What can you say other then Winston Churchill must be turning over in his grave and Maggie Thatcher must not be pleased (although Clown Prince Charlie sure must agree).  The dhimmification of the United Kingdom is moving forward thanks to the cowardice of the ruling classes over there. In the 1970’s , 80’s and 90’s the British foolishly allowed into their country people who refused to assimilate and have a deep and abiding hatred for their new found refuge. The end result was the 7/7/2005 bombings in London as well as the attempt to bomb Glasgow Airport  on 6/30/2007. A friend of mine in London was approached by some obnoxious lefty woman who wanted her to sign a petition to boycott Israeli products and she said right back to her “Funny I did not realize that it was Israelis who killed 52 people on the London transportation system in 2005″. The lefty woman stood open mouthed unable to respond.

A Christian teacher yesterday claimed he was forced out of his job after complaining that Muslim pupils as young as eight hailed the September 11 hijackers as heroes.

Nicholas Kafouris, 52, is suing his former school for racial discrimination.

He told a tribunal that he had to leave his £30,000-a-year post because he would not tolerate the ‘racist’ and ‘anti-Semitic’ behaviour of Year 4 pupils.

The predominantly Muslim youngsters openly praised Islamic extremists in class and described the September 11 terrorists as ‘heroes and martyrs’.

One pupil said: ‘Don’t touch me, you’re a Christian’ when he brushed against him.

Others said: ‘We want to be Islamic bombers when we grow up’, and ‘The Christians and Jews are our enemies – you too because you’re a Christian’.

———————————————

The teacher claims racial discrimination by the school, its headmistress and her assistant head after they failed to take action about the comments made by pupils to him.

He said there was a change in attitude of the pupils after the atrocities of September 11, 2001. They told him: ‘We hate the Christians’ and ‘We hate the Jews’, despite his attempts to stop them.

———————————————

In a statement submitted to the Central London Employment Tribunal he said: ‘Miss Hankey proceeded to excuse and justify the pupil’s behaviour, conduct and remarks to me as if I had no right to be offended by the child’s remarks and conduct.

‘Amongst Miss Hankey’s justifications for the child’s remarks, she said, “If the child was older, say 15, I might take it more seriously. He’s only nine – he’s only doing it to wind you up”.’

He added: ‘I felt the head’s behaviour and conduct towards me amounted to direct religious discrimination. I was intimidated in the way she spoke to me which indicated “Don’t come back with such issues again”.’

Passengers left stunned after Muslim bus driver pulls over and begins praying in the aisle

A Muslim bus driver stunned passengers by pulling over mid-route and beginning to pray in the aisle.

The driver stopped the bus without warning before removing his shoes and, using a fluorescent jacket as a prayer mat, beginning to chant in Arabic.

Passengers said they feared the driver could be preparing for a terror attack.

No one was able to get on or off the vehicle during the five-minute prayer session.

Passenger Gayle Griffiths complained to Transport for London about the bizarre incident on the No.24 bus in Gospel Oak, north London, this week.

Mother-of-one Miss Griffiths, 33, of Camden, north-west London, had boarded the bus a few minutes earlier on her way home from work.

She says that she even feared at the time that the driver might be a fanatic planning to blow up the bus.

    They create greater and greater discord and problems as their numbers grow because they do NOT assimilate. They are Not in the western world to be part of it. They are here to take it over and pervert it to the backward ways of their hideous screed. It will just get worse until civilized people say ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. The longer we wait the more difficult it gets. Mostly for them because the tipping point will occur before they out number us and the repercussions will be devastating.

    The other part of this story that is “unsaid”…

    Did any other teachers hear this same thing but said nothing because:

    1) Fear of losing job
    2) Multiculturalism
    3) Agreed with the students
    4) All of the above…

    This headline (given by teh MSM) is misleading. From the actual comments by the “youths”, it seems that more than mearly “praising 9/11 hijackers” was afoot.

    One pupil said: ‘Don’t touch me, you’re a Christian’ when he brushed against him.

    Others said: ‘We want to be Islamic bombers when we grow up’, and ‘The Christians and Jews are our enemies – you too because you’re a Christian’

    I get a sense that a highly liberal U.K., might have had a different response if the headline were instead “Teacher Forced Out After Standing Up Against Religious, and Racial Discrimination”.

    Absolutely. I have had muslims working for me and have gone to their weddings. The things the little kids would say would make your hair stand on end. It’s only the little kids that have not learned not to say those things in front of non-muslims that are honest. The rest have learned to hold their tongues, but they feel the same way. It’s going on here in all their schools. Be scared be very scared.

    @ NoThreat2U:

    If you are looking for a handgun, I tend to recommend revolvers to people who aren’t going to take the time or have the inclination to become really fluent (for want of a better word) with their weapon. A revolver is harder to reload, true, but it is kiss simple in operation. You aren’t going to go into combat with it, particularly, but that is true of any handgun. There’s a reason revolvers are still in production 150 years after their introduction (with changes and improvements, of course :-) ). They work pretty much every time you pull the trigger, and they don’t jam.

    @ NoThreat2U:

    Ok, I’m back for this conversation again. First of all, what you guys are wishing for cannot constitutionally happen in the U.S., and on a practical matter (assuming the constitution was ignored) won’t be happening-especially after Japanese internment.

    Your conclusions (that you cannot be both Muslim and loyal) are also false. Yes, I know what the Koran states, but that doesn’t mean that every single Muslim follows the Koran 100% any more than any Jew or Christian does their book. (all apologies to Jews and Christians for comparing the stupid Koran with the Torah & Bible).

    Although the majority (and especially the vocal majority(?)) are a problem which surely needs to be quickly, aggressively, and immediately attended to, that does not mean that all of American Muslims should be swept up in it. Even if there are only 10 “innocent” American Muslims, they have the right to not be thrown in with the Islamists.

    Lastly, what seems to be suggested here (as I have pointed out numerous times before) is draconian and unnecessary to achieve the result many of us actually want (a safe, and secure World)

    Of course, even if that happens, there’s nothing guaranteeing that the states will actually destroy the data they’ve already collected.

    Remember what happened with the records from the NICS system? That information was required to be destroyed within 72 hours, as I recall. Then it came out that they made daily backup tapes of the system, which they didn’t destroy.

    Or look at what happened with all the guns the city of New Orleans confiscated during Katrina, most of which are still rusting in shipping containers. This after they were ordered to return them to their owners several years ago.

    It’s not paranoia if they are out to get you :mrgreen:

    Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms.

    The truth is that I am not an expert on this issue, but if I had to throw out a huge guess….the Jewish ability to live in peace with secular society is NOT because of anything having to do with Christian dogma (ie: “render unto Ceasar”). Most if it actually probably has to do with not having a Temple. But I am just guessing.

    Not being Jewish myself, I have no idea what having a Temple would mean. I use the render unto Caeser thing in broad terms…not meant as a Christian thing. Maybe the Jews can live in non-Jewish or secular society because they are just fine with being who they are and living in peace. They are not trying to turn everyone and everything Jewish?

    Well when the Temple was destroyed and the Jewish People cast into the Diaspera, we had to learn how to cope or we would have ceased to exist as a people. Learning to live in “foreign” societies was one such survival tactic. As was the creation of the Synogogue which was a spiritual center completely seperate from THE TEMPLE.

    That’s one difference between Islam and Judaism that probably has quite a bit to do with their acceptance in other societies. Judaism is a non-proseletyzing faith, while Muslims believe that the’re required to do whatever it takes to bring the world under Islam.


  81. 82 | February 9, 2010 2:00 pm

    @ NoThreat2U:

    Actually, maybe you just hit on the true difference. Judaism is an “internal” religion. We are trying to change ourselves, and by result the world, instead of directly trying to change the world.

    Islam is quite the opposite, they leave no choice up to their personal lives, and then overtly have a duty to change the entire world directly, and by force if necessary.

    I’m not sure this means that all of Islam needs to be defeated still, but it might explain the difference situations between Jewish existence in the World and Islams.

    Count me as a Jew who doesn’t think we need to demonize Islam, as history and present reality do that for them.

    I judge them not on their history, or as a group, but on their individual actions. Yes, I will use broad generalizations to help form my opinion, but in the end it comes down to the individual. On both fronts, most Muslims today are greatly failing. Despite what that “history major” claims, finding embarrassing history of Christians, or Jews (Jews? Really!?

    I think that both the Jewish and the Christian ability to live as good citizens under the rule of non-Jews or non-Christians is based in large part on experience.

    Christians spent their doctrinally formative period under the (usually hostile) pagan Roman Empire. Jews, ofcourse, had plenty of experience living under Gentile empires, even before the destruction of the last Temple.

    Iran Moving to Silence Dissent With Arrests, Analysts Say

    In recent weeks, Iranian security officials have unleashed a wave of arrests across the country in an effort to neutralize the political opposition, silence critical voices and head off widespread protests when the nation marks the anniversary of the revolution on Thursday, Iran analysts inside and outside the country said.

    Though the government has refrained from arresting the principal leaders of the opposition, the category of people it has pursued has grown broader over time. While a number of well-known reformists were detained shortly after the contested presidential election in June, the ranks of those imprisoned now include artists, photographers, children’s rights advocates, women’s rights activists, students and scores of journalists. Iran now has more journalists in prison than any other country in the world, with at least 65 in custody, according to Reporters Without Borders.

    Reports have filtered out from across Iran of people being roused from their beds during midnight raids and disappearing into the penal system without an official word to family and friends, and of overcrowded jails and long stays in solitary confinement, according to human rights groups inside and outside Iran.

    re: #86 SanFranciscoZionist

    There’s a lot of revisionist history going around, as people paint Muslim history in darker and more lurid colors, and clean up the West’s record in regard to Jews and Muslims and theocracy.

    I get irritable. I was a history major, once upon a time.

    I regret I only have one upding for this. Count me as another Jew who is not willing to demonize Islam.

    I’m sure the irony is lost on this poster that the only reason she can say something s o stupid is that she lives in the U.S. where she is safe. If she was living in most muzz countries, she would be suffering terrible under these cruel barbarians. I have a Jewish friend from Iran. Very horrible stories of abuse to his family.

    And therein lies a whole other problem. Then we would see infighting amongst the moes as to who is a real muslim and who is not. If you follow our constitution you are not a real muslim. muslims do not have to follow man made laws…only the laws of allah. If you follow American law…again, you are not a real muslim. As long as their “faith” is intertwined with their civil lives, they cannot fit in here. Period.@ NoThreat2U:

    It strikes me that if this is the case, then there would be no “true muslims” anywhere. Everywhere and anywhere on the planet,including Muslims country’s are laws made by man, enforced by man and followed by citizens. Muslim or otherwise.

    I am not a fan in the ROP. I believe like Wrath that some of the things being suggested here are draconian and counterproductive. I had a young Corporal in the 5th Marines with me who was killed wearing the Uniform of his country. he was a Muslim of Turkish heritage and a fine young man. I still miss him.

    Experts: Sanctions unlikely
    Nuclear experts told Ynet Tuesday evening that it was not likely Western powers would succeed in imposing the sanctions extolled by Obama, in light of China’s known stance.

    Ephraim Asculai, a senior researcher at Tel Aviv University’s Institute for National Security Studies (INSS), said Iran was well on its way to achieving nuclear prowess.

    “From the moment they have enriched uranium to 20-percent purity, most of the work in achieving a military level of enrichment has been completed, and the distance left is not significant,” he said.

    “However it may very well be a method of defiance aimed at pressuring the West,” Asculai added. “It is a very serious step, and should have been prevented long ago.”

    Emily Landau, also a senior researcher at the INSS, agrees China would make it nearly impossible to impose sanctions through the UN. However she also believes the West will have trouble imposing private sanctions on Iran.

    “The option of sanctions outside the Security Council exists, but they keep saying ’soon’ and we have not yet seen any steps taken,” she told Ynet.

    Landau added that the US would not likely impose sanctions either. “President Obama has decided he will only act within a multi-sided framework. He has reservations about imposing sanctions privately, and if he doesn’t do so soon, they will not be effective in any case,” she concluded.

    And that’s the ballgame folks. Gee I really wish President Bush had acted.

    “Teenage pregnancies, binge drinking, that is what is associated with British culture. Islam is the dominant religion in the United Kingdom. If you don’t like it, go live somewhere else.

    “Alcohol, pornography, anti-social behaviour, sexual deviancy; these are the things in Britain that need to be banned.”

    A second email, entitled “You will be banned under Islamic rule” said: “Islam is the dominant religion in the UK. And the world. May Allah throw your mocking back on your soul.”

    The only way Israel should consider giving the Golan back to Syria is if they make it into some sort of DMZ, with an international observer force like they have in the Sinai.

    Otherwise, the Syrians will just use it as an artillery firing position again.

    Well not exactly. Although I do NOT trust the Syrians and would not want to give back the Golan to them, they do tend to keep to any agreement they sign with Israel and it is doubtful they would allow the kind of indiscriminate rocket fire from the Golan into Northern Israel as is common from Gaza.

    Syria is just making the claim because they see that Israed has consistantly been able to be blackmailed into giving up land for “peace”. They just want their chunk of the pie.

    Real peace is of course something. That they believe arabs will ever really agree to REAL peace, yes, that’s the delusion. Do they really think arabs would stop asking for more once they gave in to the unreasonable arab demands? Seems arab’s have a history of never being happy to what they get, or ever offering real peace.

    And when have they ever allowed indescriminate fire from areas they control on the Golan since after 1967?
    Excused me but they take their orders from Iran. They are the ones who kidnapped that soldier in Israel. They are the ones who murdered Hirari in Lebannon. They are the ones who installed hezballah in Lebannon. To think they are benign is naive.
    My comment was that the Golan is not analogous to Gaza. I stand by that statement.

    And I stand by my statement that no muzzie can be trusted. It’s in their book.

    @ phoenixgirl:

    you know…….i get that they need to pray but perhaps being a bus driver or train engineer or pilot is not a good career choice since you need to be on time for things….and the 5 a day mandatory prayer time will throw you off schedule

    Muslims are allowed to adjust their prayer times if they interfere with work.

    This is just a Muslim doing stuff to irritate infidels.

    I would take a bullet for any Israeli! What you are asking for is for them to die.
    No I am not. I am asking what all my Israeli friends and Family are asking for- Hope for a better life for their kids. And neither they nor I am nieve. We know the score and absolute rejectionism of any peace feelers under any circumstance is a prescriptoin for endless war.

    It’s actually set out in the agreement that established the mission, way back when.

    Nothing says it would have to be American troops, either. The Brits could do it, or the Canadians…South Africa…Australia…Germany…

    All it requires is establishing robust rules as part of the agreement, and troops who are willing to enforce them.

They attacked Israel and all the sudden, they need and want back the territory that they not only lost after they started a war, but what happened to the peace agreement they made before?

    Only because we’ve pretty much made ourselves the de facto third party involved in any Arab-Israeli peace negotiations.

    The agreements not to allow third parties to launch attacks from Syria proper into Israel. The agreements not to fire into either Israel or Israel controlled Golan from Syria Proper. The agreement on troop concentrations in Syria adjacent to the Golan Heights. Those kind of agreements

    I think your misinformed about alot of things. First of all Hezbolah does not control Syria. It is more like Syria has considerable influence over Hezbolah.

    Dude, it gets even worse. The lead article in the Daily Mail today has exposed that the Labour govt back in 2000 were acting on a secret agenda to double immigration in order to create a ‘multicultural’ society, among other things –and gain a substantial voting bloc of immigrants who would keep their party in power. A bunch of censored (because of the fear of public reaction) documents have just been uncovered through the Freedom of Information act that are truly shocking. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1249797/Labour-threw-open-doors-mass-migration-secret-plot-make-multicultural-UK.html

    Since this is a dead thread I will still offer one last opinion. If Syria was really interested in “peace” what ever that means to them, they would not even be making demands. They would be minding their own business regarding Israel, understanding that that region is necessary for Israel’s security.
