Michael Nazir-Ali om England, Pakistan, kristendom og mere

Udmærket interview:

The Good Fight

by Huw Spanner – November 2011

Michael Nazir-Ali IconAs a bishop in Raiwind and Rochester and as a ‘lord spiritual’, Dr Michael Nazir-Ali has been a controversial champion of both Christian truth and human dignity. Third Way engaged with him at the Bible Society’s offices in Westminster.

Your background, I believe, is very important to who you are. Your father was a convert from Islam…

Yes, I come from quite a large Shia Muslim family. My father was the only one who became a Christian, be­fore I was born – indeed, before he was married. My mother was from a Methodist tradition.

Were there repercussions from his conversion? Obviously, in Pakistan today it would be quite a serious matter.

It’s always serious and, yes, there have been some quite difficult times for him, and for us; but equally we have had good relations with many family members. I’ve just visited my senior uncle, who is the head of the family now, and head of the religious leaders of the Shia community in that part – and that was a cordial visit.

Nigel Farage om løgn og Bryssel

Folkeafstenminger var noget man brugte tilbage i demokratiets dage. Englænderne får ikke nogen. Grækerne får ikke nogen. Ja, det blev lovet dem at de ville få afstemninger, men bedrag er den slags metoder, moderne politikere ser sig nødsaget til at bruge for at hindre populisme. Alias folkestyre. Ikke? Davosmænd og halalhipper vil da blæse på, hvad folk mener eller ikke mener. Underligt, at folk ikke kan lære det:

Nigel Farage: Who will defend the City?

3 November 2011 | By Nigel Farage

The UK’s biggest industry, financial services, is facing the biggest threat in its history from a new regulatory regime in Brussels that is opposed to “Anglo-Saxon” practices.

This matters because hundreds of thousands of people work in what we still call the City, even though many now are in Canary Wharf and the West End. It matters because 20 per cent of our tax revenues come from the sector.

And it matters to me because my grandfather and father were both stockbrokers and I spent 20 years on the London Metal Exchange. Indeed both of my sons are now in the City, and I want to fight to defend it.

Useful idiots for Palestine

Hvad sker der i Syrien?

Tja, man må jo antage, at EU og USA ønsker en stærkere islamisering af Syrien med sharialov, udryddelse af kristne, formummede kvinder og hele balladen. Det er de mål, Vesten (og Danmark) hidtil har realiseret i Libyen, Irak, Bosnien, Kosovo. Afghanistan var stærkt islamiseret i forvejen, her har man dog fået reduceret antallet af vantro betragteligt i den tid, de vestlige styrker har været til stede. Således er den sidste kirke nu blevet jævnet med jorden og Vestens soldater har fået pålagt sharia-adfærd for toiletbesøg. Man må ikke vende røven mod Mekka. Biblen er forbudt.

Vesten har via FN ydet mere eller mindre åbenlys støtte til Hizbollah i Libanon, der jo har et større antal kristne, man kan sætte ind imod. Det må vel være en del af planen? Med samt en svækkelse af eller et angreb på Israel, selvfølgelig. Så i Syrien vil Det Muslimske Broderskab, Al Qaeda og ligende vil jo nok få betragtelig vestlig opbakning. EU-landenes repræsentanter kan jo ikke ligefrem beskyldes for at være tilhængere af demokrati. Som iagttager kan man kun græmme sig. Jihad så langt øjet rækker – Sig månen langsomt hæver:

Syria’s Choice: Murderous Secular Regime or Islamic Fundamentalists

by Khaled Abu Toameh – November 4, 2011

As Syrian dictator Bashar Assad continues to slaughter his people, there are growing indications that the Islamists are increasing their efforts to replace his regime.

What started as a secular Facebook revolution against the Assad regime is now beginning to look more like a jihad [holy war] led by Muslim fundamentalists.

The Muslim Brotherhood is clearly seeking to hijack the anti-Assad protests, in both the political and military fields.

In the past few months, there have been many signs of a “return to Islam” in Syrian society. Large banners urging women to wear the hijab have appeared in Damascus and other main cities and many restaurants and hotels have stopped serving alcohol in keeping with Islamic law. This is in addition to the fact that many of the daily anti-Assad demonstrations are being launched from mosques, especially after Friday prayers.

Middle East Eclipsed

U.S. policymakers fear a “Shia crescent,” a regional alliance led by Iran. A dawning “Muslim Brotherhood crescent” is far more threatening.

By Lee Smith | November 2, 2011

Until January of this year, U.S. policymakers and American allies feared what Jordan’s King Abdullah II had dubbed the “Shia crescent.” The thinking was that as Iran’s power grew, this strategic alignment of hostile governments would stretch from the Islamic Republic of Iran, through its ally Syria, on to the newly empowered Shia majority in Iraq, and up to the shores of the eastern Mediterranean where it would reach Hezbollah in Lebanon. But that was before pro-American dictators started to fall like dominoes across the region. What we’re looking at now is what some, like historian Martin Kramer, have called a “Muslim Brotherhood crescent.”

Take a look at the map. In last week’s Tunisian elections, the Islamist al-Nahda Party, once outlawed, won 90 out of 217 seats. As goes Tunisia, so goes the Arab Spring. In Libya, several Islamist figures, some of them reportedly aligned with al-Qaida, seem likely to fill the vacuum left by Muammar Qaddafi’s death. In Egypt, the Muslim Brotherhood, the region’s oldest Islamist movement, is prepared to compete for 50 percent of the country’s parliamentary seats in elections scheduled for later this month. The exact strength of the Islamist element in the ongoing Syrian uprising remains to be seen, but the contours of this new crescent are already becoming clear.

Jyllands-Posten må vel udfases?

Vi kan jo ikke have terrortruede bygninger stående for tid og evighed. Allerede 2009 lukkede Jyllands-Posten sit trykkeri i Viby. Hele 107 trykkere mistede deres arbejde. Jyllands-Postens bygninger i København er mere eller mindre Politikens Hus nu, – avisen forlod også sine gode lokaler på Kongens Nytorv i 2009, skriver Berlingske Tidende. Jeg gætter på, at resten af forretningen også er under afvikling. Dele af virksomheden fusionerer vel med andre foretagender. Sælges. Skifter navn. Nedlægges. Rives ned. Medarbejderne spredes for alle vinde. Og så fremdeles indtil alle aktiver er realiseret. Tilsidst går avisen ind. Jyllands-Posten har heller ikke fornyet sin hjemmesidegrafik i årevis.

Det handler om menneskeliv. Hele lokalmiljøer rundt om bladets ejendomme er i farezonen. Det man man ikke glemme.

Ikke at det hjælper. Jihadister kan sagtens finde andre danske mål. Staten importerer til stadighed flere og flere elementer af den potientielt sprængfarlige slags. Så: vi kan ikke længere have, at nogen siger, hvad vi andre tænker. Ytringsfriheden er forbi. Danmark er forbi. Vi finansierer vores egen undergang. Det er ikke kun Jyllands-Posten og ytringsfriheden, der udfases. Det er os, man vil af med. Endnu et signal til opbrud – vi må ud af Europa:

Mange vil mene, at dagens avis også burde have indeholdt den karrikaturtegning af profeten Muhammed, som efter al sandsynlighed er årsag til attentatet mod ugemagasinet Charlie Hebdos redaktion i Paris. Det gør den ikke.

“100 Lashes If You Don’t Die Laughing”

Islam’s War on Free Speech

by Soeren Kern – November 3, 2011

The Paris offices of the satirical French magazine Charlie Hebdo were destroyed in an arson attack after it “invited” the Islamic Prophet Mohammed to be its “guest editor.”

The November 2 firebombing attack took place just hours before the magazine’s current issue — titled “Sharia Hebdo” (a reference to Islamic law), and featuring a cartoon of Mohammed on its cover — hit the news stands.

The attack marks a serious escalation of a long-running Islamic war on free speech and expression in Europe. In recent years, Muslim immigrants and their multicultural supporters in Europe have used a combination of lawsuits, verbal and physical harassment and even murder to silence debate about the rise of Islam there.

Interview med Condoleezza Rice

The FP Interview: Condoleezza Rice on Obama, “Leading from Behind,” Iraq, and More

The former secretary of state dishes on what the current administration gets right – and what it gets wrong.

By Josh Rogin | November 3, 2011

Logo Foreign Policy SmallFormer Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice sat down for an extensive interview with Foreign Policy as part of the rollout of her new book, No Higher Honor. Rice criticized the notion of “leading from behind”; called for a return to a focus on human rights in foreign policy; lamented the downfall of democracy in Russia, calling Putin’s likely return to power a “terrible turn of events”; and contended that George W. Bush’s administration, despite avowals by the current White House to the contrary, had always intended to negotiate an extension to the agreement that required all U.S. troops to exit Iraq by the end of this year.

On the contentious subject of Middle East peace, Rice fully endorsed the U.S. decision to withdraw from any U.N. organization that grants full membership to the Palestinians, as UNESCO did this week. “If the U.N. wants to go down this road, let them see how well they do without U.S. support,” she said. Rice also said that by initially pressuring the Israeli government to accept a settlement freeze, Barack Obama’s administration had “put the Palestinians in a position of having to be less Palestinian than the United States,” forcing them to adopt more extensive demands.

Uriasposten om Danmarks Radio:

Et klart mønster tegner sig. Konservative medier får etiketten ‘højreorienteret’, hvorimod venstreorienterede får ‘uafhængig’, ‘velanset’ eller ‘troværdig’.
