Dearborn Law Enforcement Covering Up "Honor Killings"?

Shocking but not surprising if true.

A civil rights lawsuit filed by Thomas More Law Center (TMLC) on behalf of four Christians wrongfully arrested for proselytizing at an Arab Festival, alleges that Dearborn police and the local level government may be enforcing Sharia law - including covering up "honor killing" murders.

The four Christians, who are members of Acts 17 Apologetics Ministries, make this claim on their Answering Muslims website:

On a horrifying note, one of the police officers in the jail told us that there are honor killings in Dearborn but that they get covered up by the police department. He said that he had walked into houses where girls had been beheaded or had had their throats slit. (But check the local newspapers. You won't find any mention of these crimes.) The officer told us that some of the officers in the department support what we're doing.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Dearborn media was complicit in helping to cover up these crimes as well.

These allegations are included in the 96 page complaint filed by TMLC.

A full account of the events that led up to the arrest and, ultimately, filing the lawsuit can be read at Answering Muslims. But not only can you read the full account, most of it is documented with video, which is also available at the link.

Charles Johnson Wins 'Dhimwit Of The Month' Award

Dhimwit of the Month Honors

Dhim·wit (dïm-wît) - A non-Muslim member of a free society that abets the stated cause of Islamic domination with remarkable gullibility and creativity. A dhimwit is always quick to extend sympathy to the very enemy that would take away his or her own freedom (or life) if given the opportunity.

Anyone who has made a fool out of the mainstream media as often as the Charles Johnson has can’t be all bad – even if he is making a bigger fool out of himself these days. Five years ago, the talented creator of the Little Green Footballs blog and “co-founder” of Pajamas Media (a top-notch web magazine) went toe-to-toe with CBS News and not only took down Dan Rather, but also won a great deal of respect for on-line journalism in the process…

Then things got weird. Really weird.

Charles' great & insightful reply:

So, It's Haraam?

Auschwitz Ale?

Some of Britain's school kids think Auschwitz is a type of beer rather than a Nazi death camp, according to a new study.

A survey of around 1,000 high school students aged 11 to 16 found 10 percent of youngsters were unsure of what it was and 2 percent thought it was a brand of beer.

Not surprising. How could they know what Auschwitz is when they've never been taught about it?

Nevada Joint Terrorism Task Force Targeting 'Paper Terrorists'

Why waste resources on arresting terrorists who want to impose the Sharia, commit random acts of mass murder, stone raped women to death, or behead those who refuse to submit to Islam?

It's those Jewish money launderers who are the real threat! /s

LAS VEGAS (AP) - Four members of an anti-government group have been arrested on charges that include money laundering, tax evasion and weapons possession [Ed: this article later states the 'weapons possession' is ONE unregistered machine gun], federal prosecutors said Friday.

Authorities said the four men are members of the Sovereign Movement, a group that attempts to overthrow the government and defy authority with "paper terrorism." The arrests in Las Vegas on Thursday capped a three-year investigation into the group's activities led by the Nevada Joint Terrorism Task Force, U.S. Attorney for Nevada Greg Brower said.

A grand jury indictment in federal court in Las Vegas names Samuel Davis, 54, of Council, Idaho; Shawn Rice, 46, of Seligman, Ariz.; Harold Call, 67, of Las Vegas; and Jan Lindsey, of Henderson.

Davis and Rice are accused of laundering roughly $1.3 million for undercover FBI agents, who described the money as loot from a bank fraud scheme. Davis and Rice are charged with one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering and 30 counts of money laundering. If convicted, they face up to 20 years in prison and a $500,000 fine on each count.

Davis was described by prosecutors as a national leader in the Sovereign Movement, whose members believe government licenses, taxes and currency are invalid. Rice described himself as a lawyer and rabbi devoted to anti-government teaching, authorities said.

Note the article doesn't say the arrested men committed the 'bank fraud scheme,' they are simply accused of laundering FBI money. And as for the tax evasion, the task force could have had more success investigating the Obama Administration.

If I were a Nevada resident, I would be interested in knowing how much of my tax money went into this investigation which netted only 4 suspects, charged with laundering a relatively small amount of money and possessing one unregistered rifle. And while we're at it, how much is being spent to combat real Homegrown Terrorism?

Newsweek Labels Israel "Palestinian Territory"

I see Brian is on the ball with the story about Newsweek's latest cover. The dhimmis at Newsweek suggest how to 'live' with radical Islam. I'm assuming that's not an inside joke, and that in 'live' they mean accepting as a part of life, as opposed to mocking victims of Islamic terrorists.

I could be wrong there.

But Newsweek online also includes this interactive map. If you mouse-over the 'Palestinian Territory', you get this:

FYI, that's a map of ISRAEL, not Palestine.

Hmm, now I'm starting to believe that 'live' is a bad dhimmi joke...

[UPDATE] Infidel Blogger's Alliance not too long ago posted The Evolution of an Appeaser. It included a list of failed strategies that ultimately led to WW2:

• Stage 1 (negation): Germany is not at all rearming.


• Stage 2 (bagatellisation): Okay, but not very much.


• Stage 3 (relativating): Okay, but in relation to GB, France and Soviets, it is a tiny army.


• Stage 4 (psychologization): Okay, but try to understand how they must feel surrounded, yes, under siege by many other nations!


• Stage 5 (disengagement): Okay, but now it is too dangerous to confront them.


• Stage 6 (appeasement): For hell, don't provoke them! That will only worsen the situation.


• Stage 7 (resignation): We can't do anything about it.

When I initially read this, I optimistically thought us between stage 4 and stage 5. It seems Newsweek would leap straight to stage 7...

It Shouldn't Happen To Infidels Either...

Ignoring the victims of London's 7/7 bombing by Muslim terrorists, Channel 4 instead explores unreasonable anti-Muslim sentiment among the Infidels.

On the third anniversary of the London bombings, Britain’s Channel 4 screened an hour-long programme rhetorically titled “It Shouldn’t Happen to a Muslim” about the rise of anti-Muslim sentiment in the country since the fateful day on July 7, 2005 when four British-born Muslims of Pakistani origin blew themselves up on the London Underground killing 53 people in what, with a little journalistic licence, has been described as Britain’s worst terror attack in living memory.

Could it have something to do with the fact MUSLIMS are responsible for nearly all acts of terrorism in the world today?

Could it be that a majority of all world conflicts involve Muslim aggression?

Could it be that too many Muslims take violent verses from the quran literally - verses such as "And slay them wherever ye find them..." and promises great rewards in paradise for committing such acts of terrorism?

Or could it just be the entire ideology that teaches that all who reject the Islamic god and his pedophile prophet should be converted, subjugated, or killed?

Nah. It's probably just Islamophobia.

Reasoned Jihad Against Muslims

Cathy Young, in her article The Jihad Against Muslims, wrote:

Even in milder form, there are sweeping generalizations that reduce any social or political problem anywhere to a "Muslim problem" as long as there are Muslims involved. Take this description by Mark Steyn: "There are many trouble spots around the world, but as a general rule, it’s easy to make an educated guess at one of the participants: Muslims vs. Jews in ‘Palestine,’ Muslims vs. Hindus in Kashmir, Muslims vs. Christians in Africa, Muslims vs. Buddhists in Thailand, Muslims vs. Russians in the Caucasus, Muslims vs. backpacking tourists in Bali."

This account not only omits many non-Islamic trouble spots, from Korea to Colombia, but also implicitly presumes that Muslims are the guilty parties and Islam is the problem in every conflict listed.

True, Ms. Young, there are trouble spots that do not involve Islam, as there are acts of terrorism that do not involve Muslims. However, if one rationally considers that a "faith" which comprises only 20% of the total world population is involved in almost 90% of all world conflicts and more than 95% of all acts of terrorism, then the perspective becomes clear.

It is indisputable that Islam disproportionately behaves more violently than all other faiths combined. That isn't Islamophobia, that isn't racism, that isn't bigotry. That is a simple, cold fact.

Young also writes in her article:

There are regions, such as Bosnia, where the Muslim populations are modern and moderate, and there are progressive and reformist forces within Islam.

If you cannot see the truth, is it because you don't look. Here is a picture of a couple of Kosovo's "modern and moderate" Muslims Ms. Young lauds:

A Double Standard

Question: Who poses the greatest threat to innocent lives and maintaining the peace - Muslim terrorists or laughing Infidels?

If you said "Muslim terrorists" YOU ARE WRONG!

POLICE have agreed to consult a panel of Muslim leaders before mounting counter-terrorist raids or arrests. Members of the panel will offer their assessment of whether information police have on a suspect is too flimsy and will also consider the consequences on community relations of a raid.

Members will be security vetted and will have to promise not to reveal any intelligence they are shown. They will not have to sign the Official Secrets Act.

The correct answer in the dhimmitude nation of Great Britain is "laughing Infidels":

A British man who was so amused with BBC1’s "Have I Got News for You" that he fell off his couch in a fit of laughter was not so happy when it got him arrested and pepper sprayed.

Christopher Cocker, 36, collapsed on the floor after laughing at a joke on TV, but his neighbor who heard the thud thought something bad had happened and called the police, the Daily Mail reported on Wednesday.

According to police, Cocker initially was cooperative but quickly became "aggressive" when asked his name and personal information. Cocker tried to shut his door on the officers, at which point he was pepper sprayed through a crack in the door.

Cocker then was handcuffed, arrested and taken to court, the Daily Mail reported. An unidentified police spokesman told the Mail that, given Cocker’s aggression, they acted appropriately.

[...]

Cocker told the Mail he never thought he would end up in court for laughing at his favorite comedian.

Well, Mr. Cocker, I never thought the West would so quickly cower to Islamofascists and non-Muslims would be so vilified for common decency and humanity. Welcome to the caliphate.

Islam: What The West Needs To Know

"In no way is Islamic shariah - Islamic government - compatible with Western understandings of human rights and freedom of conscience. Traditional Islam forbids conversion from Islam, forbids anyone to leave Islam. There's no way out. And it forbids Muslims and non-Muslims to live as equals in society. It mandates the second-class status of non-Muslims, forbidding them to hold authority over Muslims, forbidding them to hold certain jobs as a result. It even mandated in history that houses of worship of Jews and Christians were neither to be built or repaired, making communities relegated to a perpetual state of decline."
~Robert Spencer

Genocide - any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such:

• killing members of the group;
• causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;
• deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life, calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;
• imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;
• forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.

Priorities, Priorities, Priorities...

The AP sets its priorities - children dying, news as usual. But reporting the desecration of a Quran and watching a U.S. General BEG for forgiveness - Priceless.

BAGHDAD (AP) - An American soldier used a Quran, the Islamic holy book, for target practice in a predominantly Sunni area west of Baghdad, prompting an apology from the U.S. military, a spokesman said Sunday.

Maj. Gen. Jeffery Hammond responded in the most dhimmi fashion:

"I come before you here seeking your forgiveness. In the most humble manner I look in your eyes today and I say please forgive me and my soldiers."

As if that heartfelt groveling wasn't enough:

The commander also read a letter of apology by the shooter, and another military official kissed a Quran and presented it to the tribal leaders, according to CNN.

Meanwhile...

Separately, mortar shells slammed into a residential area north of the Iraqi capital, killing at least four people and wounding 30, most children playing outside, officials said Sunday.

But there was no apology for the bloodshed of the children by Islamic insurgents.

Bandaged girls and boys with bloodstained clothes cried as they were packed two to a bed at a hospital in Sadr City, a Shiite stronghold where most of the recent fighting has occurred.

UPDATE: Iraqi leaders refuse to accept the apology. Perhaps a public beheading of the offending soldier would suffice?

the Iraqi Islamic Party -- which said it reacted to the news "with deep resentment and indignation" -- wants the "severest of punishments" for the action to serve as a lesson for the future.

"Such assaults have recurred over the past few years; therefore, the apology alone is no longer sufficient," the party said in a statement. "The U.S. military should take preventative measures considering the feelings of Muslims."

When is America going to grow some balls when it comes to these IslamoFascists?

University Newspaper Apologises For Anti-Israel Diatribe

On March 20th, 2008, HonestReporting Canada exposed a university newspaper paper that justified the Mercaz Harav seminary terrorist attack in Jerusalem. Eight unarmed students, mostly children, were gunned down by a Palestinian terrorist.

Excalibur, a campus newspaper of York University, had written of the seminary:

"...The school has direct connections with the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), and its graduating students are those whom are committing a holocaust in Gaza in the Palestinians eyes."

The article goes on to suggest students at this seminary are being indoctrinated to hate an entire race of people, and staged protests inciting violence, not unlike the ragings of a certain, unnamed religious group:

"After this incident, thousands went out protesting in Jerusalem, cheering 'death to the Arabs!' Note here that they're wishing death to all Arabs whether they are Palestinians or not. This makes many understand, or at least assume, that the teachings of many of those whom have protested are against the Arabs as a whole, not just against the Palestinians."

The article has since been removed, but you can still read it here.

HonestReporting Canada is now reporting the campus newspaper has apologized.

Dutch Man Burned To Death By Muslim Youths

A playground caretaker was burned to death in his apartment. Muslim youths are suspected. Another Muslim youth justifies the attack claiming:

"He said we made too much noise and that we should pick up our trash. Or otherwise go back to Turkey. But I am Dutch and my parents come from Morocco."

Oh, the humanity! He said they should pick up their trash? That bastard! Kill that infidel for insulting the prophet! insulting Islam! hurting Muslim sensibilities! expecting youth to show some respect!

Dutch Flag Banned In Dutch Schools

Cals College in IJsselstein has prohibited two of it's students to have Dutch flags on their bags.

The 16 year old boy and his friend where told by the director of their school that they "urgently should consider" to remove the Dutch flags from their bags, it could provoke other students, mainly Moroccan students.

Dutch Beg Forgiveness From Their Muslim Masters

Dutch dhimmis acknowledge their places under Islamic rule by apologizing for offending Muslims.

A Dutch activist group has called for a mass online apology campaign to "smother out" the soon-to-be-released anti-Islamic movie by a right wing politician.

Dutch lawmaker Geert Wilders says he plans to broadcast his film “Fitna” -- Challenge in Arabic – on the web sometime in the next two weeks. The 15-minute movie denounces the Quran as a “fascist” book.

On Monday, Amsterdam-based cultural organization Mediamatic called on Dutch citizens "to make their own version of Fitna in which they apologize for Wilders' embarrassing behavior".

Stick a fork in them. They're done.

Network Solutions Caves To Islamists

My, god. How far we have sank into dhimmitude when networks "investigate" legitimate questions about Islam. I found this at "Fitna" the Movie site:

Islamic Attack In NYC Met With Indifference

An unprovoked anti-semitic attack in New York City results in one attacker getting hit by a car. His friends blame the victim and begin beating him shouting, "ALLAH ACKBAR!" Police dismiss the Israeli's complaint of it being a religiously motivated attack by suggesting he doesn't really understand what "Allah ackbar" means.

Islamic terrorism is alive in America. Unfortunately, authorities are trying to conceal the fact.

Welcome to dhimmitude.

Uria Ohana, originally from Kfar Chabad, entered a subway station in the affluent Park Slope neighborhood in Brooklyn Tuesday evening, on his way to a lecture in Manhattan, when he noticed a group of Arab teenagers congregated on a bench in the station.

Ohana did not exchange words or make eye contact with the group, but proceeded upstairs to his train.

On his way, he felt someone grab his kippa from his head and then heard laughter. Ohana decided to chase the boys to retrieve his kippa.

The 18-year-old boy who grabbed the kippa left the subway station and ran into the street, where he was hit by a car, breaking his leg.

While Ohana chased the boy, the other teenagers began chasing him, screaming "Allah akbar."

"They screamed at me, 'Did you see what happened to him because of you?'" said Ohana, a Chabad-Lubavitch rabbinical assistant who works in Wellesley, Massachusetts.

Two of the Arab boys then started kicking and punching Ohana in the face.

"As soon as they started screaming, I understood [the attack] was racial," said Ohana.

The crime is being investigated as aggravated harassment and a possible bias crime, according to a New York Police Department spokeswoman. "I am almost sure it will be charged as a hate crime," said the spokeswoman.

"I'm sad that this kind of attack is coming to New York after seeing this in Israel," said Ohana. "An Arab teenager attacking a Jew for being a Jew scares me as a Jew."

Ohana said one police officer brushed the incident off as a case of a teenager who "doesn't know what 'Allah akbar' means.

The Pact of Dhimmis

Are you willing to make the following pledge? If so, you may be a perfect candidate for dhimmitude!

In the name of God, the Merciful and Compassionate. This is a letter to the servant of God Umar [ibn al-Khattab], Commander of the Faithful, from the Christians of such-and-such a city. When you came against us, we asked you for safe-conduct (aman) for ourselves, our descendants, our property, and the people of our community, and we undertook the following obligations toward you:

We shall not build, in our cities or in their neighborhood, new monasteries, Churches, convents, or monks' cells, nor shall we repair, by day or by night, such of them as fall in ruins or are situated in the quarters of the Muslims.

We shall keep our gates wide open for passersby and travelers. We shall give board and lodging to all Muslims who pass our way for three days.

We shall not give shelter in our churches or in our dwellings to any spy, nor bide him from the Muslims.

We shall not teach the Qur'an to our children.

We shall not manifest our religion publicly nor convert anyone to it. We shall not prevent any of our kin from entering Islam if they wish it.

We shall show respect toward the Muslims, and we shall rise from our seats when they wish to sit.

We shall not seek to resemble the Muslims by imitating any of their garments, the qalansuwa, the turban, footwear, or the parting of the hair. We shall not speak as they do, nor shall we adopt their kunyas.

We shall not mount on saddles, nor shall we gird swords nor bear any kind of arms nor carry them on our- persons.

We shall not engrave Arabic inscriptions on our seals.

We shall not sell fermented drinks.

We shall clip the fronts of our heads.

We shall always dress in the same way wherever we may be, and we shall bind the zunar round our waists

We shall not display our crosses or our books in the roads or markets of the Muslims. We shall use only clappers in our churches very softly. We shall not raise our voices when following our dead. We shall not show lights on any of the roads of the Muslims or in their markets. We shall not bury our dead near the Muslims.

We shall not take slaves who have beenallotted to Muslims.

We shall not build houses overtopping the houses of the Muslims.

(When I brought the letter to Umar, may God be pleased with him, he added, "We shall not strike a Muslim.")

We accept these conditions for ourselves and for the people of our community, and in return we receive safe-conduct.

If we in any way violate these undertakings for which we ourselves stand surety, we forfeit our covenant [dhimma], and we become liable to the penalties for contumacy and sedition.

Umar ibn al-Khittab replied: Sign what they ask, but add two clauses and impose them in addition to those which they have undertaken. They are: "They shall not buy anyone made prisoner by the Muslims," and "Whoever strikes a Muslim with deliberate intent shall forfeit the protection of this pact."

Medieval Sourcebook: Pact of Umar, 7th Century

The Majority Should Be Willing To Compromise

"The majority should be willing to compromise," she said. "I think that's just basic courtesy. We must show tolerance and respect for all others."

Spoken like a true Islamist. No doubt, she also supports that basic courtesy for the minority of Jews living in the Middle East? For the Serbian minority in Kosovo?

The above is a quote from a Harvard Muslim student who supports the University's decision to exclude men from one of their gyms several hours a day. Yet, when reversed, when it's a non-Muslim minority living in a Muslim society, there is no compromise. The non-Muslim must live according to Islamic standards, however low they may be, or face unjust, irrational and sometimes cruel punishments.

Another thing to think about - This Muslimah is a Harvard student. She is obviously very intelligent to get into such a prestigious school. Yet she believes Muhammad is a messenger of God. She honors a man who raped a child. She worships a man who had thousands slaughtered - many in front of their families. She praises a man who owned slaves, raped women, and is responsible for more suffering and cruelty in modern times than all other cultures and religions combined. She trusts a "holy" book filled with hatred, intolerance, contradictions, and absurdities.

And she is a Harvard student.

Does that say more about the school for allowing such a person, or about the caliber of people, however intelligent, who choose Islam?

This "respect us or else" mentality is indicative of the entire cult that calls itself the 'religion of peace.' The question is, do we gladly step into the role of dhimmis and show the respect they demand but haven't earned, or do we stand firm in our belief that all should be treated equal?

Welcome to Al Walmart

(Hat Tip: Jawa Report, Red Rom)

From Debbie Schlussel:

This store [Walmart in Dearborn, Mich.] is not "Arab-American." It's ISLAMIC. That's why the Walmart panderers met with extremist, Hezbollah-supporting Imams, and terrorist Hamad. And that's why Newsweek writes about his second wife (his first was a sham marriage for citizenship when he violated his student visa), Arwa Hamad (who has a penchant for filing insurance claims and lawsuits over "car accidents"--not, of course, mentioned in the Newsweek article). No mention if there are footbaths in the locker room for the store's many Islamic employees, but I'm sure they're there.

And, to make matters worse, Walmart hired Suehaila Amen, an openly anti-Semitic, anti-Israel, pro-Hezbollah Shi'ite Muslim to give ethnic sensitivity training to Walmart employees. Yup, an anti-Semite supporter of Islamic terrorists giving sensitivity training. Sounds about right. As a teacher in the Dearborn Public Schools, Amen violated campaign finance laws by using Dearborn Public School resources to campaign for her Muslim friend and Medicaid defrauder Ismael Ahmed when he ran for University of Michigan regent (he now runs the State of Michigan's Medicaid unit, after defrauding it). Yup, Walmart is into ethics . . . Islamic world "ethics".

But it gets even worse. Walmart is violating the law--engaging in price-fixing agreements with the Islamic community and agreeing not to underprice its local Hezbollah-financing Shi'ite stores, so as not to put them out of business. Why will they do this for Ahmed and Mohamed, but not Mom and Pop Smith in other American communities? If I were one of the many businesses across America driven into the ground by Walmart, I'd sue Walmart on discrimination and unfair competition grounds, since the retail giant only helps its Muslim competitors stay in business. Who wants to join me in my complaint against Walmart to the Federal Trade Commission for unfair, anti-competitive practices and price-fixing? It's patently illegal. I wish I could say this is capitalism at its worst. But it's not capitalism or free market competition.

UK Muslim Doctors: Hygiene Is Against Islam

(Sigh) Where does this insanity end?

Medics in hospitals in at least three major English cities have refused to follow the regulations aimed at helping tackle superbugs because of their faith, it has been revealed.

Women medical students at Alder Hey children's hospital in Liverpool objected to rolling up their sleeves when washing their hands and removing arm coverings in theatre, claiming it is regarded as immodest.

Similar concerns were raised at Leicester University -and Sheffield University reported a case of a Muslim medic refusing to "scrub" because it left her forearms exposed.

Some students have said that they would prefer to quit the course rather than expose their arms, but hygiene experts said no exceptions should be made on religious grounds.
