference to 'Burn a Koran Day' & advocacy of hatred  and the addition of  condemnation of  intolerance.

    The draft had plenty of support; the E.U. had condemned the event, so it is probable that the draft would have won a unanimous ballot. Why was it withdrawn at the last moment, without debate and a vote?

    Why does the Presidential statement omit mention of the event which inspired the resolution & its substitute?   If they seek to prevent future incidents of Qur'an burning, they should be open about it, and specify the  act which offends them.   Why does the statement omit condemnation of advocacy of religious hatred?
   
    Terry Jones  abandoned his project, but Muslims continued to riot. They burned churches, Bibles and flags.  Could it be that the Human Rigths Council was caught in a dilemma between condemning Muslim rioters or demonstrating their bias?

    Did the statement omit advocacy of religious hatred because the Qur'an is full of it?

    The Secretary General of the OIC welcomed the  statement and  used the occasion to push the OIC agenda.

The Secretary General of the Organization of the Islamic Conference Prof Dr. Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu welcomed the adoption of a statement regarding condemnation of recent instances of religious intolerance, prejudice and related discrimination and violence, which continued to occur in all parts of the world. The consensual statement was read out, on Council’s behalf, by its President towards the end of the 15th Session in Geneva. ...more

...The Secretary General emphasized that the statement was particularly timely in view of the growing number of instances of religious intolerance such as discrimination, conflating religion with terrorism, desecrating or destroying holy books and religious sites or shrines. The Secretary General particularly welcomed the call by the Council - being the human rights conscience of the world— upon the international community to stand against all forms of religious intolerance and engage in practical steps to end such intolerance. ...

...He urged the international community to build upon the momentum generated by the consensual statement at the Council, in joining hands with the OIC towards evolving a normative approach to deal with growing instances of religious intolerance that continued to pose a clear and present danger to international community’s efforts and desire for global peace, security and stability.


Lets  examine the elements added by Ihsanoglu.
  • conflating religion with terrorism
  • desecrating or destroying holy books
    • religious sites or shrines
  • normative approach
  • clear and present danger to... global peace, security and stability.
    "Conflating Islam with terrorism" is standard boiler plate from the combating defamation resolutions.  It appears that I am the only one pointing out the fact that Allah & Moe established the nexus nearly 1400 years ago.  Allah said that he would cast terror, in 3:151 and 8:12. He said that he cast terror and described the results in 33:26 and 59:2. Moe said that he was made victorious by terror in Sahih Bukhari 4.52.220. In more modern times, Brig. S.K. Malik exposed the strategic use of terror in "The Qur'anic Concept of War"[A training manual for Pakistan's army.].

The Quranic strategy comes into play from the preparation stage, and aims at imposing a direct decision upon the enemy.  Other things remaining the same, our preparation for war is the true index of our performance during war. We must aim at creating a wholesome respect for our Cause and our will and determination to attain it, in the minds of the enemies, well before facing them on the field of battle. So spirited, zealous, complete and thorough should be our preparation for war that we should enter upon the ‘war of muscles' having already won the ‘war of will'. Only a strategy that aims at striking tenor into the hearts of the enemies from the preparation stage can produce direct results and turn Liddell Hart‘s dream into a reality....

Terror struck into the hearts of the enemies is not only a means, it is the end in itself. Once a condition of terror into the opponent's heart is obtained, hardly anything is left to be achieved. It is the point where the means and the end meet and merge. Terror is not a means of imposing decision upon the enemy; it is me decision we wish to impose upon him.
[Emphasis added.]

    If the Arabic Qur'an might be holy (which I deny, it is unholy), the translations which were to be burned and those which were torn  and burned were English translations, not considered sacred to Islam.   The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia shreds bibles and crucifixes carried into the Kingdom.  Will the Human Rights Council and the OIC condemn their policy?

    When the PLO invaded & occupied the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem, they defecated on the Altar and performed istijia with pages torn from the Bible.  Did the Human Rights Commission or the OIC condemn their acts of desecration?

    "Normative approach" is a code phrase for legislation.  The OIC is behind the HRC's Ad Hoc Committee for the Elaboration of Complementary International Standards, whose mission is to use a protocol to insert the defamation resolutions into ICERD  so as to give them the force of law.  This issue is flying below the radar, very few people know about it, and those who know ain't telling. Nobody is doing anything effective to stop the travesty of justice.  But I will share what I know with you.
    "Clear and present danger to... global peace, security and stability". Did the Motoons incite Danes to riot, burn Mosques and kill Muslims?  Who rioted, burned embassies and killed people?  Did clear and present danger arise from the Motoons?  

    Did International Burn a Qur'an Day" incite Americans to riot, burn property & kill people?  What incited riots other than rabid kutbah in the Mosques of Pakistan, Afghanistan & Indonesia and incendiary news coverage?

    How can there be religious tolerance when Islam is intolerant and intolerable?  Has no one read the Qur'an?  3:85 says that no religion but Islam will be tolerated. 9:33 says that Islam must be made dominant.  Ibn Kathir's Tafsir has some instructive titles and topics each of which contains relevant ayat & ahadith.
    Discrimination?  Yeah, right. Islamic law says that kuffar can not testify in court.

Legal testimony is only acceptable from a witness who:
(a) is free;
(b) is fully legally responsible (mukallaf, def: c8.1) (O: as testimony is not accepted from a child or insane person, even when the child's testimony regards injuries among children that occurred at play);
(c) is able to speak;
(d) it mentally awake;
(e) is religious (O: meaning upright (o24.4) (A: and Muslim), for Allah Most High says,
"Let those of rectitude among you testify" (Koran 65:2),
and unbelief is the vilest form of corruption, as goes without saying); [Emphasis added.]

But wait, there's more!  Under Islamic law, the blood money for killing a kaffir is significantly discounted.

(A: For the rulings below, one multiplies the fraction named by the indemnity appropriate to the death or injury's type of intentionality and other relevant circumstances that determine the amount of a male Muslim's indemnity (def: o4.2-6 and o4.13). )
The indemnity for the death or injury of a woman is one-half the indemnity paid for a man.
The indemnity paid for a Jew or Christian is one-third of the indemnity paid for a Muslim. The indemnity paid of a Zoroastrian is one-fifteenth of that a Muslim. [Emphasis added.]
    Don't hand me a turd and say its sausage, I know the difference. Islam is not tolerable and I will not tolerate it.  Islam is not respectable and I will not respect it.

International Burn a Qur'an Day: Fan the Embers!

The pr campaign initiated by Pastor Terry Jones, though it ended in a fizzle, afforded us an opportunity to expose the  evil contents of that abominable book. In Washington D.C., at the White House,  two courageous men revealed the contents and crumpled pages from a translation.  In New York, near the site of the proposed Ground Zero mosque, one brave man burned pages torn from a translation.

    Islam  has nothing to kvetch about because:

  1. Pastor Jones abandoned the burning ceremony.
  2. The crumpled Qur'an was a translation, not Arabic.
  3. The burned Qur'an was a translation, not Arabic. 
Muslims do not consider translations to be sacred.  The Qur'an's magic is in the sound; it is meant to be memorized and recited, not read.

    Yet Muslims are bitching like a nervous little dog tied up outside, cold, hungry & lonely:   barking incessantly. Their barking is both a threat to our liberty and an opportunity to expose Islam's damnable doctrines.  We must repulse the threat and exploit the opportunity.

threat:

    On September 22, 2010, Pakistan's delegate to the United Nations Human Rights Council submitted a draft resolution condemning International Burn a Qur'an Day.  The draft is a single page packed with feces, some old and stale, some fresh and pungent. [Emphasis added to quotes for clarity.]

stale feces

    The preamble contains  abusive  perversion  by reference to the U.N. Charter,  the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, ICERD & ICCPR.  It continues with a disingenuous call for one sided inter-cultural  dialogue.  It extends its spew of feces by  conflating criticism of Islam with racism by reference to the United Nations Millennium Declaration.  It aggravates the offense by conflating criticism with physical violence.

  •     Reaffirming the pledge made by all States under the Charter of the United Nations to
    promote and encourage universal respect for and observance of human rights and fundamental
    freedoms for all, without distinction as to race, sex, language or religion,
    Human rights belong to individual humans, not to groups, associations or institutions.  There is no right to be shielded by coercive force from all questioning and criticism.
  • Reaffirming also that all human rights are universal, indivisible, interdependent and  interrelated,
    This is exemplary kitman, the Islamic art & science of deception by obfuscation.  They are equating a non-existent & unstated right to be  shielded from criticism with our right of free expression.  The reaffirmation is boiler plate taken from previous Defamation of Religions resolutions.  The implicit false premise: "our right to be shielded from criticism  negates your right of free expression; you can't say anything about our demon, profit, doctrines or practices".
  • Reaffirming further that discrimination between human beings on the grounds of
     religion or belief constitutes an affront to human dignity and a disavowal of the principles of
    the Charter of the United Nations, and shall be condemned as a violation of the human rights
    and fundamental freedoms proclaimed in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and
    enunciated in detail in the International Covenants on Human Rights, and as an obstacle to
    friendly and peaceful relations between nations,
    Pastor Jones proposed to burn an unholy book.  That is not an act of discrimination, it is a condemnation of a set of evil doctrines & practices. Condemning & incineration of the demon's manifesto of predation is not discrimination, nor does it pose an obstacle to peaceful international relations.  All of the threats and violence came from the other side, who burned flags & Bibles, destroyed property and killed people in their riots;  none came from the Dove World Outreach Center. 
  • Welcoming also the resolve expressed in the United Nations Millennium Declaration,
     adopted by the General Assembly in its resolution 55/2 on 8 September 2000, to take
    measures to eliminate the increasing acts of racism and xenophobia in many societies and to
    promote greater harmony and tolerance in all societies, and looking forward to its effective implementation at all levels, [Emphasis added.]
    The preliminary document for the recent Durban Conference contains  the key to the emphasized expression. Pay close attention to this, which constitutes a demonic distortion of the English language. I added the bold red font to make the evil  clause stand out.

4.  Emphasizes the urgent need to address the scourges of anti-Semitism, Christianophobia, and Islamophobia as contemporary forms of racism as well as racial and violent movements based on racism and discriminatory ideas directed at African, Arab, Christian, Jewish, Muslim and other communities;

The U.N. has equated opposition to Islam with racism.  Islam is not a race. Arab is a race; Islam, invented by an Arab,  enslaves Arabs, Africans, Asians & Europeans.  If we condemn Islam's sanctification  of mandatory genocidal conquest through terrorism, we are automatically branded as racist.   The intent is to silence us; to shut down debate arbitrarily.

fresh feces

    The novel crap is contained in a five point enumerated list of action items.

    Noting with deep concern the instances of intolerance, discrimination, profiling and
acts of violence against Muslims occurring in many parts of the world,

  1. Condemns in this regard the recent call by an extremist group to organize a ‘Burn a Koran Day’; 
  2. Condemns also any advocacy of religious hatred that constitutes incitement to I hatred, discrimination, hostility or violence; 
  3. Calls upon the international community to stand united against such events which undermine peaceful coexistence between nations and create an environment  conducive to violence; reprisal
  4. Calls upon also all States to condemn and oppose, in accordance with their obligations, under international human rights law, any advocacy of national, racial or religious hatred that constitutes incitement to hatred, discrimination, hostility  and violence;  
  5. Urges the international community to support all international and regional initiatives to promote cross-cultural and interfaith harmony.

extremist group

    Extremist connotes violent tendencies.  In common parlance, the Muslims who slaughter innocents in the name of Allah are labeled "extremists".  Who has Pastor Jones and his Dove World Outreach Center threatened?  Who have they assaulted?  Who have they killed?  They condemned and expressed an intention to burn the book which inspires & motivates terrorists.  What is extreme about that?

    This term of opprobrium, delivered in the absence of definition and evidence, constitutes  libel and slander.  Pakistan's delegate ought to be sued for libel and so should the UNHRC  when it passes that resolution.

incitement

    Exactly what did Pastor Jones say that incited anyone to hate Muslims?  Exactly what did he say that incited anyone to assault Muslims?  Precisely who acted on that incitement?  Did he brandish a sword and shout "Crusade, Crusade, Crusade! ?

undermine peaceful coexistence

    Did Pastor Jones call for war?  Did his congregation march upon  Pakistan's embassy hurling snones and firebombs?  Who  rioted?  Who incited them to riot?  Did they listen to the Pastor's sermon or their Imam's Kutbah at Juma Salat?

condemn and oppose

    President Obama, Secretary of State Clinton & General Petraeus  condemned and opposed  International Burn a Qur'an Day. They met their obligations. What more  do you demand?  Note the repetition of boiler plate from an earlier point.  What is its source?

ICCPR

Article 20

  1. Any propaganda for war shall be prohibited by law.
  2. Any advocacy of national, racial or religious hatred that constitutes incitement to discrimination, hostility or violence shall be prohibited by law.
The United Nations
INTERNATIONAL COVENANT ON
CIVIL AND POLITICAL RIGHTS

That just happens to be an international human rights covenant, legally binding on and enforceable against signatories.

opportunity

    The enemy has pointed out our best weapon against it!  We have an opportunity to pick up and deploy that weapon.

demand enforcement of Art. 20!

  1.  Any propaganda for war shall be prohibited by law.
What institution violates that provision in its immutable constitution?  I have a clue for you: Pastor Jones proposed to burn it.

2:216. Jihâd (holy fighting in Allâh's Cause) is ordained for you (Muslims) though you dislike it, and it may be that you dislike a thing which is good for you and that you like a thing which is bad for you. Allâh knows but you do not know.

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.

9:38. O you who believe! What is the matter with you, that when you are asked to march forth in the Cause of Allâh (i.e. Jihâd) you cling heavily to the earth? Are you pleased with the life of this world rather than the Hereafter? But little is the enjoyment of the life of this world as compared with the Hereafter.

9:39. If you march not forth, He will punish you with a painful torment and will replace you by another people, and you cannot harm Him at all, and Allâh is Able to do all things.

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

61:10. O You who believe! Shall I guide you to a commerce that will save you from a painful torment.

61:11.  That you believe in Allâh and His Messenger (Muhammad ), and that you strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allâh with your wealth and your lives, that will be better for you, if you but know!

61:12. (If you do so) He will forgive you your sins, and admit you into Gardens under which rivers flow, and pleasant dwelling in Gardens of 'Adn ­ Eternity ['Adn (Edn) Paradise], that is indeed the great success.


    If that ain't propaganda for war, what the Hell is?      ICCPR 20.1 requires that it be proscribed by law.  Who will enforce 20.1?

  1. Any advocacy of national, racial or religious hatred that constitutes incitement to discrimination, hostility or violence shall be prohibited by law.
1:6. Guide us to the Straight Way 

1:7. The Way of those on whom You have bestowed Your Grace, not (the way) of those who earned Your Anger (such as the Jews), nor of those who went astray (such as the Christians). 

2:161. Verily, those who disbelieve, and die while they are disbelievers, it is they on whom is the Curse of Allâh and of the angels and of mankind, combined.

98:6. Verily, those who disbelieve (in the religion of Islâm, the Qur'ân and Prophet Muhammad ()) from among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) and Al-Mushrikûn will abide in the Fire of Hell. They are the worst of creatures.

98:7. Verily, those who believe [in the Oneness of Allâh, and in His Messenger Muhammad ()) including all obligations ordered by Islâm] and do righteous good deeds, they are the best of creatures.

Reliance of the Traveller, o.11.5 lists discriminations against non-Muslim subjects.
-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.

    If the cited ayat ain't incitement to & the cited Shari'an ain't discrimination against Jews & Christians,  what the Hell is?  ICCPR  20.2 requires that it be proscribed by law.l  Who will enforce 20.2?

    It is expected that the draft resolution condemning International  Burn a Qur'an Day will be debated and voted on this week.  It is certain that it will pass because the OIC and its allies have a majority of seats in the HRC.   This gives us a brief moment of opportunity. Let us seize it!!

International Qur'an Petition

    The petition linked immediately above cites the relevant provisions of ICCPR, ICERD & CPPCG and the Islamic doctrines which violate them.  It prays to the World Court for enforcement of those provisions which require civilized signatories to outlaw Islam.

    The link is to an html formatted copy which contains links to source texts. At the end of the text, it contains a signature link. I  urge you to  copy the petition, paste it into an email and send it to everyone you can hope to influence with an exhortation to sign and forward it.  Signing and promoting this petition is the best hope we have of prevailing over an existential foe which seeks to silence our protest against its intention to enslave us.

     U.N. resolutions are not binding, they lack the force of law.  ICERD can be enforced. At the end of November, the Ad Hoc Committee for the Elaboration of Complementary Standards will meet to write the resolutions into ICERD.  You can kiss the First Amendment goodbye, because it will be passed, signed and ratified.

    Our only hope of retaining our liberty  rests in raising the cost of this attack above the price Islam is willing to pay.  We must link full exposure of the Qur'an's evil contents to their attack against our free expression right.  We must do it now, while it is still legally possible.

    Act now if you love liberty and want to preserve it for yourself and your progeny.  Sign and propagate the International Qur'an Petition. Copy and cross post this blog post.  Seize the opportunity, it may be our last.
