The information he uncovered is a shocker.</em></p>
<blockquote><p>&#8230;While some of the Neo-Communists (“Neo-Coms“) are purposely depriving themselves of shelter and (in the case of yesterday’s arrests) freedom out of sheer ideology, at least one appears to be getting paid—handsomely—to be part of the Marxist madness&#8230;</p></blockquote>

<blockquote><p>&#8230;Culturally speaking, however, I was in a different world. From the appearance of the streets in some of the areas I visited, I might as well have been in Karachi or Lagos. Cultural enrichment was everywhere — there were hijabed women on virtually every street, from Tower Hamlets to Bloomsbury, from Docklands to Luton.</p>
<p>East London and Luton were the most intensively Islamic, of course, and Luton is where I started my tour of the London area. As soon as I recovered from jet lag, I joined a group that went to visit English Defence League leader Tommy Robinson on his home turf&#8230;</p></blockquote>

<blockquote><p><center><img src="http://1389blog.com/pix/Pedophiles_42.jpg" alt="The cycle of pedophilia" title="The cycle of pedophilia" border="0" /></center></p>
<p><em>August 21, 2011</em><br />
By <a href="http://www.maggiesnotebook.com/author/maggiesnotebook/">Maggie</a></p>
<p>I’m struggling to believe what my eyes are reading. A conference held in Baltimore on August 17th includes exchanging ideas WITH “minor-attracted persons who have an interest in critical issues surrounding the entry for pedophilia in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) of Mental Health Disorders. The input of “minor-attracted persons” is important to this conference where several major universities are represented.<br />
[…]<br />
Hebephilias are those who have a sexual preference for children in the early years of puberty, ages 10-14. Ephebophilias prefer children in the later years of adolescence. Pedophiles prefer prepubescent children. At this conference, there will be an effort to establish whether or not hebephilia is a mental disorder. Put them all together and this group is known as paraphilias.</p>
<blockquote><p>[<a href="http://b4uact.org/science/symp/2011/index.htm">B4U-ACT website</a>]…it has an enormous impact on the beliefs and practices of mental health professionals, the criminal justice system, the media, and the public. It also has a profound effect on adults and teenagers who are emotionally and sexually attracted to children or adolescents, on the availability of mental health services for them, and on relevant research.</p></blockquote>
<p>Assuming these three differing preferences are considered a mental disorder, can we correctly assume claiming that disorder in court will send a person to a hospital rather than a prison after they have ruined the life of a child?</p>
<p><a href="http://b4uact.org/science/symp/2011/program.htm">On the schedule</a> is Dr. John Z. Sadler: <a href="http://b4uact.org/science/symp/2011/speaker/Sadler_abstract.pdf">Decriminalizing Mental Disorder Concepts – Pedophilia as an Example.</a> Here is one way the conference will consider the problem of paraphilias (my emphasis):</p>
<blockquote><p>(2) If Pedophilia and related categories are to be preserved as legitimate, <strong>nonmorally value-laden disorders</strong>, then they require a preponderance of nonmorally-value-laden diagnostic descriptors in their diagnostic criteria.</p></blockquote>
<p><a href="http://www.lifesitenews.com/academic-conference-seeks-to-normalize-pedophilia.html">LifeNews offers this information about B4U-ACT (my emphasis):</a></p>
<blockquote><p>B4U-ACT, a group of pro-pedophile activists and mental health professionals, is behind the August 17 conference, which will include panelists from Harvard University, the Johns Hopkins University, the University of Louisville, and the University of Illinois.</p>
<p><strong>On their website B4U-ACT classifies pedophilia as simply another sexual orientation and decries the “stigma” attached to pedophilia, observing: “No one chooses to be emotionally and sexually attracted to children or adolescents. The cause is unknown; in fact, the development of attraction to adults is not understood.” The group says that it does not advocate treatment to change feelings of attraction to children or adolescents&#8230;</strong></p></blockquote>

<h3><a href="http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/hhs-children-are-sexual-beings-even-infa">HHS: Children Are ‘Sexual Beings’</a></h3>
<blockquote><p>Monday, August 22, 2011<br />
By <strong><a href="http://www.cnsnews.com/source/72762">Penny Starr</a></strong></p>
<p><strong>(CNSNews.com)</strong> – The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is offering advice to parents and teens about sex education, including assurances that teens may “experiment” with homosexuality as part of “exploring their own sexuality,” and that masturbation should be of concern only “if a child seems preoccupied with it to the exclusion of other activities.”</p>
<p>The information, located on a “Questions and Answers About Sex” link on the “<strong><a href="http://healthfinder.gov/prevention/ViewTopic.aspx?topicID=77&#038;cnt=1&#038;areaID=1&#038;TopicContentID=492">Quick Guide to Healthy Living</a></strong>” portion of the HHS Web site, also describes children and infants as “sexual beings.”<br />
[…]<br />
Peter Sprigg, senior fellow for policy studies at the conservative Family Research Council, said that the HHS Web site does include some positive information, such as statements about abstinence being the best way to avoid pregnancy or sexually transmitted diseases and the need for parents to teach their children sexual facts.</p>
<p>But some of the information has no place on a federal government Web site, he said.</p>
<p>“The idea that ‘children are human beings and therefore sexual beings’ is one of the most destructive myths of the sexual revolution,” Sprigg told CNSNews.com. “To a large extent, this myth may be traced to the ‘research’ conducted by Alfred Kinsey, including the infamous ‘Children of Table 34’ experiments, which involved the deliberate sexual abuse of children as young as 6 months old under ‘experimental’ conditions.”</p>
<p>“The fact that young children are aware that their bodies include genitalia hardly makes them ‘sexual beings,’ and it is improper (and potentially dangerous) to treat them as such before puberty,” he said.</p>

<h3><a href="http://newstime.co.nz/video-indonesia-halal-sex-tourism.html">From Newstime (NZ):</a></h3>
<blockquote><p>“<a href="http://www.france24.com/en/">France 24 TV</a> goes undercover in Indonesia to explore a bizarre trend in the country’s sex tourism industry. A growing number of Saudi Arabian men are temporarily marrying according to <a href="http://quran.al-islam.com/Page.aspx?pageid=221&#038;BookID=15&#038;SuraNum=4&#038;AyaNum=24">Quran Chapter 4 Verse 24 “… agree Mutually (to vary it), …”</a> <a href="http://newstime.co.nz/sex-in-islam.html">(Mu’ta marriage 4:24, temporary)</a> Indonesian prostitutes to have sex with so that they don’t technically engage in non-marital sex. Therefore, in their opinion, their sexual relations with a prostitute are religiously lawful.”</p></blockquote>
<h3><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikah_mut%E2%80%98ah">According to Wikipedia&#8230;</a></h3>
<blockquote><p><strong>Nikāḥ al-Mutʿah</strong> (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arabic_language">Arabic</a>: نكاح المتعة‎ &#8220;marriage for pleasure&#8221;), is an extremely controversial fixed-term <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marriage">marriage</a> system in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shi%27a_Islam">Shi&#8217;a Islam</a>, rejected in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunni_Islam">Sunni Islam</a>. The duration of this type of marriage is fixed at its inception and is then automatically dissolved upon completion of its term. The marriage is contractual and is subject to renewal. Financial payments may be made between the couple, usually with the male paying the female <em><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahr">mahr</a></em> or <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dowry">dower</a>.</p></blockquote>
<h3>It&#8217;s All About the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indonesian_rupiah">Rupiah</a> and the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iranian_rial">Rial</a>:</h3>
<p><span style="color:#ff0030; font-size:120%">Despite the fact that both Saudi Arabia and Indonesia are both Sunni Muslim countries, when there is money to be made from sex tourism, the supposedly Shi&#8217;ite-only practice of Mut&#8217;ah is considered halal nonetheless. Go figure.</span></p>

<blockquote><p>Holy Shiite! Pious pilgrimage just got more exciting at Imam Reza’s shrine in Iran, where for a reasonable fee (see price list below) a mullah can join any eager pilgrim in holy matrimony of “temporary marriage” with his choice of a lovely, fully hijabed, and properly veiled prostitute for a period between 5 hours to 10 days. Pedophiles welcome: girls as young as 12 years of age are standing by. Not to worry, the mullahs got them covered: all “temps” under 14 must show a written consent from their fathers or male guardians (no doubt on advice from the recently fired, now freelancing ACORN specialists).</p>

<p>Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, The Supreme Leader of Iran, the Shia Grand Ayatollah, 1979-89 said in his official statements:</p>
<p>&#8220;A man can quench his sexual lusts with a child as young as a baby. However, he should not penetrate. Sodomizing the baby is halal (allowed by sharia). If the man penetrates and damages the child, then he should be responsible for her subsistence all her life. This girl, however, does not count as one of his four permanent wives. The man will not be eligible to marry the girl&#8217;s sister. It is better for a girl to marry when her menstruation starts, and at her husband&#8217;s house rather than her father&#8217;s home. Any father marrying his daughter so young will have a permanent place in heaven.&#8221;</p>

<p>A beautiful Brazilian soap star has the lead role in her own daytime drama, which casts George Soros, the billionaire financier of lefty causes, as a heavy who not only broke her heart, but also reneged on a promise to give her an Upper East Side apartment worth $1.9 million.</p>
<p>The drama will be staged in Manhattan Supreme Court, where 28-year-old Adriana Ferreyr yesterday filed a blockbuster $50 million suit charging, among other things, that the frisky octogenarian slapped her around while they were in bed discussing his real-estate betrayal.</p>
<p>The sultry actress and the mogul, who&#8217;s worth some $14.5 billion, had dated for five years before he heartlessly dumped her a year ago, the lawsuit says.</p>
<p>But they briefly reconciled, and while spending a romantic night together, he whispered in her ear that he&#8217;d given the apartment to another woman.</p>
<p>&#8220;While still in bed, Soros slapped Ferreyr across the face and proceeded to put his hands around her neck in an attempt to choke her,&#8221; her lawsuit claims.</p>
<p>Soros, 80, then allegedly at tempted to strike her with a glass lamp, and though he narrowly missed, it smashed on the floor and she cut her foot, which required three stitches.</p>
<p>According to a police report, she called cops, but no charges were filed.</p>
<p>Soros &#8220;denies throwing the lamp and totally denies trying to choke her,&#8221; a friend of the billionaire&#8217;s told The Post.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><span style="color:#ff0030; font-size:120%">The recent death of Nazi Milivoj Asner in a Caritas nursing home in Austria <em>(see <strong><a href="http://1389blog.com/2011/06/22/another-one-bites-the-dust/">Another one bites the dust…</a></strong>)</em> inspired Julia Gorin to do some further research.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0030; font-size:120%">It turns out that it is no accident that Caritas sheltered this aged Nazi. Caritas has been corrupt from the get-go:</span></p>
<h3><a href="http://www.juliagorin.com/wordpress/?p=2668">WWII Nazi Dies in Austria, in the Care of Catholic Charity Caritas</a></h3>
<p><em>Posted by <strong><a href="http://1389blog.com/category/1389-blog/authors/julia-gorin/">Julia Gorin</a></strong></em></p>
<p>From Monday:<br />
<a href="http://austrianindependent.com/news/Politics/2011-06-20/8046/Anger_as_WWII_%27killer%27_dies_in_Austria" target="_blank">Anger as WWII &#8216;killer&#8217; dies in Austria</a></p>
<blockquote><p>Austria has been branded as a &#8220;paradise for Nazis&#8221; after it emerged that an alleged war criminal deceased in a care home in Carinthia.</p>
<p>A spokesman for a Caritas retirement centre in Klagenfurt confirmed newspaper reports claiming that Milivoj Asner passed away today (Mon). He said the Croat perished aged 98 in the institution last week.</p>
<p>Asner is suspected of being behind the deportation of hundreds of Serbs, Roma and members of the Jewish community in Croatia’s Ustasa movement during World War Two (WWII). Asner changed his name to Georg Aschner after fleeing to Austria when the Communists took over his homeland in 1945. He received the Austrian citizenship the next year.</p>
<p>Asner lived in Carinthian capital Klagenfurt to his death. Austrian prosecutors opened a case against him due to occurrences in WWII in 2004 before Croatia demanded his extradition one year later. However, Asner was spared a trial due to his mental condition.</p>
<p>Juridical decision-makers in Austria asked a German expert to examine the suspected war criminal in 2009 after they were accused of having acted biased as several expert opinions established by Austrian doctors suggested Asner was not fit for legal procedures.</p>
<p>The debate over how to handle the issue intensified in 2008 when British journalists claimed Asner – who allegedly suffered from dementia – must be strong enough to go to court after spotting him at a fan zone in Klagenfurt during the European Football Championship.</p>
<p>Now Efraim Zuroff, the director of the Simon Wiesenthal Center’s office in Jerusalem, Israel, has claimed Austria was a &#8220;paradise for Nazis.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;His decisive role in the killing of hundreds of Jewish people, Serbians and Roma in the Slavonian city of Prozega is evident,&#8221; the historian said today (Mon) after being informed that Asner has died.</p>
<p>Zuroff criticised juridical authorities in Austria for &#8220;assigning benevolent doctors&#8221; to judge Asner’s condition. The co-founder of &#8220;Operation: Last Chance&#8221; said their decisions helped the Croat-born ex-police chief to evade an extradition and a court case.</p>
<p>The historian – who has often been described as the world’s &#8220;Last Nazi Hunter&#8221; – called on all countries in the world to show &#8220;final urgent efforts&#8221; to bring WWII era criminals to justice. Asner was on number three of the Simon Wiesenthal Center’s list of the 10 most wanted WWII crime suspects. Zuroff stressed Asner’s spot will be occupied by someone else &#8220;soon,&#8221; explaining that &#8220;many people are in waiting.&#8221;</p>
<p>Austria – which became part of Adolf Hitler’s Third Reich in 1938 – has been widely criticised for allegedly failing to make a clean sweep considering residents’ involvements in wartime crimes in contrast to Germany and other countries. Many former army generals and diplomats suspected of supporting Nazi Germany’s genocide kept their high-ranking positions after 1945 or were reassigned by public institutions.</p></blockquote>
<p>Isn&#8217;t it charming? The old Nazi died in the care of a retirement home affiliated with the Catholic Caritas charity. </p>
<p>And Nazism STILL has nothing to do with the Catholic Church, right? Well, we already know that Caritas doesn&#8217;t care much for the Jewish State, and is involved in activism against it:</p>
<p><img src="http://1389blog.com/pix/caritasocc.jpg" alt="Caritas poster railing against so-called 'Israeli occupation'" /><br />
<em>Fence keeping out Jew-killers: No good.</em></p>
<p><a href="http://www.ngo-monitor.org/article/caritas" target="_blank">From NGO Monitor</a>: </p>
<blockquote><p>According to the Simon Weisenthal Center, The production and distribution of such political material may place Caritas in violation of its charitable tax status on donations made in North America, Western Europe and Australasia.&#8221;</p>
<p>The Simon Weisenthal Center also noted that the poster undoubtedly exacerbates Middle East-related antisemitism, justifies further attacks on Jewish targets under the sanctification cover of the Holy See and impugns Caritas&#8217; credibility as an effective relief and unbiased relief agency. </p></blockquote>
<p><a href="http://www.ngo-monitor.org/article.php?operation=print&#038;id=1041" target="_blank">And this</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>CESR coordinates research projects on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict from its New York City and Gaza regional offices with a variety of organizations, including LAW , Al-Mezan Center for Human Rights, B&#8217;Tselem, Palestinian Ministry of Education, UNRWA, Birzeit University, The Palestinian Centre for Human Rights, Defense of Children International/Palestine Section, as well as Caritas, Center on Housing Rights and Evictions, and PENGON. As past NGO Monitor reports have documented, many of these NGOs are active in promoting the Durban strategy of demonization against Israel.</p></blockquote>
<p><a href="http://www.ngo-monitor.org/editions/vol5no3/Nov2006_digest.html" target="_blank">And this</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>The &#8220;NGO Statement on International Protection&#8221;, drafted by &#8220;a wide range of NGOs&#8221; was presented at the Executive Committee in October. The NGO participants in the UNHCR Executive Committee session included Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, CARE International, CARITAS International, Oxfam International, BADIL and World Vision International, among others. The statement called on &#8220;all actors to redouble their efforts at addressing this [protection] gap for Palestinian refugees, beginning with their right of return in keeping with UN General Assembly Resolution 194, including the right to restitution and compensation.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>But let&#8217;s see what we can come up with in our Balkans file about Caritas. Why, <a href="http://www.srpska-mreza.com/library/facts/Dorfman.html" target="_blank">here&#8217;s something</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Feminists in the U.S. were treated to a propaganda blitz about rapes allegedly carried out by Serbs. It had an electrifying effect. In the end, the radical group “Madre,” which previously supported Central American women, launched an emotional campaign to save thousands of Bosnian Muslim women allegedly raped by Bosnian Serb soldiers. Gloria Steinem lent the story respectability in Ms. Magazine. The N.Y. Times wrote that 20,000 to 50,000 Bosnian women had been raped, despite the fact that there was no substantiation for such numbers &#8211; except, of course, from the Bosnian Muslim “Ministry of Information.” Despite doubts expressed by Helsinki Watch, Human Rights Watch and respected individuals such as Simone Weil, the president of the European Parliament, the American media relied on the Bosnian War Crimes Commission and Caritas, the Catholic charity connected to the Croatian government, for verification of these outrageous claims&#8230;</p></blockquote>
<p>&#8211; Alvin Dorfman and Heather Cottin, &#8220;U.S. Jews and the Balkan Situation,&#8221; <em>Jewish Currents</em>, April 1996</p>
<p>Caritas is also present in Kosovo, ministering to the minority Catholic Albanians there. That would seem reasonable, except when you consider that this ancient Orthodox-Serb land was marked for conquest by the Vatican from the beginning. Or if you consider this:</p>
<blockquote><p>Vatican’s charity Caritas smuggled weapons to KLA, incl. mortars stolen from NATO bases in Germany. The consignee was a parish priest in Italy. One of three drivers of the convoy arrested by Italian customs had links to BND. Before Kosovo “independence” declaration, pope Benedict stated that Vatican would heed the international community. While using extreme Albanians to break Serbian-Orthodox influence, as Berlin did, high-powered Catholic clergy declared, “a new phase” can begin “with the independence” of Kosovo.</p></blockquote>
<p>&#8211; Piotr Bein, &#8220;<a href="http://piotrbein.wordpress.com/2009/12/30/" target="_blank">Mass Deception on Mass Violence: The Case of Serbs</a>,&#8221; prepared for the International Comparative Genocide Research project of the Hiroshima City University, 2009 <span style="color:#ff0030;">[Worth reading; there is plenty of dirt about Vice President Joseph Biden at that link as well!]</span></p>
<p>A <a href="http://a-place-to-stand.blogspot.com/2007/02/yugoslavia-motivation_26.html" target="_blank">similar note from</a> UK blogger Neil Clark:</p>
<blockquote><p>The Vatican gave massive diplomatic support to anti-Yugoslav forces &#038; provided both money ($2 billion from the Knights of Malta to Tudjman) &#038; weapons (Caritas was caught smuggling mortars &#038; ground to air missiles allegedly stolen from NATO to the KLA). Their motivation was purely religious. Their ancient conflict with the Orthodox Church.</p></blockquote>
<p>And in less recent but searingly relevant history, we have this declassified U.S. Army index card filing from 1953:</p>
<blockquote><p>Pavelic, Ante<br />
War criminal, who is believed to be in Argentina or Italy. Former ustasha leader, who directed the Croatian nationalist movement; this movement has sponsored an &#8220;information collecting agency&#8221; for operations in Yugoslavia and Austria under cover of the various Caritas offices in Austria. </p></blockquote>
<p>&#8211; Unknown Document, U.S. Army, declassified, June 24, 1953</p>
<p>(Note: The introduction on the <a href="http://www.jasenovac-info.com/cd/biblioteka/pavelicpapers/pavelic/ap0035.html" target="_blank">page</a> where this document can be found online reads, &#8220;From the US Army File on Ante Pavelic: Another of the small, index card-sized files mixed among the papers of Pavelic&#8217;s dossier, this refers to a piece on Ustase subverting the Catholic refugee agency Caritas.&#8221; It is certainly possible that the charity was being &#8220;subverted,&#8221; but unfortunately it is just as possible that the misuse of the charity was done with the knowledge, collusion, or blind-eye-turning of its administrators. Much like all those Islamic &#8220;humanitarian organizations&#8221; that piled into Bosnia and Kosovo and were &#8220;subverted&#8221; by jihadists, right? H-ll, why limit it to Bosnia and Kosovo? One could say the same about virtually any Islamic charity operating today: jihadist fronts. Other fascinating documents from the immediate post-WWII era <a href="http://www.jasenovac-info.com/cd/biblioteka/pavelicpapers/pavelic/index.html" target="_blank">here</a>.)</p>
<p>Croatian Caritas was founded by Cardinal Stepinac himself, that great savior of a handful of Jews and Serbs who were trying to escape the Croatian genocide of Jews and Serbs which he oversaw, by a regime that he helped put in place.</p>
<p>The word &#8220;caritas,&#8221; of course, means love for all people, and here it is being used in context in an email from author <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Six-Million-Crucifixions-Christian-Teachings/dp/0984334645" target="_blank">Gabriel Wilensky</a>, responding to a comment left under my 2010 <a href="http://www.jpost.com/Features/InThespotlight/Article.aspx?id=169378" target="_blank">article</a> about the Vatican&#8217;s WWII role in genocide (the comment: &#8220;Can&#8217;t we just forgive and forget?&#8221;):</p>
<blockquote><p>Yes, That JPost comment is remarkable. What is perhaps little known and equally as remarkable is the tremendous and effective effort of the Catholic Church to get war criminals out of Europe and to have the sentences of the ones caught either commuted or reduced. It is quite revolting, actually, to know that clergymen pushed the Allies very hard &#8212; supposedly in the spirit of Christian caritas &#8212; to get these savages off the hook. Same argument: too much suffering, can’t we just move on? they argued&#8230;</p></blockquote>
<p>Catholic Caritas, then, makes little distinction between the killed and the killers, especially when the killers are promoting the &#8220;right&#8221; agenda.</p>
<p>And in the modern, NWO incarnation of Hitler&#8217;s vision, the word apparently plays a role as well:</p>
<blockquote><p>The Nobel Committee&#8217;s award to Obama has been viewed by many, on the left and right, as a surprise. But it makes perfect sense. The committee noted that Obama &#8220;has as President created a new climate in international politics. Multilateral diplomacy has regained a central position, with emphasis on the role that the United Nations and other international institutions can play.&#8221; All of this is true. Obama has built up the power of global institutions at the expense of the United States.</p>
<p>While the Vatican statement congratulating Obama was also seen by some as a surprise, it too makes sense. The Vatican expressed the hope that &#8220;this most important recognition will ultimately encourage such a difficult but fundamental commitment for the future of humanity, so that it might bring the expected results.&#8221;</p>
<p>The &#8220;expected results&#8221; are evident when one considers that Pope Benedict, the leader of 1.2 billion Catholics, had endorsed a &#8220;World Political Authority,&#8221; a form of world government, in his recent encyclical &#8220;Caritas in Veritate.&#8221; This world political authority, in the Vatican view, is supposed to &#8220;manage the economy,&#8221; bring about &#8220;timely disarmament,&#8221; and ensure &#8220;food, security and peace.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<h3>Who was <em>actually</em> raped in the Balkans? Does anyone <em>care?</em></h3>
<p><span style="color:#ff0030">The evidence shows that the actual victims of rape in the Balkans have been <em>Serbian</em> girls and women.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0030">How very inconvenient for those who have a vested interest in continuing to libel the Serbs, so as to have an excuse for continuing the persecution and killing of Serbs and the occupation and theft of Serbian lands.</span></p>

<p><strong style="COLOR: #ff0020"><em>Excerpts are presented here, interspersed with comments by 1389. Emphasis and hyperlinks are mine.</em></strong></p>
<h4><a href="http://www.mackenzieinstitute.com/2006/crime-australia.htm">The Rise of Middle Eastern Crime in Australia</a></h4>
<blockquote><p><strong>IT WAS ABOUT 1995 to 1996 that the emergence of Middle Eastern crime groups was first observed in New South Wales.</strong> Before then they had been largely known for individual acts of anti-social behaviour and loose family structures involved in heroin importation and supply as well as motor vehicle theft and conversion. The one crime that did appear organised before this period was insurance fraud, usually motor vehicle accidents and arson. Because these crimes were largely victimless, they were dealt with by insurance companies and police involvement was limited. But from these insurance scams, a generation of young criminals emerged to become engaged in more sophisticated crimes, such as extortion, armed robbery, organised narcotics importation and supply, gun running, organised factory and warehouse break-ins, car theft and conversion on a massive scale including the exporting of stolen luxury vehicles to Lebanon and other Middle Eastern countries.</p>
</blockquote>
<p><strong style="COLOR: #ff0020"><em>Notice that, whenever fraud, <a href="http://1389blog.com/category/vehicle-theft/">vehicle theft</a>, and other property crimes are not adequately addressed, the perpetrators become emboldened and move on to other, more serious offenses.</p>
<p>Tim Priest explains that the existing Crime Intelligence structure was dismantled, just when it should have begun investigating a new set of offenders.</em></strong></p>
<blockquote><p>
<strong>As the police began to gather and act on intelligence on these emerging Middle Eastern gangs the first of the series of events took place. The New South Wales Police was restructured under Peter Ryan.</strong> Crime Intelligence, the eyes and ears of all police forces throughout the world, was dismantled overnight and a British-style intelligence unit was created. The formation of this unit and its functions has been best described by <a href="http://www.abc.net.au/lateline/stories/s259537.htm">Dr Richard Basham</a> — as a library stocking outdated books. The new Crime Intelligence and Information Section became completely reactive. It received crime intelligence from the field and stored it. Almost no relevant intelligence was ever dispensed to operational police from 1997 until I left in 2002. It was a disgrace&#8230;
</p>
<p>
But even more frustrating for operational police were the activities of this ethnic crime group, activities that set it apart from almost all others bar the Cabramatta 5T. The Lebanese groups were ruthless, extremely violent, and they intimidated not only innocent witnesses, but even the police that attempted to arrest them. As these crime groups encountered less resistance in terms of police operations and enforcement, their power grew not only within their own communities, but also all around Sydney — except in <a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Cabramatta,+NSW,+Australia&#038;sa=X&#038;oi=map&#038;ct=title">Cabramatta</a>, where their fear of the South-East Asian crime groups limited their forays. But the rest of Sydney became easy pickings.</p>
</blockquote>
<p><strong style="COLOR: #ff0020"><em>The police force became weakened by mismanagement: cronyism, ineptitude, loss of expertise, and the desire to avoid outside scrutiny.</p>
<p>Lacking the moxie to go after the most dangerous and well-connected criminals, many of the police instead selectively pursued those individuals and groups who could not retaliate and who thus were more &#8220;politically correct&#8221; targets.</em></strong></p>
<blockquote><p><strong>The second in the series of events began to take shape with Peter Ryan’s executive leadership team.</strong> Under Ryan’s nose they began to carve up the New South Wales Police and form little kingdoms where a senior police officer ruled almost untouched by outside influence. They then appointed their own commanders in the police stations. Almost all of them had little or no street experience; but they in turn brought along their friends as duty officers, similarly inexperienced. Some of the experience these police counted on their resumes included stints at Human Resources, the Academy, the Police Band in one case, the various cubby-holes in Police Headquarters, almost no operational policing experience — yet they were tasked to lead. Never has the expression “the blind leading the blind” been more appropriate.
</p>
<p>
The impact that this leadership team had on day-to-day operational policing was disastrous. In many of the key areas that were experiencing rapid rises in Middle Eastern crime, these new leaders became more concerned with relations between the police and ethnic minorities than with emerging violent crime. The power and influence of the local religious and minority leaders cannot be overstated. <strong>Police began to use selective law enforcement.</strong> They selected targets that were unlikely to use their ethnic background and cultural beliefs to hinder police investigations or arrests. <strong>It was mostly Anglo-Saxons and Asians that were the targets, because they were under-represented by religious leaders and the media. They were soft targets&#8230;</strong>
</p>
<p>
In hundreds upon hundreds of incidents police have backed down to Middle Eastern thugs and taken no action and allowed incidents to go unpunished. Again I stress the unbelievable influence that local politicians and religious leaders played in covering up the real state of play in the south-west.
</p>
<p>
<strong>The third event was the reforming of Criminal Investigations into a centrally controlled body called Crime Agencies.</strong> All the specialist crime squads were done away with: Arson, Armed Robbery, Drugs, Organised Crime, Special Breaking, Consorting, Vice, Gaming, Motor Vehicle Theft were wrapped up into one-size-fits-all. Ryan once boasted that by the time he finished retraining the New South Wales Police, constables could investigate a traffic accident in the morning and a homicide in the afternoon, a statement that summed up his Alice-in-Wonderland policing theories. All the expertise and experience evaporated overnight&#8230;</p>
</blockquote>
<p><strong style="COLOR: #ff0020"><em>As if all that were not enough, the management began collecting statistics on just six crimes &#8211; a list that excluded the major offenses associated with organized crime.</p>
<p>Having to meet these standards forced the police on the street to focus even less on the growing problem of organized crime.</em></strong></p>
<blockquote><p><strong>The final straw for the New South Wales Police was the OCR — Op Crime Review, which Peter Ryan and his executive team came up with.</strong> It was loosely based on the groundbreaking <a href="http://www.baselinemag.com/c/a/Past-News/CompStat-From-Humble-Beginnings/">Compstat</a> program of the New York Police Department, the brainchild of Commissioner William Bratton. The difference between Ryan’s OCR and the NYPD Compstat was that the NYPD model covered everything on the criminal waterfront. The Ryan-inspired OCR had just six crimes. And those six included domestic violence, random breath testing, theft, robbery, assaults and motor vehicle theft — no drugs, organised crime, firearms, shootings, attempted murders, homicides. The crimes that instil fear into the average citizen were ignored, and with plenty of innovative answers as to why. The OCR focused police attention on a limited number of crimes and allowed far more serious and deadly crimes to get out of control&#8230;
</p>
<p>
With no organised crime function, no gang unit except for the South-East Asian Strike Force, the New South Wales Police turned against every convention known to Western policing in dealing with organised crime groups. <strong>In effect the Lebanese crime gangs were handed the keys to Sydney.</strong>
</p>
<p>
<strong>The most influential of the Middle Eastern crime groups are the Muslim males of <a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Bankstown,+NSW,+Australia&#038;sa=X&#038;oi=map&#038;ct=title">Telopea Street</a>, Bankstown, known as the Telopea Street Boys.</strong> They and their associates have been involved in numerous murders over the past five years, many of them unprovoked fatal attacks on young Australian men for no other reason than that they are “Skips”, as they call Australians. They have been involved in all manner of crime on a scale we have never seen before. Ram-raids on expensive stores in the city are epidemic. <strong>The theft of expensive motor vehicles known as car-jacking is increasing at an alarming rate.</strong> This crime involves gangs finding a luxury motor vehicle parked outside a restaurant or hotel and watching until the occupants return to drive home. The car is followed, the victims assaulted at gunpoint, and the vehicle stolen. <strong>The vehicles are always around or above the $100,000 mark and are believed to be taken to warehouses before being shipped interstate or to the Middle East&#8230;</strong></p>
</blockquote>
<p><strong style="COLOR: #ff0020"><em>Australia&#8217;s <a href="http://1389blog.com/2007/12/10/big-yellow-taxi-christian-pastors-muslims-and-free-speech-in-australia/">racial vilification laws</a>, along with the entire &#8220;multiculturalism&#8221; industry, worked together to keep the growing debacle concealed from public scrutiny.</p>
<p>Tim Priest explained where this willful blindness would eventually lead:</em></strong></p>
<blockquote><p><strong>I wonder whether the inventors of the racial hatred laws introduced during the golden years of multiculturalism ever took into account that we, the silent majority, would be the target of racial violence and hatred.</strong> I don’t remember any charges being laid in conjunction with the gang rapes of south-western Sydney in 2001, where race was clearly an issue and race was used to humiliate the victims. But then, unbelievably, a publicly-funded document produced by the Anti-Discrimination Board called “The Race for Headlines” was circulated, and it sought not only to cover up race as a motive for the rapes, but to criticise any accurate media reporting on this matter as racially biased. It worries many operational police that organisations like the Anti-Discrimination Board, the Privacy Council and the Civil Liberties Council have become unaccountable and push agendas that don’t represent the values that this great country was built on.</p>
<p>
The Middle Eastern crime groups and their associates number in the thousands, not the hundreds as the government and senior police would have you believe. It is the biggest crime problem we have ever faced, and it is growing. Hardly a day goes past without some violent crime involving a “male of Middle Eastern appearance”, though I see lately that description is watered down now to include “and / or Mediterranean appearance”. To an operational policeman, there is a noticeable difference between an Italian and a Lebanese male.
</p>
<p>
That these groups of males can roam a city and assault, rob and intimidate at will can no longer be denied or excused. You need only to look at Paris and other European countries that have had mass immigration from Middle Eastern countries to see the sort of problems we can expect in years to come. My prediction is that within ten years, Middle Eastern crime groups will spread rapidly across Australia as they seek to expand their enterprises. <strong>There will be no-go areas in south-western Sydney, just like Paris.</strong>
</p>
<p>
Only recently I have seen quotes from senior police and retired police who claim that race is not the issue in organised crime. Those statements are stupid and dangerous. Organised crime groups with the exception of the bikies are almost always ethnically based — any experienced detective will tell you that. The days of Anglo-Saxon gangs are almost gone, with the exception of one or two <a href="http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,21985,17559138-25717,00.html">local beach gangs</a>&#8230;

<p>Unfortunately, yes, as shown in our other articles about events in <strong><a href="http://1389blog.com/category/australia/">Australia</a></strong>. As in the US, the legal system in Australia makes it difficult to curtail enemy jihadist activity. It&#8217;s time we all muster the political will to do something about that.

<h3><strong style="COLOR: #ff0030">Pardoning a rape <em>victim?</em></strong></h3>
<p>Is there not something inherently <em>wrong</em> in the world view that gave rise to this situation?</p>
<h3>A tremendous moral distortion is inherent in Islam.</h3>
<p>We saw it also in the recent plight of the British woman in Sudan. Angry mobs had been demanding that she be put to death for having allowed her pupils to name a teddy bear &#8220;Mohammed&#8221; <a href="http://texasfred.net/archives/790"><em>(h/t TexasFred).</em></a> </p>
<h4>The answer? Confront, challenge, and refute Islam at every turn.</h4>
<p>Shari&#8217;a law &#8211; inherent in the Koran and in Islamic tradition &#8211; demands that those who renounce Islam are to be killed. The same penalty applies to those who preach Christianity to Muslims.</p>
<p>Given that reality, I must point out that we can scarcely expect people to abandon Islam unless we offer them a better alternative. Nonetheless, evil must be renounced. Early Christians faced the same penalty in the days of the Roman Empire, and we face it again today in many parts of the world. We must be prepared to explain, both to ourselves and to Muslims, why embracing Christianity is worth the risk.</p>

<h3>For comparison:</h3>
<h4>King James Version: John 8:1-11</h4>
<blockquote>
<p>
1  Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.
 </p>
<p>
2  And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.
 </p>
<p>
3  And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,
 </p>
<p>
4  they say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
 </p>
<p>
5  Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: Lev. 20.10 · Deut. 22.22-24 but what sayest thou?
 </p>
<p>
6  This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.
 </p>
<p>
7  So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
 </p>
<p>
8  And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
 </p>
<p>
9  And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
 </p>
<p>
10  When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
 </p>
<p>
11  She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

<h3 style="FONT-SIZE: 1.5em">The Religion of Peace Needs Our Help!</h3>
<h4>No, not <em>that</em> &#8216;Religion of Peace.&#8217;</h4>
<h4><a href="http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/">This one.</a></h4>
<p>An individual that I refuse to name here again (but many of my regular readers will know of and who&#8217;s name may be found quoted below) has targeted the gentle folks at <a href="http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/">The Religion of Peace</a> in an effort to shut down the site just as <a href="http://foehammer.net/2007/08/sutter-threatens-the-anvil.html">he attempted to shut down the Anvil</a> and <a href="http://jihadwatch.org/">Jihad Watch</a> and others. The results of this phony reverend&#8217;s actions provoked a number of internet companies to incorrectly categorize The Religion of Peace. These incorrect categories have caused the site to be listed as a hate site, and consequently blocked by some servers. I know that the accusations made by Sutter, and the various companies are patently false. The Religion of Peace provides accurate facts about <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam">Islam</a> &#8211; not lies. The site is not racist. Islam is not a race but a political and cultist ideology. The Religion of Peace speaks out against all violence that is directed towards non-Muslims and Muslims alike.</p>
<h4>From the editor at TheReligionofPeace.com:</h4>
<blockquote>
<p>Anyone who has a blog that attempts to defend the west from radical Islam or Marxists knows that they are constantly at risk of being labeled racist, and shut down by individuals and organizations who do not want the truth to be known. The efforts to silence our voices will increase. We are all in this fight together. Therefore, it would be greatly appreciated if all of you would post a notice on your blogs, urging your readers to support The Religion of Peace by sending protest e-mails to the offending companies. Islam and the thought police are coming after all of us. Free speech is in jeopardy. We need to pull together into a strong and united force to combat those who intend to crush us.</p>

<h4>Here is in-depth analysis of the situation and the problem:</h4>
<blockquote>
<p><a href="http://208.109.162.152/sutter/pages/case_study-TROP.htm">Case Study:</a> TheReligionofPeace.com</p>
<p>How did Jim Sutter manage to get an anti-violence and anti-hate website by an anti-racialist owner classified as &#8220;violent,&#8221; &#8220;obscene,&#8221; &#8220;hateful,&#8221; and &#8220;racist?&#8221; Here is the story from the preferably anonymous editor of TROP.</p>
<h4>About TheReligionofPeace.com</h4>
<p>From the Editor of <a href="http://thereligionofpeace.com/">TheReligionofPeace.com</a>:</p>
<p>TROP was originally started in 2002 to help Muslims understand that there are more important things going on in the world than a woman being asked to remove her veil in front of a judge, or a Muslim man getting his feelings hurt at an airline security gate.</p>
<p>In an effort to spark moral perspective on the part of organizations like CAIR, we document acts of deadly violence committed in the name of Islamic supremacy, similar to the way other sites compile data on victims of all supremacist ideologies, whether racial, ethnic or nationalist.</p>
<p>In addition to maintaining a database of terrorist attacks, TROP presents news and articles from the Muslim world, as well as open reference information for anyone beginning research into Islam. We do not promote a particular religion and we try to stay non-partisan.</p>
<p>Although we obviously oppose the doctrinal elements of Islam that inspire violence or are in contradiction to liberal values, TROP has always taken a strong, documented stand against judging individuals by their group identity. In many places on our site we openly denounce harming, harassing or stereotyping any Muslim based on his or her religion.</p>
<p>Our site also has a record of acknowledging and condemning rare acts of violence against Muslims by American criminals, either in the U.S. or overseas. We publicly oppose desecrating the Qur&#8217;an and do not even use the term &#8216;Islamofascism&#8221; in our writings. Since we only want to publish truthful information, we welcome dialogue and post any corrections that are proven necessary to us.</p>
<p>We focus on the moral failings of Islam and its incompatibilities with Western values, including women&#8217;s rights, democratic freedoms, religious tolerance, and (ironically) freedom of expression among others. Nevertheless, we try to be balanced and accurate in our writing and to avoid using absolutes. We also make a documented effort to discourage bigoted thinking.</p>
<p>Although our site has nothing to do with race, we have let it be known that we are anti-racialist. Over the years, we have championed the cause of Africans, Arabs, Hindus, Buddhists and anyone else victimized in the name of Islam. We have received praise from liberals, conservatives, Jews, Christians, Hindus, atheists, gays and even a few disenchanted Muslims.</p>
<h4>Jim Sutter Targets TheReligionofPeace.com</h4>
<p>In July of 2007, I was contacted by a man eventually calling himself &#8220;Reverend Jim Sutter&#8221; regarding my website, TheReligionofPeace.com (TROP).</p>
<p>Sutter at first played the &#8220;Bad Cop&#8221; under an alias, claiming that ours site is a &#8220;hate site:&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I will make it my business and consider it a solemn duty to condemn and expose the site called thereligionofpeace. IMO it is no different in any discernable way than a site run by Al Qaeda, the KKK, or the Nazi party.&#8221;</p>
<p>I replied politely to Sutter, pointing out that he was going to need to do more than just state an opinion, and I challenged him to support what he was saying. I told him that I was open-minded and would make any corrections that he could prove needed to be made. I also directed him to a page on our site in which we plainly separate ourselves from the insidious organizations to which he associated us.</p>
<p>In his reply, Sutter made it rather evident that he did not read the page to which we had directed him:</p>
<p>&#8220;You invite me to read &#8220;what to do about&#8221; which is just another bigoted exhortation to hate &amp; violence. Wow. Then we have you writing this &#8220;this makes me suspicious&#8221;. That figures too, since paranoia usually accompanies bigotry.&#8221;</p>
<p>I then spelled out out for him what he was unwilling to read for himself &#8211; that TROP openly and unambiguously denounces all forms of violence and bigotry. The writings that we post which are critical of Islam are solidly supported by the Qur&#8217;an, Hadith, Sira (biography of Muhammad) and the historical record.</p>
<p>Sutter then contacted us the next day under his real name, pretending to have seen the site for the first time and clearly wearing the &#8220;Good Cop&#8221; hat. He complimented us on TROP, but suggested the changes that we needed to make in order to meet with his approval. I generously ignored his earlier correspondence and entered into a lengthy dialogue of about 20 e-mail messages, in which I challenged him to prove that his requested modifications were necessary.</p>
<p>(It is important to note that Sutter never once accused TROP of being either a &#8220;hate&#8221; site or a &#8220;racist&#8221; site once he began using his real name. I suspect that he told the URL search engines something entirely different in order to punish me for not backing down to his demands.)</p>
<p>Over the next week or so, I noticed a pattern with Sutter:</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p>He would say things that weren&#8217;t true. A good example:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><span style="COLOR: #004040">&#8220;The FBI states that hate crimes against Muslims currently number higher than against any other group. Those hate crimes include murder, arson, rape, and kidnapping.&#8221;</span></p>
</blockquote>
<p>This is blatantly false, of course. No Muslims have been raped or kidnapped in America because of their religion, and 70% of the targets of religious hate crime are Jewish. (source)</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>When caught, Sutter would always ignore any lies, no matter how freshly told. This happened when I sent him the above link and asked three times where he got his erroneous information. I got no reply. It became obvious that he was making things up, but there was not the slightest bit of shame or even an attempt to divert blame. It was as if he felt entitled to say anything he pleased &#8211; all while making his usual claims of &#8220;fact, logic and evidence.&#8221;</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Sutter would play games in his replies. Sometimes he would plagiarize entire sections of text from other sources and pretend that they were his own words. Often times he would ignore an argument that wasn&#8217;t going his way, and simply not quote it in his reply. Sometimes he would be intentionally naive, and pretend not to understand ideas that were made quite obvious.</p>
</li>
</ol>
<p>When I realized that Sutter was not taking the conversation seriously, I let him know that there was no basis for our continuing the discussion. (I dialogue with sincere objectors, but I simply don&#8217;t have time to get into food fights with disingenuous hacks).</p>
<p>It was only about a week later that I began hearing from military families and ordinary Internet users who were unable to get to our site. Despite being unable to make his case against us in open debate, Sutter decided to make good on his original threats to us:</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m contacting the proprietors of several databases of internet hate-sites to report thereligionofpeace, this will have the effect of blocking your site from being referenced, linked or quoted on the many discussion forums that bar those listed hate-sites, such as democratic underground.&#8221;</p>
<p>After operating for five years without any sort of problems, Secure Computing, SurfControl and SonicWall had TROP blocked overnight by wrongfully classifying our site according to Jim Sutter&#8217;s demands… all because we would not adopt his political and theological positions!</p>
<p>The correspondence with Internet censors concerning our site is not public information, but it is obtainable through a court order, since these are public corporations. Only then will I know whether Sutter used his real name, an alias, or had one of his gullible groupies do the dirty work for him. I do know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that he is behind the censorship and miscategorizing of our site as well as the many other anti-Jihad sites across the Internet that have suffered recent problems.</p>
<p>Sutter is very good at sounding important. He often recites a small handful of court cases in order to embellish his correspondence with the Internet&#8217;s largest censors (although even a small dose of legal research will find that these are not what they appear). Still, there is something terribly wrong with the system when one small bully is allowed to dictate personal ideological standards to large corporations and thus millions of Internet users.</p>
<h4>Aftermath</h4>
<p>The damage that Jim Sutter and others, including SonicWall, Secure Computing and SurfControl, have done is going to take months, perhaps years to rectify. For my site to be labeled as hate speech, &#8220;obscene&#8221; or &#8220;extreme&#8221; merely because we object to the extremist elements of the Islamic religion is anti-intellectual and smacks of McCarthyism.</p>
<p>How is it that a website primarily concerned with ending violence against people just because they worship a different god is labeled extreme and obscene? Have we really reached such a low point in America when one is not free to criticize violence and religious totalitarianism?</p>
<p>The association of TROP by SonicWall and the others with &#8220;racist&#8221; and &#8220;hate&#8221; sites is particularly slanderous to me, since I have a strong and provable record of actively opposing bigotry and racism, both professionally and personally. Anti-racialism and the utter ridiculousness of even categorizing people by race is one of the major themes of the novel that I wrote several years ago, for example. I also have a family member, who published a book about her childhood experience in a Nazi concentration camp, and who would be quite surprised by these public slurs.</p>
<p>For Jim Sutter to punish people like me for petty personal grudges is one thing. For companies like Sonic Wall, Secure Computing and SurfControl to go along with it is absolutely unconscionable.</p>
<h4>Exhibits</h4>
<p>How do the censors rate TROP against sites that are pro-Jihad or blatantly anti-Christian?</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s use answering-christianity.com and JihadUnspun.com as examples.</p>
<p>&#8220;Answering-Christianity&#8221; is a Muslim site that is dedicated to promoting Islam and trashing Christianity using distortion and misinformation. The author once started to create a list of &#8220;Christian Terrorist Attacks&#8221; that he promised would be &#8220;5,000 times worse&#8221; than our list. He quit after only a few dozen entries that included such gems as terror attacks by Columbian drug lords and a 40-year-old church bombing by the Klan.</p>
<p>The editors of Jihad Unspun are blatant apologists for Islamic terrorism. They proudly make the connection between Islam and terrorism a lot more forcefully than does TROP, and they even criticize other Muslims for not joining. Recently, they posted a flattering review of Osama Bin Laden&#8217;s videotaped address, complimenting the man who massacred thousands of Americans for inviting the survivors to embrace Islam.</p>
<p>Like TROP, Jihad Unspun reports Islamic terrorism. They report suicide bombings as &#8216;martyrdom attacks&#8217; and provide justification for other &#8216;Mujahideen&#8217; violence. They also inflate casualties from attack by several factors and even make up attacks that never happened.</p>
<p>So, how do Secure Computing, SurfControl and SonicWall feel about this?</p>
<h4>Secure Computing</h4>
<p>Secure Computing says that TROP is &#8220;Extreme, Violent, Obscene and Mature.&#8221; However, it merely categorizes &#8220;Answering Christianity&#8221; as &#8220;Religion and Ideology.&#8221; (Secure Computing and Answering Christianity).</p>
<p>Secure Computing also rates &#8220;Jihad Unspun&#8221; as &#8220;General News, Politics and Religion&#8221; (Secure Computing and Jihad Unspun)</p>
<h4>SurfControl</h4>
<p>SurfControl says that TROP is &#8220;Violent,&#8221; however, the pro-Jihad and consistently unreliable &#8220;Jihad Unspun&#8221; is categorized as &#8220;News.&#8221; (SurfControl) One also wonders why the list of terror attacks on TROP counts as violence, but not the list of attacks on IraqBodyCount.net (which is categorized as &#8220;Politics&#8221;) nor that of Antiwar.com (&#8220;News&#8221;).</p>
<h4>SonicWall</h4>
<p>SonicWall is particularly shameful. They say that TROP is &#8220;Violence/Hate/Racism&#8221; even though we are actually opposed to all three of these. But the company actually ranks the anti-Christian site, &#8220;Answering Christianity,&#8221; as &#8220;Religion&#8221; and the pro-terror &#8220;Jihad Unspun&#8221; site as &#8220;News and Media.&#8221; (SonicWall and TROP, SonicWall and Answering Christianity, SonicWall and Jihad Unspun).</p>

<h4><em>By Gramfan</em></h4>
<h3>Australian Elections:</h3>
<h4>The Most Important Issue Never Discussed</h4>
<p><em>(Disclaimer: there are Muslims to whom this does not apply. They are known as &#8220;moderate Muslims&#8221;. Many are working hard to reform Islam at great personal risk. Many need security and body guards).</em></p>
<p>On November 24th, Australians will be going to the polls, and next year the USA will be doing the same. This, to me, seems to be a most important poll. It seems perhaps even more important than appears on the surface.</p>
<p>The issues being raised, especially in Australia, cover enormously important areas. We are told they are the economy, workplace relations, education, health care, and, of course, global warming and climate change.</p>
<p>There should be another very important issue that few politicians are willing to discuss honestly and fearlessly.</p>
<p><strong>I see that issue as being immigration.</strong> This is a broad umbrella topic that has subsets of Islam and terrorism.</p>
<p>Ever since the terrorism that occurred on 9/11, I have endeavoured to educate myself regarding Islam. I had a little knowledge of it since I was at university, teacher&#8217;s college and a novice teacher during the Six Day War and the Yom Kippur War. All us left-wing students were rooting for the Israelis &#8211; how times have changed! (Reference: <a href="http://www.honestreporting.com/">Honest Reporting</a>)</p>
<p>Since then we have had countless incidents of terrorism all over the globe which have affected many people not only in western countries but also in the orient &#8211; places like India and Thailand, for example. (Reference: <a href="http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/">The Religion of Peace</a>)</p>
<p>I think the incident that actually disturbed me most intensely was the <a href="http://1389blog.com/2007/10/05/join-the-mohammed-cartoon-blogburst-learn-why-its-still-so-important/">Mohammed cartoon fiasco</a>. This sounds very strange, I know, but it hit me then that not only were we all subject to possible terrorist attacks, but that our freedom of speech was really under threat in such a way as I had never seen in my lifetime.</p>
<h3>What&#8217;s At Stake?</h3>
<p>In the years since 9/11 and up till now it has become clear to me that western liberal democracy is on a precipice. And it MUST be saved.</p>
<p>This is a system of civilization that has allowed the unimaginable progress that has occurred in the past two to four thousand years; perhaps even further back. Our civilization, while it varies in Australia, the USA, the UK and Europe, owes its greatness to Greek and Roman civilizations and of course the Judeo-Christian heritage these countries share.</p>
<p>It is not the purpose of this piece of prose to focus on the negatives these civilizations are responsible for. I am talking in a very general sense. However I cannot see how one can avoid recognising this background that has made us what we are today. We have evolved, progressed, refined and developed a tremendous foundation for excellence. We would not be where we are now without it.</p>
<p>Now we find that we are being confronted by a belief system that cannot lay claim to any of the above points. We are also being told by the left-wing elements in our society that all the west has achieved is highly flawed and invalid, and that our institutions and our various religions have a lot to answer for.</p>
<p>Maybe they do. But while we still have them we can improve upon them and their achievements. When we no longer have them, we can only go backwards, self-destruct or be destroyed by external forces.</p>
<p>These &#8220;external forces&#8221;, are, in my opinion, Islamists and left-wingers, who seem to have brought us to this untenable situation.</p>
<h3>Worth Reading Regularly:</h3>
<p>We can see this now from reading various websites like those I mentioned above and many, many more; <em>e.g.,</em></p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://jihadwatch.org/">Jihad Watch</a></li>
<li><a href="http://www.islam-watch.org/index.html">Islam Watch</a></li>
<li><a href="http://www.news.faithfreedom.org/index.php">Faith Freedom</a></li>
</ul>
<p>&#8230;just for starters.</p>
<p>I mention these sites as there are opinions from both sides of Islam, from all religions and from all parts of the globe.</p>
<h3>How This Has Affected Australia</h3>
<p>Whilst Australia has thankfully not had an attack on its soil, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2002_Bali_bombings">we were victims of</a> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2005_Bali_bombings">two attacks in Bali</a>, we have our own &#8220;John Walker Lindh&#8221;: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Hicks">David Hicks</a> &#8211; darling of the left-wing papers, we have had the almost-humour of the <a href="http://michellemalkin.com/2007/01/17/big-lizards-meat-oaf/">&#8220;Cat-Meat Mufti&#8221;</a>, the despicable Muslim gang rapes, the <a href="http://gatesofvienna.blogspot.com/2006/04/fall-of-france-and-multicultural-world.html">Cronulla riots</a>, several arrests for suspected terrorism planning, and more recently, the case of Dr Mohammed Haneef (a cousin of the Glasgow bombers, <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/australia/story/0,,2136542,00.html">now found to be innocent</a>) to name but a few incidents that have brought Islam and some of its followers into our consciousness.</p>
<h3>What Can We Do About It?</h3>
<h4>The most important thing is educating people.</h4>
<ol>
<li>The most important thing we must tell them is that, <strong style="COLOR: #ff0020">although Islam is rooted in the Abrahamic faiths, it really has very little in common with the other two.</strong></li>
<li>We should also educate people that <strong style="COLOR: #ff0020">the primary goal of Islam is world domination and the establishment of a global caliphate.</strong> This means western countries are all targets.</li>
<li>We should also maintain freedom of speech so we can get the truth out there without fear, no matter what our religion or lack thereof. (Reference: <a href="http://www.apostatesofislam.com/">Apostates of Islam</a>) We know now that some countries like the UK are curtailing this freedom.</li>
<li>We must be vigilant and objectively check the MSM daily.</li>
<li>We are fortunate to have a powerful tool at our disposal. The personal computer is a great weapon for us and unfortunately also for those who seek to destroy us. We must use this weapon whenever we see an opportunity to write letters to politicians, clergy, and any other influential leaders.</li>
<li>Many newspapers now have daily &#8216;blogs that are easily accessed and the issue of Islam is a frequent discussion point &#8220;Downunder&#8221;. Those of us who are concerned have identified the main journalists who see this threat:
<ul>
<li><a href="http://blogs.news.com.au/heraldsun/andrewbolt/">Andrew Bolt</a></li>
<li><a href="http://blogs.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/piersakerman/">Piers Akerman</a></li>
<li><a href="http://blogs.theaustralian.news.com.au/janetalbrechtsen/index.php">Janet Albrechtsen</a></li>
</ul>
<p>These three journalists run readily accessible &#8216;blogs.</p>
</li>
</ol>
<h3>Even some leftists are beginning to wake up:</h3>
<p>Just last week a writer of usual left bias, Sally Neighbour, <a href="http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,25197,22597972-20261,00.html">wrote an article</a> suggesting it is not the media that makes Muslims look bad, but rather Muslims themselves.</p>
<p>Today another left-wing paper published an article that really surprised me: James Button wrote: * <a href="http://www.smh.com.au/news/opinion/liberals-getting-left-out-of-the-debate-on-islam/2007/10/21/1192940899288.html?page=fullpage#contentSwap1">Liberals getting left out of the debate on Islam</a> *&#8221;liberals&#8221; as in left-wing &#8211; not to be confused with the Liberal Party.</p>
<p>Maybe things are changing? We must live in hope.</p>
<h3>But back to where I started: the forthcoming election.</h3>
<p>The Australian Liberal Party, a conservative party, has run this country well for eleven years. Sure they have done some things I didn&#8217;t agree with, and yes, they made some mistakes, but I feel they have an idea of what is going on.</p>
<p>Peter Costello, the Federal Treasurer and next in line for the Liberal Party Leadership, is the only western leader to my knowledge <a href="http://www.treasurer.gov.au/tsr/content/transcripts/2005/151.asp">who had the intestinal fortitude to say:</a></p>
<blockquote>
<p>…Well the point I would make is this, Australians are free to express themselves about political views, let&#8217;s make that clear. But there are some things Australia stands for, has always stood for, always will stand for which will never change. We will never be an Islamic State. We will never observe Sharia Law. We have a Constitution. The Constitution means that Australia has a civil state that the laws are made by elected representatives. We will always be a democracy and to people who say, well we have come to this country and we would like to turn it into something that it isn&#8217;t, I say, you must understand, that will never occur. There are certain core Constitutional things that Australia stands for, always will and expects all of its citizens to accept. And that is a civil government with parliamentary democracy, with democratic law making, with equality between men and women and if you&#8217;re someone that doesn&#8217;t like those principles then Australia may not be the best place for you.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>This is the party that I fear will lose the election; not because they have done a bad job, but because they have been in power a long time, because the youth of this country have no idea how good they have it right now, and more importantly, the left-wing party and their sycophantic press want it. And I also wonder: what other power is &#8220;pulling the strings&#8221;?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>It is no exaggeration to say that the recent U.S./NATO/EU war against the Serbs, and on behalf of the sl-Qaeda-linked Muslim jihadists in the Balkans, was the product of the slickest propaganda and disinformation operation in recorded history.</p>
<p>Only now is the real story beginning to get any traction&#8230;and some of us have worked for years to get this to this point. Even so, it is a rare thing for anybody with political, media, or academic connections to come out of the woodwork and admit that the mainstream media, together with official sources, enforced a totally false portrayal of a war and of an entire people. But the tissue of lies is finally starting to unravel, and the truth is coming out, whether anyone likes it or not.</p>
<p>At least one person, evidently without having read any of these articles, has already vilified me, by accusing me of &#8220;peddling genocide denial,&#8221; simply for having raised this issue. I knew that was going to happen, because the mainstream media have usurped the roles of judge, jury, and executioner. The unthinking mob follows like lemmings, never imagining that the same thing could someday happen to them. The instant that the media have accused someone of a heinous offense, whether there is any basis for it or not, it&#8217;s already too late. From then on, anyone else who dares to say, &#8220;Let&#8217;s take another look at the evidence!&#8221; is immediately tarred with the same brush.</p>
<p><strong>Have Americans learned <em>anything</em> from the Michael Nifong bogus-rape case?</strong> Or from <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/TheLaw/wireStory?id=3292380">Nifong&#8217;s disbarment and suspension</a> for numerous acts of prosecutorial misconduct, such as withholding exculpatory evidence? Or from the fact that Nifong was more than willing to continue ruining the lives of innocent people, rather than man up and admit that he had been mistaken?</p>
<p>Evidently not! So many people still want to believe that the Nifong debacle is an isolated instance. Not only is the Nifong case far from unique; but also it is a mirror in microcosm of the vast scope of deception, the prosecutorial abuse, and the total absence of due process of law, that have accompanied the recent wars against the Serbian people and their ongoing aftermath.</p>
<p><strong>Just read these articles!</strong> Read them carefully. If you disagree with what you see, it behooves you to research the facts yourself <strong><em>before</em> you comment.</strong> If you are afraid to read these articles, ask yourself why. And if you discover that you have had a mistaken impression of what was going on, <em>grow up and admit it!</em></p>
