The Russian and Chinese embrace of indicted traitor Edward Snowden is just the latest demonstration of the contempt in which the US is held by an ever increasing number of adversarial states around the world.

Obama has two ideas that inform his Middle East policy. First, the Muslim Brotherhood is good. And so his policy is to support the Muslim Brotherhood, everywhere. That's his idea, and as long as the US continues to support the Brotherhood, its foreign policy is successful. For Obama it doesn't matter whether the policy is harmful to US national security. It doesn't matter if the Brotherhood slaughters Christians and Shi'ites and persecutes women and girls. It doesn't matter if the Brotherhood's governing incompetence transforms Egypt - and Tunisia, and Libya and etc., into hell on earth. As far as Obama is concerned, as long as he is true to his idea, his foreign policy is a success.

AFTER THE September 11 attacks, the US pledged to wage a war of ideas in the Muslim world. And in Obama's foreign policy, we have such a war of ideas.

The only problem is that all of his ideas are wrong.

Excellent piece. What the hell happened to Obama?

Most Egyptians have today come to the realization that the Muslim Brotherhood's hijacking of their country's pro-democracy revolution two years ago was not a good thing.

Next Sunday, June 30th, they might just set things straight when the burgeoning "Tamarud" (Rebels) presents its 15 million-strong petition demanding the resignation of President Mohammed Morsi.

June 30 is the one year anniversary of Morsi and his Muslim Brotherhood's rise to power, and the Tamarud have said enough is enough. In fact, the 15 million signatures collected by the group outstrips the 13 million votes Morsi received in the last election, and even then he had to resort to fraud, according to Ramelah.

The hope of the Tamarud is that Morsi will step down and that the courts will establish a constitutional assembly to manage the nation until fresh parliamentary and presidential elections can be held, in that order.

Of course, no one expects things to go so smoothly.

President Morsi’s attempts to push through a Sharia constitution go against Egyptian cultural tradition and spark an even worse uprising as people don’t want religion to be dictated, political analyst and author William Engdahl told RT.

RT: Despite Morsi having strong support in the country, why is there so much anger at him and the Muslim Brotherhood at present?

William Engdahl: I think a number of issues. Number one – is trying to ram a Sharia constitution down the throats of the Egyptian people. That goes against Egyptian cultural tradition – 80-90 per cent of the population are Sunni Muslims – but it is a tradition of tolerance for other religion groups, Coptic and other Islamic groups. The other thing is the economy. Morsi has done nothing to improve the economy. In fact the economy has generated youth unemployment to bulge to an explosive level. That I think is a lot to do with the tinderbox that you see in the streets right now. But the other thing is that the military hasn’t yet weighed in as to whether they are going to continue to back Morsi as they have done under enormous Washington pressure – they are dependent on Washington for military aid and have been for decades. But the interesting new factor is that the Tamarod campaign – the reorganized opposition group that led the protest a year ago in Tahrir Square and elsewhere – they have claimed to have gathered a 15 million-strong petition asking for Morsi to step down. I think this is a make or break situation. The Obama administration continues to back the Muslim Brotherhood, which is a very unfortunate thing, but that’s a part of a larger geopolitical agenda that Washington and the State Department have built up over the past years.

Whenever there is a public disagreement, it's always good to observe which side is calling for open discussion, and which side is trying to shut it down. This is a good initial indicator of where the evidence lies.

“Geert Wilders' Freedom Party asks Dutch government to stand for freedom of speech, protest UK ban of Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer„

The British government shows itself once again to be made up of Islamophiles by objecting to speech by critics of Islam. It shows the weak knees it showed in 2009 when turning down Geert Wilders for entry into England; this time, the U.S. critics of Islam Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer are banned.

"It seems that the British government has a short memory," says PVV MP Raymond de Roon, "forgetting that Geert Wilders made an English court drop that entry ban a few months later." De Roon asked the Foreign Minister to stand for the human right of free speech and to protest to the British government about this entry ban.

Through the operations conducted by the jihadists, Islamists as well as Assad’s regime, the conflict in Syria has increasingly taken sectarian elements; people – particularly minorities – are being slaughtered based solely on their religion.

Recently, the Obama administration – after the Syrian conflict entered its third year and long after critical world powers have taken decisive action – has decided to make a policy decision to arm the Syrian rebels.

“Allah Akbar, Allah Akbar, Allah Akbar.” This chant, meaning “God is great” in Arabic, is repeatedly heard in this barbaric and savage video clip (below). Amidst a crowd of men standing on a small hill, while women and children watch behind, are three kneeling men – supposedly supporters of Assad’s regime – who are beheaded by a large knife. In the background, someone exclaims, “This is the punishment of the Shabiha.” Sabiha, a militia group, has been unleashed by Assad’s regime as a tool for cracking down and suppressing his opposition. After the gruesome beheading, in which one of the detached heads falls to the side, another rebel yells, “Place the head of that dog straight.” In Middle Eastern Muslim culture, calling someone a dog is considered a grave insult. The beheading by the Islamists, who appear to be imported from another country and are supposedly connected to the Jabhat Al-Nusra front, is a reference to Islamic Sharia law.

“...Anjem Choudary, philosophical mentor of the Woolwich head hackers anda man who calls for the murder of the Prime Minister, is so “conducive to the public good” that British taxpayers subsidize him generously and provide a half-million-dollar home for him to live on.„

Three snapshots of western liberty:

1) A few weeks ago, I wrote about a Canadian police department’s diversity enforcer attempt to shut down a Pamela Geller speech by getting her bounced from a Toronto synagogue. In Britain, the shut-up-he-explained crowd cut to the chase: They went to the (supposedly Conservative) Home Secretary, the ghastly Theresa May, and got Miss Geller and Robert Spencer banned from the entire country on the grounds that their presence in the United Kingdom would not be “conducive to the public good“.

Delta Airlines' motto 'You'll love the way we fly'... unless you are Jews or Bible carrying Catholics or anyone with an Israeli entry stamp in his/her passport.

Delta, a major world class carrier, has partnered with Saudi Arabia Airlines and as a result must adhere to the bigoted and biased prejudices of a backward nation that still does not permit women to drive a car.

A spokesman for Delta says that the airline does not discriminate but must adhere to the requirements of the nations into which they are flying.

According to its agreement with Saudi Airlines, Delta will have to ask passengers on the way to Riyadh if they are carrying any non-Muslim religious articles.

Bombs and hatchets are hand luggage friendly according to Delta's 'Slaughter of Infidels' policy.

But all Jooz are strictly verboten, even those smuggling bombs or pork crackling.

A 30-count indictment was entered against Dzokhar Tsarnaev. Charges against him, including the use of weapons of mass destruction, carry the death penalty. Blood-scrawled confessions were found in the boat in which he hid.

Digging only a tad deeper we’ll find that Islam inspired them all.

In the months following the dramatic arrest of 19 year old Dzokhar Tsarnaev, the younger of the two Tsarnaev brothers who were identified in photographs released by the FBI on April 18 as the apparent perpetrators of the Boston Marathon bombings, fan clubs, websites and slogans insisting that “Dzokhar was innocent” popped up. Right.

The older Tsarnaev brother, Tamerlan, died as the two attempted to escape in the early morning hours of April 19.

Why is Islam part of the syllabus in our primary and secondary school curriculum?
Why is Islam getting preferential treatment that no other religion gets?
And why are we promoting a cruel culture which has nothing but contempt for our culture and democracy?

Is anyone else asking these questions in those other moderate Islamic countries like the United Kingdom or Sweden?

Mypeace organisation launches TV commercial to improve image of Islam in Australia

MUSLIM activists will launch the first TV commercial in Australia about the Prophet Mohammed in a bid to improve the religion's battered image.

The Islamic community has raised a war chest of "tens of thousands" of dollars to fund a series of 30-second commercials, due to air on the main television networks from July 9.

They are the brainchild of the Mypeace organisation, based at Bankstown, which is attempting to build bridges between the Muslim community and other Australians.

The prime-time ads, set to appear on Channels 7, 9, and 10, and SBS over several months, feature major figures of history including Mahatma Gandhi and George Bernard Shaw extolling the virtues of the Prophet Mohammed.

Mypeace founder Diaa Mohamed yesterday said negotiations with the TV networks were being finalised for the commercials to run in breakfast, afternoon and evening timeslots.

"This is a response to misinformation - not many (Australians) are aware of who the Prophet is and why we regard him so highly and so emotionally," Mr Mohamed said.

MORE than 100 extremists capable of violent radicalism are entrenched in western Sydney, a Muslim cleric claimed last night.

A western Sydney imam has revealed his losing battle turning young Muslim extremists back from the brink of terrorism.

Imam Afroz left the federal government-backed National Imam's Consultative Forum in April in no doubt how worried Australia should be about the young radicals.

"We have had a program for the last seven years now in which we have had 240 people who were considered to be moving in a direction which may have led them to violent radicalisation - to terrorism," Imam Afroz told the national forum.

Mogadishu — Al-Shabaab in recent weeks has kidnapped hundreds of children from the militant-controlled town of El Bur in Galgadud, residents say, expressing fear that the al-Qaeda-affiliated group is forcibly recruiting them as child soldiers.

Since early May, more than 350 children under the age of 16 have been taken from Qur'an schools or while playing in the streets of El Bur and surrounding areas, said town elder Jama Hassan, 54.

"It is something that has terrified all of us," Hassan told Sabahi. "If al-Shabaab has become weak it should not use children who do not know how to use arms to shore up its strength."

Amid the wave of abductions, teachers and students have fled at least 18 Qur'an schools in the area due to al-Shabaab's reputation for recruiting children, Hassan said, calling on the federal government to intervene.

"The government is responsible for the public and has to come up with a plan to protect citizens who are suffering so they can have peace," he said.

Al-Shabaab is known for forcing children into its ranks of armed fighters. In January 2012, the Somali Transitional Federal Government and human rights groups reported that al-Shabaab was recruiting child soldiers systematically and by force.

“In a striking blow against freedom, the British government has banned us from entering the country. Muhammad al-Arifi, who has advocated Jew-hatred, wife-beating, and jihad violence, entered the U.K. recently with no difficulty. In not allowing us into the country solely because of our true and accurate statements about Islam, the British government is behaving like a de facto Islamic state. The nation that gave the world the Magna Carta is dead. „

Imagine: The country of the Magna Carta Libertatum, or the Great Charter of the Liberties of England, would consider banning two human rights activists whose body of work is founded on the freedom of speech, freedom of conscience and individual rights. The Magna Carta led to the rule of constitutional law. It was the model for the legal structure of the American colonies.

It's over,the British have capitulated. They fought and died for in World War II and decades later in Afghanistan and Iraq for their freedom. And they have now given it away. The British are on a jihad against freedom.

The US is right behind. Today the FBI has pulled a 'most wanted terrorist' ad because ...they're all Muslims, after some people complained that they stereotyped Muslims. Can you guess why?

The West has lost the plot and I may as well throw the towel in too.
The public has no idea how dire this situation is.

Saying 'I told you so' to my children and grandchildren will give me no pleasure, but I console myself with the notion that half the people are more stupid than the average stupid person. Yet despite that, I tried my best.

My family, friends, countrymen... didn't give a damn when I warned them.

I am pessimistic and I am right to be. This world, as we know it, is coming to an end... and faster than any of us thought possible. Within a generation most of the West will have capitulated to Islam and soon thereafter, Freedom as we know it, will be as relevant as the Dodo.

A visit to the U.K. by my colleague Robert Spencer and I to pay our respects to victims of jihad on Armed Forces Day has turned into an international incident. And why?

Because there is an unspoken adherence to the Shariah descending over the West. As I noted in my Monday column, Robert Spencer and I are scheduled to join other members of the President’s Council of the international human rights coalition Stop Islamization of Nations (SION) – the English Defence League leaders Tommy Robinson and Kevin Carroll and Stop Islamisation of Europe (SIOE) leader Anders Gravers – on June 29 for a Memorial for Lee Rigby in Woolwich. Rigby was the British soldier who was beheaded by Islamic jihadists in Woolwich on May 22.

National Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Children released shocking statistics that showed 1,700 victims in the past two years.

It has been revealed 640 females have been treated at a Birmingham hospital for genital mutilation. Heartlands Hospital, in Bordesley Green, is a specialist centre in the UK and treats victims of cruel ritual.

National Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Children released shocking statistics that showed 1,700 victims in the past two years. Out of those, 40% were from the West Midlands area.

The charity has launched a helpline in a bid to prevent children from undergoing the oppressive genital mutilation. Female genital mutilation is usually practiced by the African, Asian and Middle Eastern communities in the UK.

“It is now official. Yesterday the UK government and the Home Office officially took one giant step closer to dhimmitude and shamed the UK’s glorious democratic tradition „

It is now official. Yesterday the UK government and the Home Office officially took one giant step closer to dhimmitude and shamed the UK’s glorious democratic tradition by banning Robert Spencer, from Jihad Watch, and Pamela Geller of Atlas Shrugs from entering the UK to pay their respects to the memory of Drummer Rigby in Woolwich, London, and to address a meeting there.

The extreme right-wing group English Defence League (EDL) has invited two fascists to speak in Woolwich this weekend – at the site of the brutal murder of Drummer Lee Rigby.

Here are some words and phrases used by the ignorant Manchester Gazette Chief editor, to describe Spencer and Geller, both of whom KNOW just about everything there is to know about the evil of Islam...

fascists, notorious condemned hate preachers, propagate hatred, these people are martyrs, extraordinary situation, sprout hatred, jeopardise liberty, long track record of preaching hate, denying Bosnian genocide, believing Obama is a Muslim, children murdered by Anders Breivik not innocent, stir up hatred, incite violence,

This editor and his ilk will go down in history as gutless cowards who capitulated to Islam and handed our country over to the Muslims on a platter. None of these dhimmis KNOW anything about the evil in the Koran and the vile hatred preached by Muslims every day of their lives.

The purveyor of the greatest anti-women and anti-child hate ideology ever conceived was a 7th century murderous killer, misogynist and paedophile who claimed he could channel messages from God. He could only have been a madman who thought he was a prophet of god, or a psychopathic shyster who was well aware that simple minded peasants (and editors of the looney left media), who still today, believe the earth is flat and drink camel piss as a medicinal, would believe anything. No God could have come up with a religion that is so diabolically evil unless that God was the devil himself.

An evil manipulative psychopath named Muhammad lived 1,400 years ago. That madman incited these ignorant and backward Muslims into a perpetual war and conquest against all those who are not Muslims. In other words, he wasn't prepared to keep his evil empire confined only to those subscribing to his death cult, he elected to spread his toxic ideas to everyone. His ideological black plague infected the entire human race.

My letter to the person who claims to be the Manchester Gazette editor:

Mr Editor... firstly my sympathy for your self-inflicted brain injury and major brainfart. Being the Chief editor of this rag must be a pressure job.

You are a LIAR. Your entire editorial is riddled with exaggerated lies for the consumption of your Muslim cronies.

Sadly, you don't yet realise that your own children will curse you for your cowardice and for handing your culture and your country and their inheritance to the Islamists.

You and your suicidal lefty liberals capitulated to Islam a long time ago. You are your own citizens' worst enemy, fighting Islam's racial and cultural war against civilised humanity on behalf of your Muslim masters.

Islam is so far outside the realm of all human intellectual rationality and reason, so diabolically evil that no normal person can comprehend such a credo is even possible on this planet. But your mind is too fried to understand the immorality and irrationality of that dangerous ideology which will malevolently affect the lives of your children forever.

The salafist man finds it unbelievable that there are people who do not believe the same way he does. He considers this difference as a personal attack. He is astonished that the whole world is not Muslim and he is going to correct [this mistake].

It is not going to stop, [instead] it keeps on reproducing itself in the cities of the Sahara, it becomes vocal and shouts, then kills, taking you by the throat; it destroys giant Buddhas and [people's] bodies and advances like a desert that dries out even the desert itself: salafism/Islamism/fundamentalism, the cancer on the face of the world and on the will to live.

All this no longer obeys the ancient forms of the threat: it is no longer a brigade, a group or a front, but a sort of tumor: it may swell under your armpit or on the streets of London. It kills; we then arrest the killer, but we do not stop the disease. We kill the hostage taker, but not the malignant cell. And it has a banner, a sort of skein of darkness, that is waved in the dry and dead wind of a theological infinity. It is everywhere and it is like barbed wire running over your bare skin. Everywhere, as the living dead himself explains: "It is Allah who says that Sharia should be implemented." And "in Islam there is no democracy, for that would mean that people have the right to challenge Allah and to decide in His stead. This is inadmissible and one will not allow this heresy, may God protect us."
