Belgium’s Dutch-speaking second-largest city now has a Muslim component of over 45%; almost double the number of Catholic pupils. In response to a request for information by the nationalist Vlaams Belang party, Education Alderman Robert Voorhamme disclosed that, of the 10,743 students in the Antwerp municipal primary schools system, just under half chose Islamic studies. “This is 45.5 percent or an increase of just under twelve percent compared to the 2007-2008 school year”, said Voorhamme – and demonstrates the rapid Islamisation of the city. Voorhamme also said that the figures ‘reflected the evolution of the population’. Except, of course, that it is no evolution. The mass immigration of Muslims into Europe amounts to little more than the deliberate importation of voters by the political élites and the multiculturalist lobby; usually under the spurious premise of ‘diversity’, or claims of them being necessary to counter ageing population demographics. The biggest supporters and exponents of this immigration are usually on the left – the fact that most immigrants tend to vote for the parties that promise the most in state benefits is no coincidence here. But the leftists’ political gerrymandering may have grave consequences for the rest of us. As we have pointed out in the past, if Muslim immigration and the associated establishment of closed, self-segregating third-world communities within developed countries continues to grow at the current trend rates, community relations – already tense in some parts of Britain and Germany and worse across large swathes of France, Benelux and Scandinavia – could reach breaking point. This unprecedented influx has brought with it other ‘benefits’, too – Islamic terrorism, anti-Semitism, sexual grooming gangs, ‘honour killings’, substantial increases in the incidence of rape and the organised drug gangs which tend to proliferate wherever large Muslim populations flourish. If we in Europe wish to keep our identities and way of life – not to mention our superior (yes, superior) cultures based on democracy, the work ethic, Judaeo-Christian principles, secularism and the rule of law; we seriously need to wake up and start sending unambiguous signals to our elected politicians. With half of primary schoolchildren in Antwerp Muslim already – it can only be a year or two more before they become the majority. Wed, 01 Jun 2011 08:52:37 -0700 RSSPECT-001322105 http://www.infideltaskforce.com/ As the world is subjected to a hail of propaganda from Arabs regarding the 1948 “disaster” inflicted upon them by the creation of the state of Israel, Arab press watchdog MEMRI has released a video that places the Arab claims in perspective. In the video, a 92-year-old Arab woman, originally from Hevron, glowingly recalls on Hamas-Gaza TV how the Arabs of Hevron, including her father, without provocation, massacred the peaceful Jewish neighbors they had lived beside for years in 1929 – almost 20 years before the 1948 War of Independence. Needless to say, there was no State of Israel then, no IDF, no "occupation" etc. --------------------------------- In an orgy of sadistic violence on August 24, 1929, 67 of Hevron's Jews were murdered. The Arabs murdered children in front of their parents, severed limbs, raped and burned people alive. The British High Commissioner in the Land of Israel, Sir John Chancellor, published a statement following the massacre, saying, I have learned with horror of the atrocious acts committed by bodies of ruthless and bloodthirsty evil-doers, of savage murders perpetrated upon defenseless members of the Jewish population regardless of age or sex, accompanied as at Hebron, by acts of unspeakable savagery, of the burning of farms and houses in town and country and of the looting and destruction of property. These crimes have brought upon their authors the execration of all civilized peoples throughout the world. Photos of the victims of the massacre, which eventually led to the evacuation of all Jews from Hevron, until their return in 1967 have been posted on the Infidel Task Force home page for your viewing. Wed, 18 May 2011 08:00:49 -0700 RSSPECT-001307421 http://www.infideltaskforce.com/ This time, however, the invaders weren’t armed forces. Nonetheless, they did not come in peace, and their attempt to enter Israel was no less an act of war than the invasions of 1967 and 1973, and the rockets that jihadists regularly shoot into Israel from Gaza. Thousands of Palestinian Arabs tried to enter the country from Lebanon, Syria, Gaza and Judea and Samaria. Their declared intention – announced weeks ago on Facebook – was to return to the lands from which they had been expelled in 1948. The Facebook page made clear the sinister intentions of Sunday’s action: it was entitled “Third Palestinian Intifada,” and after it posted numerous calls for violence against Israel, Facebook took it down – after it had gained 350,000 members. “The leaders of these violent demonstrations,” explained Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, “their struggle is not over the 1967 borders but over the very existence of Israel, which they describe as a catastrophe that must be resolved. It is important that we look with open eyes at the reality and be aware of whom we are dealing with and what we are dealing with.” Indeed. And what they are dealing with is precisely what has been obscured, ignored, and denied, by Western governments and the mainstream media, for decades now. The Obama administration is just the latest U.S. administration to assume that Israel’s enemies can be negotiated with and placated with some agreement. The fact that every such compromise has failed never shakes this core belief, or leads policy analysts to realize that Israel is dealing with an unappeasable jihadist enemy. No state has ever successfully reached a negotiated settlement with a jihadist enemy who avows a religious obligation to destroy it. So why is Israel constantly expected to be the first? Barack Obama and virtually everyone else in power in America and Europe assume that the violent demonstrators who breached Israel’s borders on Sunday will ultimately be pacified once a Palestinian state is set up. Yet as Hamas is now merging with the “moderates” of Fatah with whom Obama and others have been dealing, it is useful to recall that the Hamas Charter of August 1988 declares that “nothing is loftier or deeper in nationalism than waging Jihad against the enemy and confronting him when he sets foot on the land of the Muslims.” When will this Jihad end? The Hamas Charter quotes Hasan al-Banna, the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood: “Israel will rise and will remain erect until Islam eliminates it as it had eliminated its predecessors.” Mon, 16 May 2011 16:22:41 -0700 RSSPECT-001305515 http://www.infideltaskforce.com/ In our present day culture, we have been taught (usually at mother's knee) that “sticks and stones may break your bones but names can never harm you.” Annoying as it is to have people call you names, it does not warrant punching them in the face. But this is not so elsewhere, not did it used to be so in our own civilization's past. What we are talking about here is “the honor culture.” Until the middle of the 19th century, gentlemen fought duels of honor. That by seriously wounding or killing an opponent who had either said something unpleasant about you or dishonored you (by seducing your wife), you were obliged to engage in a duel. That went out of style here-although one notorious duel was fought in our own history-that of Aaron Burr and Alexander Hamilton. Hamilton died and Burr became an outlaw. The Sicilian mafia, a holdover from a medieval past, has always been an honor society that punished disloyalty, above all sins, with death. A disloyal wife, along with disloyal colleagues, were so dispatched. In today's world, the only “honor cultures” left are in the Muslim world. A man's honor, they tell us, rests in the women he “possesses,” wives, daughters, concubines, and even mothers. Should any of these women step out of line in their sexual behavior (even though falsely accused of this-or even as the victim of a male in the household), the men's honor is lost until the woman is murdered. In Muslim-majority countries, for the most part, the murderer of a woman for such purpose is lightly punished by the courts, if at all. We only care about this when such an honor culture moves among us, such as the case of the outraged Muslim radio executive who decapitated his wife because she “dishonored him” by wanting a divorce, or the Texas taxi driver who murdered his college girl daughters whose “American ways” besmirched his “honor.” Europe has also been so awash in “honor killings” that they are finally starting to address. So, how does the Muslim world feel about “sticks and stones?” We have seen the Afghan response to the stupid actions of an American pastor in Florida who held the Koran on trial, found it wanting, and “executed” it by burning it. A very stupid act, we would all agree, but one defended by our freedom of speech-even when obnoxious. He also said Islam is not a religion of peace, which outraged “peaceful” Muslims in Afghanistan. They proved him right. The Afghans considered this insult to their honor sufficient to go on a rampage of murder, slaughtering any UN officials they could find. To them, a book burning warrants human deaths. One might also wonder how the honor of Pakistani fanatics was redeemed by blowing up a shrine of another Muslim sect, Sufis, and killing and wounding 50 people. Does worshipping Islam in a slightly different way demand a death sentence? Evidently so. Israel, a modern state, regards sticks and stones in a different way. After enormous provocation by Hamas in Gaza hurling hundreds of rockets at them (sticks and stones), they went in the winter of 2008-9 to clean out the rocket factories and their perpetrators. Then the UN sent in a respected investigator, South African Judge Richard Goldstone, who urged both sides to investigate, but severely condemned Israel for deliberately targeting civilians. This report was devastating to Israel's reputation. Name calling can harm you. After a new investigation, Goldstone acknowledged his report was mistaken. The Israelis had no government policy to target civilians. Hamas, however, not only plants their weapons among crowded civilian homes, but is happy to abuse civilians-theirs and Israel's. Goldstone has now condemned them for refusing to conduct the investigation he requested. When it comes to “sticks and stones” and name calling that hurts, we must consider the source. Honor cultures do not think as we do, but we dishonor our own culture when we fear “offending” them. Thu, 14 Apr 2011 14:59:53 -0700 RSSPECT-001283201 http://www.infideltaskforce.com/ Amr Mussa to ask UN that same sanction imposed on Libya be implemented against Israel. State official in response: Arab League should first ensure Gaza militants halt attacks on Israel Arab League Chief Amr Mussa said Sunday that the organization would ask the United Nations Security Council to impose a no-fly zone over Gaza, which Israel has pounded with air strikes in response to rocket fire. Condemning what it called Israel's "brutal" aggression in Gaza, a gathering of the Arab League's permanent delegates chaired by Oman called on the UN to convene its Security Council. The meeting would "consider the Israeli aggression in the Gaza Strip on an urgent basis to stop its siege and impose a no-fly rule on the Israeli military to protect civilians in the Gaza Strip," the Arab League said in a statement. An Israeli government official in Jerusalem, who declined to be named, dismissed the call and said the Arab League should first ensure Gaza militants halt attacks on Israel. "If the Arab League wants a no-fly zone in Gaza is it also talking about ground-to-ground missiles that are fired from Gaza on Israeli cities? About missiles fired at school buses? About mortar shells fired at farms?" the official said. "If the Arab League wants Israeli military aircraft to stop flying over the Gaza Strip then it should first ensure there is no reason for them to be there to protect Israeli citizens." http://www.topnews.in/files/MapArabWorld.jpg The Cairo-based regional body also said Sudan should press a complaint against Israel at the Security Council over what Sudan has called a missile attack that killed two people. Israel has declined to comment on Khartoum's accusation it launched the strike near Port Sudan airport on Tuesday night. "The council of Arab League calls on the Sudanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the apparatus of African Union ... to present a complaint against Israel in front of the Security Council and the U.N.'s general assembly," the League said. So let us use the 5 WHYS that is the basics of Quality Control operations around the world! 1) UN: Why do you want a "no-fly zone"? Amr Mussa: Because our citizens are being killed. 2) UN: Why are your citizens being killed? Amr Mussa: Because Israel is bombing our cities? 3) UN: Why is Israel bombing your cities? Amr Mussa: Because some of their people were killed. 4) UN: Why were their people killed? Amr Muss: Becuase they were hit by rocket fire. 5) UN: WHO Fired those rockets? Amr Mussa: ....uh...uh....um...........we did. Conclusion....UN: Please remove yourself from these facilities, and don't ever come back. Israel shall continue to defend itself. ...............................only in a sane world. - BBJ Sun, 10 Apr 2011 15:42:10 -0700 RSSPECT-001280488 http://www.infideltaskforce.com/ KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — 4/1/11 - Thousands of protesters angry over the burning of a Quran by a Florida pastor stormed a U.N. compound Friday in northern Afghanistan, killing at least 12 people, including eight foreigners. The desecration of the Muslim holy book fueled resentment against the West at a critical moment in the Afghan war. The demonstration in Mazar-i-Sharif turned violent when some protesters grabbed weapons from the U.N. guards and opened fire, then mobbed buildings and set fires on the compound, officials said. Demonstrators also massed in Kabul and the western city of Herat. The topic of Quran burning stirred outrage among millions of Muslims and others worldwide after the Rev. Terry Jones' small church, Dove Outreach Center, threatened to destroy a copy of the holy book last year. The Florida pastor had backed down but the church went through with the burning last month. Munir Ahmad Farhad, a spokesman in Balkh province, said the protest in Mazar-i-Sharif began peacefully when several hundred demonstrators gathered outside the U.N. mission's compound, choosing an obvious symbol of the international community's involvement in Afghanistan to denounce the Quran's destruction. Fri, 01 Apr 2011 16:34:29 -0700 RSSPECT-001274496 http://www.infideltaskforce.com/ Muslim Student Group a Gateway to Jihad? WASHINGTON - 3/31/11 - The Muslim Students Association, or MSA, is one of the largest Islamic organizations in America, with chapters on hundreds of college campuses. It's alumni include doctors, lawyers and engineers. But the group has another track record that it doesn't advertise: several of its leaders have been convicted of terrorism, prompting some terror experts to call the MSA a recruiting tool for jihad. "The Muslim Students Association has been a virtual terror factory" Although many Muslim and liberal groups complained about recent congressional hearings on homegrown Islamic radicalism, American-born Muslims are behind a growing number of terror plots -- a trend that Attorney General Eric Holder has said keeps him "up at night." Many of these homegrown jihadists once belonged to the MSA, which has thousands of members on college campuses throughout the U.S. and Canada. Student Network or Terror Factory? The MSA bills itself as a resource and support group, a place where Muslim students can network and help grow the association. Terrorism expert Patrick Poole, however, told CBN News his investigation of the organization shows it's being used for another purpose. "The Muslim Students Association has been a virtual terror factory," said Poole. "Time after time after time again, we see these terrorists -- and not just fringe members: these are MSA leaders, MSA presidents, MSA national presidents -- who've been implicated, charged and convicted in terrorist plots." Thu, 31 Mar 2011 10:29:16 -0700 RSSPECT-001273648 http://www.infideltaskforce.com/ All American Blogger - 3/26/11 - A new study has found there is one religion in the world that is far more persecuted than any other. As a reader in the western world, it might come as a surprise to learn that Christians face persecution at a far higher rate than any other religion in the world. In fact, 75 percent of religious persecution is against followers of Jesus. It is estimated that 150,000 Christians are killed each year because of their faith, one every three minutes. The worst “persecution” Christians face in America is the occasional Leftist attempt to get Christmas decorations removed from a public setting, or stores substituting “Happy Holidays” for “Merry Christmas.” It isn’t as simple for followers in other countries. Examining 33 countries, the British branch of Aid to the Church in Need reported that most of the persecution was occurring in the Middle East, Africa and Asia in its 2011 “Persecuted and Forgotten? A Report on Christians oppressed for their faith.” Besides the usual suspects – China, Iran, North Korea, and Saudi Arabia – the report also reveals that countries such as Venezuela, Zimbabwe and even the Holy Land are guilty of religious persecution. The report also finds that Christians face increased persecution in 22 countries among those examined, with Egypt, Iraq, Nigeria, and Pakistan being among the worst countries for believers to live in. The report also says that now 100 million Christians worldwide are facing persecution. “The proportion of countries with a worsening track-record of anti-Christian violence and intimidation would be higher were it not for the fact that in many cases the situation could scarcely have been worse in the first place,” the report stated. Read the entire commentary HERE Don't feel like reading the rest? Well here are some headlines that might make you change your mind. Egypt: “Two whole families were destroyed” While the masses were trying to oust Hosni Mubarack, there were others who were fixated on the slaughter of Christians Nigeria: “Three hour systematic orgy of violence…” In Nigeria, 500 Christians were butchered in three hours Iraq: ”The past is terrifying, the present is not promising.” A senior clergyman representing Christians in Iraq recently claimed that time is running out for Iraqi Christians. There are more than 200,000 in the country, but violence and threats of violence show they face a future filled with bloody persecution Pakistan: ”they raped the girl and cut one of her breasts in front of her parents” While Pakistan may be considered an ally in the once titled War on Terror, the Islamists living in the country are no friends to the Pakistani Christian. They are their persecutor. (this country being listed here does not surprise us) Indonesia: ”Police say the heads were found some distance from the bodies.” In 2005, three little girls were walking through a cocoa plantation when Muslims descended upon them and did the unspeakable: Sat, 26 Mar 2011 14:32:56 -0700 RSSPECT-001270300 http://www.infideltaskforce.com/ Detroit MI - 3/22/11 - The FBI is investigating a suspicious package containing explosives left unattended by security guards for three weeks inside a 26-story federal building in Detroit, according to law enforcement officials. The package, containing “explosive components,” is at the FBI crime lab in Quantico for further testing as a federal investigation continues, according to FBI Special Agent Sandra Berchtol. The Patrick V. McNamara Federal Building in downtown Detroit houses regional offices for the FBI, IRS, Social Security Administration, Peace Corps and Sen. Carl Levin (D-Mich.). Law enforcement sources blamed the incident on private security guards and inspectors with the Federal Protective Service, a tiny Homeland Security agency responsible for protecting more than 9,000 federal facilities nationwide. A law enforcement source said the suspicious package was brought by a private security guard into the building, where it remained, unopened and unscreened, for about three weeks. The source, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation is ongoing, said security officers thought the package might have belonged to someone on a nearby construction crew. About three weeks later, security personnel decided to screen the package, became alarmed at the results and called federal authorities and the Detroit police department’s bomb squad. “They weren’t sure what it was, but thought it better to get it out of the building,’’ the source said. “That’s when everyone converged on the building.” Asked why the package was not screened for three weeks, the law enforcement official said: “You’d think they would have screened it.’’ A private security guard involved in the incident has been suspended until further notice, according to a senior FPS official. Similar disciplinary action will be taken against contract and FPS-employed guards if the investigation determines others are culpable, the official said. Levin and his staff have been briefed on the ongoing investigation and he "is eager to learn the results of that investigation," a spokeswoman said. The Department of Homeland Security did not immediately respond to requests for information. Thu, 24 Mar 2011 10:22:41 -0700 RSSPECT-001268999 http://www.infideltaskforce.com/ A great irony of the age is that the seemingly most diehard proponents of freedom— the useful idiots of our time—are the most dangerous unwitting accomplices of liberty’s enemy—Islam. Keep in mind that the very name “Islam” is a derivation of “taslim,” the Arabic word for “surrender,” surrender to the will and dictates of Allah as revealed by Muhammad and recorded in the Quran. This non-negotiable surrender to Islam requires the individual as well as the society to disenfranchise themselves of many of the fundamental and deeply cherished human rights. Below is a brief presentation of what this surrender to Islam entails and why it is imperative that all freedom-loving people arise and defeat the menace of Islamofascism. Amendment I of the Bill of Rights enshrines some of the most cherished ideals of freedom-loving people: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances. Thu, 17 Mar 2011 13:55:21 -0700 RSSPECT-001265387 http://www.infideltaskforce.com/ Israel - 3/15/11 - According to shipment documents and crew questioning, the vessel initially departed from the Lattakia Port in Syria, and then proceeded to Mersin Port in Turkey. The IDF emphasizes that Turkey has no connection to this incident regarding the weaponry uncovered on-board. A short while ago, IDF Navy fighters intercepted the cargo vessel “Victoria” loaded with various weaponry. According to assessments, the weaponry on-board the vessel was intended for the use of terror organizations operating in the Gaza Strip. The vessel, flying under a Liberian flag, was intercepted some 200 miles west of Israel’s coast. This incident was part of the Navy’s routine activity to maintain security and prevent arms smuggling, in light of IDF security assessments. Tue, 15 Mar 2011 11:32:47 -0700 RSSPECT-001264358 http://www.infideltaskforce.com/ I would bet that the Egyptian Muslim and Christian girls and women who were attacked by Egyptian men in Tahrir Square were in far more “pain” than the American Constitution was. The women, who were demonstrating for women’s human rights, were beaten, groped, and verbally abused; many left Liberation Square in tears. There is no respect for professors or lecturers on the American campus if they are in any way critical, i.e. tell the truth about Islam, Islamism, or the actual deeds of Muslims. Students in keffiyehs heckle, jeer, scream, rage, and make bitter, brainwashed accusations that are not amenable to reason, logic, or civilized dialogue. It is getting quickly and increasingly dangerous out there in public. Every street, classroom, and state capital is a potential battle field, war zone. Westerners, including Arab students and activists in our midst, have taken to Arab Street standards of intimidation and have learned how to rule “by mob,” not by law.

In 1990, Ellison helped arrange racial separatist—and inventor of the anti-Caucasian slur “honkey”—Stokley Carmichael’s speech at Minnesota, on the topic of “Zionism: Imperialism, White Supremacy, or Both?” Ellison graduated with a Juris Doctorate that same year, going on to work as the executive director of the Legal Rights Center in Minneapolis, which specialized in the pro bono defense of “low-income people and people of color.” After that, he took a job with the law firm Hassan & Reed Ltd. For eight years, Ellison also “forgot” to pay his federal taxes, prompting the IRS to place liens against his house. He also ignored so many parking and speeding tickets issued to him that his driver’s license was suspended, multiple times. Over the years, Ellison has held or appeared at fundraisers and speaking engagements for multiple organizations associated with Islamic extremists, including the Council for American-Islamic Relations, the Muslim American Society, the Islamic Circle of America, the Islamic Society of North America, the Muslim Public Affairs Council, and so on. Just as a sampler, it should be noted that the founders of CAIR, Nihad Awad and Omar Ahmad, were former officers in the Islamic Association of Palestine, a group linked directly to terrorist group Hamas. Awad is a member of the Muslim Brotherhood’s Palestine Committee; in 1998, Ahmad told a group of California Muslims that: “Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Koran, the Muslim book of scripture, should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth.” Sat, 12 Mar 2011 09:15:52 -0800 RSSPECT-001262731 http://www.infideltaskforce.com/ The radicalization of American Muslims is driven not by the religion of Islam but by a political Islam that promotes theocracy and rallies against the United States and its secular democracy, a self-described “devout” Muslim, said at a congressional hearing on Thursday. M. Zudhi Jasser, president of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy, said that the failure to address this brand of Islam and to encourage American Muslims to embrace the rights and liberties guaranteed under the U.S. Constitution is affecting those individuals who not only turn against their country but commit acts of violence against their fellow citizens.

But the UN has proven on many occasions to be all talk and no action. At least no effective, positive, productive action. Sternly worded resolutions have no effect on heavily-armed dictators. As a sovereign nation, the U.S. does not need to ask permission or get a consensus from any other country or countries before defending itself; however, when time permits, most other countries expect to hear some justification when Country A bombs Country B.
