Fitna back on Live Leak
UPDATE: LiveLeak.com has decided that they will put the Fitna movie back online. This was found on their site this early this morning
I pasted them for caving in to threats from the "Religion of Peace", which as usual, threatened violence if they didn't get their way. I commend LiveLeak for coming back and taking a principled stand against the tyranny that is islam. Thanks Lads!!
On the 28th of March LiveLeak.com was left with no other choice but to remove the film "fitna" from our servers following serious threats to our staff and their families. Since that time we have worked constantly on upgrading all security measures thus offering better protection for our staff and families. With these measures in place we have decided to once more make this video live on our site. We will not be pressured into censoring material which is legal and within our rules. We apologise for the removal and the delay in getting it back, but when you run a website you don't consider that some people would be insecure enough to threaten our lives simply because they do not like the content of a video we neither produced nor endorsed but merely hosted.

Are the Arabs threatening war against Israel?
H/T Israel Matvaz
Get a load of this statement coming out of the Arab summit in Damascus:
Arab leaders attending the Arab Summit in Damascus this weekend made it clear that they see the “return” of millions of foreign Arabs to Israel as a critical part of any peace deal. Arabs claiming descent from those who fled Israel during the War of Independence would be granted Israeli citizenship under the 2002 Saudi Peace Plan, which also calls on Israel to immediately withdraw from all territories occupied by Jordan and Egypt until 1967, including much of Jerusalem.
Arab leaders confirmed their support for the Saudi plan on Saturday, but Syrian President Bashar Assad said that if Israel did not accept the plan in the near future, Arab governments could be forced to take alternative measures. Arab League Secretary-General Amr Moussa suggested that Arab nations “may have to take painful positions” if talks with Israel did not show progress in the near future.
Libyan President Moammar Ghaddafi criticized the Saudi initiative as not requiring enough of Israel. “Palestine is not only the West Bank and the Gaza Strip,” he said. Ghaddafi called for a single state between the Mediterranean and the Jordan River in which Arabs would be a majority.
They'd like to be threatening war. But given how many Arab countries did not show up to the summit, I'm not sure they can right now. Unless they have other allies (like the Russians) to help them.

UN chief (Ban Ki Boom) condemns anti-Islam film
Geert Wilders
Geert Wilders has called Islam's holy book a "fascist" text
UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon has strongly condemned a controversial film on Islam made by a Dutch politician, calling it "offensively anti-Islamic".Instead of calling islamic terrorism offensive)
Several Muslim countries have also condemned the film, a 15-minute polemic by the far-right MP Geert Wilder, which was posted online on Thursday.
Pakistan, Indonesia, Iran and Bangladesh were among those to protest.
The film sets verses from the Koran against a background of violent images from terror attacks.
"I condemn, in the strongest terms, the airing of Geert Wilders' offensively anti-Islamic film," Mr Ban said in a statement. (I guess pointing out what muslims do in the name of their "religion" is offensive)
"The right of free expression is not at stake here," he added. "Freedom must always be accompanied by social responsibility." ( Like the social responsibility shown by muslims flying planes into building, blowing up trains, market places, cutting the heads off of thousands of people, that kind of social responsibility?)
The EU's Slovenian presidency said the film served no purpose other than "inflaming hatred". ( It's called "opening your eyes" to what muslims keep telling us they are planning to do to us.)
'Defamatory'
In Pakistan there were small protests in several places on Friday against the film, while the government summoned the Dutch ambassador in Islamabad to lodge a protest.
Protests against Dutch MP's film in Karachi, 28 Mar 2008
The country's foreign ministry said the film was defamatory and "deeply offended" Muslim sentiments. ( And we can't upset the frail ego's and hyper-sensibilities of a group of immature imbeciles now can we?)
Pakistan said it told the Dutch ambassador that it was incumbent on the Netherlands to prosecute Mr Wilders for defamation and deliberately hurting Muslim sentiments, the official Associated Press of Pakistan news agency reported. (They got their frail feelings hurt, again.)
The world's most populous Muslim nation, Indonesia, also condemned the film, saying it was "misleading and full of racism". (Unlike the vile anti-western hatred spuwed forth by imams in western mosques I suppose.)
The foreign ministry in Bangladesh issued a statement calling the film "unwarranted" and "mindless".
Iran said it was blasphemous, anti-Islamic and heinous - a sign it said of deep hatred felt by Westerners towards Muslims. (gee, With some 11,000 terrorist attacks since 9/11 I wonder why we could possibly have something against islam!)
In the Netherlands, Mr Wilders has said he is happy with what he sees as the relatively positive domestic reaction to his film.
But the Dutch prime minister said the film wrongly equated Islam with violence.
"We reject this interpretation," Prime Minister Jan Peter Balkenende said shortly before its publication.( Maybe he can reject reality but for those of us in the real world, hardly)
"The vast majority of Muslims reject extremism and violence and in fact the victims are often also Muslims."

LiveLeak - from heroes to dhimmis
This is what is now on the front page of LiveLeak
So the one hope we had that provider would have the balls to show the movie has caved in to the "religion of Perpetual Outrage", proving Wilders assertion more poignantly then even he could. The capitulation to the barbarians is virtually complete, from ISP's, webhosts, the MSM, lefty politicians and governments, to the Eu and the U.N, they have all signalled their dhimmitude to the lowest scum of the earth, sub-human douche bags. The war between citizens will commence relatively soon as western populations begin to push back against the rising tide of the islamic hordes. Violent civil wars will loom sooner than later as we are reaching our very limits of tolerance with our dhimmi politicians and their barbarian masters from the middle-east.
Enough is enough, stock up and prepare for the final battle for our own survival!!
Following threats to our staff of a very serious nature, and some ill informed reports from certain corners of the British media that could directly lead to the harm of some of our staff, Liveleak.com has been left with no other choice but to remove Fitna from our servers.
This is a sad day for freedom of speech on the net but we have to place the safety and well being of our staff above all else. We would like to thank the thousands of people, from all backgrounds and religions, who gave us their support. They realised LiveLeak.com is a vehicle for many opinions and not just for the support of one.
Perhaps there is still hope that this situation may produce a discussion that could benefit and educate all of us as to how we can accept one another's culture.
We stood for what we believe in, the ability to be heard, but in the end the price was too high.

Reaction from Network Solutions to my complaint about removing fitnathe movie.com
When fitnathemovie.com went off-line I complained to Network solutions, today I got a reply.
This was my response
Network Solutions does not proactively police the content of our customers' sites. If a complaint is received, however, we do conduct a review to determine whether the site's content violates our company's Acceptable Use Policy.
But you are pro actively censoring a site, a site that has no content. It has a parking page, nothing more. Are your clients not allowed to advertise their own websites, if they are hosted with Network Solutions, I don't remember reading about that in your AUP.
Do you pre-screen the contents of the numerous Islamic hate sites that you host. Do you pre-screen the vile disgusting beheading videos, killing of U.S. soldiers videos? This censorship is a cowardly, Politically Correct act to appease a few radical muslims. As Americans, you should be ashamed of yourselves. You are betraying the very values that allowed you to become a successful AMERICAN Corporation.
You will never receive any of my personal business again!
Dear Sir,

"What happens, what happens at the Parliament?" "We go and kill everybody."
An Update on the Toronto Jihad Plot. Oh, and by the way, has the Muslim community in Canada gotten around to instituting transparent, inspectable programs in every school and mosque teaching against the jihad ideology and Islamic supremacism? No? So then how can we be sure that there won't be other such plots?
"Alleged Toronto terror plot detailed in court," by Isabel Teotonio in the Toronto Star (thanks to Kathy Shaidle):
The "shocking and sensational" inner workings of an alleged homegrown terror cell were unveiled yesterday in a Brampton court – and included the plotting of an attack "much greater" in scale than the London 2005 bombings that killed 52 people.
Here are some of the transcripts of the jihadists' conversations:
In a video, Person 1, shown sitting in the dark under what appears to be a tent, speaks to the group:
"We're here to kick it off man. We're here to get the rewards of everybody that's gonna come after us, God willing, if we don't (get) a victory, God willing, our kids will get it. If not them, their kids will get it, if not them, the(n) five generations down somebody will get it, God willing. This is the promise of Allah. . . .
Excerpts from a conversation in a car during
"Operation Badr," recorded covertly by police:
Person 3: "What happens, what happens at the Parliament?"
Person 1: "We go and kill everybody."
Person 3: "And then what?"
Informant: "And then read about it ..."
Person 1: "We get victory."
Informant: "And take, uh, Paul, um, what's his name ____. Paul loser."
Person 1: "Paul Martin."
Person 3: "Yeah."
Person 1: "Nah, I wish he had won guy."
Informant: "What you . . . what you talkin' about?"
Person 1: "Now it's the other guy, Harper."
Person 1 talks to the group:
"Rome has to be defeated. And we have to be the ones that do it, no holding back, whether it's one man that survives, you have to do it. This is what the Covenant's all about, you have to do it. And God willing, we will do it. God willing, we will get the victory."
"Rome has to be defeated" doesn't refer to an Italian plot, but to the necessity, as they see it, to take down the West, in accord with Muhammad's prophecy that Constantinople would fall to Islam first, and then Rome.

Misunderstanders of Their "Peaceful" Faith
H/T Jihad Watch
Our friend D. C. Watson updates his master list.
Here is an incomplete list of Muslims in the United States who have been arrested and/or convicted for either planning or acting out their "jihad" against unsuspecting, innocent men, women and children. Will the Muslim organizations in America ever stand up for once and address the facts, or will they continue trying to mask what's really going on within their own community by accusing Americans of practicing the biases and double standards that they themselves practice in accordance with their own beliefs?
Step right up, place your bets.

Islam Beheaded: The Information Superhighway and the Death of Mohammedanism
H/T Answering Infidels
Muhammad’s empire of faith has managed to thrive in the modern world for one simple reason: Muslims have kept Muhammad’s dark past a secret. Indeed, they have gone beyond keeping it a secret; they have somehow convinced themselves (and many others) that Muhammad was an outstanding moral example, perhaps even the greatest moral example of all time. Perpetuating this fraud has been, in my opinion, the most stupendous deception in world history.
True, there are plenty of instances in Muhammad’s life that one could view as the deeds of a moral individual, and Muslims are quick to point out his acts of charity and his dedication to prayer. However, in assessing the overall character of a man, we must take into account all of his actions, not just the ones that support our feelings about him. For instance, suppose that I become convinced that the greatest person in history was a man named John Gacy. I could point to his charity work at local hospitals, his activities in the Boy Scouts and the Jaycees, his patient endurance of numerous physical ailments, his community activities such as neighbourhood barbecues and other social gatherings, his generosity to others, his dedication to his family, and his outstanding work ethic, which made him one of the pillars of his local business community. Yet, if I am to make a case for the moral superiority of Mr. Gacy, I must not leave out the fact that he raped, tortured, and murdered more than thirty boys and buried them under his house.[2]
I bring this up because of the peculiar tactic employed by Muslims whenever the character of Muhammad is challenged. When someone argues that Muhammad was a robber or a murderer, Muslims suddenly cry out in one accord, “But he was merciful and kind! He started Islam, and Islam is good! God revealed the Qur’an through him! How dare you say something bad about him!? He was the greatest prophet ever! Stop being so intolerant!” The difficulty here is that, no matter how loudly a Muslim shouts these objections, they have no power to overcome the historical fact that Muhammad was a robber and a murderer. Yet, to a Muslim who already believes that Muhammad was a prophet, the Islamic line of reasoning apparently makes sense. Nevertheless, to anyone who is not a committed Muslim, any claim to moral superiority will be an empirical issue, that is, a matter of examining and weighing the evidence.

Ik voer een strijd tegen de islamisering van Nederland en de massa-immigratie. Ik sta hierin niet alleen. Inmiddels blijkt dat zes op de tien Nederlanders de islam als bedreiging ziet en vindt dat de massa-immigratie de grootste fout uit onze geschiedenis is. Dat geeft hoop voor de toekomst.
Maar voorlopig kijk ik aan tegen enorme kosten. Het filmpje en de naweeën kosten veel geld. De Partij voor de Vrijheid aanvaardt geen subsidie en is dus helemaal aangewezen op de steun van vrijheidslievende burgers zoals u. Ik heb uw hulp dringend nodig. Mag ik u om steun vragen? Elke donatie is welkom!

Alvast hartelijk dank voor uw steun
To our international friends:
I'm waging a campaign against Islam in the Netherlands and the mass immigration. I am not alone in this. Meanwhile, a survey shows that six out of ten Dutch people see Islam as a threat and believe that mass immigration is the biggest mistake in our history. That gives hope for the future.
Please support our struggle. The battle for the survival of freedom is not something we can do all by ourselves. Party for Freedom (PVV) is the only political party in the Dutch Parliament that refuses government subsidy. Therefore, we are dependent on your support. We need your help urgently, as costs are mounting. Freedom isn’t free.

Wilders wants debate evening on Fitna
H/T Klein Verzet
Geert Wilders wants to enter into a debate with opponents and supporters after the presentation of his film Fitna. The MP for the Freedom party PVV said this in an interview with press agency GPD on Thursday.
The debates should prevent a discussion that focuses only on any disturbances that the film may provoke, and thus overshadowing the content of the film.
Wilders' initiative to organize debate evenings comes in response to accusations that he is avoiding discussion with opponents.
"Let's just sit down and talk with each other about what we think of these problems. I love debate and can handle some opposition. My opponents may call me crazy if they want, as long as there is no cursing and no threats."

Wilders: Qur'an film will be out before April 1st
H/T Jihad Watch
I guess it really does it exist. And yes, I would still be glad to post it here at Jihad Watch.
"Wilders Sticks to Film Release before April," from NIS News (thanks to Fjordman):
THE HAGUE, 26/03/08 - MP Geert Wilders says he is continuing to try to release his anti-Koran film before 1 April. How he will do so is unclear, as the Internet provider that was to have broadcast the film has pulled out.
Wilders is refusing to say what possibilities he still has up his sleeve now that his website has been taken off the air by the large American provider Network Solutions. It is not possible to broadcast the film via a small provider because the site would then immediately crash as a result of the large number of visitors expected at the moment of its release.
Nonetheless, Wilders said yesterday he was continuing to try to broadcast the film before March ends. He repeated for the umpteenth time that the film entitled Fitna is not an April Fool's Day joke. [...]
Meanwhile, attempts to censor it pre-emptively continue:
The Netherlands Islamic Federation (NIF) is applying this Friday for a preventative ban on the film. NIF is asking the district court in The Hague to have an independent expert see the film and to judge whether it is blasphemous. In that case, it cannot be shown, according to the Muslim group. No preventative ban on any product whatsoever has ever been imposed in the Netherlands.
I guess it really does it exist. And yes, I would still be glad to post it here at Jihad Watch.
"Wilders Sticks to Film Release before April," from NIS News (thanks to Fjordman):
THE HAGUE, 26/03/08 - MP Geert Wilders says he is continuing to try to release his anti-Koran film before 1 April. How he will do so is unclear, as the Internet provider that was to have broadcast the film has pulled out.
Wilders is refusing to say what possibilities he still has up his sleeve now that his website has been taken off the air by the large American provider Network Solutions. It is not possible to broadcast the film via a small provider because the site would then immediately crash as a result of the large number of visitors expected at the moment of its release.
Nonetheless, Wilders said yesterday he was continuing to try to broadcast the film before March ends. He repeated for the umpteenth time that the film entitled Fitna is not an April Fool's Day joke. [...]
Meanwhile, attempts to censor it pre-emptively continue:

Glad to see that at least someone in the U.S. has the cojones to be willing to air a short movie(15 Min) that "MAY OR MAY NOT" be taken as offensive. But then, as anyone who has followed the religion of perpetual outrage, knows that our mere existence is apparently just to much to bear for some muslims.

Wilders declines offer from muslim broadcaster (NMO)
H/T De Telegraaf
HILVERSUM - Geert Wilders has rejected a possible offer from the Dutch Muslim Broadcasting (NMO) to broadcast his anti-Koran film Fitna. "No way, NMO" said the Lower Chamber member in response on Sunday.
The broadcaster would consider airing the film with certain conditions. But on one of those conditions - that the broadcaster could see Fitna in advance to make sure that it contains no legally libel content - Wilders rejected it out of hand. "I'll show it to no one beforehand."
The politician is still hoping to get it "on the Internet quickly." The website that Wilders wanted his film to be broadcast on was recently taken off line.
The NMO had not yet officially approached Wilders. They first wanted an internal and external discussion of the plan. The other condition for any broadcast was that after the broadcast, Wilders would continue the debate with supporters and opponents.
The NMO has allowed islam critics in the past. Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Theo van Gogh have appeared on the broadcaster. Wilders has also previously been invited, but was not interested, said Abdelmajid Khairoun chairman of the Dutch Muslim Council, the owners of the NMO.
According Khairoun was the consideration of the NMO is a sign that Muslims "in this difficult time" are ready for reconciliation and dialogue. He thinks that the taboo surrounding the film must be broken. "Broadcast by the NMO is a way for our audience to get used to the film ."
Sounds on the surface to be reasonable. But knowing muslims I think this is a carefully laid trap to bamboozle Wilders in the so-called "Debate" after the movie. Also the conditions do not meet with Wilders approval, namely that the muslim broadcaster gets to screen the movie first to see if there is anything they can scream about to the various human rights and legal groups. It just seems like a giant ruse.

Wilders' Site Suspended by Network Solutions
In one of the most bizarre I have ever seen, Network solutions has suspended the domain for Geert Wilders 15 Min movie about the brutality and violence inciting Suras in the koran. Preemptive censorship and denial of freedom of speech should outrage any freedom loving North American. More below, I'm beside myself that this is happening in supposedly the most "freedom loving country in the world".

Geert Wilders addesses Dutch Parliament on Islam
The following is the speech which Geert Wilders delivered to the Dutch parliament on the 19th of March. We in the western world need more eloquent and courageous political leader like this.
Mr Wilders’ contribution to the parliamentary debate on Islamic activism:
Madam Speaker, allow me, first, to express my sincere thanks to you personally for having planned a debate on Islam on the very day of my birthday. I could not have wished for a nicer present! Madam Speaker, approximately 1400 years ago war was declared on us by an ideology of hate and violence which arose at the time and was proclaimed by a barbarian who called himself the Prophet Mohammed. I am referring to Islam.
Madam Speaker, let me start with the foundation of the Islamic faith, the Koran. The Koran’s core theme is about the duty of all Muslims to fight non-Muslims; an Islamic Mein Kampf, in which fight means war, jihad. The Koran is above all a book of war – a call to butcher non-Muslims (2:191, 3:141, 4:91, 5:3), to roast them (4:56, 69:30-69:32), and to cause bloodbaths amongst them (47:4). Jews are compared to monkeys and pigs (2:65, 5:60, 7:166), while people who believe in Jesus Christ as the Son of God must according to the Koran be fought (9:30).
Madam Speaker, the West has no problems with Jews or Christians, but it does have problems with Islam. It is still possible, even today, for Muslims to view the Koran, which they regard as valid for all time, as a licence to kill. And that is exactly what happens. The Koran is worded in such a way that its instructions are addressed to Muslims for eternity, which includes today’s Muslims. This in contrast to texts in the Bible, which is formulated as a number of historical narratives, placing events in a distant past. Let us remind ourselves that it was Muslims, not Jews or Christians, who committed the catastrophic terrorist attacks in New York, Madrid and London; and that it was no coincidence that Theo van Gogh was brutally murdered by a Muslim, Mohammed Bouyeri.
Madam Speaker, I acknowledge that there are people who call themselves Muslims and who respect our laws. My party, the Freedom Party, has nothing against such people, of course. However, the Koran does have something against them. For it is stated in the Koran in Sura 2, verse 85, that those believers who do not believe in everything the Koran states will be humiliated and receive the severest punishment; which means that they will roast in Hell. In other words, people who call themselves Muslims but who do not believe, for example, in Sura 9, verse 30, which states that Jews and Christians must be fought, or, for example, in Sura 5, verse 38, which states that the hand of a thief must be cut off, such people will be humiliated and roast in Hell. Note that it is not me who is making this up. All this can be found in the Koran. The Koran also states that Muslims who believe in only part of the Koran are in fact apostates, and we know what has to happen to apostates. They have to be killed.
Madam Speaker, the Koran is a book that incites to violence. I remind the House that the distribution of such texts is unlawful according to Article 132 of our Penal Code. In addition, the Koran incites to hatred and calls for murder and mayhem. The distribution of such texts is made punishable by Article 137(e). The Koran is therefore a highly dangerous book; a book which is completely against our legal order and our democratic institutions. In this light, it is an absolute necessity that the Koran be banned for the defence and reinforcement of our civilisation and our constitutional state. I shall propose a second-reading motion to that effect.
Madam Speaker, there is no such thing as “moderate Islam”. As Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan said the other day, and I quote, “There is no moderate or immoderate Islam. Islam is Islam and that’s it”. Islam is in pursuit of dominance. It wishes to exact its imperialist agenda by force on a worldwide scale (8:39). This is clear from European history. Fortunately, the first Islamic invasion of Europe was stopped at Poitiers in 732; the second in Vienna in 1683. Madam Speaker, let us ensure that the third Islamic invasion, which is currently in full spate, will be stopped too in spite of its insidious nature and notwithstanding the fact that, in contrast to the 8th and 17th centuries, it has no need for an Islamic army because the scared “dhimmis” in the West, also those in Dutch politics, have left their doors wide open to Islam and Muslims.
Apart from conquest, Madam Speaker, Islam is also bent on installing a totally different form of law and order, namely Sharia law. This makes Islam, apart from a religion for hundreds of millions of Muslims also, and in particular, a political ideology (with political/constitutional/Islamic basic values, etc). Islam is an ideology without any respect for others; not for Christians, not for Jews, not for non believers and not for apostates. Islam aims to dominate, subject, kill and wage war.
Madam Speaker, the Islamic incursion must be stopped. Islam is the Trojan Horse in Europe. If we do not stop Islamification now, Eurabia and Netherabia will just be a matter of time. One century ago, there were approximately 50 Muslims in the Netherlands. Today, there are about 1 million Muslims in this country. Where will it end? We are heading for the end of European and Dutch civilisation as we know it. Where is our Prime Minister in all this? In reply to my questions in the House he said, without batting an eyelid, that there is no question of our country being Islamified. Now, this reply constituted a historical error as soon as it was uttered. Very many Dutch citizens, Madam Speaker, experience the presence of Islam around them. And I can report that they have had enough of burkas, headscarves, the ritual slaughter of animals, so called honour revenge, blaring minarets, female circumcision, hymen restoration operations, abuse of homosexuals, Turkish and Arabic on the buses and trains as well as on town hall leaflets, halal meat at grocery shops and department stores, Sharia exams, the Finance Minister’s Sharia mortgages, and the enormous overrepresentation of Muslims in the area of crime, including Moroccan street terrorists.
In spite of all this, Madam Speaker, there is hope. Fortunately. The majority of Dutch citizens have become fully aware of the danger, and regard Islam as a threat to our culture. My party, the Freedom Party, takes those citizens seriously and comes to their defence.
Many Dutch citizens are fed up to the back teeth and yearn for action. However, their representatives in The Hague are doing precisely nothing. They are held back by fear, political correctness or simply electoral motives. This is particularly clear in the case of PvdA, the Dutch Labour Party, which is afraid of losing Muslim voters. The Prime Minister said in Indonesia the other day that Islam does not pose any danger. Minister Donner believes that Sharia law should be capable of being introduced in the Netherlands if the majority want it. Minister Vogelaar babbles about the future Netherlands as a country with a Judeo Christian Islamic tradition, and that she aims to help Islam take root in Dutch society. In saying this, the Minister shows that she has obviously gone stark raving mad. She is betraying Dutch culture and insulting Dutch citizens. Madam Speaker, my party, the Freedom Party, demands that Minister Vogelaar retract her statement. If the Minister fails to do so, the Freedom Party parliamentary group will withdraw its support for her. No Islamic tradition must ever be established in the Netherlands: not now and also not in a few centuries’ time.
Madam Speaker, let me briefly touch on the government’s response to the WRR [Netherlands Scientific Council for Government Policy] report. On page 12 of its response, the government states that Islam is not contrary to democracy or human rights. All I can say to that is that things can’t get much more idiotic than this.
Madam Speaker, it is a few minutes to twelve. If we go on like this, Islam will herald the end of our Western civilisation as well as Dutch culture.
I would like to round off my first-reading contribution with a personal appeal to the Prime Minister on behalf of a great many Dutch citizens: stop the Islamification of the Netherlands!
Mr Balkenende, a historic task rests on your shoulders. Be courageous. Do what many Dutch citizens are screaming out for. Do what the country needs. Stop all immigration from Muslim countries, ban all building of new mosques, close all Islamic schools, ban burkas and the Koran. Expel all criminal Muslims from the country, including those Moroccan street terrorists that drive people mad. Accept your responsibility! Stop Islamification!
Enough is enough, Mr Balkenende. Enough is enough.

Canadian Anti-Terror Plans Found in Garbage Pile
H/T Ottawa Citizen
Passerby finds anti-terror force's plans discarded on Bank Street
Plans showing the layout of a new building for a Canadian Forces counter-terrorism unit based in Trenton, Ont., have been found in a pile of garbage on Bank Street.
The 26 blueprints, stamped with Department of National Defence markings, show everything from the location of the security fence to the floor plan of the new home of the Canadian Joint Incident Response Unit at CFB Trenton.
The unit is the military's main responder to a terrorist attack using a weapon of mass destruction.
The plans also show the electrical grid scheme for the unit's computers and details about sewer systems, areas for workshops, sea container loading docks, and offices for the unit's various troops. There is also a blueprint for the storage bay for the unit's robots, which are designed to detect chemical and biological agents.
There are no markings that indicate the documents -- printed on March 5, 2007 -- are classified as secret, but military officials yesterday acknowledged the seriousness of the security breach.
After being informed by the Citizen about the blueprints, the Defence Department immediately launched an investigation into how the plans found their way into a pile of trash in the Glebe.
No Defence Department buildings are in the immediate area where the documents were found and there is the possibility the blueprints had been thrown out by a government employee or a worker involved in the construction of the new building.
The blueprints were found March 13 by the spouse of Anthony Salloum, an analyst with the Rideau Institute, the left-leaning Ottawa think-tank. As the couple were on their way to dinner, Mr. Salloum's spouse noticed a large pile of garbage bags on the sidewalk, on top of which sat seven large rolled tubes of paper stamped with Defence Department markings.
"I thought they looked interesting, but we were headed to dinner, so I figured I'd pick one up on the way back if they were still there," said Mr. Salloum.
The blueprints were still sitting in the garbage an hour or so later, so Mr. Salloum took one of the rolls. He doesn't know what happened to the rest of the rolls.
Back at the office, he briefly examined the blueprints, 26 in all, which were rolled together, but didn't comprehend fully what he was looking at. At first, officials at the Rideau Institute, which have been critical of the government's defence policy and the Afghan war, thought the plans, with their 8 Wing CFB Trenton designation, showed new roadwork at the base.
The documents then sat untouched for a week in the corner of Mr. Salloum's office.
Institute officials showed the blueprints to the Citizen yesterday and the newspaper was able to determine they were for the new counter-terrorism building. Each page is marked "National Defence, Project No. IE070599, NBCD Company, 8 Wing, Trenton, electrical site plan."
NBCD Company was the name of the joint incident response unit up until last year.
The Canadian Joint Incident Response Unit handles "Jack Bauer-24" type scenarios, according to its officers. It provides a national response for chemical, biological and radioactive threats, whether it be tracking down and dealing with a weapon of mass destruction or collecting and cataloguing evidence that might be used in court to prosecute terrorists for creating or setting off such a device.

How a Film Triggered a Global Panic
In an excellent article about the pure, unabashed idiocy that has taken over the cowardly leftist, islam appeasing, cultural relativist's tiny brains. Like a woman who tip-toes around a violent, abusive husband, leftist elitists are tip-toeing around islam for fear of get a whack, pathetic isn't it?
Be sure to read both parts. Emphases are my own
H/T Spiegel Online
It is the kind of stunt that has many fearing the worst: Dutch right-wing populist Geert Wilders plans to release a film about Islam. Politicians worldwide are already trying to stop the project, before a single scene has been shown. Critics fear the film could lead to bloodshed in many countries.
Let us summarize what has happened to date. On Nov. 2, 2004, an Islamic fundamentalist murdered Dutch filmmaker Theo van Gogh, a descendant of the painter Vincent van Gogh, in broad daylight on a street in Amsterdam.
The killer, a 26-year-old Dutch citizen, the son of Moroccan immigrants, shot the filmmaker at 9 a.m. as van Gogh was riding his bicycle. He then slit his throat and, using a knife, pinned a note to his victim's chest, claiming responsibility and explaining his motives. The killer's true target was politician Ayaan Hirsi Ali. But she, unlike van Gogh, was under 24-hour police protection. The bloody act was also a declaration of war against Dutch society, which, as the murderer was convinced, was controlled "by the Jews."
Theo van Gogh and Ayaan Hirsi Ali had collaborated to produce a short film called "Submission," which uses four real-life examples to illustrate the poor treatment of women in Islam. The film was shown on Dutch television in the summer of 2004. Mosques in the Netherlands were unhappy about it, but their reactions were less vehement than expected. Van Gogh had already developed a reputation as a provocateur who paid little attention to what people thought about him -- a committed enfant terrible. He liked to refer to Muslims as "geitenneukers," or goat fuckers. He made fun of dead Jews by describing them as "copulating yellow stars in the gas chamber." He also had little regard for Christian values and symbols.
Even more than the deadly attack on "populist" Pim Fortuyn, who was shot to death by a "white Dutchman" in 2002, the van Gogh murder brought to an abrupt end the Dutch dream of a multicultural society, one in which everyone could live more or less as he pleased. From one day to the next, the Dutch realized that they had long ignored a significant problem. The country had more than a million immigrants, most of them from North Africa, who were increasingly isolating themselves from or feeling marginalized by society the longer they lived in the Netherlands.
In the November 2006 elections, the Freedom Party (Partij voor de Vrijheid), which liberal politician Geert Wilders, 45, had established two years earlier, won nine of the 150 seats in the Dutch parliament. Not unlike van Gogh, Wilders seems to gravitate toward conflict. He is as popular as he is controversial. His friends value him for his directness, while his enemies disparage him as a populist walking in the footsteps of murdered politician Pim Fortuyn.
Wilders, who believes that the Netherlands has been "taken hostage" by well-intentioned people on the left, wants to see the country "returned to the people." He wants both the Koran and Hitler's "Mein Kampf" to be banned in the Netherlands, because, as he claims, they incite people to commit acts of hate and violence. He also wants the country to deport criminals with dual citizenship to their countries of origin. Wilders was voted "politician of the year" by Dutch public broadcaster NOS in December 2007.
Wilders isn't exactly free to enjoy the tribute, though. He is under 24-hour police protection and has slept in a different place every night since Islamic Web sites first began calling for his beheading. While the police take the death threats seriously, Wilders is more relaxed. "You don't get used to it," he said in an interview, "but you learn to live with the threat."

Geert is at his finest in articulating his view of the radical islamist. If only we had a politician in this country with the cojones to express this view on our behalf.

The Mystery of Global Warming's Missing Heat
3000 robots have detected no temperature increase in the oceans. Satellites have detected no atmospheric temperature increases. There has been no real surface temperature increases since 1998.
Can we now put this hoax back in the box and get on with reality and commonsense. Not likely as there are way to many people who make a very comfortable living propagating this myth. From the MSM to eco-freaks to tow-the-line scientists, these people are making obscene fortunes promoting this crap and politicians are to dimwitted to realize their being had or are complicit(like Al Gore) as they to stand to make fortunes from their association with this New-World religion.
How many nails will have to be put into the coffin of AGW before it can finally be called DEAD?

Morning Edition, March 19, 2008 · Some 3,000 scientific robots that are plying the ocean have sent home a puzzling message. These diving instruments suggest that the oceans have not warmed up at all over the past four or five years. That could mean global warming has taken a breather. Or it could mean scientists aren't quite understanding what their robots are telling them.
This is puzzling in part because here on the surface of the Earth, the years since 2003 have been some of the hottest on record. But Josh Willis at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory says the oceans are what really matter when it comes to global warming.
In fact, 80 percent to 90 percent of global warming involves heating up ocean waters. They hold much more heat than the atmosphere can. So Willis has been studying the ocean with a fleet of robotic instruments called the Argo system. The buoys can dive 3,000 feet down and measure ocean temperature. Since the system was fully deployed in 2003, it has recorded no warming of the global oceans.
"There has been a very slight cooling, but not anything really significant," Willis says. So the buildup of heat on Earth may be on a brief hiatus. "Global warming doesn't mean every year will be warmer than the last. And it may be that we are in a period of less rapid warming."
In recent years, heat has actually been flowing out of the ocean and into the air. This is a feature of the weather phenomenon known as El Nino. So it is indeed possible the air has warmed but the ocean has not. But it's also possible that something more mysterious is going on.
That becomes clear when you consider what's happening to global sea level. Sea level rises when the oceans get warm because warmer water expands. This accounts for about half of global sea level rise. So with the oceans not warming, you would expect to see less sea level rise. Instead, sea level has risen about half an inch in the past four years. That's a lot.
Willis says some of this water is apparently coming from a recent increase in the melting rate of glaciers in Greenland and Antarctica.
"But in fact there's a little bit of a mystery. We can't account for all of the sea level increase we've seen over the last three or four years," he says.
One possibility is that the sea has, in fact, warmed and expanded — and scientists are somehow misinterpreting the data from the diving buoys.
But if the aquatic robots are actually telling the right story, that raises a new question: Where is the extra heat all going?
Kevin Trenberth at the National Center for Atmospheric Research says it's probably going back out into space. The Earth has a number of natural thermostats, including clouds, which can either trap heat and turn up the temperature, or reflect sunlight and help cool the planet.
That can't be directly measured at the moment, however.
"Unfortunately, we don't have adequate tracking of clouds to determine exactly what role they've been playing during this period," Trenberth says.
It's also possible that some of the heat has gone even deeper into the ocean, he says. Or it's possible that scientists need to correct for some other feature of the planet they don't know about. It's an exciting time, though, with all this new data about global sea temperature, sea level and other features of climate.
"I suspect that we'll able to put this together with a little bit more perspective and further analysis," Trenberth says. "But what this does is highlight some of the issues and send people back to the drawing board."
Trenberth and Willis agree that a few mild years have no effect on the long-term trend of global warming. But they say there are still things to learn about how our planet copes with the heat.

Dutch police arrest suspected terrorist
H/T Expatica.com
Once again the "religion of Peace" is showing how compatible it is with Western society. While their figure heads talk of peace, tolerance and accommodation, their minions are plotting to kill us, with kindness I suppose.
Dutch national investigative services arrested a 26-year-old Pakistani national on Thursday night suspected of planning an attack in Western Europe.
14 March 2008
ROTTERDAM – Dutch national investigative services arrested a 26-year-old Pakistani national on Thursday night suspected of planning an attack in Western Europe.
He allegedly belongs to an international terrorist network, the national office of the public prosecutor announced Friday.
Justice officials say there are no indications the man was involved in the planning of attacks in the Netherlands. The network he reportedly belongs to has made preparations in the past for a suicide attack in Barcelona.
That attack would reportedly be directed at supporters of assassinated Pakistani opposition leader Benazir Bhutto.
The Spanish authorities announced earlier they had disrupted these preparations with a number of arrests in January. The Spaniards suspected that the terrorist organization also wanted to commit attacks in France, Portugal, Germany, and the UK.
The national investigation services started the investigation into the Pakistani arrested last night at the end of January, based on information from the general intelligence and security service (AIVD).
The suspect has been in the Netherlands since September 2007 and was enrolled in a 4-year professional education programme, the prosecutor reports. "He didn't attend many classes for the programme. He mainly worked as a house painter."
Police have had the man under surveillance since the start of the investigation. The prosecution department decided to have him arrested in order to prevent terrorist activities.
The Pakistani will be arraigned in Rotterdam on Monday.

How "Islam" treats it's women
This video shows how muslims defend treating their women like cattle. It's an interesting look into the disgusting mindset of every day islam. It should become painfully clear, if not already, that islam is not equivalent to Christianity on any level.

A petition to remove Wilders security detail.
Being a Dutch Expat, this kind of action doesn't surprise me. This kind of idiot would rather capitulate to Islamists then take a stand for their own country and countrymen. This just shows how PC and indoctrinated a lot of the Dutch have become. Their moral relativism and Ultra-Left-wing ideology has completely distorted their view of reality to the point that they would rather turn on their own then see what is really in front of them. It is extremely disheartening to see what my former country has turned into, but then I remember why I left in the first place, which is that I had already seen this coming in the 70's.

AMSTERDAM - A man from North Holland has started a petition to have the security of Geert Wilders stopped. Rudger Van Slooten believes that Wilders has forfeited his right to protection with his provocative opinions.
The 36-year-old man from Julianadorp says it is a personal affront to him that the taxpayers' have to pay for the security of a race provocateur such as Wilders'. 'No security for Wilders', he writes plainly.
Van Slooten started an online petition and hopes to collect 40,000 signatures, so that the Lower House will be required to discuss the subject.
He says to the North Hollands newspaper, that the PVV-leader in his fight against Islam "knowingly and complicitly" is endangering the security of the Dutch state. Thereby endangering the lives of his countrymen.
It would be great if there are more people who sign my petition, than who voted for Wilders.

Carbon reductions? Not at the U.N.
While the U.N. is calling for draconian and economy crippling reductions in CO2, the fairies at the U.N. are jet setting around the world. Since 1999, they have held more then 230 conferences on "Climate Change" related nonsense.
These people are by far the biggest hypocrites I have ever seen. They want us to walk the walk, while all they do is talk and talk and talk. Doing nothing for the planet themselves. @ssholes!

Amsterdam: The Burka Coverup
H/T Islam in Europe
Dutch youth channel 101TV recently published a documentary in which an actress in a burka was sent out to the streets to test how Amsterdam residents would react to her. Walking in the street she dropped a bag of oranges. In her normal, Dutch clothing she was helped by many people, but while wearing a burka nobody stopped to help(or so they would have you believe).
In the documentary the actress said that nobody helped her, but AT5, (who had arrived at the same location for a different story of their own) filmed the takes, and shows that what 101TV filmed was something completely different. People who passed by the burka clad actress were told by the director on film to continue walking as there was filming going on. When people started helping her collect the oranges, they were told to stop, by the 101TV crew.
Discrimination was hard to find, so 101TV just made it up.
The AT5 report can be seen here. The filming of the burka story starts at around 1 minute into the clip.
Be patient, the AT5 server is taking a pounding trying to serve up the clip.
UPDATE: Video stream has been fixed and works well.

Dutch want Koran film shown but fear reactions: poll
H/T Reuters, Via LGF
A revealing article, with the standard El-Reuters interjections, but revealing non the less.
AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - A majority of Dutch people want an anti-Koran film made by a politician to be broadcast even though they fear it will stoke tension with Muslims and harm relations with Arab countries, a poll showed on Wednesday.
A newspaper reported on Monday that the Dutch government is looking into whether it could ban the film by right-wing lawmaker Geert Wilders, who has likened the Koran to Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf, but given few details about his movie.
He has also called the Koran a "fascist" book that incites violence and said it should be banned.
The poll by TNS NIPO for RTL television showed that 54 percent thought the film should be broadcast although 76 percent expected it to increase tensions between Muslims and non-Muslims and 74 percent saw worsening relations with Arab nations.
The survey of 600 people conducted on February 29 showed that 68 percent expected a boycott like that seen against Denmark after cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed appeared in a Danish newspaper.
Around 5,000 Afghans protested on Wednesday about the reprinting of the cartoons and Wilders' plan for the Koran film. Pakistan's foreign ministry accused the Dutch politician of "propagating the politics of hate and promoting xenophobia".
Dutch Prime Minister Jan Peter Balkenende said last week the country risked economic sanctions and attacks on its troops in Afghanistan because of the film.
Wilders is calling the film "Fitna", an Arabic term used in the Koran and sometimes translated as "strife". The Web site where he plans to post the film (www.fitnathemovie.com) went live on Wednesday, showing a picture of the cover of the Koran.
In 2004 the Netherlands -- home to almost 1 million Muslims or 6 percent of the population -- was plunged into turmoil when an Islamic militant killed director Theo Van Gogh over a film he made accusing Islam of condoning violence against women.

New Mohamed cartoon: A cartoonist's own words
H/T Infidel Bloggers Alliance
Kurt Westergaard, the exploding turban of Mo cartoonist from Jyllands posten has made another drawing trying to explain his feelings concerning terrorism and the attempt on his life.
In Kurt Westergaard's own words: "It is me on the right. My head is about to explode of anger concerning the insult to my person. At the same time I am angry about the actions of terror in New York, Madrid and London. I had a special personal relation to New York. I loved to sit in the wonderful bookstore, Borders, in the World Trade Center. To the left I have added the old drawing of Mohammad, because it started it all. The hare symbolizes my own personal courage, which is not that big. It is the part of me, which maybe prefers to get away, and that cannot control everything."
With the recent capture of a group planning to kill him, his forced hiding, his wife's near expulsion from the kinder garden (she was sent away a few days), where she works - I can understand the worry about courage.
I for one think him very brave - the hare should be a tiger - and I applaud and thank him for his fantastic original drawing.

Researcher: Basic Greenhouse Equations "Totally Wrong"
And so continues the saga of the ever more unlikely Globull Warming Myth. For the umpteenth time, new research, by a former AGW believing scientist, dispels the myth that Climate Change is man made or catastrophic. Please read the article in it's entirety as is lays out a good case.

New derivation of equations governing the greenhouse effect reveals "runaway warming" impossible
Miklós Zágoni isn't just a physicist and environmental researcher. He is also a global warming activist and Hungary's most outspoken supporter of the Kyoto Protocol. Or was.
That was until he learned the details of a new theory of the greenhouse effect, one that not only gave far more accurate climate predictions here on Earth, but Mars too. The theory was developed by another Hungarian scientist, Ferenc Miskolczi, an atmospheric physicist with 30 years of experience and a former researcher with NASA's Ames Research Center.
After studying it, Zágoni stopped calling global warming a crisis, and has instead focused on presenting the new theory to other climatologists. The data fit extremely well. "I fell in love," he stated at the International Climate Change Conference this week.
"Runaway greenhouse theories contradict energy balance equations," Miskolczi states. Just as the theory of relativity sets an upper limit on velocity, his theory sets an upper limit on the greenhouse effect, a limit which prevents it from warming the Earth more than a certain amount.
How did modern researchers make such a mistake? They relied upon equations derived over 80 years ago, equations which left off one term from the final solution.
Miskolczi's story reads like a book. Looking at a series of differential equations for the greenhouse effect, he noticed the solution -- originally done in 1922 by Arthur Milne, but still used by climate researchers today -- ignored boundary conditions by assuming an "infinitely thick" atmosphere. Similar assumptions are common when solving differential equations; they simplify the calculations and often result in a result that still very closely matches reality. But not always.

No-one wants to broadcast Wilders' film
H/T DutchNews.nl
Thursday 06 March 2008
No Dutch public or commercial television station is willing to broadcast MP Geert Wilder’s anti-Koran film, the Volkskrant reports on Thursday.
The paper says Wilders insists the entire 10 to 15-minute feature be screened, a condition no broadcaster is willing to meet.
‘We would not do that with a film produced by the Christian Democrats or the Liberals and also not for [Geert Wilder’s party] PVV,’ Herman van Gelderen, head of NRCV programme Netwerk said. ‘We are also extremely cautious about encouraging hatred and discrimination.’
Nova editor Carel Kuyl told the paper that Wilders was willing to allow a preview of his film on the condition programme chiefs agreed to broadcast it anyway. That is ‘bizarre’, Kuyl was quoted as saying.
Wilders will now launch his film, titled Fitna, on the internet later this month. The Volkskrant reports that the press centre in The Hague, Nieuwspoort, has agreed to the presentation of Wilders' film on March 28, pending security arrangements.
Meanwhile, the AD reports that the Dutch anti-terrorism coordinator has raised the terror alarm level from ‘limited’ to ‘substantial’. Both Wilders’ film and the extension of the Dutch military mission in Afghanistan influenced the decision, the paper says.

No-one wants to broadcast Wilders' film
As has become typical in modern Europe, the dutch media are cowering out of fear of violent reprisals from the "Religion of Peace". No TV network, government or independent, has the nerve to broadcast Geert Wilders 15 min film about the Quran. The Liberal cowards are trembling, at the thought of someone showing what islam is really like to the general public, and are doing whatever they can to stymie the movie. Two anti-Fitna(Wilders) movies have already been broadcast while no one has even seen a single frame of Fitna or even really knows what it contains. Talk about putting the horse before the cart! But then again, Islamic paranoia knows no bounds when it involves criticism of their violent death cult.
