And Britain slides deeper into Islam's clutches....







A 15-year-old British girl has been arrested on suspicion of inciting religious hatred after she allegedly set fire to an English-language copy of the Koran and posted footage of the incident on Facebook.

The unidentified teen is accused of torching the Muslim holy book as other students watched, at her school in Sandwell near the city of Birmingham in central England. She was questioned by police on Friday and was released later in the day pending further inquiries.

Wake up, England. Each day you let your country slide deeper into the clutches of Islamofacism. Almost 2 years ago the Daily Mail reported the alarming number of British Muslims fighting for the Taliban in Afghanistan, and yet you continue to kowtow to Shariah Law and this sick notion that Islam is a peaceful thing. In today's UK Guardian there's an article about Afghani Brits fighting for the Taliban. In fact, one of them works as a cab driver in England when he's not off fighting a Jihad against the very people who offer him a place to live & work. This is nothing new; the Brits have worried about this for years, since the 9-11 and Shoe Bomber attacks, but have done bugger-all to stem the tide in their country.

And from this little chart put together at the Pew Center, as far back as 2006 81% of British Muslims view themselves as Muslims first and Brits second.I mean, we all know just how peaceful Muslims are in the UK. And just today the Daily Mail reported that a Muslim artist has painted a picture of the 7/7 London terror bombing of a city bus with angels over the bus in the same number as the terrorists who took part in the attack

And we have all these lovely images to remind us as well.





At this rate you'll have to give Kate Middleton a copy of this magazine to plan her & Wil's wedding.


Missed my other looks at Britain's death-dive into Muslim lunacy?

Here or here or here or here or even here.

This just in from the Islamic Caliphate of England





Kinda sucks when it's YOUR flag they're burning, doesn't it? And here I thought the only flags they burned were American & Israeli....Religion of Peace, my ass. See where accommodation has gotten you, England? You have Manchesterstan, Liverpoolistan, Birminghamistan, and The Sultanate of London....


File this one under "You Gotta Be Shitting Me."

As you all well know, I have been highly critical of England's constant knuckling under to her Islamic minority. From Burka Barbie to Muslim Swim Time to Sharia Law being recognized, I've been pretty harsh in my critique. Then again, I'm pretty damned tough on Islam as a whole; just use that cool little search tab up at the top left of my page, type in "Islam" and go to town.

And now, England falls further under the Crescent. The owner of a cafe in a Manchester suburb is being forced to remove the exhaust fan from her establishment's kitchen. Why? Because the smell of frying bacon is offensive to Muslims who were visiting her neighbor.

Digest that morsel, friends.

And now, feast on this: she's married to a Muslim Turk who has no problem frying the bacon and their Muslim friends come in there to eat non-pork food all the time (because they aren't crazy and they integrated into the culture of the Western land they inhabit). But because they supposedly had one complaint, the governmental wags flew into Muslim Appeasement Mode and this hard-working couple could incur undo hardship & expense to deal with the situation.




This is all anathema to me. Pretty much everything Islamic is anathema to my American viewpoint and American way of life. Islam prohibits alcohol and pork. Americans live on beer, hot dogs, and bacon cheeseburgers. Hallelujah! Islam strictly forbids homosexuality; I have lotsa gay friends whom I love dearly. As Americans, we are obligated to tolerate all faiths, but that doesn't mean we have to be willfully blind and stupid about people who are avowed to a culture which is diametrically opposed to everything America stands for.

Why is it that Islamists, who openly believe to their dying breath as they detonate themselves that every aspect of American life is intolerable and should be opposed by brute deadly force, want to infiltrate our country and communities... and yet it's not considered perfectly reasonable to keep a suspicious eye on them? Furthermore, just because we have to tolerate them doesn't mean we're under any obligation to accommodate them. The rules work both ways, Achmed. You're free to say that the Torah and Bible are corrupted, and Jesus was never really crucified, and that the Holocaust never happened. We're free to say that Mohammed was an opportunistic prick and that your ass-backwards religious zealotry has wiped out all of those great scientific and mathematical achievements scholars say you made while we were still wearing loincloths.What do you mean, "Muslims might find this offensive.." ? This is an epic win.


The is just about the only AK-47 a Muslim won't touch. So be it.

Hey, Britons...Take back your country!



That’s it. I give up.

England, I renounce you as the ancestral homeland of the bulk of my gene pool. I grew up with a deep love of the U.K., but I’m really disillusioned now.

Once upon a time, the sun never set on the British Empire. You used to run half the world. And now you’ve become a ridiculous shell of your former glory because your government bends over backwards in its absolutely asinine efforts to kiss every Muslim ass on the island. You may as well just close Number 10 Downing Street and turn it into a mosque. Wrap the Queen in a burka and change your name to the United British Emirates.


You can have a separate Emir for England, Scotland, and Wales…and then when the Islamics kill off all the Catholics and Protestants, Ireland will be united once again as the Islamic Emerald Emirate.


Where France has banned Muslim women from swimming in public pools whilst wearing “burquinis”, you idiots not only support the burquini, but British swimming pools have begun hosting special Muslim swim sessions during which swimmers — including non-Muslims — are banned from entering the pool if their swimming attire doesn't comply with dress code required by Islamic custom. One British lawmaker defended the Muslim swim sessions, stating that they show an appreciation for certain religious groups, like Muslims, who have strict rules on segregation for activities including sports.


Hey, snapperhead…what about the fact that England is NOT a Muslim country and that the Muslim minority should adapt to the country they willingly moved to instead of imposing their will on their hosts and expecting everyone to acquiesce else they get a car bomb?

How about this little tidbit? It seems that many customers of Lloyds TSB banks are being hit with charges of up to £200 a month if they go into the red and overdraft their accounts, while Muslims who use the bank are only being charged £15.

The partly-nationalized bank has been accused of religious discrimination over the disparity between overdraft charges on its standard current account and its Islamic account. The Islamic account was set up by the High Street bank to attract Muslim customers by allowing them to keep faithful to their religion. It seems that Sharia law does not permit the payment of interest so the 'typical' Islamic account at Lloyds TSB has been set up without an overdraft facility.

Again, what in the bloody hell are you doing by allowing Sharia Law to sink its teeth into British life?

You sold out when BP and the government made a deal with Libya…and then the Scots allowed that terrorist scumbag to go home to a hero’s welcome. Way to go, guys.
Your newspapers bitch and complain about your soldiers being killed in Afghanistan and clamor for their return home? Well, maybe they SHOULD come home, so they can fight off the Islamic Invasion from within?


I notice that there’s nary a word from the Queen on any of this. I realize that she’s merely a figurehead, but why give the woman any deference when you won’t defer to her for any leadership? Where’s Prince Charles, the nominal successor to the throne? Why hasn’t he said anything? Because he’s off at Balmoral riding that polo pony he married. Prince of Wales, yet he spends more time in Scotland than in his own principality. Go figure. Maybe he can’t pronounce the name of his estate at Wnsgttevskklspsksnbebegtsgbgh or some other impossible-to-say Welsh-ism?


At least Prince Harry, bless his soul, was trying like hell to deploy with his unit to go fight the enemy. He may have made some youthful errors in judgment before he went into the Army, but he seems to be the last Royal with his priorities straight.

HRH, Prince Harry....Lieutenant Windsor if you prefer.

Keep it up, England. Pretty soon you won’t be able to go sit with your mates for a pint at the local…because Muslims don’t drink…and Sharia Law will outlaw pubs. Maybe when they come for your lager you’ll wake up.

I see your true colors shining through...



Again and again the Religion of Peace shows its true colors, and as always I’m amazed at how conciliatory the Brits are to their minority Muslim population, condemning their actions on one hand while using the other hand to pat them on the head and make policy changes to British life to pacify Islam.

A British man being held hostage in Mali has been executed, his captors said this past Wednesday, prompting strong condemnation from Britain of a "barbaric" act. Afterwards, they went back to kissing Islam’s ass.

Edwin Dyer was one of four European tourists kidnapped on January 22 as they returned from attending the "Festival in the Desert," a celebration of music and nomad culture at Anderamboukane in Mali, near the border with Niger.

Messages posted on Islamic web sites indicated that they were being held by Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), a 300-strong Islamist terror group splinter cell offshoot that operates in the desert borderlands of Mali, Algeria, Niger and Mauritania.

Edwin Dyer in film footage taken by his captors

England’s Prime Minister Gordon Brown said there was "strong reason" to believe that the report was true. "I utterly condemn this appalling and barbaric act of terrorism. My thoughts are with Edwin Dyer’s family. I offer them the condolences of the whole country."

A few weeks after the abduction, the hostage-takers issued an ultimatum, warning they would kill Dyer unless the U.K. freed the radical cleric Abu Qatada within 20 days. The good cleric is being held in Long Lartin prison in Worcestershire while he fights extradition to Jordan, where he faces terrorism charges.

Abû-Qatâda al-Filisṭînî (sometimes called Abû-Omar) is the author of Islamic Movements and Contemporary Alliances, which argues essentially for no affiliation whatsoever between Muslim and non-Muslim countries. Under the name Omar Mahmoud Othman he is under worldwide embargo by the United Nations Security Council for his affiliation with al-Qaeda. He is wanted on terrorism charges in Algeria, America, Belgium, Spain, France, Germany, Italy, and his native Jordan. Seems that he was implicated in the July 2005 London bombings, and Qatada is reported to have been a preacher or advisor to noted al-Qaeda terrorists Zacarias Moussaoui and failed asstard shoe-bomber Richard Reid.

When questioned in the UK in February 2001, Abu Qatada was in possession of £170,000 cash, including £805 in an envelope labelled "For the Mujahedin in Chechnya". That’d be $271,643.00 in his posession, and a terrorist donation envelope with a paltry $1286.34, hardly enough to buy some Semtex for bomb-making.

Uncle Abu is such a jolly fellow. Looks like an Arab Santa Claus...with a sackfull of hate.

Nineteen audio cassettes of Abu Qatada's sermons were found in the apartment of Mohamed Atta when it was searched after the September 11 attacks. I’m sure ya’ll remember Atta, right? The dude who led the attacks? Such a nice fellow.

On May 15 the deadline was extended by a further two weeks to May 30, and a second demand was issued, this time for a ransom of $142 million in exchange for Dyer and another hostage.

In a statement issued Wednesday AQIM said: "The British captive was killed so that he, and with him the British state, may taste a tiny portion of what innocent Muslims taste every day at the hands of the Crusader and Jewish coalition to the east and to the west."

Dude, wtf? Just move to England and they’ll give you whatever you ask for…the Archbishop of Canterbury himself will be your butler, along with Lord Chief Justice Phillips as your legal counsel.

Brown said: "This tragedy reinforces our commitment to confront terrorism. It strengthens our determination never to concede to the demands of terrorists, nor to pay ransoms. I want those who would use terror against British citizens to know beyond doubt that we and our allies will pursue them relentlessly, and that they will meet the justice they deserve.”

That translates from politico-speak as “We’ll keep sitting on our thumbs acquiescing to your wishes and hope that you’ll go away while you continue to blow people up and cut off their heads. But we support our American ally Obama as he runs about apologizing to Muslims for America’s reaction to Islamic terror attacks”.

In other news, last month Iran executed a 23-year old woman without due process and after she retracted her forced confession for murder. This is the same Iran that Obama is just itching to be friends with, remember.

Delara Darabi made a frantic phone call to her mother begging for help before Iranian authorities held a rushed execution, disregarding a stay-of-execution order and allegedly without informing her lawyer.

'Mother they are going to execute me, please save me,' Delara Darabi
screamed, before a prison official grabbed the phone and told her mother: 'We are going to execute your daughter and there's nothing you can do about it.'

Delara Darabi: another victim of Islam

She was just 17 when she confessed to the killing of her father's cousin, before retracting her confession, saying she had been defending her 19-year-old boyfriend. She told a judge that she had initially confessed because her boyfriend, who she said carried out the killing, told her that, as a minor, she would not be executed and she could save him from being put to death.

Lawyer Mohammad Mostafaei said Darabi called her parents just moments before the execution on Friday. He quoted her as saying, 'Oh, Mother, I see the hangman's noose in front of me. They are going to execute me. Please save me.'

Iranian law requires authorities to inform a prisoner's lawyer at least 48 hours before an execution, but Mostafaei said he was not given warning that the sentence was to be carried out. The woman's parents were not allowed inside the prison to meet her for a last time, Mostafaei said.

'She was denied a legal right guaranteed under the law,' he said. 'The hasty execution and the ignoring of legal provisions suggests that some authorities were happy to put an end to her life,' he said. Mostafaei further said the court did not seriously consider his arguments in the woman's defense. For example, he said, Darabi was left-handed, while all the evidence suggests the crime was committed by someone who was right-handed.

I guess CSI: Teheran didn’t cover that part in their forensics classes. Gotta love Islam and Sharia Law. Good times.

And yet, President Obama rushed forth to semi-bow to the Saudi King before jetting to Cairo to address “The Muslim World”. Um, dude…of the world’s 1 BILLION-plus Muslims, barely 25% are Arabs, so you probably would have reached out to more Muslims by speaking in Indonesia, the country with the largest Islamic population on Earth. Instead you go to Egypt, a country whose leader is generally detested world-wide for human rights violations. Then again, Egypt at least recognizes the existance of Israel so perhaps your real reason was to speak from a somewhat-moderate (or at least less-openly-hostile) Arab Islamic nation to appease Arab Muslims and keep the oil flowing while the Democrats keep us from drilling our own.

While I applaud Obama for speaking at the site of the Buchenwald concentration camp and stating that it’s impossible to deny the events that took place there, I’m still not sure why we keep reaching out to Mahmoud Ahmedinijad and Iran’s imams and Ayatollahs. The man keeps denying that the Holocaust ever happenned. Would you be so quick to reach out if he denied that African slavery in America ever existed? (This question was posed by a caller to The Schnitt Show this week). I’m sure that Black America would be all up in arms over it if he did that, but folks make less of a fuss over it when it’s just Israel and the Jews, right?

At least this time you got the right camp. Last Memorial Day you claimed your uncle liberated Auschwitz, which was in Poland and was captured by the Soviet Red Army. In fact, Obama's great-uncle offered a pretty blunt appraisal as to why his nephew was visiting Buchenwald during his trip to Europe and the Middle East.

“This is a trip that he chose, not because of me I'm sure, but for political reasons,” Charles Payne told the German magazine Der Spiegel (The Mirror). “Perhaps his visit also has something to do with improving his standing with (German Chancellor) Angela Merkel. She gave him a hard time during his campaign and also afterwards.”

He said he had never spoken with Obama about the matter, nor did Obama ever express any interest in Payne's experience.

“I was quite surprised when the whole thing came up and Barack talked about my war experiences in Nazi Germany,” Payne said. “We had never talked about that before.”
That’s because it wasn’t politically expedient before, Mister Payne.

Also, I seem to recall that during the election campaign that if anyone mentioned that his middle name was Hussein or that he grew up with a Muslim parent, Obama would go bonkers apeshit over it, but this week all anyone in the administration could do, from Barack on down through to the gardening staff, embraced it and advertised it as part of the Apology Tour. Look at me, guys, I’m sorta Muslim too! Can I be in the club? Let’s be friends!

Dude, the 25% of them you’re sucking up to wants to kill us all for no other good reason than that we aren’t Muslims…and of course they might just kill us for not being the right kind of Muslim if we were Muslims. And hey, Gordon Brown, the more you let your Muslim population dictate how your country lives and breathes, the less English England becomes until HRH the Queen will be swathed in a burka if Philip asserts his Manliness and allows her to leave Buckingham Palace at all.

Shall we break out the Royal Burka?



Once again, England bends over and takes one in the ass, as it withdraws a medal personally established by the Queen for the former colony of Trinidad and Tobago after it was deemed offensive to Muslims and Hindus.

The medal, known as The Trinity Cross of the Order of Trinity, has been ruled unlawful and too Christian. Never mind that England is (or was, it seems) a Christian country, as was their island colony.

It has been awarded to 62 distinguished residents of the former colony over the past 40-plus years, including cricket players Brian Lara and Garfield Sobers, novelist V.S. Naipaul, and many diplomats and politicians.

Groups representing the Islamic and Hindu communities of the islands, which account for around a third of their 1.3million population, had argued that the words 'Trinity' and 'Cross' were 'overtly Christian'. They also said the use of a cross itself was offensive.

Five British law lords, all members of the Privy Council, have ruled that the honor breached the right to equality and the right to freedom of conscience and belief. The Council, an obscure body made up of senior politicians, bishops and parliamentary peers, advise the monarchy on the use of the Royal Prerogative and act as a final court of appeal for many former colonies.

In the judgment, Lord Hope of Craighead said that the Trinity Cross was “perceived by Hindus and Muslims living in Trinidad and Tobago as an overtly Christian symbol both in name and substance” and as such breached the islands' constitution of 1976.
It will be replaced with the Order of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, a circular medal featuring a sun, stars, water and a map of the islands.



Anand Ramlogan, a lawyer for the Maha Saba Hindu association, said of the decision: 'It's a vindication of the 40 years of disquiet and unease silently suffered by the Muslim and Hindu communities whose legitimate grievance with the Trinity Cross was flippantly dismissed by successive governments.'

The implications of the ruling are being studied by lawyers in the Cabinet Office, which oversees the honors system. Hugh Peskett, editor-in-chief of Burke's Peerage and Gentry, warned that changing the names of titles to remove Christian references would destroy hundreds of years of history. 'Part of the significance of an honor is its antiquity,' he said.

Queen Elizabeth II is due to visit Trinidad and Tobago, which was granted independence in 1962, in November for the Commonwealth heads of government meeting. I wonder if the residents of her former colony will expect Her Majesty to wear a burka? Perhaps they should all stop speaking English, too? That might be too Christian. And quit sending teams to the Olympics; those tiny little track shorts are an affront to Allah.

Y’know, if you’re offended by an award, you don’t have to accept it…

England, Sharia, Paranoia, and Puritanical Hypocrisy.



Somebody please tell me what in the hell is in the water in England these days that’s making people insane? I’ve recently highlighted the push for Sharia Law in the UK by the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Lord Chief Justice, and there’s just no explaining the fascination the English seem to have as of late with giving up being English and catering to the wants of every ethnic minority that refuses to assimilate into British society.

A recent poll for the Centre for Social Cohesion found that two in five Muslims in British universities support the idea of Islamic Sharia codes being enshrined in British law and almost one third of British Muslim students think it is acceptable to kill in the name of Islam. A third of Muslim students interviewed also supported the creation of a world-wide caliphate or Islamic state.

In further British lunacy, there’s been a huge furor over a version of a Barbie doll that’s being released in September to promote a DC Comics superhero named Black Canary. She hangs out with Green Arrow. The dolls will come equipped with fishnets, leather jacket, black gloves and boots. As if the Brits can’t come up with something legitimate to protest, such as the low approval rating of the Prime Minister and all the violent crime I keep reading about, they instead complain about commemorative edition Barbie.

Black Canary Barbie will destroy all of Britain

One religious group, the Christian Voice said, “Barbie has always been on the tarty side and this is taking it too far. A children’s doll in sexually suggestive clothing is irresponsible – it’s filth.” It’s a fuckin’ doll, people. I guess you’d rather see Barbie in a burka and Ken wearing a kaffiyeh?



And then you have poor Gary Crutchley. When Gary started taking pictures of his children playing on an inflatable slide he thought they would be happy reminders of a family day out. However, as he was taking snapshots of his kids Cory and Miles, the woman running the slide at asked him what he was doing and other families waiting in line demanded that he stop. One cow even accused him of photographing kids to put the pictures on the internet, insinuating he was a pedophile.

Mr. Crutchley, 39, who had taken pictures only of his own children, was so enraged that he went and found two policemen, who confirmed he had done nothing wrong.

Crutchley said, ‘What is the world coming to when anybody seen with a camera is assumed to be doing things that they should not? This parental paranoia is getting completely out of hand. I was so shocked. One of the police officers told me that it was just the way society is these days. He agreed with me that it was madness.The children wanted to go on an inflatable slide and I started taking photos of them having a good time. Moments later the woman running the slide told me to stop."

"When I asked why, she told me I could not take pictures of other people’s children. I explained I was only interested in taking photos of my own children and pointed out that this was taking place in a public park. I showed her the photos I had taken to prove my point. Then another woman joined in and said her child was also on the slide and did not want me taking pictures of the youngster. I repeated that the only people being photographed were my own children. She said I could be taking pictures of just any child to put on the internet and called me a pervert. We immediately left…"

Crutchley’s wife Tracey said "I was shocked by the reaction of those women. It is very sad when every man with a camera enjoying a Sunday afternoon out in the park with his children is automatically assumed to be a pervert."

Gary Crutchley, his wife, and two boys

So we have complaints over a tarty Barbie doll and accusations of perversion for taking pictures in a park. This uptight behavior from a nation that features topless women on page three of the Sun tabloid newspaper…think National Enquirer meets USA Today. In fact, I think the tits may be the biggest selling point of the paper.

Quit being so prudish and puritanical and paranoid and focus more on the true threat looming within…if you can bloody well turn off watching Big Brother for five minutes.

Will Teacup Yorkies be the Downfall of Islam?




As usual, I’m slightly ahead of the power curve in reporting how effed-up things are in IslamoLand. Back in March, I reported that a man in Iran had been beaten by Islamic Morals Police thugs for walking his dog, and that the government there considered dogs “impure”. (Read my pearls of wisdom here: (http://mojosteve.blogspot.com/2008/03/still-more-sharia-law-crapola.html)

Well, now the Saudis are getting into the mix, for even stranger reasons. It seems that the Mutaween are concerned that single men are using pets as bait to lure women into immorality, so they want to ban pets. What utter bullshit.

In Riyadh, the capital, Saudi Arabia's Islamic religious police, in their zeal to keep the sexes apart, want to make sure the technique of pets-as-babe-magnet doesn't catch on there. Their solution: Ban selling dogs and cats as pets, as well as walking them in public.

The prohibition went into effect last Wednesday in Riyadh, and authorities in the city say they will strictly enforce it, unlike previous such bans in the cities of Mecca (the holiest of holy cituies) and Jiddah, which have been ignored and failed to stop sales.

Violators found outside with their pets will have their beloved companions confiscated by agents of the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice, the official name of the Mutaween religious police, tasked with enforcing Saudi Arabia's strict Islamic code. After the Olympics, maybe China will buy them?

The commission's general manager, Othman al-Othman, said the ban was ordered because of what he called "the rising of phenomenon of men using cats and dogs to make passes at women and pester families" as well as "violating proper behavior in public squares and malls."

Dude…when’s the last time someone walked a cat on a leash through a shopping mall? Ever try to leash a cat? It’s not a wise move, Othie.

"If a man is caught with a pet, the pet will be immediately confiscated and the man will be forced to sign a document pledging not to repeat the act," al-Othman told the Al-Hayat newspaper. "If he does, he will be referred to authorities." (Those same authorities will no doubt declare an anti-kitty jihad, and strap a bomb to the cat for use as a kittybomb. The owner will then be flogged, stoned, and have a limb severed, ostensibly the limb most used to pet the pet.)



The Saudi-owned Al-Hayat newspaper announced the ban in its Wednesday edition last week, saying it was ordered by the acting governor of Riyadh province, Prince Sattam (Blessed Be His Name, of course), based on an edict from the Council of Senior Islamic Scholars and several religious police reports of pet owners harassing women and families.

C’mon. I’ve watched COPS for almost 20 years. I used to *be* a cop. In all my 39+ years of converting O2 into CO2, I have yet to run into dude harassing single women, let alone entire families, by waving a Cockapoo at them and making lewd suggestions. Sure, I’ve seen guys casually sit on benches with ferrets, yellow Lab puppies, an occasional snake, and maybe once a kinkajou, and girls would walk up to them and coo over the little beasties, but never have I seen the same people harass anyone with the animals. If they were bait, then it was subtle bait, not overt. Maybe the guys in Saudi Arabia haven’t learned subtlety yet?

Commission authorities often do not formally announce to the public new rules that they intend to implement. That way, you can stone and cane dozens to help get the word out, I guess. Officials from the commission and Riyadh city government could not be reached for comment on Thursday, which is a weekend day in Saudi Arabia. The English-language Arab News reported on the ban on Thursday. Wow…Thursday is a weekend day? When do these guys find the time to make billions of dollars? Oh wait, Sunday is a Christian thing…..Saturday’s a Jewish thing……Our weekends are Zionist Infidel days and therefore don’t count.

So far, the new prohibition did not appear to have any effect in Riyadh. It's extremely rare, anyway, to see anyone walking a dog, much less carrying a cat in public, in the capital, despite the authorities' claims of flirtatious young men luring girls with their pets in malls. Salesmen at a couple of Riyadh pet stores on Thursday said they did not receive any official orders from the commission banning the sale of pets. Cats and dogs were still on display.

"I didn't hear of the ban," said Yasser al-Abdullah, a 28-year-old Saudi nurse, who was at one pet store with his 3-month-old collie, Joe. Al-Abdullah, who also owns an 8-month-old Lab, said a couple of Western friends had been told to get off the streets by the religious police for walking their dogs. But of course. Harass the Western Infidels.

"I won't allow the commission to take my dogs from me," he said. Brave words, dude. Good luck.

The religious police prowl streets and malls throughout the kingdom, ensuring unmarried men and women do not mix, confronting women they feel are not properly covered or urging men to go to prayers. They also often make attempts to plug the few holes in the strict gender segregation that innovations bring. In 2004, they tried to ban cameras on cell phones, fearing that men and women would exchange pictures of each other, though the prohibition was quickly revoked. Every year, religious police warn against marking Valentine's Day, even trying to prevent people from wearing red clothing on the holiday, which they consider a Western creation that encourages vice. These dudes have WAY too much time on their hands.

There was no word whether commission authorities intend to expand the dog and cat ban beyond the capital. The prohibition may be more of an attempt to simply stop the owning of pets, which uber-conservative Saudi Islamists view as a sign of our insidious corrupt Western Infidel influence, like the fast food joints, shorts, jeans and pop music that have become more common in the kingdom. You’ll gladly take our money, but not anything else?

From what I gather, pet ownership has never been very common in the Arab world, though it is increasingly becoming fashionable among the upper class in Saudi Arabia and other countries such as Egypt. The rich and privileged can act decadently Western, but not the average everyday Achmed on the block.

In Islamic tradition, dogs are shunned as unclean and dangerous, though they are kept for hunting and guarding. Several breeds originated in Muslim countries, such as the Afghan Hound (Afghanistan), the Pharaoh Hound and Saluki (Egypt), the Sloughi Hound and Aidi (Morocco), and no fewer than twelve breeds from Pakistan. In large cities around the Middle East, stray dogs often wander the streets and are considered pests, the same as in almost any large city.

The ban on cats is more unusual, since there's no similar disdain for them in Islamic tradition. Cats are everywhere in ancient Egyptian art, although much of that predates Islam’s arrival. One of the Prophet Mohammed's closest companions was given the name Abu Huraira, Arabic for "the father of the kitten," because he always carried a kitten around with him and took care of it.

A number of hadithas, traditional stories of the Mohammed, show him encouraging people to treat cats well. Once, according to legend, he let a cat drink from the water that he was going to use for his ablutions before prayers.

So, contrary to public desires and modern sensibility, the clerics of Islam continue to keep the Muslim people locked in the Dark Ages out of zealotry. I wonder how the Brits will take to the curbing of pet walking and ownership once they start allowing more and more Sharia Law and Wahabism and Islamist control take a foothold in the United Kingdom.

If the Islamics in England have their way...

If the current acquiescence to Islam by the British government continues, then pretty soon the Queen will have to adopt a radical new look to keep from being draped in a burka....

Want a civil war in England? Add Sharia and stir...



And so England continues on its downward spiral towards riots in the streets, and a possible civil war. I say civil war because more and more half-wits in the British government keep acquiescing to Islam, pushing for the allowance of Sharia Law and pushing other aspects of Islam in England, and the British people are only going to take so much of this nonsense before they raise up against it.

Two prime examples from the past week:

Two schoolboys were given detention last week after refusing to kneel down and 'pray to Allah' during a religious education lesson.

Parents were outraged that the two boys were punished for not wanting to take part in the practical demonstration of how Allah is worshipped. They said forcing their children to take part in the exercise, which included wearing Muslim headgear, was a breach of their human rights.

One parent, Sharon Luinen, said: "This isn't right; it's taking things too far. I understand that they have to learn about other religions. I can live with that but it is taking it a step too far to be punished because they wouldn't join in Muslim prayer. Making them pray to Allah, who isn't who they worship, is wrong and what got me is that they were told they were being disrespectful.”

Another parent, Karen Williams, said: "I am absolutely furious my daughter was made to take part in it and I don't find it acceptable. I haven't got a problem with them teaching my child other religions and a small amount of information doesn't do any harm. But not only did they have to pray, the teacher had gone into the class and made them watch a short film and then said 'we are now going out to pray to Allah'. Not only was it forced upon them, my daughter was told off for not doing it right. They'd never done it before and they were supposed to do it in another language."

One grandparent summed it up perfectly: “… if Muslims were asked to go to church on Sunday and take Holy Communion there would be war."

No shit, Gramps. If you tried to get the Muslim kids to do something Christian or, Allah forbid, Jewish (gasp!!!),then there’d be absolute bloody Jihad and an Intifada called out upon all of the United Kingdom for a slap in the face of Islam. Piccadilly Circus would run red with innocent blood.

And if that wasn’t bad enough, the most senior judge in England last week gave his blessing to the use of Sharia law to resolve disputes among Muslims.

Lord Chief Justice Nicholas Phillips said that Islamic legal principles could be employed to deal with family and marital arguments and to regulate finance. In his speech at an East London mosque, Lord Phillips signalled approval of Sharia principles as long as punishments - and divorce rulings - complied with the law of the land.

The Lord Chief Justice of The Islamic Kingdom of England

When appointed Lord Chief Justice, Phillips gave the impression he would steer an uncontroversial course. His first act in office was to declare, “I intend to keep out of politics”. Yeah, right.

But his remarks, which back the informal Sharia courts operated by numerous mosques, provoked a barrage of criticism. Lawyers warned that family and marital disputes settled by Sharia could disadvantage women or the vulnerable in supposedly voluntary Sharia deals. Conservatives said that legal equality must be respected and that rulings incompatible with English law should never be enforceable.

Lord Phillips said: 'Those who are in dispute are free to subject it to mediation or to agree that it shall be resolved by a chosen arbitrator. There is no reason why principles of sharia law or any other religious code should not be the basis for mediation or other forms of dispute resolution.'He further said that any sanctions must be 'drawn from the laws of England and Wales'. Severe physical punishment - he mentioned stoning, flogging or amputating hands - is 'out of the question' in Britain, he added.

The Arch-Imam of Canterbury. Looks like a real Imam to me, no?

Lord Phillips spoke five months after Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams suggested Islamic law could govern marital law, financial transactions and arbitration in disputes. I called the good Archbishop out on it then too, and I call the good Lord Chief Justice out on it today.

Are you bloody daft, m’lord? You expect the people of England to just give over their civil rights nder English Common Law to appease a bunch of bullies who don’t ascribe to the generally accepted rules of governance and religion in your nation? You can say all you want that the basic rights of English citizens won't be affected, but oce you let Sharia in, it will just fester and grow like a rash until Big Ben will only chime to tell Londoners when to kneel on their rugs.

Pretty soon, and rightly so, the people of England are going to backlash against the Islamics and the government that’s kissing their bearded arses. The Brits may seem all proper and reserved to us Yanks, but I foresee riots on a scale that will make football hooliganism seem like a spring stroll across Hyde Park. Perhaps its high time that the Royals speak up and say something about keeping England English, before they find the good Queen wearing a Royal Burka and being less a figurehead of state and more a third-class citizen not allowed outside without a leash.

Of course, we Americans are fast becoming a colony of Mexico because no one will stand up and say enough is enough, but that’s a blog for another day.

Soon, the Queen will only be allowed outside on Islamic holy days like Ramadan
