British Islamist Abu Waleed: Muslims Should Humiliate Christians in Order to Make Them Convert to Islam

http://www.memri.org/clip/en/0/0/0/0/0/0/4263.htm

In a lecture posted on the Internet on January 16, 2014, British Islamist Abu Waleed called to impose humiliating laws on the Christians in order to make them want to convert to Islam. The infidel should have to wear a red belt around his neck in the street and wear two different shoes, among other things, he said. That way, everyone will want to become Muslim, explained Abu Waleed.
Following are excerpts:
Abu Waleed: How many contradictions do the Charter of the United Nations and Islam have?
[…]
We take what Abdullah Ibn Abbas said, because he was a Companion, from the greatest commentators on the Koran. He said to take the jizya poll tax from the People of the Book. This completely contradicts, my dear brothers, the articles of the United Nations [Charter].
Article 2, paragraph 1, says that the organization is based on the principle of sovereignty and equality to all of its members. Equality to all of its members – is there such a thing in Islam? Is there equality of faith?
If we look at one hadith of the Prophet on the authority of Abu Huraira, Sahih Muslim… No Sunni Muslim could really argue against Sahih Muslim or Sahih Bukhari… “The Prophet said: Don’t greet the Jews and the Christians before they greet you, and when you meet any of them on the road, force them to go on the narrower side of it.” Imam Malik said the same thing as well.
In fact, Omar Ibn Al-Khattab – about whom the Prophet Muhammad said: “If there were to be another prophet after me, it would be Omar Ibn Al-Khattab”… In his own charter – not the Charter of the United Nations – in his charter with the people of the Levant, the Christians of the Levant, [it is stated] that infidels and Muslims were not allowed to wear the same clothes as one another.
If a Muslim comes out on the day of ‘Eid and sees an infidel with nice clothes, the infidel has to take his clothes off and give them to the Muslim. When an infidel walks down the street, he has to wear a red belt around his neck, he has to have his forehead shaved, and he has to wear two shoes that are different from one another. He is not allowed to walk on the pavement. He has to walk in the middle of the road, and he has to ride on a mule.
This is only for adults, not for the children. You can see how Islam would make the child become a Muslim. The child growing up in a state of heresy would turn to Islam. Why? Because the child would be walking along with his dad, and would say: “Dad?” “Yes.” “Why have you got your forehead shaved?” “I don’t know, these Muslims make me do it.” “Why can’t you ride the animal like the Muslims, who ride like this? Why are you riding with both legs dangling on the side of the donkey?” “Why is it that every time a Muslim comes and asks you for your clothes, you give them?” “Why is it that every time he tells you to get down from the horse, you have to take it?”
No only that, but [Omar Ibn Al-Khattab] said that the infidels can have their churches, but they are not allowed to ring the bell. If a Muslim is walking by… let’s say, for example that a Muslim has been on Edgware Road. He has had some nice shisha, some nice steak… No hubble-bubble – we don’t deal with anything like that. He’s walking along, rubbing his belly, and he’s like: “Oh man, I don’t want to upset my wife tonight.” What can he do? He can go to the church, knock on the door, and say: “John, let me in.” “Okay, no problem.” John has to put up Abd Al-Ghafour for the night. Abd Al-Ghafour, with his big belly, having his nice kebab – John has to open up the church, and [allow him] to go and sleep there, nice and comfortable, and [he will] say: “John, thank you,” and carry on going, early in the morning.
What wife is going to live with John under that type of circumstances? [She would say]: “What kind of dishonor is it for me to live with John, and Abd Al-Ghafour comes every Friday night and sleeps in our be as well?” Of course… Because Sunna is to look after the guest, right? I can’t make you sleep on my floor… and you are a Muslim by the way…. So what about when Abd Al-Ghafour goes to John’s house? [He will say]: “John, sleep on the floor, and I’ll sleep in the bed.”
What’s going to happen? Tracy is going to be on the floor, thinking: “My husband has got his forehead shaved, and look at this one… He’s like Al-Khattab…” Which one is more attractive – we’re not gay, but I’m just saying… – a man with his forehead shaved, one belt around his neck, and two different colored shoes, or Emir Al-Khattab? Emir Al-Khattab, who we’re talking about here now, with that nice Chechen hat, a big beard – a bit to the side… He’s got the badges there: “There is no god but Allah.” He’s got a big gun. He’s got a big camouflage jacket on, nice boots, and gloves as well. Even if he’s got a couple of fingers missing, he still looks attractive.
What is Tracy going to do? John is in for a problem. He just let the Emir in for a kebab, and he lost his own wife as well. So everyone is going to become Muslims. That, my dear brothers, is the Islamic state….

Ian Hunter, 1st song loved, 1st Recording

Ian Mack: ‘What was the first song you loved?’ It was a toss up between ‘The Blue Tango’ and ‘Little Jimmy Brown’ (I’d have been 10 or so). ‘The greatest musical performance you ever saw?’ Ike and Tina Turner review – mind blowing (and not that loud). It had everything. Bertie McSpadde: ‘The first recording you ever appeared on?’ That would be with Freddie ‘Fingers’ Lee. Played bass. ‘When did you decide to be a vocalist?’ I wasn’t a vocalist and then I auditioned for MTH and became one. ‘What was your first vocal recording?’ Not sure. Might have been, ‘To Make a Man Cry’ with Miller Anderson in a band called ‘Scenery’. I did a few demos around ’68 for Francis, Day and Hunter. Roger Glover and I worked for them as staff writers.

Parent Exercising Free Speech at School Board Arrested

http://m.wcvb.com/news/gilford-parents-question-school-district-on-sexual-content-of-book/25830130 “‘Relax,’ Matt murmured, and then he sank his teeth into her shoulder. He pinned her hands over her head and ground his hips against hers. She could feel his erection, hot against her stomach. ” … She couldn’t remember ever feeling so heavy, as if her heart were beating between her legs. She clawed at Matt’s back to bring him closer. “‘Yeah,’ he groaned, and her pushed her thighs apart. And then suddenly Matt was inside her, pumping so hard that she scooted backward on the carpet, burning the backs of her legs. … (H)e clamped his hand over her mouth and drove harder and harder until Josie felt him come. “Semen, sticky and hot, pooled on the carpet beneath her.” Understandably, Baer doesn’t want his daughter exposed to this kind of material, and says the school “has no business introducing such themes” to his daughter. He’s also disturbed by school officials’ failure to notify parents that this novel was assigned, and there was no opportunity to “opt out.” Baer, who is an attorney, believes that if someone stood outside the school and handed out copies of the novel’s sexually charged passage to students, he would likely be arrested and prosecuted. He questions why it’s acceptable for “the state, through its schools and agents,” to mandate reading and discussing this same material. http://youtu.be/OsbS9JD7Pvw http://youtu.be/1HC2LPu8wHQ

Palestinian Kids: "Shoot the Jews"

http://youtu.be/0ORAM-usqhQ Children were instructed to shoot “all the Jews,” on the weekly Hamas TV children’s program Tomorrow’s Pioneers this week. The young Hamas TV host Rawan talks to a young girl in the studio named Tulin, who tells her she wants to be a police officer when she grows up. The child host directs her to the conclusion that as a police officer she would shoot “all the Jews.” Child host (Rawan): “Tulin, why do you want to be a police officer? Like who?” Girl (Tulin): “Like my uncle.” … Child host: “OK, so what does a policeman do?” Nahul (an adult in a giant bee costume): “He catches thieves, and people who make trouble.” Child host: “And shoots Jews. Right?” Girl: “Yes.” Child host: “You want to be like him?” [Girl nods] Child host: “Allah willing, when you grow up.” Girl: “So that I can shoot Jews.” [Nahul the bee claps his hands] Child host: “All the Jews? All of them?” Girl: “Yes.” Child host: “Good.” [Al-Aqsa TV (Hamas), May 2, 2014] Click to view Earlier in the segment, which taught children about “neighbors’ rights”, Nahul, an adult in a giant bee costume, told children to take stones and “smash” “the Jewish neighbors.” Palestinian Media Watch has documented the hate messages on this Hamas TV children’s program in the past, all presented by sweet puppets. The following is a longer excerpt of the recent broadcast encouraging children to “shoot all the Jews”: Al-Aqsa TV (Hamas) program Tomorrow’s Pioneers on neighbors’ rights. Phone conversation between Nahul the bee and Qais, a boy from Jenin (West Bank). Nahul the bee, (adult in a giant bee costume): “Listen my friend. Are there Jews where you are?” Boy (Qais): “No. Not at the moment.” Nahul: “I heard they come to you every day.” Boy: “Yes, but not now.” Nahul: “Listen, friend; do like this with your hands [makes fists], and when they come to you, punch them; make their face red like a tomato.” Boy: “Allah willing, so that we can liberate Palestine.” Nahul: “Allah willing.” … [Nahul talks to TV Host, young girl named Rawan] Nahul: “My friend Qais – anyway, Rawan, I tell him to take a stone, and when the Jews come, to take it and throw it at them.” Child host (Rawan): “Of course, the Jewish neighbors.” Nahul: “To smash them.” Child host: “If his neighbors are Jews or Zionists? Yes.” … [Child host Rawan talks to Tulin, a girl in the studio.] Child host Rawan: “Tulin, why do you want to be a police officer? Like who?” Girl Tulin: “Like my uncle.” Child host: “Which uncle?” Girl: “Ahmed.” Child host: “Is he a policeman?” [Girl nods] Child host: “OK, so what does a policeman do?” Nahul: “He catches thieves, and people who make trouble.” Child host: “And shoots Jews.

British Man Arrested for Quoting Winston Churchill

Paul Weston, a member of the GB Liberty Party, and current candidate for the South East England constituency of the European Union Parliament, delivered a speech in Winchester, a part of his constituency, in which he quoted from Winston Churchill’s 1899 book, “The River War: An Account of the Reconquest of the Sudan.” In particular, Weston quoted Churchill on the topic of Islam. As a result of his speech (and his refusal to stop speaking), Weston was arrested. “How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities – but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome.” http://youtu.be/HQzV_-latew

Obama to Imam at Victory Mosque: 'Pray For Me'

Malaysia’s Star newspaper quoted Abdullah Muhammad Zin, religious advisor to Prime Minister Najib Razak, as saying it was “not common” for the leader of a superpower to include a visit to a mosque in his itinerary. “There can be no better way for Obama to honor Islam than by visiting Masjid Negara,” he said. Bernama quoted several other senior Muslim figures commenting on the visit. “This is out of the ordinary as I cannot recall any non-Muslim world leader visiting the National Mosque and this is a good start for Muslims here,” said Ustaz Wan Akashah Wan Abdul Hamid, a religious scholar.Invited to comment on Obama’s decision to visit a mosque but not a church while in the country, Council of Churches of Malaysia general secretary Hermen Shastri demurred, but said that those responsible for arranging the visit had “ensured that he is made aware of the religious freedom issues in the country.”http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/patrick-goodenough/imam-obama-end-oppression-muslims-obama-imam-pray-me

Mott The Hoople, Desert Island Discs

The BBC recently put their Desert Island Discs archive online, and it was good to see Mott the Hoople appear three times - Morrissey (sea Diver), Baroness Campbell (ATYD) and Peter Scudamore (Golden Age...). http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/features/desert-island-discs/find-a-castaway (Good also to read in his autobiography, Morrissey saying - "In this year (1972) I also see Mott the Hoople and Lou Reed live, and my senses never return." p67)

State Propaganda to Indoctrinate Children about Obama

The 2008 election “should not just be a mere footnote within textbooks, but rather focus on the significance of Americans overcoming our nation’s past and acknowledging that Americans are moving in the right direction.”

Thus, all those minor presidents like Washington and Lincoln should be downplayed, and unimportant things such as the civil rights movement should be superseded by the election of someone who has harmed the upward mobility of minorities.

Prof Attacks Christians on Campus

http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2014/04/25/bullsh-bullsh-professor-goes-absolutely-ballistic-in-wild-expletive-laden-rant-against-christian-evangelists/ http://youtu.be/UpYDaCS0G94 A University of Connecticut professor is defending his actions after being caught on video ranting at Christian evangelists, including spouting expletives and leading students in a “Praise Darwin” chant. The spectacle, uploaded to YouTube April 23, shows anthropology professor James Boster aggressively confronting evangelist Don Karns, who was holding a sign that read, “Evolution is a lie.”

News Takes Rancher Out of Context

http://youtu.be/agXns-W60MI http://www.truthrevolt.org/news/unedited-tape-bundy-emerges-sheds-light-racist-remarks ... and so what I've testified to you -- I was in the Watts riot, I seen the beginning fire and I seen that last fire. What I seen is civil disturbance. People are not happy, people are thinking they don't have their freedoms, they didn't have these things, and they didn't have them. We've progressed quite a bit from that day until now, and we sure don't want to go back. We sure don't want the colored people to go back to that point. We sure don't want these Mexican people to go back to that point. And we can make a difference right now by taking care of some of these bureaucracies, and do it in a peaceful way.

Why Not Revisit Harry Reid's Racism?

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/01/09/AR2010010902141.html Wouldn't it have been a good time for the Post to re-visit Harry Reid's racism following his latest conflict with the Nevada rancher who is defending his property? No, that would have come too close to responsible journalism for that to happen. Racism is racism but the Left gets a pass for its bigotry every time. The difference in the ill-spoken comments is that one person is an ordinary citizen and the other represents a state and is a Senator. While both comments are regrettable the rancher is not a public figure and is simply exercising his free speech rights. People who are not elected officials have every right to express themselves publicly and without condemnation. If racism is truly the issue here, and it is not, then Reid's comments should be examined critically and ought to be publicly condemned. The upshot of the contention, the overreaching power of the Federal government, will be drowned out by the sideshow and distraction of the racial comments of the rancher. The Alinsky-ite tactic of demonizing an opponent is effective and works. The Post should be ashamed of its perfidy.
