  • Unrest in Egypt: Who is the Muslim Brotherhood?

    Some would suggest, this is a somewhat politically-correct video because it makes a distinction between Islam and political Islam. However, many ex-Muslims and experts in Islam state that there is no distinction, e.g., "There are moderate Muslims but no such thing as moderate Islam!" ~ Ibn Warraq, Pakistani author GaryFPatton (gfp '42™ 2012-06-25)

Muslim Americans: Not So Middle Class Or Mostly Mainstream - Pew Research Center - 0 views

  • Muslim Americans: Middle Class and Mostly Mainstream
  • Fewer native-born African American Muslims than others completely condemn al Qaeda. In addition, younger Muslims in the U.S. are much more likely than older Muslim Americans to say that suicide bombing in the defense of Islam can be at least sometimes justified.
  •  
    You'll be shocked to discover, if you read the complete study, that the politically-correct statement re the number of "younger Muslims" who support suicide bombing is actually 1 in 4 under 30 or 25% of the impressionable Muslim population of the U.S. of about 2.5 million in 2007. Should we suspect the number would be less in Canada?

Prime Minister of Canada Greetings - 0 views

  • the following remarks
  • the moderate, benevolent, true face of Islam
  •  
    This statement reads to me like an apology to Muslim Canadians after the Prime Minster received considerable "blowback" for earlier, public remarks that he made about Islam. The earlier uproar came after his speaking truth on 2011-09-07 in an interview with the CBC for the 10th Anniversary of 9/11. (See a video of his talk with Peter Mansbridge, OC (1948- ) Canadian broadcaster & CBC news anchor at http://diigo.com/0koug.) During that interview when asked about the biggest threat to Canada's national security, Mr. Harper responded it was "Islamism" (He inadvertently mispronounced it "Islamicism" a non-word). That blowback came from leftist academics, liberals, and supporters of violent jihad, disguised as Islamic clerics, scholars and jurisprudents both from within and outside Canada. Therefore, he adopted a politically-correct stance in his "Greetings" to the assembled Muslim and other dignitaries at "Eid on the Hill" in Ottawa on 2011-11-23 . But he goes too far in what I consider his pandering and spoke untruth as I note in my e-Stick Notes attached to the Press Release attached. gfp (2011-11-24)

Islamism is "Canada's Biggest Terrorist Threat" says PM Stephen Harper : YouTube - 0 views

    In this video, Canada's Prime Minister, Stephen Harper, says, "Islamicism" is the biggest threat to his country's national security. (He said this in his talk with Peter Mansbridge, OC (1948- ) Canadian broadcaster & CBC news anchor.) During this interview when asked about the biggest threat to Canada's national security, Mr. Harper responded it was "Islamism" (He inadvertently mispronounced it "Islamicism" a non-word). The PM later made a politically-correct, back-handed apology because of the "blowback" from Islamic apologists, at his remarks in this video. He did so during a speech "Eid on the Hill" celebrations in Ottawa on 2011-11-23.. You can read the untruths the he regrettably and knowingly mis-spoke at http://diigo.com/0m9wx. gfp (2011-10-27)

  • The Status of Non-Muslims Under Muslim Rule
    • Gary Patton
       
      "Discover the R-E-A-L Horrors of Islamic D'himmitude" The true status of non-Muslims under Islamic rule includes almost a millennia and a half of recurring horror stories. The R-E-A-L horror is Revolting-Enervating-Authoritarian-Loathsome. This has been hidden from the knowledge of most Muslims and non-Muslims by violent Jihadists' and their supporters' in the West 'liefare'-style propaganda. (Liefare is called 'taqiyya' in Arabic and is authorized by the Qur'an to advance Islam. (Surah 328 ) One or more of Qur'an 2:173, 2:185, 3:28, 4:29, 16:106, 22:78, 40:28 66:2, are the verses usually cited by Muslim Imams, Mullahs and all Islamic "Schools of Jurisprudence" as justifying taqiyya. Surah 3:28 is quoted most often as the key one. The introductory paragraph in this article, in my opinion as a history-major researcher, is unadulterated political correctness and taqiyya ("liefare") regarding the treatment of Infidels across the Middle East, North Africa and in Europe. It's tone is leftist-academic, Islamic apologetics. WHAT D'HIMMITUDE R-E-A-Lly IS After the murderous, rapid expansion of Muslim control across the Christian Middle East and North Africa in the 7th century, Muslim leaders were required to work out a way of dealing with the non-Muslim residents of their huge conquered areas, the vast majority of whom were Christians, who had not been slaughtered during the conquest or taken as slaves back to Arabia. Christians remained in the majority in most prior-Christian and Muslim-conquered areas for centuries. They needed to be kept in subjugation. The solution was to develop the control technique of the "d'himma", or so-called "protected person" laid down in the "Covenant of Umar I", a 637 AD agreement between the second Caliph Umar ibn al-Khattab and Sophronius, the Christian "Patriarch of Jerusalem". The "Pact of Umar", The source document at http://diigo.com/0mmsj is the one tradition says was made by Umar II in 717 AD ...per Wikipedia. Under these comp

    • Gary Patton
       
      This is historically, broadly documented to be untrue. The Qur'an itself, commands the active humiliation of D'himmis at the time of payment of the tax (jizya). It says: "Fight ... the people of the Book until they pay the Jizya with willing submission and feel themselves subdued." (Qur'an 9:29) History documents that the Muslim Ulema (top world elders) have always interpreted the concluding phrase of thise text as requiring some physical abuse ...at least the time of annual payment.
  • In the name of God, the Merciful and Compassionate.
    • Gary Patton
       
      You decide if the conditions below can in any way be described as "compassionate and merciful" ...other than by complete denial of reality. Islam and its Sharia Law denies religious freedom to both Muslims and non-Muslims. Both must be beheaded for apostasy or the slightest criticism of Islam or its Prophet according to the Muslim deity, Allah. Christian please do not be confused by Islamic apologists. Allah is NOT the Christian Triune God, God The Father, God The Son and God The Holy Spirit despite Muslim taqiyya claims to the contrary. They themselves chant "Allahu Akbar". Literally, this Arabic expression means "Allah is greater"! This is an accurate translation according to Raymond Ibrahim. He is an Arabic-speaking Christian Copt, raised in Egypt and the U.S., who is an expert on Islam and the Middle East. (Discover his biography at http://is.gd/iehOYz .) What Islamic Jihadists and Street Muslims are really saying when they shout this is: "My god is greater than your God so my religion is superior." ...an insult and the application of a "might makes right" concept.

  • We shall not build, in our cities or in their neighborhood, new monasteries, Churches, convents, or monks' cells, nor shall we repair, by day or by night, such of them as fall in ruins or are situated in the quarters of the Muslims.
    • Gary Patton
       
      Don't miss the inability to repair a church already present in a community ...let alone build a new one. The intent is clear and disgraceful. These barbaric, medieval and freedom-destroying practises from the Arabian desert in the 7t Century are still being enforced against Christians and other non-Muslim groups in the 21st Century around the world, e.g. regularly in 2012 in Egypt, Nigeria and Indonesia to name only the worst persecution and genocide.
  • We shall not manifest our religion publicly nor convert anyone to it. We shall not prevent any of our kin from entering Islam if they wish it.
    • Gary Patton
       
      The one-sided Muslim arrogance of this and the next two regulations is publicly demonstrated, still today, by the demands for subservience by some Islamic clerics and politicians, e.g, no Christian diplomatic corps person may display a cross or other jewelry and women diplomats are often forced to wear at least the hijab in their presence or they won't meet ...despite the Islamic "Doctrine of Necessity" which allows them to be exposed to the same sights on the streets in Muslim-dominated countries so they can to get to the meeting. In Saudi Arabia, these regulations are enforced even on its streets and other public places. In some Muslim areas of the world, Christians and Jews especially are now treated by ordinary Street Muslims with this same arrogance , e.g. in 2012 in Egypt where some Copts are even being forced to pay the Jizya now tat the violent-jihadist Muslim Brotherhood has political power.
  • We shall show respect toward the Muslims,
  • We shall not seek to resemble the Muslims
  • We shall clip the fronts of our heads.
    • Gary Patton
       
      Given the humiliation engendered by the self-degradation required in this and the next two regulations, one might wonder if Hitler learned how to debase and humiliate Jews from his Arab friends and allies before WW II because they'd had so much practise at subserving all non-Muslim people groups.
  • We shall always dress in the same way wherever we may be, and we shall bind the zunar round our waists
  • We shall not display our crosses or our books in the roads or markets of the Muslims. We shall use only clappers in our churches very softly. We shall not raise our voices when following our dead. We shall not show lights on any of the roads of the Muslims or in their markets. We shall not bury our dead near the Muslims.
  • We accept these conditions for ourselves and for the people of our community, and in return we receive safe-conduct.
    • Gary Patton
       
      What would you do if the only alternative was to be slaughtered along with your family and have your belongings confiscated if you did not wish to convert to Islam? Many have done so for the last 1400 years to avoid d'himmitude. These affronts against Christians, particularly, are again regularly being practised Muslim-dominated countries around the world today as I write. So you can pray about the Christian genocide and for the persecuted, you'll find documentation of the persecution each month detailed by nation on the site of Raymond Ibrahim at http://www.raymondibrahim.com/ .

    The status of non-Muslims under Muslim rule is a millennia of horror stories despite Islamist and Street Muslim 'liefare'-style propaganda to the contrary. Liefare is called 'taqiyya' in Arabic and is athorized by the Qur'an to advance Islam. After the murderous, rapid expansion of Muslim control across the Christian Middle East and North Africa in the 7th century, Muslims leaders were required to work out a way of dealing with the non-Muslims, the vast majority of whom were Christians who had not been killed during the conquest or taken as slaves back to Arabia. Christians remained in the majority in most prior-Christian and Muslim-conquered areas for centuries. They needed to be kept in subjugation. The solution was to develop the control technique of the "d'himma", or so-called "protected person". Each Christian was forced to pay a special tax (jizya) and suffer regular humiliation dictated by Qur'an 9:29 for refusing to convert to Islam. In addition, the mis-named, because it is one-sided, "Pact of Omar" (late 7th Century?) dictated the constant, on-going humiliation of Christians that you can read about in point-form in the Pact at http://diigo.com/0mmsj. In most Muslim-dominated areas of the world, today, Christian D'himmis are far from "protected". Instead, they are severely persecuted, often attacked and their homes and churches are burned. This ongoing warfare against so-called "protected Christians" in the second decade of the 21st Century is commanded and, therefore, justified under Qur'an 4:52, 5:60 & 9:5 in which Jews and Christians are called 'apes' and 'pigs'. Local Street Muslims do so on the basis of thinly-veiled and trumped-up charges of violating the Pact of Omar or disparaging Islam or Muhammad. gfp (2012-01-20)

Morality has no chance facing off against the Charter - 0 views

  • Morality has no chance facing off against the Charter
  • “The underlying premise — namely that all human beings are possessed of dignity in virtue of a special relationship to a God — is incapable of being used as a basis of public policy proven in the context of a democratic, multicultural and multi-faith society that must cleave to the strictures of public reason in ethical deliberation.”
  • It is to Trudeau and his Charter of Rights that we owe the almost complete transformation of Canada over three decades.

  • The battle over euthanasia will be lost for precisely the same reasons the battles were lost over abortion and over same sex marriage; namely Catholics and social conservatives fail to understand their adversary and where and how the battle is fought.
  • I call this the “majority myth.”
  • Polls once showed an overwhelming majority of Canadians opposed same-sex marriage. Same with abortion.
  • the legal battle over same-sex marriage existed because the Charter existed, no other reason.
  • Section 15, the Equality Rights section of the Charter, is the trigger that allowed Canadian courts to launch such a radical re-ordering of society. In fact, the Charter is a blueprint for constant social re-engineering by the courts, and it is invidious for that reason. It is the antithesis of democratic self-government.
  • This kind of “heavenly deception” (a technique pioneered by the Moonies) is not only dishonest, it is on loan from the very totalitarian impulses that Canadians  should naturally oppose.
  • You may be sure that judges are not about to relinquish that power. The unavoidable reality is that Canada is now governed not by elected MPs but by appointed judges. And they are almost invariably liberal in their ideology.
  • Such judges see nothing wrong with courts legislating a liberal agenda that is (legislatively speaking) unpopular.
  • Any campaign that ignores this is simply delusional.
  • Alas, the Charter is not subject to referendum. If 90 per cent of Canadians had voted against gay marriage, it would have made no difference because so-called “fundamental rights” are not subject to voter preference.
  • What almost everyone avoided in the same-sex marriage campaign was the only viable solution. It’s a solution that exists in the Charter itself — Section 33, the “notwithstanding” clause.
  • the Liberal Party has promised never to invoke s. 33. And Harper’s Conservatives have never done so. Thus was the battle lost.
