Nederland moet Baarden van Troje weigeren

De afgelopen weken heeft de GeenStijl SheikWatch™ een aantal keer bericht over haatimams die naar Nederland wilden komen om op islamitische bijeenkomsten antisemitisme, geweld en/of opruiing tegen on- of andersgelovigen, de democratie, de rechtsstaat of natuurlijk het joodse volk te prediken. Berichtgeving op GeenSheik.nl wist daar enkele malen een stokje voor te steken. Niet omdat we fysieke blokkades opgeworpen hebben voor de deuren van moskeeën. Ook niet omdat we de macht hebben om mensen de toegang tot spreekgestoeltes in Nederland te verbieden. Neen. We toonden slechts wat videobeelden en uitspraken bij namen op affiches van dergelijke bijeenkomsten, en vervolgens trok het lokale gemeentebestuur en/of de organisatie en/of de NCTV de stekker uit de microfoon van diverse van deze sheiks, imams en "islamitische geleerden". De predikers knoopten zichzelf op aan hun eigen woorden. Prima. We hoeven immers de ongebreidelde import van bekrompen en regressieve religieuze dogma's niet onweersproken en zonder openlijke kritiek te laten gebeuren, zeker niet omwille van de intellectueel armoedige non-argumenten 'fatsoen', 'respect' en 'tolerantie'. Maar de vrijheid van meningsuiting dan? Geldt voor dergelijke haatsheiks niet net zo goed dat ook zij het recht hebben om uitspraken te doen die anderen misschien niet willen horen, en hoort GeenSheik.nl als een van de weinige échte voorvechters van het vrije woord in Nederland dat recht dan niet tot de dood te verdedigen? Jazeker wel. De essentie van de vrijheid van meningsuiting is tenslotte dat die ruimte en bescherming biedt aan abjecte meningen, snoeiharde standpunten en onwelgevallige uitspraken, ongeacht of die haaks staan op de opvattingen van de staat, de macht of de meerderheid. Maar bij de uitspraken van de haatsheiks gaat het niet om vrijheid van meningsuiting. Het heeft met vrijheid weinig te maken, en vanuit hun eigen perspectief gaat het zelfs niet eens om een mening.

The Return of Obama’s Hoax-Spreading Bitter Half

May 13, 2015 by Michelle Malkin

She’s baaaaaaaack. And she’s maaaaaad.

First lady Michelle Obama delivered the commencement address at Tuskegee University last weekend. She’ll do it again at Ohio’s Oberlin College — the UC Berkeley of the Midwest, Ground Zero for racial grievance-mongering and fake hate crimes — next week.

Commencement FLOTUS is not the same first lady who shows up on “Ellen” or “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” wearing her pastel cardigan, Chuck Taylors and a megawatt grin. No, this frowny-faced Michelle Obama talks and squawks like Al Sharpton in Jimmy Choo kitten heels. At Tuskegee, FLOTUS traded her affable TV persona for the divisive social justice complainer we all came to know and loathe during her husband’s first presidential campaign.

The Marshall Islands’ cautionary tale

On Tuesday, the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps forcibly commandeered the Maersk Tigris as navigated its way through the Straits of Hormuz. Iran controls the strategic waterway through which 40 percent of seaborne oil and a quarter of seaborne gas transits to global markets.

The Maersk Tigris is flagged to the Marshall Islands. The South Pacific archipelago gained its independence from the US in 1986 after signing a treaty conceding its right to self-defense in exchange for US protection. According to the treaty, the US has “full authority and responsibility for security and defense of the Marshall Islands.”

Given the US’s formal, binding obligation to the Marshall Islands, the Iranian seizure of the ship was in effect an act of war against America.

In comments to Bloomberg hours after the ship was seized, Junior Aini, chargé d’affairs at the Marshall Islands Embassy in Washington, indicated that his government’s only recourse is to rely on the US to free its ship.

The Left's Crusade Against Free Speech

By Peter Berkowitz- May 10, 2015

In October 2009, the Obama White House launched a concerted attack against critical press coverage, one unparalleled since the days of the Nixon White House. In one respect, Barack Obama and Richard Nixon were in agreement: both perceived a distinctly liberal bias in the media. Nixon denounced the press for its leftism, Obama objected to the press's deviation from it. So Obama and his senior staff singled out for condemnation Fox News, the lone television network that did not serve up the fawning coverage the president and his team had come to expect.

In “The Silencing: How the Left is Killing Free Speech,” Kirsten Powers recounts that in the space of a few days, White House communications director Anita Dunn, her deputy Dan Pfeiffer, White House Senior Adviser David Axelrod, and White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emmanuel openly asserted that the administration properly excluded Fox reporters from press briefings because Fox was not a legitimate news organization. When asked for comment by NBC News, President Obama stood behind his team.

Hans Jansen → Arabist en PVV-politicus Hans Jansen overleden

AMSTERDAM – De bekende arabist en Europarlementariër Hans Jansen is dinsdagochtend op 72-jarige leeftijd na een kort ziekbed overleden. Dat hebben zijn familie en zijn uitgever René van Praag bekendgemaakt.

Jansen, sinds juni 2014 lid van het Europees Parlement voor de PVV, werd afgelopen zondag getroffen door een herseninfarct. „Na een dappere eigenwijze strijd met humor en tederheid is hij vandaag rond 11.00 uur overleden, omringd door zijn familie”, meldt de familie in een door zijn uitgever verspreid persbericht.

Ook de PVV laat weten bedroefd te zijn. “Hans was een bijzonder mens. Hij inspireerde ons met zijn eruditie, zijn humor en zijn beminnelijkheid. Hij was een autoriteit op het gebied van islam, had een snelle geest en een scherpe pen. Met hem is een belangrijke steunpilaar van onze fracties heengegaan. We zullen hem erg missen.”

De Europarlementariër schreef zeventien boeken over de islam die verschenen bij Nederlandse, Duitse en Amerikaanse uitgeverijen. Zo werkte hij mee aan een Nederlandse vertaling van de Koran.

Why Did Ukraine Just Outlaw Communism and Nazism?

The law is a response to Russia's latest propaganda efforts. 

On April 9th, after a 24-year delay, the Ukrainian parliament (Rada) passed legislation banning communist propaganda along with its symbols, from street names and flags, to monuments and plaques.
The new legislation, passed by 56% of parliamentarians, declares the communist government that ruled Ukraine during the Soviet era a criminal regime that conducted policies of state terror. The ban similarly extends to Nazi propaganda and symbols, though unlike communism, Nazism hardly has a following in a country that was hit hard during WWII and the Nazi occupation.

With urgent and serious problems facing Ukraine’s economy, finances, and government reform, and while fighting a war with Russia-backed separatists, what caused the rush to condemn Nazism and communism simultaneously?
On the surface, bundling together these two anti-human, totalitarian ideologies may seem like a symbolic gesture, but in reality each was banned for a very different practical reason, both of them of an existential nature.

Hans Jansen - Taghoet

Taghoet of Taroet, met het accent op de laatste lettergreep – kent u die uitdrukking, dames en heren? De uitdrukking maakt deel uit van de Nederlandse straattaal, en betekent daar meestal ‘politie’. In het kader van de islamisering is het aanbevolen dit woord toe te voegen aan uw islamitische woordenlijst, naast jihaad, taqiyya, boerka enzovoort. Taghoet wordt ook gebruikt voor andere soorten gezagsdragers dan de politie, zoals treinconducteurs die zo brutaal zijn naar uw vervoersbewijs te vragen, ambulancemedewerkers die willen dat u een stapje opzij doet zodat ze hun werk kunnen doen, of een brandweerman die wil dat u doet wat hij zegt om te voorkomen dat er mensen ontijdig zullen ingaan tot het Eeuwige Vuur. Ook de grensrechters in het jeugdvoetbal zullen wel bij de taghoet horen. In de islamitische wereld zelf wordt het woord vooral door de godvrezenden gebruikt om de seculiere regeringen aan te duiden die aarzelen de sharia in te voeren. Die aarzeling bewijst immers dat die regeerders geen echte moslims zijn, maar afvalligen, anders hadden ze de sharia wel al ingevoerd. In die laatste betekenis, ‘seculiere regering van een in meerderheid islamitisch land’, is het woord te vinden in de officiële uiteenzettingen over de wegen dezer wereld waarmee de sharia-fundamentalisten de islamitische theologische literatuur verrijkt hebben.

NBC’s Engel: US allies fear Obama admin leaking information to Iran

Just how badly has Barack Obama and his administration damaged relations with our allies in the Middle East? NBC’s Richard Engel reports that the Sunni nations in the region have begun to fear that the Obama administration leaks intel to Iran as part of its efforts at rapprochement with the mullahs, which is why the US got blindsided by the Saudi-led coalition’s operations in Yemen. The White House’s “incoherence” in policy, Engel reports, has most of them losing confidence in American leadership, according to Engel’s contacts (via Free Beacon):

Obama's Jihadist Bias and Israel

By James Lewis

At this point there is no honest doubt that Obama is not just pro-Muslim, but that he favors Jihadist imperialism, whether by infiltration or violence. Or both.

Iran is an outright jihadist imperialist power, and it has been called the biggest terror sponsor by our State Department -- before Obama told it to shut up. Iran now controls the Syrian regime of Assad, the Houthi conquerors in Yemen’s capital of Sanaa, parts of Iraq, much of Lebanon, and at times the Hamas-occupied Gaza strip. Iran’s Revolutionary Guards are fighting in Iraq and Syria. Contrary to New York Times propaganda, the “smiling Ayatollah” Rouhani is actually grinning like a tiger after a big kill.

Obama’s so-called “nuclear agreement” by the US and Europeans is simply a retreat before the most dangerous new rogue nuclear power. This is so barefaced a betrayal that even the US Congress is alarmed.

Crossing the Line 2: The New Face of Anti-Semitism on Campus

Op-Ed: What the West Must Do In Order to Survive

Americans must demand that their government defend their country and their way of life

If Europe does not do the following immediately, the birthplace of the Western enterprise will soon be conquered by barbarism.

First, the European Union must dissolve itself. Borders and passports must return. No one should be allowed to travel unhindered from European country to European country.

Second, each European country must pass legislation to deport all those who are on “no fly” lists; all radical imams at radical mosques, together with their radicalized followers in mosques and in prisons; and all those who have traveled to Iraq, Syria, and Yemen for jihadi training.

Third, legislation must empower police and military forces to physically abolish the “no-go” zones–the hostile, separatist Muslim-only neighborhoods in which the European rule of law does not exist and which are ruled, instead, by vigilantism, terrorism, and a superstitious version of Sharia law.

Fourth, the most vigorous requirements must be put in place for new immigrants and for the families of existing immigrants.

West Misses Point—and Lesson—of Buddhist Anti-Muslim Sentiment

March 3, 2015 by Raymond Ibrahim

Originally published by PJ Media.

Ongoing reports decrying “anti-Muslim” Buddhists seem to miss the point: this antipathy did not appear out of thin air but rather in response to Islamic aggression—the same Islamic aggression the rest of the world is trying to cope with.


A Financial Times editorial titled “Buddhist militancy triggers international concern” opens by describing the “traumatic first-hand view” of a Muslim woman whose home was attacked and possessions plundered by Buddhists in Sri Lanka. Says the woman: “If I could meet those responsible, I would ask: ‘Sir, does your Lord Buddha teach this?’”

Some paragraphs down, readers discover that her home was attacked during the course of “two days of clashes with Muslims,” which were “sparked by a street-corner disagreement between a Buddhist monk and a young Muslim,” and which left three people—religious identity unstated—dead.

Bring Back the Bush Doctrine—with One Addition

by Andrew C. McCarthy February 28, 2015 4:00 AM

 

There is a path to victory in the fight against radical Islam, and our next president should embrace it.

What should be our strategy against ISIS? We ask the question without ever considering Iran. What concessions about centrifuges and spent fuel should we demand to prevent Iran from becoming a nuclear power? We ask the question never linking the mullahs’ weapons ambitions with its sponsorship of the global jihad . . . the only reason we dread a nuclear Iran.

 

What should be the national-defense strategy of the United States against radical Islam, the most immediate and thoroughgoing security and cultural threat we face today?

 

I had the good fortune to be asked to participate in a CPAC panel Friday on defending America against rogue states. With 2016 hopefuls crowding the halls, it got me to thinking: What should we hope to hear from Republicans who want to be the party’s standard-bearer?

 

It is often said that we lack a strategy for defeating our enemies. Actually, we have had a strategy for 14 years, ever since the fleeting moment of clarity right after the 9/11 attacks.

 

That strategy is called the Bush Doctrine, and it remains the only one that has any chance of working . . . at least if we add a small but crucial addendum — one that should have been obvious enough back in 2001, and that hard lessons of history have now made inescapable.

Oslo Synagogue ‘Muslim Peace Ring’ Organizer: Jews Were Behind 9/11, Mumbai Terror Attack

International media narrative on weekend event quickly falls apart.

On Saturday, I expressed serious skepticism here at PJ Media about the “Muslim Peace Ring” that surrounded an Oslo synagogue over the weekend. Here’s what I observed:

Now I’m not going to get into the motives of those involved today, but color me skeptical of these types of events for several reasons.

First, if you contact the international media to cover your event, forgive me if I question your sincerity. Your staged “Ring of Peace” photo op is really a “Ring of Propaganda.” Matthew 6:1-4 and all that.
Secondly, when you use actual victims (Jews) to try to make yourselves (Muslims) the victims by leading your chants with “No to anti-Semitism,” and then smuggling in your own “Islamophobia” narrative, I’m calling BS…

Thirdly, these Muslim “human chain” photo ops are never around when you actually need them.

I gave the example of the “Muslim human ring” around the Mar Girgis Church in Sohag, Egypt story that was circulated in July 2013, only to have the same church torched by the Muslim Brotherhood the very next month.

Washington Examiner: Obama Kept Reformist Muslims From Extremism Summit

Ken Shepherd | February 21, 2015 | 2:40 PM EST

President Obama is so wedded to his faulty notion that ISIS has absolutely nothing at all to do with Islamic theology that he banned a group of reform-minded Muslims from the just-concluded Countering Violent Extremism summit, the Washington Examiner is reporting today.

I don’t care that Muslims are standing in front of a synagogue

Marc Goldberg, February 21st 2015, 11:49 am

In the wake of a terrorist murder at a synagogue in Copenhagen many Norwegian Muslims have determined to show solidarity with the Jewish community there. They shall be taking position outside a synagogue to “guard” it through making a “human peace ring” around it.

I wish they wouldn’t.

Superficial expressions of solidarity are all well and good but what we need is something a lot more real. No sensible person ever doubted that there were plenty of Muslims out there happy to live side by side with Jews. What I would prefer is to see the Muslim community take active measures to curb the extremism in their own mosques, schools and institutions. This isn’t just what the Jews need, it’s what everyone needs.

Are any of the politicians of Europe, in whose hands lie the power to tackle Islamic extremism head on, going to do anything at all to ensure that the real problem is dealt with?

Perhaps they could work on countering Islamic extremism instead of attacking the Prime Minister of Israel for telling Jews to make aliyah. Of course I wouldn’t expect European politicians to be anything other than outraged by calls from the Israeli Prime Minister for Jews to turn their backs on Europe and move to Israel. Such calls serve as a reminder of the European failure when it comes to accepting Jewry as an integrated part of Europe.

Zionism is a Jewish and a European ideology. It was born in Europe as a response to a hatred of Jews. A hatred whose very name, anti-Semitism, was coined by a Jew hater who wanted his hatred to sound more scientific. Every time you hear someone arguing they can’t be anti-Semitic because they’re a Semite you’ll see his effort bearing fruit.

The only reason Israel exists is because of Europe’s shabby treatment of Jews. The fact that in the 21st century Jews are still abandoning Europe to flock to Israel is a harsh reminder of European failure vis a vis the Jews. No wonder European politicians are taking it personally it’s a harsh indictment of their ineffectiveness.

Update: Media Hoax: 20 Muslims Holding Hands Become 1,000-Strong ‘Ring of Peace’ at Oslo Synagogue


The weekend’s feel-good story about a Muslim “ring of peace” formed to “protect” Jews at an Oslo synagogue turned out to be a complete fabrication by the mainstream media, according to an eyewitness report, local officials, and attendees’ photos.

According to a local eyewitness, only about 20 or so Muslims formed the “ring of peace” around the Oslo synagogue. In fact, pictures from multiple angles show that there wasn’t enough people to form a ring, so the locals instead formed a horizontal line in front of the synagogue.

O Beautiful, For Specious Guys...

by Mark Steyn
Steyn on America
February 20, 2015

The US media have had a fit of the vapors over Rudy Giuliani's suggestion that Barack Obama does not love America. As the Instapundit says, their reaction suggests that Giuliani hit a nerve.

For my own part, I am way beyond that. By the way, I'm growing rather weary of the cheap comparisons of Obama with Neville Chamberlain. The British Prime Minister got the biggest issue of the day wrong. But no one ever doubted that he loved his country. That's why, after his eviction from Downing Street, Churchill kept him on in his ministry as Lord President of the Council, and indeed made Chamberlain part of the five-man war cabinet and had him chair it during his frequent absences. When he died of cancer in October 1940, Churchill wept over his coffin.

So please don't insult Neville Chamberlain by comparing him to Obama. I'm not a conspiracy theorist, because conspiracies are generally a comforting illusion: the real problem with Obama is that the citizens of the global superpower twice elected him to office. Yet one way to look at the current "leader of the free world" is this: If he were working for the other side, what exactly would he be doing differently?

Former NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani says Obama 'doesn't love America'

At a private dinner in midtown Manhattan, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani (R) accused President Barack Obama of not loving America, Politico reports.

Giuliani was speaking to a group including Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R) and conservative business executives.

"I do not believe, and I know this is a horrible thing to say, but I do not believe that the president loves America," Giuliani said, according to Politico. "He doesn’t love you. And he doesn’t love me. He wasn’t brought up the way you were brought up and I was brought up through love of this country."
