German-born Pakistani jihadist calls for the murder of all anti-Islamization Pro-NRW party members and journalists in Germany

Yassin Chouka, alias Abu Ibrahim, is believed to be a member of the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan. In a video, he urges fellow Muslims not to attend any more PRO-NRW demonstrations in Germany, but, rather to find out where Pro-RNW members live and work and their typical travel routes. Then kill them, ideally in darkness or early in the morning. 

Islam vs Europe  The German anti-Islam pro-NRW movement recently made headlines with its anti-Islam media competition and demonstrations featuring both the fruits of the competition as well as the classic Danish Mohammed cartoons. Now a jihadist who grew up in the German city of Bonn but now lives in Pakistan has published a video calling for all PRO NRW member to be murdered, as well as the journalists who reported on their demonstrations. 

From the video, Ibrahim says, ”The German media have again collaborated in the crimes. Under the cover of neutral reporting they have again published the Mohammed cartoons. This, too, will not be tolerated by the followers of Mohammed!” ”Der ‘Spiegel’, which is controlled by Jews, and other well-known German media outlets have thus insulted our prophet. Lie in wait for their employees, kill them and give them a lesson they will never forget.”

EXCELLENT! Bulgarians sick of tolerating the most intolerant people on earth – Muslims

Anti-Muslim hatred is growing in Bulgaria. Last year, attacks were staged by angry citizens against Muslims who are sprawled out in the streets, praying and blasting eardrum shattering Islamic Calls to Prayer several times a day.

In the past year, no legislative reforms of judicial actions have been taken to secure Muslims rights. On the contrary, some of the victims are being sued for hooliganism. Ataka supporters attacked Muslim worshipers, shouting provocative slogans and throwing stones.

This type of discrimination is visible everywhere in the Balkans, a Bosnian journalist told Press TV.  Muslims continue to be largely deprived of access to proper education, healthcare, jobs or political representation.  (Good, time to get out of Bulgaria)

Muslims, mostly ethnic Turkish descendants of the Ottoman Empire’s reach into Europe, make up more than 12 percent of Bulgaria’s 7.8 million population, according to official figures.

So much for “Democracy breaking out all over the Middle East,” as Obama likes to say…

“Islam is the solution,” says formerly banned Muslim Brotherhood as it prepares to impose Sharia law on Egypt. Screw the Coptic Christians.

There is no such thing as “Islamic democracy,” says Mohamed Morsi, one of three leading candidates for the presidency of Egypt,  the American-educated engineer who leads the Freedom and Justice Party, the political wing of the Muslim Brotherhood.

As Egypt’s most powerful political movement, controlling half of parliament, winning the presidency would give the Muslim Brotherhood – and Mr. Morsi – sweeping power to control Egypt’s future. A Morsi government would tilt toward a fundamentalist theocracy, reflecting the Muslim Brotherhood slogan – “Islam is the solution.”

COCOS ISLAND: Where tens of millions of Australian tax dollars are paying for Muslims to live in a tropical paradise without working

Cocos Island, a little-known Australian territory that’s closer to Sri Lanka than Canberra, is an island paradise with an idyllic lifestyle that comes at a massive cost to taxpayers. Centrelink doles out $$millions to support the Muslim population, where unemployment is as high as 80%.

AU NEWS  Next financial year, the Federal Government has allocated nearly $53,000 for every person on the islands. All up it is around $37 million to maintain health, education, communication and airline services, and that is on top of a dole bill that runs into the millions each year.

Haji Adams coordinates welfare payment for the 550 odd Muslim population living in the unspoilt paradise that is Australia’s Cocos Keeling Islands. Adams is not only Centrelink’s agent but also Chief Imam, the religious leader of the Muslim community which for nearly three decades has enjoyed  up to 80% unemployment.

Living in paradise comes at a cost and the cost of importing food and freight is high. “At the moment I have a number of customers who really have expressed their concern about the rate of payment from Centrelink. It is not really enough because of the cost of living, so I think it is really difficult,” Adam said.

On Home Island you can’t buy alcohol or cigarettes. There are no pubs and pokies, and peoples’ lives are guided by their Islamic faith, but still governed by Australia Law. And while there aren’t the employment opportunities of those from mainland Australia, there is evidence of Centrelink fraud, and it has raised questions as to whether the welfare payments to the Cocos Island are being properly administered.

There is no work for the dole program, and some of those able to work do so part time to share employment opportunities. But some are still exploiting the system.

41-year-old Azman Arkrie and his five children live in one of the 100 government provided homes on the island. He has been back just over a week from serving two months of a three month sentence in jail in Western Australia for Centrelink fraud. Arkrie claims he was unlucky to have been caught, because he certainly was not acting alone. It was confirmed from various sources across both islands that overpayment of welfare on the island had been rife for years.

Dieter Gerhard has lived on the archipelago’s west island for more than twenty years. He says “Australia has bred a welfare mentality, and it has bred that mentality by basically whatever Home Island, wanted the Government was there writing a big cheque.” Loyd Liest is the only European living outside the settlement on Home Island. “I know the Government has spent a lot of dough trying to re-educate and retrain the people in that, but it hasn’t sort of worked,” he said.

Adam’s bosses at Centrelink in Canberra refused to talk to Today Tonight on camera. Despite having an employee on the island they say they are unable to confirm how many investigations are ongoing into the misappropriation or overpayment of Australian taxpayer funds.

GERMANY considering ban on extremist Muslim group after violent clashes with police over Right Wing party’s Mohammed cartoons

Germany may invoke a legal ban on radical Salafist Muslim groups, after violent clashes with the police over a Mohammed cartoon campaign put out by the right wing, anti-Islamization Pro NRW party.

Chicago Tribune  Last weekend, Salafists turned on police protecting anti-Islam protesters during a regional election rally in the western German city of Bonn, injuring 29 officers, two of them seriously. Police arrested 109 people.

The pro-NRW protesters had infuriated the Salafists by waving banners showing cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad.

There have been similar clashes in other German towns in the past week, including in Cologne, where around 1,000 police were mobilized on Tuesday to keep Salafists and anti-Islam activists far apart.

“We will use all the possibilities at the disposal of a constitutional state to oppose them (violent Salafists) wherever they fight against… our constitutional order,” Interior Minister Hans-Peter Friedrich told n-tv television.

“Germany will not allow anybody to impose religious wars on us, neither radical Salafists nor far-right parties such as the Pro NRW,” he said, referring to the ultra-nationalist that clashed with the Salafists in Bonn.

An interior ministry spokesman confirmed to Reuters that the government was examining the possibility of a ban on Salafist groups. “However, there is nothing official yet,” he added. Friedrich said Germany was home to some 4,000 Salafists, not all of whom were violent. 

“Without question the Salafists are ideologically close to al Qaeda,” the minister told the Rheinische Post in a separate interview. “They have the clear political goal to destroy our liberal democracy. We will not allow them to do that.”

Salafists, whose roots are in Saudi Arabia, recently stirred unease with a campaign to hand out free copies of the Koran around the country, prompting conservative lawmaker Volker Kauder, a close ally of Chancellor Angela Merkel, to say Islam was not “part of our tradition and identity in Germany”.

LITTLE SALAFIST TERRORISTS IN TRAINING

Security experts have warned that German language Islamist propaganda is fuelling militancy among socially alienated Muslim youths in Germany. But despite the prominence of Germany in the saga of al Qaeda due to Hamburg’s role as a base for three of the September 11 suicide airline hijackers, its indigenous militant scene is much smaller than that in Britain or France, the experts say.

LA TIMES  On Saturday, 29 police officers were injured, including two with serious knife wounds, and 109 Salafi Islamists were arrested in the former West German capital of Bonn after members of Pro NRW provoked the Salafists with mocking cartoons of the prophet Muhammad.

On Monday, Pro NRW held smaller rallies in three other cities in North Rhine-Westphalia.

“We will not tolerate these attacks on the constitutional state and our police officers and will increase our pressure on both Pro NRW and the Salafists as much as possible,” North Rhine-Westphalia’s governor, Hannelore Kraft, told the newspaper Bild. “That means denying entry to Salafists who are known to be violent, as well as preventing Pro NRW from showing any more anti-Islamic cartoons.” 

Salafism is a movement within Sunni Islam that advocates a return to an earlier form of Islam. German intelligence service has said that nearly all violent jihadists in Germany have had prior contact with Salafists. 

Authorities have forbidden more than 100 Salafists from entering Cologne and have said they won’t allow Pro NRW to demonstrate near the mosque. But efforts to prevent Pro NRW from using offensive images were complicated by two court rulings Monday that displaying cartoons of Muhammad was protected free speech.

“We will allow peaceful protest against the campaign event,” Cologne’s police chief, Michael Temme, said on Tuesday. But, he warned, “we will swiftly and systematically oppose any form of violence.”

MUSLIM Suicide bombers kill 12, wound 110 in Dagestan, Russia

In yet another Islam-inspired terror attack on Russia, Muslim suicide bombers killed attacked a police post on the outskirts of the capital of Russia’s Dagestan region, known for its large Muslim infestation.

MSNBC  The attacks outside Makhachkala late Thursday were the deadliest in months, undermining efforts by Russian security forces to contain an Islamist insurgency in the North Caucasus region near Sochi, where Russia will host the Winter Olympics in 2014. 

More than a decade after federal troops toppled an Islamist government in Chechnya, also in the North Caucasus, security forces are fighting militants whose ranks are swollen by anger at poverty, clan feuds and pervasive corruption. 

The first suicide bomber detonated a bomb when police stopped a vehicle to check documents. The second explosion came when fire brigades and ambulances arrived, causing additional casualties.  A witness at the scene said a fire truck was reduced to charred wreckage.

 ”After the blast, only the wheels of the truck remained whole,” the witness told reporters. ”Fragments of human bodies are scattered at the post,” Russia’s Interfax news agency quoted a law enforcement official as saying. Local investigators said they had found the remains of a man and a woman suspected of being the suicide bombers. 

The attacks fell just three days before Vladimir Putin, who sent troops 12 years ago to crush rebellion in Chechnya, is to be sworn in as president.  An unofficial Islamist website, kavkazcenter.com, said the police post was almost completely destroyed. A nearby gas pipeline also was damaged during the attack, RIA news agency reported. 

Dagestan faces near daily shootings and bombings blamed on Islamist rebels. It has become the epicenter of violence in the low-level insurgency across the mainly Muslim North Caucasus following two separatist wars in Chechnya. 

The insurgents want to create an Islamic state in the region. They have said they were behind a suicide bombing at Moscow’s Domodedovo airport that killed 37 people in January 2011 and twin bombings that killed 40 people on Moscow’s metro in 2010.

Is sabotaging lettuce considered halal?

A Moroccan MUSLIM immigrant in Spain has been sabotaging his employer’s exports by concealing broken glass in shipments of lettuce. The Civil Guard in the Murcia region arrested a worker at a food company on suspicion of a crime against public health for introducing fragments of broken glass in boxes of lettuces intended for export.

Gates of Vienna (H/T Martin & Maria)  The investigation began early last March, when an exporter of agricultural products from the Murcia region received a warning from their overseas customers about finding shipments of lettuces with fragments of broken glass inside, having noticed this fact just before distributing the lettuces to the final consumers.

After ruling out diverse assumptions about an alleged ‘contamination’ of the exported products, authorities established a line of research focused on the presumed responsibility of the people close to the company, more specifically to the production line, beginning to study the traceability of each shipment affected.

According to this hypothesis, sources from the Civil Guard informed that the alleged perpetrator could have introduced the pieces of broken glass in the boxes during the process of harvest, between the cutting of the vegetables on the field and its subsequent transfer to the processing compound.

After a quick investigation, the police agents determined the relationship of one of the workers of the company, who had been working in harvesting and storing for 12 years, with the above-mentioned facts.

Once all necessary evidence was collected, measures were taken last Wednesday (April 25) to localize, arrest and subsequently take into custody a person under suspicion of the criminal acts already investigated.

The severity of the events resulted in the loss of the shipments which were already at their destination, both those in transit and those who were waiting to be carried away by the buyers after the companies concerned suspended the shipment. The losses hitting the agricultural company have reached the amount of €200,000 euros so far.

Similar incidents occurred in the company back in 2007, but at that time the suspects could not be identified.

This research resulted in the arrest of a person identified as E.H., Moroccan, 49, who lives in Torre Pacheco, under suspicion of crimes against public health, who has already a police record of similar acts committed previously.

FINALLY! Lockerbie Bomber on his death bed

Three years overdue, but, hey, better late than never.

The Blaze  The former Libyan intelligence officer convicted in the 1988 Lockerbie plane bombing was taken to hospital on Saturday for a blood transfusion with his health deteriorating, his family says.

The son of Abdel Baset al-Megrahi, Khaled, said his father was carried to Tripoli Medical Center for the second time in two days.

“My dad’s health is very bad and has been worsening,” Khaled told The Associated Press at the family house in Tripoli. “He is on his last breath,” he added.

Abdel Baset al-Megrahi

Al-Megrahi is the only person convicted for the bombing over Lockerbie, Scotland, that killed 270 people. He was released from a Scottish prison on humanitarian grounds in 2009, eight years into a life sentence. Doctors then predicted that he would die of prostate cancer within three months.

His release infuriated victims‘ families and their anger grew when he was given a hero’s reception in Libya and then lived long past the predictions of the doctors.

Over the past three years, his family has on several occasions said that al-Megrahi is near death, in what was seen as an attempt to justify his release. “I don’t think he can make it this time,” his son said Saturday.

Awwwww, Muslim leader of banned Islamic Cultural Center stabbed to death in Moscow

Metin Mekhtiev, 33, the former head of the international department of the banned Islamic Cultural Center, was found dead with stab wounds on the neck and face near central Moscow’s Belorussky train terminal early Tuesday.

RIAN (H/T King Lear Bear)  Abdul Waheed Niyazov, an advisor to the Russian Mufti Council head, slammed the murder as “brutal, barbaric and medieval” (Very Muslim-like). He dismissed earlier media reports that Mekhtiev was an Azerbaijani national.

Niyazov quoted witness reports as saying Mekhtiev had been attacked by a group of five young people, including a woman, as he was returning home from a supermarket. “They hit him in the head with a heavy object and then cut his throat,” Niyazov said.

The Islamic Cultural Center, one of the oldest Islamic groups in Russia, was created in 1991 with the support of Saudi Arabia. The group was outlawed by the Russian Supreme Court in May 2011 at the request of the Russian Justice Ministry over what it described as multiple violations by the Center of Russian laws regulating the operation of public organizations.

Niyazov said he believed Mekhtiev’s murder was an ethnic one, a claim challenged by the Investigative Committee, which suggested it was rather perpetrated by robbers, citing the fact that Mekhtiev was robbed of his cellphone, some $200 and the keys to his apartment.

Russia has seen a dramatic rise in (anti-Muslim) nationalist sentiments since the break-up of the Soviet Union. Racial violence led to the deaths of 21 people of “non-Slavic appearance” in 2011, a decline from 42 in 2010, according to the Sova organization, which monitors race-hate (Islam is not a race) attacks in Russia.

FRANCE: Another Muslim Terrorist Wanna-Be frightens Paris Metro riders

Brandishing a Colt .45 gun and shouting, “I am Mohamed Merah and I am going to kill you,” a Muslim man of Moroccan origin, was arrested for threatening passengers on the Paris Metro.

RFI (H/T Martin)  Police in Paris on Friday arrested a man who took out a pistol and threatened commuters on one of the capital’s busiest Metro lines, ligne 13. The 30-year-old unidentified man of Moroccan origin, was detained by police mid-morning between Metro stations Saint-Denis Basilique andUniversité.

According to an official source, he pulled out a Colt 45 and began to threaten a passenger saying “I am Mohamed Merah and I am going to kill you “ in reference to the young Islamist killed by police in Toulouse three weeks ago after the murder of seven people.

The gun did not appear to be loaded, but the man was carrying two rounds of ammunition and was described as “not being in full possession of his mental faculties”.

Disaster was avoided when one of the passengers pulled the emergency cord and the man used the opportunity to escape into a train tunnel where he was eventually caught by police.

FRANCE: Crazy inbreds blame Sarkozy for not allowing Muslim Mass Murderer Mohammed Merah to be buried in Algeria

Apparently, nobody told them that it was the Algerian town mayor who refused to allow Merah to be buried there. Watch the sheikh and Ali Belhadj, former VP of the Algerian FIS, start foaming at the mouth, blaming Sarkozy, ‘the Jewish pig,’ for denying the killer burial in Algeria. To top it off, two of the inbreds tear up their French passports, much to the delight of the other Muslim lunatics.

No wonder Marine Le Pen wants to put an end to non-Europeans holding dual nationalities.

Marine Le Pen says Sarkozy’s ‘crackdown’ on Muslim terrorists is a pre-election stunt

Marine Le Pen, the National Front candidate for the French presidential election, accused rival President Nicolas Sarkozy of electoral agitation from his sudden decision to arrest a handful of known Muslim terrorists on French soil, following the slaughter of seven people by Muslim terrorist, Mohamed Merah, who was killed by French police last month.

JPOST  Merah, an Algerian born in France who was killed after the 30-hour standoff outside his home, murdered seven people in three separate terror attacks last month, including a rabbi and three Jewish children.

Le Pen was speaking at a press conference with foreign journalists in her campaign headquarters at Nanterre, west of Paris. She lamented to representatives of newspapers from around the world that “we no longer speak at all of the crisis, [but] of electoral fables.”

Responding to a question from The Jerusalem Post, following the surprising absence of mentions in electoral debates of the shootings in the southern French town of Toulouse, Le Pen criticized Sarkozy, calling his crackdown on Islamists “merely electoral agitation after the Merah affair.”

“A few arrested Islamists and that is all… [Sarkozy] is not dealing with the real problem of fundamentalism, although he has been in charge of national security for the past 10 years.”

For Le Pen, Sarkozy, like his predecessors, “deliberately downplayed the threat from Islamists who want to see France as we know it disappear in favor of Shari’a.”

Muslims arrogantly ignore the burqa ban imposed by France

Going further, she accused her main rival for the voice of the right wing to have even “opened the door to the UOIF (militant Muslim organization in France) who called for the murder of Jews.” “He provided the first steps to the ladder for the fundamentalists in France and internationally,” she said.

The right wing candidate also deplored the European intervention in Libya last year, at the initiative of France, which helped dethrone former leader Muammar Gaddafi.

Muslims also ignore the street prayer ban imposed by France

“In Libya, we gave the power to jihadists who have established Shari’a law within a few hours,” she said.

“A convinced euroskeptic,” and “sworn enemy of the euro as a single currency,” Le Pen criticized Sarkozy as one of those “those who sell us the idea that the euro zone would be a doublelocked prison with no key.”

If elected, Le Pen said she plans to close the door of her country not only to globalization but also – and especially – to mass immigration.

“I will cancel the regularization of illegal immigrants and I will reduce the number of visas to 10,000 a year to accommodate artists, sportsmen and research talent, instead of the 203,000 allocated each year,” she said.
