BBC News isn't worth watching. Its a mouthpiece of the government, worse than RT News.

This is the BBC news today. I've seen similar over the top biased "reporting" on the BBC during the miners strike mid eighties, during the Irish uprising at the end of the 20th century. Nationalistic propaganda.

I've been around scholars who all roll their eyes at how dumb people, specifically Americans, are for thinking that British state news is somehow non biased.

The big send off to Kenny, the Irish Taoisech, is mostly an article about what a shithole Ireland is and pretty irrelevant information about Catholicism:

BBC wrote:Just a few months into the job, he launched an unprecedented attack on the Vatican for failing to protect children from paedophile priests.

Reacting to the Cloyne Report into clerical abuse, Mr Kenny said: "The rape and torture of children were downplayed or 'managed' to uphold instead the primacy of the institution, its power, standing and reputation."

The charge was angrily rejected by the Vatican, and diplomatic ties remained frosty until the election of Pope Francis two years later.

In 2012, the death of a young pregnant woman, Savita Halappanavar, made headlines around the world and reignited debate about Irish abortion laws.

The 31-year-old dentist was refused an abortion while she was miscarrying her first child in a Galway hospital, and died days later from septicaemia.

A public outcry led Mr Kenny's government to quickly reform the law - the 2013 Protection of Life During Pregnancy Act legalised abortion in very limited circumstances.

In March 2017, it was confirmed that "significant quantities" of human remains had been found in a mass grave at a former mother and baby home in Tuam, County Galway.

The home for unmarried mothers was run by nuns between 1925 and 1961, and high infant mortality and disease were features of such institutions.

The taoiseach described the discovery as "truly appalling" and said the infants buried in unmarked graves had been treated like "some kind of sub-species".

Mr Kenny, who was born in 1951, is a practising Catholic who is married with three adult children.


With the big finish being how he was at fault for Brexit issues in Northern Ireland as he was:

Criticised for raising the possibility of a future poll on a united Ireland.


Can you believe that? He raised the possibility of some day asking what Ireland might think of the issue?

And then how the Queen came to Ireland while he was in charge, which of course as an amazing feat, but sort of implying that Ireland is somehow responsible for problems associated with Brexit:

Mr Kenny's leadership had begun with a high-point in Anglo-Irish relations - the first visit of Queen Elizabeth to the Republic of Ireland.

But he leaves office at a time full of diplomatic dilemmas over how his country will share a future EU border with its nearest neighbour.

The many, many questions over trade, travel, and territorial claims will now pass to his successor to try to resolve.

Go ahead and grin if you like, but if Islam with Sharia Law took over a country, one of the first things they would do is exterminate everyone similar to Carl Sagan.

Ignorance about Islam is bliss, until the ignorant as infidels experience their hate. Then the ignorant become informed about how Islam isn't so blissful.

Of course the BBC are biased, perhaps they the most dangerous because they appear the most impartial of the state supported media (my hat is off to the English, once again). They hold a higher standard of quality than RT and are generally quite informative, so I read news from it as well as The Guardian and The Economist regularly.

It is hard to ask most people to consume news from as many sources as possible and we are shaped in a very uncomfortable way because of it. Trying to understand the minds and motivations of your enemies is a bridge too far for most.

I don't know about Europe, but we have plenty of still existing/recently repealed religious laws here in the US. :lol:

Asifa Quraishi-Landes wrote:But sharia isn’t even “law” in the sense that we in the West understand it. And most devout Muslims who embrace sharia conceptually don’t think of it as a substitute for civil law. Sharia is not a book of statutes or judicial precedent imposed by a government, and it’s not a set of regulations adjudicated in court. Rather, it is a body of Koran-based guidance that points Muslims toward living an Islamic life. It doesn’t come from the state, and it doesn’t even come in one book or a single collection of rules. Sharia is divine and philosophical. The human interpretation of sharia is called “fiqh,” or Islamic rules of right action, created by individual scholars based on the Koran and hadith (stories of the prophet Muhammad’s life). Fiqh literally means “understanding” — and its many different schools of thought illustrate that scholars knew they didn’t speak for God.

Fiqh distinguishes between the spiritual value of an action (how God sees it) and the worldly value of that action (how it affects others). Fiqh rules might obligate a devout Muslim to pray, but it’s not the job of a Muslim ruler to enforce that obligation. Fiqh is not designed to help governments police morality in the way, say, Saudi Arabia does today. According to classical fiqh scholarship, a Muslim ruler’s task was to put forth another type of law, called siyasa, based on what best serves the public good. The most vivid example of this was the recognition of incestuous (mother-son, brother-sister) marriages practiced by some non-Muslim minorities living under Muslim rule, dating back at least to the 14th century, despite the abhorrence, generally, of such marriages to Islam. In other words, sharia doesn’t hold that everything objectionable to Islam should be outlawed.

...In the same way that the Ku Klux Klan’s tactics are a poor representation of Christian practice (despite its claims to be a Christian organization), the Islamic State is the worst place to look to understand what sharia says about punishment and the treatment of innocents and prisoners. It’s true that sharia permits harsh corporal punishment, including amputation of limbs, but fiqh restricts its application. Theft, for example, doesn’t include anything stolen out of hunger or items of low value. (That piece of fruit Jasmine “stole” in “Aladdin” certainly wouldn’t qualify.) Adultery? Yes, corporal punishment for extramarital sex is Koranic in origin, but it comes with an extremely high evidentiary burden of proof: four eye-witnesses. It’s a sin but not one that is the business of the state to punish.


Your masters want you to be a blubbering coward. Islamic law is just as ridiculous as any other law based upon magic and superstition. Muslims don't have superpowers. They're just as lame and shitty as Christians or whatever.

My reason for pointing this out isn't to protect Muslims, as I don't give a fuck. I just hate to see cowardice and posturing for pathetic victimhood. Man up, get a gun if you want, and don't be afraid. Consider your class, and who might want you to live in perpetual fear.

Suntzu wrote:More like 3,800 troops on the streets for a lone wolf attack. :lol:


It seems likely that this attack is of the "lone wolf" type, but deployment of troops is reasonable. Only members of the Muslim community know if other attacks are imminent. Perhaps a copy-cat act. But whether the response is armed police or troops, they will usually be too late. You are being acclimatized to the acceptance of Muslim atrocities against the public, by political leaders and the liberal media. You are expendable, so the Muslim problem can go in the "too hard" file.

In my city just now:

CNN wrote:Man Yelling anti-Muslim, 'anti-everything' slurs, man kills 2, Portland police say

(CNN)Two men were fatally stabbed on a crowded Portland, Oregon, commuter train Friday after they confronted a passenger who was "yelling a gamut of anti-Muslim and anti-everything slurs," a Portland police spokesman said.

"It is unclear if he was directing (slurs) at specific people but witnesses told us he may have been targeting two girls described as Muslim, one wearing a hijab," Portland police Sgt. Pete Simpson told CNN. "We have not been able to find those girls to verify that."

A suspect was in custody and was at a hospital being treated for injuries, according to Simpson.
"This is at the early stages of the investigation. We do not know if the suspect was drunk, on medication, had mental issues or anything else," Simpson said.

The stabbing occurred on a Metropolitan Area Express (MAX) light-rail train, Portland police said.
Witnesses said one of the victims was stabbed in the neck, CNN affiliate KOIN reported.

Portland police said one man was found suffering from traumatic injuries and first responders attempted to save his life, but he died at the scene. The second victim, also stabbed, died at a hospital, KOIN said.
A third passenger who also tried to intervene with the shouting man was injured, police said.


Ugh, thanks you fear-peddling post-modernist feeling-mongers.

@ Steve,
I'm still eager to read up on how "Islam takes over a country". Specifically on the use of "population numbers and intimidation in any given country".

Specific examples would be much appreciated.

I won't hold my breath. We have a long long way to go in the UK till we reach that situation. You must admit?

The vast majority of Muslims in the United Kingdom live in England: 2,660,116 (5.02% of the population).

Since you're still eager...then here ya go. Enjoy.

Note that this list is some years old, so some of the percentage numbers are now higher and need updating.

As long as the Muslim population remains around or under 2% in any given country, they will be for the most part be regarded as a peace-loving minority, and not as a threat to other citizens. This is the case in:
United States — Muslim 0.6%
Australia — Muslim 1.5%
Canada — Muslim 1.9%
China — Muslim 1.8%
Italy — Muslim 1.5%
Norway — Muslim 1.8%

At 2% to 5%, they begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups, often with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs. This is happening in:
Denmark — Muslim 2%
Germany — Muslim 3.7%
United Kingdom — Muslim 2.7%
Spain — Muslim 4%
Thailand — Muslim 4.6%

From 5% on, they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population. For example, they will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature halal on their shelves — along with threats for failure to comply.
This is occurring in:
France — Muslim 8%
Philippines — Muslim 5%
Sweden — Muslim 5%
Switzerland — Muslim 4.3%
The Netherlands — Muslim 5.5%
Trinidad & Tobago — Muslim 5.8%

At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves (within their ghettos) under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islamists is to establish Sharia law over the entire world.

When Muslims approach 10% of the population, they tend to increase
lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions. In Paris , we are already seeing car-burnings.
Any non-Muslim action offends Islam, and results in uprisings and threats, such as in Amsterdam , with opposition to Mohammed cartoons and films about Islam. Such tensions are seen daily, particularly in Muslim
sections, in:
Guyana — Muslim 10%
India — Muslim 13.4%
Kenya — Muslim 10%
Russia — Muslim 15%

After reaching 20% , nations can expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings, and the burnings of Christian churches and Jewish synagogues, such as in:
Ethiopia — Muslim 32.8%
Israel --- Muslim 20%
At 40% , nations experience widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks, and ongoing militia warfare, such as in:
Bosnia — Muslim 40%
Chad — Muslim 53.1%
Lebanon — Muslim 59.7%

From 60% , nations experience unfettered persecution of non-believers of all other religions (including non-conforming Muslims), sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon, and Jizya, the tax placed on infidels, such as in:
Albania — Muslim 70%
Malaysia — Muslim 60.4%
Qatar — Muslim 77.5%
Sudan — Muslim 70%

After 80% , expect daily intimidation and violent jihad, some State-run ethnic cleansing, and even some genocide, as these nations drive out the infidels, and move toward 100% Muslim, such as has been experienced and in some ways is on-going in:
Bangladesh — Muslim 83%
Egypt — Muslim 90%
Gaza — Muslim 98.7%
Indonesia — Muslim 86.1%
Iran — Muslim 98%
Iraq — Muslim 97%
Jordan — Muslim 92%
Morocco — Muslim 98.7%
Pakistan — Muslim 97%
Palestine — Muslim 99%
Syria — Muslim 90%
Tajikistan — Muslim 90%
Turkey — Muslim 99.8%
United Arab Emirates — Muslim 96%

100% will usher in the peace of ‘Dar-es-Salaam’ — the Islamic House of Peace. Here there’s supposed to be peace, because everybody is a Muslim, the Madrasses are the only schools, and the Koran is the only word, such as in:
Afghanistan — Muslim 100%
Saudi Arabia — Muslim 100%
Somalia — Muslim 100%
Yemen — Muslim 100%

Unfortunately, peace is never achieved, as in these 100% states the most radical Muslims intimidate and spew hatred, and satisfy their blood lust by killing less radical Muslims.
