Finland: Lutheran priest defrocked for condemning Chechen jihadist

An update on this story. Juha Molari condemned Doku Umarov, one of the world's most wanted jihadists, who is believed to be behind numerous attacks on innocent civilians and the bombing of Moscow's Domodedovo Airport. Umarov has also claimed responsibility for the Beslan massacre.

Perhaps Finland has had no Benjamin Franklin to warn its establishment against trading liberty for security, and indeed, they will soon have neither. It is Molari who is being treated as dangerous, as a terrorist. First, he was hauled in for "inciting racial hatred." In this latest development, he has been removed from the priesthood and dismissed from his parish. Now, that's sure to advance the cause of world peace, especially in Chechnya. Yeah. That'll show 'em.

"Finnish pastor defrocked for speaking out against terrorists," from RT, April 14 (thanks to Pokermutt):

A Finnish Priest has been defrocked for openly speaking out against a terrorist website hosted in the country.
­"The Espo chapter of the Lutheran Church of Finland has dismissed Juha Molari as the pastor of the Raseborg Lutheran parish. He has been defrocked and deprived of all means of subsistence," Johan Backman, Finnish human rights activist and the Chairman of the Finnish-Caucasus Friendship Society, told Interfax on Thursday.
Juha Molari had earlier been charged in Helsinki for inciting racial hatred, after he described one of the world's most-wanted criminals as a terrorist. Police questioned pastor Molari after he gave an interview to RT in which he discussed Doku Umarov, the man behind the Moscow Metro and airport bombings.
Later on Thursday, Johan Backman, a Finnish human rights activist and the chairman of the Finnish-Caucasus Friendship Society, told RT that Finland is sheltering terrorists in the country because of very strong lobbying from the political elite and a manipulated public opinion.
“The Finnish ruling elite is protecting the terrorists and terrorist activities on Finnish soil, and they are also trying to change public opinion and to protect the activity of Doku Umarov in Finland,” said Backman. “Our security police tried to close down the web resources of Doku Umarov in 2004, but that was unsuccessful because of lobbying by leading Finnish politicians.”
Russia's number one Chechen terrorist, Umarov, is also high-up on the international most-wanted list.
The Kavkaz-Centre site was the first to publish the terrorist's words on the attacks he has claimed responsibility for – the Beslan school siege; the Nevsky express and Moscow Metro bombings; and most recently, the Domodedovo Airport blast.
The website is banned in Russia, but in Finland the Kavkaz-Centre enjoys quite a comfortable standing not only on the internet, but also in downtown Helsinki.
The priest was the first to openly say this was an outrage, and the reaction was quick to follow.
He got an email, apparently from Dagestan, saying that if he doesn’t “stop the fight against the Kavkaz-Centre, they will cut his head off and his family’s.”
Juha Molari went to the police, but instead ended up being persecuted himself for criticizing a legally operating organization. The police refused to close the website and to open a criminal case following threats against the pastor. They answered that Doku Umarov is the president of a separatist government and a respectable person.

Was Beslan a respectable massacre? Was Domodedovo a respectable bombing?

Unbelieveable! When I was little we had a coupleof Finnish au-pairs stay with us, later we went for a vacation with them in Finland, a lovely place. On that trip we visited a relative of one of the au-pairs who had been in the resistance during the war and visited the cave he had hidden in. One of the girls loved Israel so much she later moved their with her husband and became a tour guide to visiting Finns. Whatever happened to that lovely country?

Guess this story illustrates the axiom from the Talmud (Kohelet Rabba 7:16):-

Those who are kind to the cruel, will in the end, be cruel to the kind.

Mathew 24

9 “Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me.

10 At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other,

It is upon us.

Marisol:
You're second paragraph in the preamble to the story is very good and oh so true. It is so unfathomed by,
"the existers, whistling in no-man's-land".
You said,
"Perhaps Finland has had no Benjamin Franklin to warn its establishment against trading liberty for security, and indeed, they will soon have neither."

Marisol:
Bravo to your insight.

Ooops. "Your" not "You're". I better take a nap.

This is crazy. What the hell is wrong with the Lutheran Church of Finland that it could do this? Has it completely lost its collective mind?

This is evil - but Scandinavian countries are really in the control of mostly fascist God-Hating Socialist Left. Even the Churches are in their hands I suspect! And yet, like God-hating Socialist Hitler/the Nazis,the Left love Islam; because both love fascism - the control of power through totalitarian rule!

The Lutherans have take their 30 pieces of silver, what ever happened to, "Here I stand can do no other!"

Damn, do the Finish elites realy think that an islamic state would be a better neighbor then the Russian federation? Once the war between Slavs and Muslims start in Russia I dont think Finland will profit from it in any way.

Even to a cynical Jihad Watch reader like myself this is incredible. What do the Finns hope to gain by their depraved support for terrorism?

Did anyone honestly believe that there would be a lack of bias in a piece from RT (the channel formerly known as Russia Today).

More information on that Finnish pastor is on Tundra Tabloids. Apparently one of the backers of the Finnish pastor Juha Molari is Johan Bäckman, a Finnish Marxist pro-Russian academic. Their small group of misfits (Finnish Anti-Fascist Committee) support more mosque building and the integration of Sharia Law into the Finnish legal system.

The reason why Bäckman supports sharia law is the fact that Russian government is appeasing islamists by allowing the Russian-supported leader of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, to introduce sharia law in the autonomous republic. This violates the Russian constitution and will not do any good in the long run, but it is the current official policy of Russia and is therefore supported by Bäckman and the Anti-Fascist committee.

Of course RT will bias their reports in favour of anyone associated with this pro-Russian group.

This makes me sick to my stomach. Finland should look to recent events in "palestine" to see how friendly infidels are ultimately treated.

See also both kgs59 comments on the previous JW article about Juha Molari.

The Juha Molari story is much more complicated than how it appears. Yes he is possibly being wrongly persecuted by the Finnish state, but what he's being investigated for is his statement that all Chechen refugees coming to Finland are linked to terrorism.

I've been following how this story is being picked up by the various English language blogs and media, and they are only touching the surface of the story. Please follow this link here. KGS

Typical "Mainstream Protestant" church: no enemies except for truth.

They can deny the divinity of Jesus Christ, deny the inspiration of the Scriptures, add goddess worship to their practices, and even declare themselves "Christian Atheists", but call a spade a spade, and you're FIRED!

Venerable Bede: I'll tell you what happened to "Here I stand...":

There was a broken-down car on the side of the road in Saxony, on which the driver attached a note: Ich stehe hir, ich kannst nicht anderes. Gott hilf mir, Amen.

Hello Tom:
I can't figure out all the background to this story. I went to the Tundra Tabloids website and came away with the impression that anything pro-russian is ipso facto bad; I disagree with that drift. They are the only ones talking sense on the Libyan issue.
I was concentrating more on the employment and legal woes of the Pastor for what he primarily said about terrorists as it relates to free speech in Finland and how the political elite and journalists are out to get him.
I'll keep following the story.
This thing about Russia bending on Sharia in Chechnya is recognition of the essentially Islamic nature of that society and an attempt to buy some peace. They probably have a game plan and I hope that includes cutting Chechnya loose, ridding Russia of Muslims, and repatriation of Russians living in predominantly muslim republics.
This Backman sounds wacko.

You are right. The sheer improbability of the story as presented here alone is enough to cast suspicion on the sources, and the information contained in the Tundra Tabloids link settles the matter completely. Nothing to see here, folks.

Only in you big fantasy wet dreams will russia be rid of muslims- Russia supports the Islamist regime in Sudan, in exchange, many Sudanese students go to Russia on study abroad programs and end up staying.

the RIA novsti, a RUSSIAN news agency, wrote an article in which it noted Russia FULLY supported the sudan government-

http://en.rian.ru/analysis/20110109/162045034.html

"Russia’s northern bias

Moscow has good relations with Khartoum and President al-Bashir, who in 2009 pledged friendship and many joint projects in the oil and energy sector. But his pledges were no more than declarations of intent on most issues, with the notable exception of student exchanges, which bring Sudanese students to Russian universities. Most of these students strive to remain in Russia after graduation.

The architect of Beslan and other terrorist attacks, was the Chechen Shamil Basayev, who was linked to the Russian FSB, when he, effectively allied with Russia, fought for Abkhazia against Georgia. He slipped through Russian FSB checkpoints strangely without being detained several times. Many of the "chechen mujahideen", fought for Russia in abkhazia during the war against Georgia in the early 90's.

I said,
"This Backman sounds wacko."
I take that back. I just reviewed the video that I mentioned today and he sounds good to me. He is strong in his anti-terrorist stance, knows what he knows, and speaks forthrightly. Tundra Tabloids mislead me; they should try and connect the dots.
If Backman said he would like to see a mosque in every Finnish town he is deluded in not knowing that the apple that Islam is rotten to the core.

"They probably have a game plan and I hope that includes cutting Chechnya loose, ridding Russia of Muslims, and repatriation of Russians living in predominantly muslim republics."

Sorry to disapoint you but I doubt the clique that runs Russia now has any "plan" besides holding stability in Russia long enough to grow rich by selling oil.

I mean the writing is on the wall the number of Europeans in Russia decreases very quickly, the number of Muslims increases. The governments solution to this is let the Russian men drink themselvs to death while importing MASSES of workers from muslim countrys. They hope to have peace as long as possible so they direct the anger of the population against the "weset" (the only onec who dont bite back much) while praising Islam and China (who bite back strongly).
The thing with Kadyrov is, this mounteneers would have needed MUCH more violence (maybe even near compleete extermination) to be submitted by force, Moscow decided to set a pupped despot instead who had a large clan behind him (and giving all long time Russia loyalists among the Chechens to him to do as he saw fit (mostly he killed them, some flew)). The problem is the Chechens wouldnt acknologe a ruler who seemd weak to them so its logical that he had to act "strong" to keep the Chechens satesfied so that they dont go in masses against Russia again, thats why Moscow alows Kadyrov to act as if he and not the Russian government has won the war and Kadyrov has all the freedom to create a sharia state in Chechnya and build up his reputation as the greatest muslim leader in Russia. In the long term this strategy is devestating for Russia but so is about all of Putins policy, so I dont think that Russias survival is part of his "long term strategy".....

"Many of the "chechen mujahideen", fought for Russia in abkhazia during the war against Georgia in the early 90's."

Well while I think its foolish of me to respond to "Horse"....
I will make it short: Yes Caukasian tribal formations were used by Elzin against Georgia, the cut of a LOT of heads and taped it and took a lot of Georgians as slaves....but soon they turned against Russia and began to cut of Russian heads and driving cars through Russia and the Ukraine to just drag people into them and selling them as slaves on actual slave markets.....

Thet Basaev was an allie of Russia after this is as foolish to say as that Osama bin Laden was Americas allie after the Afgan war and seems to come from the same conspirecy ridden eastern culture....

Oh and "Horse" one last thing: You seem to be very proud about being an Arab, please explain to me what makes you proud about being an Arab? What is there to be proud about?

RussiaToday featured an article praising Sudanese islamist leader Hassan Al Turabi, who also defended bin laden during the interview

http://rt.com/news/turabi-sudan/


"Nothing to see here, folks"

While I agree that things are far more complex here at leat the lunacy of the Finish authoritys can be seen by reading this sentence: "Doku Umarov is the president of a separatist government and a respectable person."
So the terrorist and self proclaimed "Emir" of the North Caucasian Emirate is a "respectable person"
At least this is something that is "to see here", dont you think?

When did I say I was Arab? When did I even mention the word Arab?

What you should be concerned about is the thousands of Russian prostitutes in arab states like Dubai in the United Arab Emirates, and all the Russian women in the harems of the Arab Emirs of the gulf. Don't lecture me, who is not an arab, of being not proud, since your women are apparently suckers for arab men.

I never saw a single Russian man, ever, with an Arab woman.

By the way, don't you Russians typically blame this on a "jewish conspiracy"? claiming the jews are selling Russian women to arab sheikhs and that your Mafia is jewish? I dare you to spill out whats in your head right now, I'd bet that its exactly what you think- like a typical Russian, its the "jews" who are kidnapping our white women and selling them to the arabs.

After all, you were the ones who attacked and murdered the jews, raped them and drove the first wave of Russian jews to palestine, spill out what you're thinking now.

I know that Jews are still spat upon, attacked and knifed by Russians even today.

Even in an arab country, a jew is much safer than in Russia.

So the terrorist and self proclaimed "Emir" of the North Caucasian Emirate is a "respectable person"
At least this is something that is "to see here", dont you think?

It's horrible, to be sure, but we are used to this sort of thing. The PLO terrorists have been considered "respectable" by the whole world for decades, for instance.

WOW what a wawe of lies and exagerations.....

Even in an arab country, a jew is much safer than in Russia.

I mean there are still a lot of Jews in Russia last time I loocked....
And Jews take many important positions in Russias economy, politics and entertainment industry, whatever one may say about the Russian government it battles aniti-semetism....

And yes there is much conspirecy talking among Russians but it still not even comes close to what is widly believed in the Arab world.....

"What you should be concerned about is the thousands of Russian prostitutes in arab states like Dubai in the United Arab Emirates, and all the Russian women in the harems of the Arab Emirs of the gulf. Don't lecture me, who is not an arab, of being not proud, since your women are apparently suckers for arab men.

I never saw a single Russian man, ever, with an Arab woman."

Well.... you are clearly a Muslim tribal, your whole view about woman and men shows it..... And yes Muslims are taking, raping and enslaving Russian woman constantly, often with the help of other Russians, as I said Russia is deing.....

Oh and what is there to be proud about if a barbaric tribal is thought by Europeans how to drill oil and so he gets money to fill his harem with bautifull women, Russia produced many sientists and men of culture who contributed to Europes great culture, Arabs just destroyed and parasited on other cultures, unable to advance because of Islam, just being prowd about how much stuff and woman they can steal from others....

"After all, you were the ones who attacked and murdered the jews, raped them and drove the first wave of Russian jews to palestine, spill out what you're thinking now."

I think you are a barbarian thats all and if it comes to "attacked and murdered the jews, raped them" there was mass murder of Jews by mostly Ukrainian peasents and Cossaks (Jews were forbidden to settle in "Russian" land) during the Civil war (1918-1920) But if you are refering to the pogroms before, I have to disapoint you, even Jewish organisations state the death toll of them at some hundred, which is not even comming near to the mass slaughters in the Muslim world.......+ the Imperial government persecuted members of pogroms (even if often reluctantly) and sentenced many to hard force labor.

Realy you seem to bee so happy to finaly see an European country in progressed phase of islamisation dont you?
Sadly the same thing that is hapening to Russia now may hapen to all of Europe soon....

And I know far to many Jews personaly to think like you think (and because of what you transfere your thoughts on me), strangly most Jews I saw were much stronger Russian nationalists then I ever was..... Most Russian Jews who are still in Russia clearly identifie with the country (what cant be said about most Muslims)....

"When did I say I was Arab? When did I even mention the word Arab?"

Not here but on other threaeds you praised arabs strongly, but whoever you are I just ask you a simple question that will be not difficult to answer: Are you proud about the people you belong too?

Well I think you are right about the other things.

I have seen little of "Russia taday" but what I saw is but a watered down version of the propaganda that is thrown on people in Russia from the TV day by day.....

Trying to play the world power while the mere EXISTANCE of the country is thretened.....

I think Putin and co think that if the Russians believe they are a "super power" they will not fight the muslim saveges who mor and more behave as if the country belongs to them (after all they are our friends in the war against the EVIL WEST). The official propaganda even begins to shuger coat the time of the Tatar yoke and more and more developes the Sovjet era idea of Russia being an Asian country that must stay with the "poor colonized people" against the West..... But what this theory dosnt take into acount is that for the islamic world Russia is just as European as Germany.....

We've all heard of Russian Jews like Vladimir Zhirinovsky-

denying the truth isn't going to help

Bäckmann (Backman) has taken and takes part a lot in such demonstrators where e.g. slogan lik "hang the president Ryti" is written. Ryti was one of the presidents of Finland durin WWII, when Finland was defending itself agains the Stalin's totalitarian Soviet Union.

Molari is probably not far away from Backman from ideology point of view. They have participated in similar gatherings. Case Molari is related to much more things.

It looks like Backman etc. are quite much against Finland, politically. It feels like thy would like Russia to be in control in Finland! Frankly speaking.
Backman has been demonstrating WITH extreme type of an islamist (who supports sharia).

Not only all that, Russia also has a Jewish Autonomous Republic on the Amur river border w/ China. However, Russian Jews don't throng to that place, and prefer Moscow and other major places. Contrast this w/ the Arab League & Israel.

Back on topic to Molari, wonder whether he could try working in Estonia, or in the Russian Karelia? I know that Estonia absolutely follows Finnish religious practices, don't know about Russian Lapland. But these would be better than bending b4 Finland's dhimmi church. Incidentally, during the Cold War, Finland was everything short of a satellite to the Soviets, but now, they brazenly support a Chechen terrorist who Moscow wants? What's wrong w/ them?

Yeah yeah yeah....

And Jews live soooooo happy in the Muslim world......
Sorry but unless you can show me Jews like Abramovich or yevlinskiy in high positions in Yemen I will still insist on my position and Zhirinovskiy has only a Jewish father which makes him not a Jew according to Jewish law....Also he is a clown who contradicts himself in evry second sentence he makes, so sometimes he says extremly anti-semitic things and sometimes he praises Jews-Israel, so using him just shows that you have no arguments....

"in Russia your skinheads can kill ten, twenty, thirty or fifty jews, armenians, and others and not get jailed"

Yeah yeah, facts please.....
Also the most common perpetraitors of violence in Russia are not slavic skinheads butMuslim saveges, but you seem not to have a problem with them.....

"and your people are heavily mixed with Tatar/mongol muslim blood"

WOW now there is "muslim blood"......does it make you more likly to blow yourself up if you get it in a transfusion???

First "blood" dosnt interest me, culture does and sadly here the Tatar yoke was devestating for Russia....
You can as well mock the Greeks, Bulgarians and Serbs for having "muslim blood" just because they were conquered and their woman raped by Muslim saveges....

Second your text shows little proof for your argument....
third, genetic tests have shown that while there is a large Finish ellement in the Russians (most of what is central Russia now was inhabited by finish tribes in the 10th century), but that the Turkish/Mongol element is rather small (what dosnt surprise if one brings in mind how small in number the nomadic tribes in the "wild field" were.....
It was larger in the aristocracy because many turkic aristocrats were admitted into the Muscovite nobility once they converted to Orthodoxy.)
There is actualy a much stronger slavic ellement in the Turks (they stole a LOT of woman from the Russians, even more were sold into the Muslim world).

Hitler style arguments that Russian "people are heavily mixed with Tatar/mongol muslim blood" proved not only nonsensical, but also sientificly wrong....

And by the way you havnt answered my question about your tribal pride.....


Oh and I forgot this: "You can't pull out neo nazi Jews like Zhirinovsky who hate Jews and claim they represent all Russian jews."

Were did Zhirinovskiy EVER said that he is a Jew or that he
"represent all Russian jews."???

You want the Russians slaughtered and their land taken over by Muslims dont you?


You ought to know by now that Horses*it is nothing more than a self-hating wacko troll. Civilizations don't merely die, they commit suicide through breeding too many doofusses like Horse.

So you mean I shouldnt even bother with him?

I think you are right, I feel rather silly myself for have engadged in a "conversation" with him.....

Oh and since this Muslim took such a name I think I have to present what his prophet said about horses(From Bukhari): "The Prophet said, "Good will remain in the foreheads of horses for Jihad till the Day of Resurrection, for they bring about either a reward in the Hereafter or booty in this world." Allah’s Apostle fixed two shares for the horse and one share for its rider from the war booty."
"The Prophet said, "If somebody keeps a horse in Allah’s Cause motivated by his faith in Allah and his belief in His Promise, then he will be rewarded for what the horse has eaten or drunk and for its dung and urine."
"Allah’s Apostle said, "Horses are kept for one of three purposes. For some people they are a source of reward, for some they are a means of shelter, and for some they are a source of sins. The one for whom they are a source of reward is he who keeps a horse for Jihad in Allah’s Cause. He ties it with a long tether in a meadow or in a garden with the result that whatever it eats from the area of the meadow or garden will be counted as good deeds for his benefit, and if it should break its rope and jump over one or two hillocks then all its dung and its foot marks will be written as good deeds for him. And if it passes by a river and drinks water from it even though he had no intention of watering it, he will get the reward for its drinking. As for the man for whom horses are a source of sins, he is the one who keeps a horse for the sake of pretense, showing enmity for Muslims."

As you can see his prophet so loved horses because they can be used for war, he even promised Muslims a reward for their dung and urin......
Would Muhammad have come today he would have praised tanks the same way, but since there is little thinking among Muslims, they still prais horses.....

Finland: Lutheran priest defrocked for condemning Chechen jihadist

An update on this story. Juha Molari condemned Doku Umarov, one of the world's most wanted jihadists, who is believed to be behind numerous attacks on innocent civilians and the bombing of Moscow's Domodedovo Airport. Umarov has also claimed responsibility for the Beslan massacre.
...............................

Condemning the murder of civilians and small school children? How "un-Christian"! sarc/off

More:

The priest was the first to openly say this was an outrage, and the reaction was quick to follow.

He got an email, apparently from Dagestan, saying that if he doesn’t “stop the fight against the Kavkaz-Centre, they will cut his head off and his family’s.”

Juha Molari went to the police, but instead ended up being persecuted himself...
...............................

This would be like Robert Spencer going to the FBI next time he gets death threats, and not just having his complaint ignored, but finding himself under arrest.

"Horse" wrote:

Armenians live in arab countries like lebanon and syria, without being attacked by hordes of Russian skinheads.
..........................

Well, this is probably technically true—but only because it is hard to find "hordes of Russian skinheads" in Syria and Lebanon...

Of course it should be allowed to critisize islamists. That should not be prevented. But there is much more to case Molari. He is part of so called "antifascists" in Finland, who actually are Marxists etc types of persons. They misuse the word "antifascists", in a very rough way.

People do not support Bäckman types of persons in Estonia either. Estonia had been under the Soviet totalitarian regime for ages. They understand the totalitarian ideologies.

Backman (Johan Bäckman) is also part of the "antifascist" movement. Following describes something about them. They (some of them) think that the Berlin wall was a wall against fascism in DDR/Eastern Germany !!

Horse, as a Hui, you ought to know that even at their worst under Mao, the Chinese Communists trotted out tame mullahs to tell the Arab and Malay worlds how wonderful things were in China--even when Muslim farmers were forced to raise "black bugs" and numerous observant Muslims in the Northwest and Yunnan were being murdered in purges. Yes, some of us can see that people outside our own "group" suffer, too.

The good treatment of Christians (and the remaining handful of Jews) in Syria is relative to other parts of the Muslim world.

So, they would have supported Eastern Germany after WWII. They think fascists were in the west during DDR.

The Berlin wall idea as a wall against fascism can be considered just as a communist joke.

Still, "antifascists" are e.g. against any critisim of the hateful deeds which have been made e.g. against Estonia.

People in the west should learn more about them and be more careful, so that you would not be associated with "hang the Finnish president Ryti" or other Soviet era types of persons.

Yet an other example: Backman wanted to get a person dondemned for showing the "Soviet Story" documentary in Finland. The Soviet Story presents the genocidal deeds of Soviet Union (Stalin etc.).

Russian media asks for official comments from Backman very often. Russian media is very biased in their news about Finland, still even today in year 2011.

Again: it still should be of course possible to critisize islamism and many persons want to deny even that here in Finland. That part is correct to critisisize.

"dondemned"
--
should be: "condemned",
in a court. Backman wanted to prosecute ProKarelia of raising hate speech/incitement (hate) against a group of people. So, as Backman claims: is the Soviet Story documentary hate speech? I would not say so, quite the opposite.

Sorry, I have written by a mobile phone (with lots or typos).

There are a certain number of Finns who may be sympathetic to Chechans out of resentment for Russia. We must remember that Finland has fought wars with the Russians and ceded 11% of the eastern part of their country to the Russians after the Winter War in 1940. It is the old adage "The enemy of my enemy is my friend." applying here.

Not with Russia but with the sovjet union....but since todays Russia presents itself as the heir of the SU and the SU itself began after 1941 to include russian nationalist ideas into its official propaganda bouth things got mixed up.

For Lenin on the other hand things were very diffrent, he often spoke with disgust about the Russians and the Russian empire, he openly proclaimed that he whished for Russias defeat in the 1stWorld war and said that "great Russian Chauvinism" is his greatest enemy. He saw Russia as a staging area of the world revolution, he often said that Berlin would be the capital city of the proletarian state and Esperanto its language. He thaught that it was very difficult to build socialism in Russia because of its backwardness instead hoping to use its recourses to conquer western Europe and build socialism there. The "Whites" who fought him mostly concidered themselvs to be russian nationalists who fight against proletarian internationalism.

At the beginning "Russia" and SU were oposite terms, but they later grew togather.

Unknown998

you made some excellent points against 'Horse'.

just so you know - have you read other threads in which he has turned up, busily throwing sand? - he is - or claims to be - a Chinese Mohammedan, a Hui Muslim. That is, he isn't an Arab, but he is firmly in the clutches of the Arab National/ Imperial Religion. I don't know whether he's made the Hajj yet, and kissed the magic black rock in Arabia, but he does seem to have spent some time hanging around in the Arab Muslim lands - most likely Syria.

And his sole aim and object here in this forum is (like that of every other Mohammedan dementor who has ever visited us) 1. to defend the Ummah and Islam and 2. to try to 'split the camp' of the infidels, by hook or by crook. (So he will relentlessly refer to and harp upon actual or supposed or invented points of friction between, say, Jews and Christians, or between Americans and Russians, or between Americans/ Christians and Hindus/ Indians).

Spirit of 1683

you argued that 'Horse' is "a self-hating wacko troll."

No, he's not a native westerner, no way. He has claimed, repeatedly, and I think convincingly (enough to convince Kepha, at least, who knows China at a level and depth that most of the rest of us don't) that he is a Chinese Mohammedan, a Hui Muslim.

His whole style and tone and a number of the rhetorical ploys he uses, are similar to those of other avowedly Muslim dementors who have frequented this forum in the past.

He is extremely aggressive toward me and toward Gravenimage, whom he knows to be western women. He used vulgarly insulting language toward Gravenimage.

His aggression toward 'Exiled Assyrian Christian' is ugly to see; as is his aggression toward the Hindu/ Indian posters here.

And did you notice the nasty way he talked to our Russian friend and colleague, Unknown 998, as soon as 'Unknown' challenged him?

However, Unknown scored some palpable hits, and I think any reasonable non-Muslim visitor here, viewing the exchange between Unknown and Horse, would see Unknown as the victor in the exchange. Unknown certainly came across as the most rational and self-controlled of the two.

Christians from Syria themselves say they are treated good, the Syrian government bans islamist groups and a christian can hold any post except the presidency.

“Robert Spencer incarnates intellectual courage when, all over the world, governments, intellectuals, churches, universities and media crawl under a hegemonic Universal Caliphate’s New Order.

Bat Ye’or
