BREXIT: Escape From Failed & Frightening Europe

(John Podhoretz’s article direct from The NEW YORK POST on 19 June 2016.)

Brexit is an escape from a failed and frightening Europe. In May, on a trip to London, almost every couple I met said they were in a mixed marriage. Their division was not over religion, or over party — rather, it was over Brexit, the referendum vote in the United Kingdom that takes place this week.

The results will determine whether Britain remains a member of the European Union, the financial amalgamation of 28 countries very loosely modeled on the United States’ domestic economic structure — or departs from it after 41 years.

A conservative thinker I know was passionately in favor of Britain exiting the European Union. His support for “Leave” centered on his understanding of his country’s ancient nationhood and how its sovereignty is slowly being eroded to nothing by the heavy hand of the central European Union bureaucracy based in Brussels.

Two Finger Test: Indonesian Army’s Virginity Exam

(Josephine McDermont’s articledirect from The BBC NEWS on 19 May 2015.)

Female recruits waiting to be vaginally tested in Indonesia.

Why does Indonesia demand that female military recruits are virgins? Indonesian women recruits' virginity is a matter of national security, a spokesman claims but human rights activists want Indonesia to stop so-called virginity tests or “Two Finger Test” being used in the recruitment of female military recruits.

"Bonkers", "primitive" and "unscientific" are words used to describe it by one of the Human Rights Watch (HRW) researchers who interviewed women who had been subjected to the test. The World Health Organization has said: "There is no place for virginity testing; it has no scientific validity." HRW says the tests are also discriminatory and have no bearing on a woman's ability to perform her job. What's happening in Indonesia?

Virginity tests are obligatory for female military and national police recruits who are typically high school graduates aged between 18 and 20. HRW's research indicates that the air force, army and navy have for decades also used the test on the fiancees of military officers before marriage.

Obama: Whose Side Is He On? Muslims' Side!

(Mona Charen’s article direct from The NATIONAL REVIEW on 14 June 2016.)

The president has a pattern of downplaying Islamist motivations and dismissing Americans’ fears. Whole doctoral dissertations could be devoted to the question of what makes President Obama angry and what does not.

His Tuesday broadside against Donald Trump stood in marked contrast to Sunday’s somewhat cold response to the Orlando massacre. This is a pattern. Mr. Obama did not name Trump, referring to him only as a “politician who tweets and appears on cable-news shows.”

I’m not inclined to defend Trump, and will not do so now — his notion that we bar all Muslims from traveling to the United States is laden with unintended consequences. But President Obama’s studied refusal to acknowledge the reality of Islamic-inspired violence has helped to create the Trump phenomenon.

Killing Homosexuals Is Muslim Law, Not ISIS Law

(Andrew McCarthy’s article direct from The NATIONAL REVIEW on 12 June 2016.)

Recent mass hanging of homosexuals in Iran.

For nearly 25 years, we’ve been clinging to the fiction that groups such as ISIS are anti-Islamic. Various reports indicate that the death toll from the jihadist attack overnight at a popular gay club in Orlando may exceed 50 people, with more than 50 others wounded.

The terrorist’s identity has been reported: He is Omar Mateen, a 29-year-old American citizen and devout Muslim from Fort Pierce, Fla., the son of immigrants from Afghanistan. The FBI has indicated that Mateen, who was killed in a shootout with police at about 5 a.m., was an Islamic extremist.

Representative Peter King (R., N.Y.), who chairs the House Homeland Security Committee, says the shooter was “trained in the use of weapons.” As we have noted here many times, military training is generally the key that separates competent terrorists from wannabes. But whether actual or would-be jihadists, these Muslims are motivated by Islamic supremacism, the belief that sharia, Islam’s ancient, totalitarian law, must be imposed on society.

British Preacher Urged Orlando Muslims To Kill Gays

(Liam Quinn’s article direct from The DAILY MAIL UK on 14 June 2016.)

Orlando Muslim terrorist Omar Mateen.

'Let's get rid of them': British Islamic preacher who has called for gays to be 'executed' was giving lectures in Orlando just weeks before nightclub massacre.  Imam Farrokh Sekaleshfar was in Orlando in last March giving public lectures. In videos online Sekaleshfar has said homosexuals should be 'executed'. 49 people were killed when gunman opened fire in Orlando gay nightclub.

An Islamic preacher who has called for gay people to be executed gave sermons in Orlando just weeks before the Pulse nightclub massacre. Farrokh Sekaleshfar - a British-born doctor and Muslim scholar - has gained a following by urging Muslims to 'get rid of' homosexuals.

And in April, he took his speech titled 'How to deal with the phenomenon of homosexuality' to the Husseini Islamic Center in Sanford, just outside Orlando, Florida. Two months later, 29-year-old Omar Mateen carried out the worst massacre in US history by opening fire on a gay club in the same city. Mateen's father has said he believes the attack was motivated by his son's homophobia.

Muslim Man Slaughtered 53 Inside Orlando Gay Club

(Staff news article direct from The BRIEBART on 12 June 2016.)

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — It had been an evening of drinking, dancing and drag shows. After hours of revelry, the party-goers crowding the gay nightclub known as the Pulse took their last sips before the place closed.

That’s when authorities say Omar Mateen emerged, carrying an AR-15 and spraying the helpless crowd with bullets. Witnesses said he fired relentlessly – 20 rounds, 40, then 50 and more. In such tight quarters, the bullets could hardly miss. He shot at police. He took hostages.

When the gunfire finally stopped, 53 people were dead and dozens critically wounded in the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history. Mateen, who authorities said had pledged allegiance to Islamic State in a 911 call shortly before the attack, died in a gun battle with SWAT team members.

Authorities immediately began investigating whether the assault was an act of terrorism and probing the background of Mateen, a 29-year-old American citizen from Fort Pierce, Florida, who had worked as a security guard. The gunman’s father recalled that his son recently got angry when he saw two men kissing in Miami and said that might be related to the assault.

German Girls Covered Up Their Rapes By Rapefugees

(Oliover Jane’s post direct from The BRIEBART on 11 June 2016.)

Politically Correct Schoolgirls Cover Up Their Own Sex Attacks At Hands Of Migrants. Three teenage girls colluded to cover up sex assaults against them because they felt bad for their attackers and didn’t want to see them “discriminated against”.

Pupils at the Herder school in Kassel, Germany have been subjected to months of sexual assault by “much older” Muslim migrant males on their way to and from school, dating back as far as September 2015. The three girls aged between 16 and 18 were repeatedly touched inappropriately and verbally abused, but they refused to report the incidents to the police or their school because the perpetrators were “refugees”.

German newspaper the Hessian Niedersächsische Allgemeine reports the girls realised the “social-political” implications of their reporting their crimes, with the significant amount of press attention swirling around migrant sex assault, leading to them becoming what the paper identified as “paralysed by political correctness”.

English Girl Saved From Her Muslim Father’s FGM

(Claire Ellicott’s article direct from The DAILY MAIL UK on 11 June 2016.)

Rescued in a legal first, a Muslim girl whose father forced her a FGM operation and plotted her forced marriage to a stranger online. The 21-year-old, identified only as Zara, from Wolverhampton (pictured with PC Jody Edwards) feared ending up a slave and was told by her devout father she had to undergo female genital mutilation.

A Muslim whose father plotted to marry her to a stranger online has become the subject of a groundbreaking legal order to protect her from her parents. The 21-year-old feared ending up a slave and was told by her devout father she had to undergo female genital mutilation.

But the student was brave enough to seek help and is now the first recipient of civil court orders saving her from forced marriage and barbaric circumcision. Although both are already offences, the order allows police to stop them taking place at all. Her family faces up to five years in prison if they defy the ruling.

ISIS, Of Course, Has Everything To Do With Islam

(Thomas William’s post direct from BRIEBART on 03 June 2016.)

Muslim BBC Chief Says ‘Of Course’ ISIS and Islam Are Related. Responding to the theory that ISIS has nothing to do with Islam, the head of the BBC religion section told students this week that people need to come to grips with the “uncomfortable” truth that the Islamic State terror group draws its inspiration from the religion of Islam.

Professor Aaqil Ahmed, himself a Muslim scholar and chief of BBC religion, denied the politically correct opinion that ISIS “has nothing to do with Islam” during a speech at before a group of college students at Huddersfield University this past week. “I hear so many people say ISIS has nothing to do with Islam — of course it has. They are not preaching Judaism,” Ahmed noted.

As Breitbart reported earlier this year, more and more scholars and pundits are stepping forward to show that the Islamic State indeed draws its principles from the Qur’an and the writings of Mohammed. A growing consensus suggests that the perpetrators of violent jihad do not represent Muslim “extremism,” but rather reflect a straightforward application of central Islamic principles.
