Sharia Creep: University Of Western Ontario Offered $2 Million To Establish Islamic Studies Program

05/13/2011 3 comments

Revelation 17:1-2,5-6a, “Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and talked with me, saying to me, ‘Come, I will show you the judgment of the great harlot who sits on many waters, with whom the kings of the earth committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth were made drunk with the wine of her fornication.’ … And on her forehead a name [was] written: MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. I saw the woman, drunk with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus…”

By Barbara Kay – “For various reasons, some good, many Western universities are keen to establish Islamic Studies programs. And for various other reasons, the same is true of Islamist organizations -which tend toward a fundamentalist interpretation of Islam. To this end, with a professed goal of fostering ‘understanding’ of Islam, the latter offer hefty financial endowments to universities.

Some critics worry that such a scenario may be in progress at Huron University College, an affiliate of University of Western Ontario (UWO). Huron offers post-baccalaureate and professional degree programs in theology. The College recently accepted a $2-million endowment for a new Chair in Islamic Studies within the College’s historically Anglican Faculty of Theology. About half the money is to come via fundraising facilitated by the Muslim Association of Canada (MAC), and the other, matching half from the Virginia-based International Institute of Islamic Thought (IIIT). A cofounder of the latter group was listed as an unindicted co-conspirator in the 2007-2008 trial of Sami al-Arian, an Islamist academic linked to jihadism.” Read more.

Saudi Arabia’s Export of Radical Islam – “Over the last week [early January 2007], several items in the world news have highlighted the problem of Saudi Arabia, a supposed ally in the War on Terror, funding mosques which promote the same extremism and calls for jihad which create terror. There is a certain hypocrisy about the Saudis exporting any form of Islam abroad, as the undemocratic kingdom prohibits any symbols of other faiths from being imported. Crucifixes, Bibles are forbidden. Guest workers proliferate in the kingdom, but if any attempt to hold Christian prayer and worship, they are jailed.” Read more.

Saudis Funding Islamist Centers Of Hate – “… CAIR was co-founded by Omar Ahmad and Nihad Awad, who were members of the Islamic Association for Palestine. Omar Ahmad has famously said: ‘Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any other faiths, but to become dominant. The Koran, the Muslim book of scripture, should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth.'” Read more.

Mosques Preaching Hatred Against ‘Kaffir’ Jews and Christians – “Channel Four sent an undercover reporter to the Green Lane mosque in Birmingham, where he filmed secretly for four months. This mosque is the headquarters of the Markazi Jamiat Ahl-e-Hadith. The preachers at this mosque were shown inciting hate against ‘unbelievers’, called disparagingly ‘Kuffaar’ or ‘kaffir’.” Read more.

By Sami Aboudi – “CAIRO (Reuters) – Thousands of Egyptians took to the streets on Friday to push their military rulers to do more to help Palestinians following the overthrow of the country’s president Hosni Mubarak.

Many Egyptians felt Mubarak, a U.S. ally, was too soft on Israel and want their new government to take a much stronger pro-Palestinian stand.

The gatherings in Cairo, Alexandria and El-Arish come amidst preparations by activists to organize a march to the Gaza Strip on Sunday, May 15 — which Palestinians mark as the anniversary of their 1948 displacement following the establishment of Israel.”  Read more.

Jordanians protest for Palestinian right of return, call for end of peace treaty with Israel – “AMMAN, Jordan (AP) — Heeding a call from Palestinian Facebook organizers, several hundred Jordanians took to the streets of the capital Friday demanding a sovereign Palestinian state and that refugees be given the right to return home. Palestinian youth groups called for protests in the West Bank and nearby Arab countries to mark the anniversary of the May 15, 1948, creation of the Jewish state.” Read more.

Palestinians: Prepare for 3rd intifada – “The Palestinians are preparing for ‘Nakba Day’ – text messages were sent to tens of thousands of cellular subscribers in the West Bank and east Jerusalem, calling them to take part in the events marking the Palestinian day of mourning over Israel’s inception and to ignite a third Intifada… According to the text messages, some of the activities planned for Friday are still kept secret, in order to prevent Israel from thwarting them.” Read more.

Osama Bin Laden Revenge Blasts Kill 80 in Pakistan, ‘There Will Be More’

05/13/2011 1 comment

“DEADLY suicide bomb attacks in north-west Pakistan avenging the death of Osama Bin Laden have killed 80 people. The twin blasts ripped apart the paramilitary force’s training centre for the Frontier Constabulary in Shabqadar, Charsadda district. Police say both blasts were caused by suicide attacks after early suspicions that one of the bombs was planted. It was the first major militant attack in Pakistan since bin Laden’s death in a May 2 US raid and one of the deadliest to hit the country ever. Pakistani Taliban confirmed they had carried out the horror attack to avenge the death of Osama Bin Laden earlier this month. A Taliban spokesman said: ‘We have done this to avenge the Abbottabad incident.’ Speaking on the phone Ahsanullah Ahsan said: ‘It’s the first revenge for the martyrdom of … bin Laden. There will be more. ‘Wait for bigger attacks in Pakistan and Afghanistan.'”  Read more.

‘Liberated’ by American Forces, a New and Improved Afghanistan Teaches Children How to Hate the West

05/12/2011 Leave a comment

By Stan Grant, CNN – “Kabul, Afghanistan (CNN) — The Muslim call to prayer echoes through a poor neighborhood, stirring the faithful. Men shuffle into a tiny mud-and-straw-brick mosque nestled among houses down a dirt lane.

And they bring their sons, clutching tattered copies of the Quran, for lessons in hate at a religious school in Kabul, Afghanistan’s capital…

The message of faith and God is mixed with a hatred of anything outside their own world. The boys have been raised on a steady diet of anti-western propaganda. They are taught to fear outsiders and reject anything but the strict teachings of Islam…

Do you like the United States I ask? There is a resounding ‘No!’

Do you want them to leave? ‘Yes!’ they yell. ‘We want our country to be peaceful. They are the devil.'”  Read more.

Pakistan: Christian Student Nurse Forced to Convert to Islam and Marry Muslim Man

05/12/2011 Leave a comment

By Jibran Khan – “Lahore (AsiaNews) – A 24-year Christian woman from southern Punjab was abducted by a Muslim man who, after forcing her to convert to Islam, also forced her to marry him. Although her family filed a formal report of kidnapping, the police did not act immediately, either to stop the abduction or to arrest the culprits. Likewise, her family has gone to court to get her released to no avail; the young student nurse remains in fact in the hands of her kidnappers. This, according to a local priest, is part of an ‘alarming’ trend in anti-Christian violence. He is, to put it mildly, ‘disappointed by the behaviour of local authorities’. A human rights activist confirms that the region of Pakistan where the woman lives is a ‘safe haven for extremists’ who perpetrate abuses and kidnappings ‘with total impunity’.”  Read more.

Canada Condemns Egyptian Anti-Christian Violence, Obama Remains Silent

05/12/2011 Leave a comment

By KEITH KOFFLER – “Even as he renews his outreach to Muslims, President Obama should seek to stem the growing tide of violence against Coptic Christians in Egypt by condemning last weekend’s attacks that left a dozen people dead and scores injured.

The attacks, about which Obama has been silent, also resulted in the burning of Coptic Orthodox churches and the destruction of Christian homes and businesses.

The president needs to say more to stem religious violence that creates opportunities for Islamic extremists who want to seize power in Egypt, our most important Arab ally.

Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper Monday ‘strongly’ condemned the violence, saying, ‘We stand behind the Coptic Christian community and their right to practice their faith in safety and security, free of persecution.’

The Wall Street Journal reported yesterday that Obama is preparing to try to reengage Muslims with a speech, possibly next week, that will make the case that Muslims should ‘reject Islamic militancy in the wake of Osama bin Laden’s death and embrace a new era of relations with the U.S.'”  Read more.

‘There Is An End-Game Afoot for Man’s Freedom and the Western Way of Life … The End will Begin in Israel’

Glenn Beck: “It is great to be back in America.  I don’t know if you have heard, but I have spent the last couple of days in Israel where I am working on something there that I think will be very big, because there are very big life-changing things — world-changing events — on the horizon… When the media elite celebrated the glorious uprisings in Tunisia and Egypt, I was in the back row raising my hand saying, ‘Um, I don’t think this is gonna be so glorious, especially for America and Israel… Well, how’s that working out so far?  I can tell you tonight that there is an end-game afoot for man’s freedom and the Western way of life, and I believe the end will begin in Israel.  And if you don’t pay attention, it will all make perfect sense when the world turns the heat on Israel… Israel is the beginning of what could be the end for man’s freedom, and we must pay attention and learn from history …”

“The French Channel + attempts to do a story on a Koranic school and get a course in Islam right at the gates. This report was forbidden to air in order not to ‘hurt’ the Muslims feelings…. The three journalists from the Canal + appeared at a Koranic school at the Chateau de Ville-hand In Grisy-Suisnes run by the tablighi movement.” (Warning: language may be offensive to some)

Two Muslim Men Arrested Over Alleged Synagogue Plot in New York

05/12/2011 Leave a comment

“Two Americans have been arrested by New York City police for allegedly plotting to attack a synagogue in the New York area, Fox News has learned.

One source described the case as the latest example of ‘homegrown’ radicalization. The two men were identified as Mohammad Mamdouh, of Moroccan descent, and Ahmed Serhani, of Algerian descent.

Serhani allegedly made a general statement about wanting to attack a synagogue –- though no specific synagogue was mentioned, according to initial information obtained by Fox News. With a history of drug dealing, Serhani was hoping to make enough money to purchase weapons and possibly explosives for the attack, one source said.”  Read more.

Salafi Clerics in Egypt Express Hatred Toward Christians on TV; Military-Salafi Relations in Egypt Raise Questions

05/12/2011 Leave a comment

By Kristen Chick – “The deadly clashes between Muslims and Christians in Cairo this weekend have heightened already growing concern about the role of fundamentalist Muslims known as Salafis in post-revolution Egypt…

‘They don’t want Christians in Egypt. They want an Islamic state,’ said a woman who gave her name as Mona at a Christian protest Monday against the weekend violence…

They practice what they believe to be the purest form of Islam, and are primarily concerned with living their lives according to such teaching, and not with politics, says Diaa Rashwan, an expert on Islamist groups at the Al Ahram Center for Political and Strategic Studies. He describes Egyptian Salafis as ‘in this middle place between jihadists like Osama bin Laden and political Islamists like the Muslim Brotherhood.’

… Al Qaeda’s members follow a form of Salafism, but Egyptian Salafi clerics say that unlike the global terrorist group they have renounced violence. Yet Salafi clerics on television have railed hatefully against Christianity, and in March a Christian man in Qena said Salafists cut off his ear after accusing him of renting an apartment to a prostitute.”  Read more.

Military-Salafi relations in Egypt raise questions – “As sectarian violence blamed on hard-line Salafi Muslims continues to rise, many are voicing sharp criticism of the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF) and its transitional cabinet, accusing them of failing to apply the law so far as radicals are concerned.” Read more.

Islamic Extremists Target Christian Village in Nigeria, Pastor’s Wife and Children Among Those Killed

05/11/2011 Leave a comment

“KURUM, Nigeria, May 10 (CDN) — As she lay on the ground after being shot and then slashed with a machete, Dune James Rike looked into her husband’s tear-filled eyes and asked, ‘Is this the end between us, so we shall not be together again?’

Pastor James Musa Rike told Compass he held the hands of his dying, 35-year-old wife and told her, ‘Hold on to your faith in Jesus, and we shall meet and never part again.’

Muslim extremists who attacked Kurum village, in the Bogoro local government area of Nigeria’s Bauchi state, had already killed two of the couple’s children in a rampage that began Wednesday (May 4) at midnight. Rike, pastor of a Church of Christ in Nigeria (COCIN) congregation in Kurum, next heard the cries of his 13-year-old daughter, Sum James Rike, a few yards away.”  Read more.

Egypt: Situation Deteriorating Badly and Rapidly, Muslim Leaders Want Islamic State

05/11/2011 Leave a comment

“In the wake of bloody Muslim attacks on Egyptian Christians, the New York Times informs us:

‘By lifting the heavy hand of the Mubarak police state, the revolution unleashed long-suppressed sectarian animosities that have burst out with increasing ferocity….’

No kidding! Did you think a single Egyptian Christian didn’t know this in February? Why didn’t the media report or the U.S. government understand that this was absolutely inevitable and predictable? But the only mentions of Christians were to claim that they were really enthusiastic about the revolution.

The remaining Christians in most of the Arabic-speaking world may be on the edge of flight or extinction. All of the Christians have left the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip which is, in effect, an Islamist republic. They are leaving the West Bank. Half have departed from an increasingly Islamist-oriented Iraq where they are under terrorist attack. Within a few years they might all be gone.”  Read more.

Muslim leaders: We want an Islamic state – “‘God’s words must rule and Islam must be in the hearts of the citizens,’ said Jama’a al-Islamiya spokesman Osama Hafez. ‘The Islamic movements are uniting, despite their different ideologies, because they feel Islam is threatened,’ said Muslim Brotherhood lawyer Montasser al-Zayat.”  Read more.
