Nigeria: Islamists Torch Christian Home…Then Shoot Those Trying to Flee

Posted by FactReal on May 11, 2012

MORE FROM THE “RELIGION OF PEACE”
Via Gateway Pundit:

Gunmen set fire to a home in a Christian village near a central Nigeria city violently divided by faith and shot those who ran outside to flee the flames, killing at least seven people and wounding one other, authorities said Thursday…

The killings that took place late Wednesday night happened in the village of Tahoss, said Mark Lipdo, who runs a Christian advocacy group known as the Stefanos Foundation. The gunmen, suspected to be from the Muslim Fulani herdsmen who roam the pasturelands of the plateau, targeted one specific family in their attack, Lipdo said.

Dutch Politician Marked For Death for Exposing Islam (Video)

Posted by FactReal on May 3, 2012

PERSECUTED BY THE “RELIGION OF PEACE”
Geert Wilders, Dutch Parliament Member, told Hannity how Islamist radicals have marked him for death for telling the truth about Islam, the Islamization of Europe, and its dangerous consequences (May 1, 2012):
Other video sources: Here, and here.
About Geert Wilders from his book Marked for Death: Islam’s War Against the West and Me:

Fanatics, terrorists, and appeasers have tried everything to silence Geert Wilders, Europe’s…Member of Parliament—from putting him on trial to putting a price on his head. But Wilders refuses to be silenced…

For years, from his native Netherlands, Wilders has sounded the alarm about the relentless spread of Islam in the West. And he has paid a steep personal price, enduring countless death threats and being forced into a permanent state of hiding.

Now, for the first time, Wilders offers a full account of his long battle against the zealots who have already slaughtered his countryman Theo van Gogh—whose killer also threatened to murder Wilders himself.

In Marked for Death, Wilders reveals:

  • How—and why—liberal politicians, including Barack Obama, downplay the Islamic threat
  • The systematic suppression of free speech through lawsuits, prosecutions, threats, and violence meted out against Islam’s critics
  • The untold story: how Islamic groups are redefining human rights to suppress non-Muslims everywhere
  • The true, bloody history of Islam’s spread throughout the world
  • How the West can defend itself against an existential enemy determined to conquer the globe

Expelled from Britain, banned from Indonesia, denounced by the UN Secretary General, prosecuted in court for his beliefs, forced into government safe houses, and constantly threatened with death, Geert Wilders is unbowed and unapologetic. Marked for Death is a stark warning about a growing threat to our liberties written by a man who has lost his freedom—and would not see the rest of us suffer the same fate.

A member of the Dutch Parliament since 1998, Geert Wilders is the founder and leader of the Party for Freedom (PVV) in the Netherlands. Since 2004, he has been living under round-the-clock police protection due to death threats from extremist Muslims. In 2008, he attracted international attention when he was taken to court over Fitna, a documentary he filmed that explores Islamic terrorism and the spread of Islam in the Netherlands. Mr. Wilders now travels the world in defense of liberty and freedom of expression.

Student Quits Choir over Islamic Prayer Song Praising Allah

Posted by FactReal on February 16, 2012

Via FoxNews:

A Colorado high school student says he quit the  school choir after an Islamic song containing the lyric “there is no truth  except Allah” made it into the repertoire.

James Harper, a senior at Grand Junction High School  in Grand Junction, put his objection to singing “Zikr,” a song written by Indian  composer A.R. Rahman, in an email to Mesa County School District 51 officials.  When the school stood by choir director Marcia Wieland’s selection, Harper said,  he quit.

“I don’t want to come across as a bigot or a racist,  but I really don’t feel it is appropriate for students in a public high school  to be singing an Islamic worship song,” Harper told  KREX-TV. “This is worshipping another God, and even worshipping another  prophet … I think there would be a lot of outrage if we made a Muslim choir  say Jesus Christ is the only truth.”

Part of the song says:

Apart form (sic from) Allah subhan ta alah’s greatness,
Take anything other than Allah out of your heart
And leave Light of Muhammad (May peace be upon him)
The Truth of La ila ha il Allah (the Kalma of testimony or
shahadath, the basic of Islam, where every Muslim declares that
there is no one worship- worthy other than Allah)

Obama is Managing America’s Decline and the Rise of Islam

Posted by FactReal on October 26, 2011

Via Washington Times:
President Obama is empowering radical Islam across the Arab world. He is presiding over both the American decline and the rapid advance of our mortal jihadist enemies. From the Middle East to North Africa, the Arab Spring has turned into an Islamist winter. Contrary to the administration’s claims, the popular uprisings have not led to a “rebirth of freedom” – the emergence of liberal democracies in distant Arab lands. Rather, Muslim fundamentalists have used street protests against corrupt, autocratic regimes as a Trojan horse to expand Islamic militancy.

In Tunisia, an Islamist party with ideological ties to Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood is poised to win national elections. Its goal is to … erect a Muslim theocracy. [...]

Next month, it will be Egypt’s turn to hold elections. The Muslim Brotherhood is expected to gain the largest number of parliamentary seats. Its aim is to restore the global caliphate and return Cairo to the rule of fundamentalist clerics…Since the overthrow of strongman Hosni Mubarak, rampaging Muslim mobs have murdered numerous Coptic Egyptians and destroyed Christian churches. More than 100,000 Christian Copts have been expelled – an act of deliberate religious cleansing. [...]

In Libya, Mr. Obama supported the rebel movement…[W]hat comes after Gadhafi? Because of Mr. Obama’s policies, NATO has armed, trained and financed the creation of an Islamist Libya. Jihadists fill the ranks of the rebels…Tripoli’s interim government, the one the administration keeps telling us is “moderate” and “pro-democracy,” has just announced that Libya will be governed strictly by Shariah law.

Gaddafi Sodomized by Libyan Rebels before his Execution (Video)

Posted by FactReal on October 26, 2011

(Warning: Graphic images)

FROM THE “RELIGION OF PEACE”
This is what democracy and treatment of POWs looks like in islamic societies. Obama’s Arab Spring has arrived.

Another video source: here.
The Global Post reported on October 24, 2011:
SIRTE, Libya — An analysis of video obtained by GlobalPost from a rebel fighter who recorded the moment when Col. Muammar Gaddafi was first captured confirms that another rebel fighter, whose identity is unknown, sodomized the former leader as he was being dragged from the drainpipe where he had taken cover.

A frame by frame analysis of this exclusive GlobalPost video clearly shows the rebel trying to insert some kind of stick or knife into Gaddafi’s rear end.

GlobalPost correspondent Tracey Shelton said there is some question as to whether the instrument was a knife from the end of a machine gun, which Libyans call a Bicketti, or some kind of stick.

This latest video discovery comes as international and human rights groups call for a formal investigation into how the former Libyan leader was killed. In video clips that have emerged of his capture, Gaddafi can be seen injured but alive. Later he is seen with what appears to be gunshot wounds to his head and chest. According to the Geneva Conventions, however, abuse of prisoners under any circumstance is not permissable.
