"Promoting sharia in any form is a reckless pursuit on the part of democratic governments"

Victoria’s Racial and Religious Tolerance Act 2001 – otherwise known as ‘Victoria’s Blasphemy law’
............................

What an Orwellian name for a law that enables Shari'ah law and restricts freedom of speech...

Once government terror becomes the accepted rule of law then the only remaining question is who controls government, and to what micro-managed ends. Tyranny has many flavors, but suppression of speech that seeks redress of grievances is a common feature to all.

Here's a suggestion (world wide) -- Let all Islamic clerics that demand (or get) veto power over secular elected government also stand for elections, or selection and approval similar to that of US Supreme Court justices by elected officials, subject also to impeachment by elected officials. Judges in Sharia courts demand immunity from the machinery of democratic elections, and are thus unaccountable other than by non-democratic means. Islamic clerics demand exemption from the will of the people anywhere and everywhere. Demand immediately that they stand for elections, and accountability, in countries not yet fully Sharia-compliant. Demand immediately also that Sharia court proceedings be as open as in US courts, in countries not yet fully Sharia-compliant.

That disclaimer was pathetic.

As Serge Trifkovic aptly stated in his book The Sword of the Prophet, "Islam is a collective psychosis seeking to become global, and any attempt to compromise with such madness is to become part of the madness oneself."

The urgent need of this hour is not appeasement and compromise with the Muslim agenda but rather we need men and women with backbone and true grit who will rise up with courage and stand steadfast against this ruthless political system disguised as a religion.

Islam is a Trojan Horse and it is the greatest threat to world peace in 6000 years of recorded history.

Islam is a malignant cancer and as such you only have two choices......you must fight to destroy the cancer or roll over in submission and allow the cancer to destroy you.

THE CHOICE IS YOURS !!!!!!

Every JW reader should read the above speech by Vickie Janson. I agree 100% to it. It is rest-assuring there are people on the ball in Downunder. Gud-on-u-mate.

Sharia takes hold in Britain. Massive increase in honor attacks:

UK police recorded at least 2,823 so-called honour attacks last year, figures from 39 out of 52 forces show...

Such attacks can include acid attacks, abduction, mutilations, beatings and in some cases, murder.

A quarter of police forces in the UK were unable or unwilling to provide data and communities have often been reluctant to talk about the crime, Ikwro said.

Its director Diana Nammi said families often tried to deny the existence of honour attacks and those who carried them out were "very much respected".

She told the BBC: "The perpetrators will be even considered as a hero within the community because he is the one defending the family and community's honour and reputation."

She added that there was not enough support for victims, and many needed continuing help and protection.

"For some cases, police and some organisations just help them up to a length of time, then they will stop," she said.

"With honour-based violence, the threat may be a lifetime threat for them."

Vicky Janson is great - right on the ball.

I've met her.

I've also read - thank you, PJG, for sending me a copy! - her book 'Ideological Jihad', which is in fact written as an extended riposte to one of our slitheriest da'wa spin-doctors, one Walid Aly, who is author of a very meretricious book about Muslims in Australia and within the West, "People Like Us" (which book is, basically, an exercise in whitewashing Islam and Blame-The-Infidel).

Janson addresses Mr Aly throughout her book, relentlessly questioning him, relentlessly and intelligently confronting every piece of evasion and every lie and every half-truth that he peddled in his own book.

Read Janson's 'Ideological Jihad', and you keep hearing a sound like the clang of a hammer on an anvil. Or, to change the metaphor, the swish of the Sword of Godric Griffindor as it dispatches a Basilisk.

Vicki Jansen raises a very important issue here in Australia - honour killings and violence against Muslim women and non-Muslim women by Muslim men. The data for such violence is very hard to get hold of and apart from the examples she quotes, almost unknown. Part of the reason is that much of this violence is simply recorded as domestic violence and there is no association with the religion of the victims.

Yet there is much empirical evidence that such violence occurs here in Muslim families as it does elsewhere in the West. Investigating cases of abuse social workers in NSW have called for police presence in attending Sudanese Muslim households because of the extreme violence that the Muslim men are prone to exhibit. The women and children in families of Muslim immigrants are conspicuously over-represented in recorded abuse cases - far more than any other ethnic immigrant group - and if it were recorded, the vast majority would be Muslim, according to the social workers who have to deal with it.

It never ceases to amaze that Leftist feminists rarely protest the violence and oppression of women in Islam. You'd expect them to take to the streets to protest the horrific violence of honour killings. Or the genital mutilation of children. Or the institutionalized rape of children through arranged marriages mandated under Shariah (and flouting Australian law). Or the rape of non-Muslim women or Muslim women who dress provocatively - like 'pieces of meat' according to Australian Imam Sheikh Hilaly.

Yet even in one of the most notorious cases in Australia involving a Muslim rape gang that operated in Sydney's Western suburbs - whose principle members are currently serving lengthy prison sentences - did not see the feminists or the Left stage the mass protest that it should have evoked. Of course then it comes as no surprise that the most obvious cause - the misogyny promoted by the ideology of Islam and mandated by Shariah - is also ignored. Australia for all its much-vaunted freedoms (one of the first democracies to give women the vote!) is as much behind the eight ball on this - or worse - as the rest of the West.

One should use this Australian law to sue Islamists for promoting hatred and violence against Jews, Christians and "infdels". Half of Koran are diatribes inciting hatred and violence against "other". Thus intelligent lawyers should be suing Islamists all over the world for "blasphemy" of Jews, Christians and "other", rather than allowing those evil medieval men use the law against those who speak truth against Islamic messages of hate and intolerance.

Any lawyer out there who has guts to start suing mosques around the world for promoting "blasphemy" against regular people in the West?

If the puzzel pieces don't fit together there is something very wrong. Islam claims to be the religion of "peace'. But that doesn't fit with what I'm seeing and hearing. This acticle is well written and explains things very well.

Non-Muslim Muslims and the Jihad Against the West
By Bosch Fawstin,

My name is Bosch and I’m a recovering Muslim.
That is, if Muslims don’t kill me for leaving Islam, which it requires them to do.

That’s just one of the reasons I’ve been writing and drawing against Islam and its Jihad for a number of years now. But fortunately for us, Islam hasn’t been able to make every Muslim its slave, just as Nazism wasn’t able to turn every German into a Nazi. So there is Islam and there are Muslims. Muslims who take Islam seriously are at war with us and Muslims who don’t aren’t.

But that doesn’t mean we should consider these reluctant Muslims allies against Jihad. I’ve been around Muslims my entire life and most of them truly don’t care about Islam. The problem I have with many of these essentially non-Muslim Muslims, especially in the middle of this war being waged on us by their more consistent co-religionists, is that they give the enemy cover. They force us to play a game of Muslim Roulette since we can’t tell which Muslim is going to blow himself up until he does. And their indifference about the evil being committed in the name of their religion is a big reason why their reputation is where it is.

So while I understand that most Muslims are not at war with us, they’ve proven in their silence and inaction against jihad that they’re not on our side either, and there’s nothing we can say or do to change that. We just have to finally accept it and stop expecting them to come around, while doing our best to kill those who are trying to kill us.
Another problem with Muslims who aren’t very Muslim is that they lead some among us to conclude that they must be practicing a more enlightened form of Islam. They’re not. They’re “practicing” life in non-Muslim countries, where they are free to live as they choose. But their “Islam” is not the Islam. There’s no separate ideology apart from Islam that’s being practiced by these Muslims in name only, there’s no such thing as “Western Islam”.

Non-observant Muslims are not our problem, but neither are they the solution to our problem. Our problem is Islam and its most consistent practitioners. There is nothing in Islam that stays the hand of Muslims who want to kill non-Muslims. If an individual Muslim is personally peaceful, it’s not because of Islam, it’s because of his individual choice, which is why I often say that your average Muslim is morally superior to Mohammad, to their own religion. The very rare Muslim who helps us against Jihad is acting against his religion, but that doesn’t stop some among us from thinking that his existence somehow means that he represents more than himself.

The only reason we’re talking about Islam is because it doesn’t mean peace. Islam wasn’t hijacked by a “small minority of extremists” on 9/11, it was hijacked by a very small minority of moderates whose embarrassment in being associated with such an immoderate religion leads them to engage in moderate truth telling about it, proving their irrelevance as allies.

In addition to these politically active moderates, when you see well-assimilated Muslims in the West, you’re not seeing Islam in action, you’re seeing individuals living up to the old adage, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. They’re essentially post-Islamic Muslims who have rejected Islamic values and have embraced Western ones. But since the process of their assimilation was implicit – as it happened naturally by their exposure to Western, i.e., pro-life, values – both Muslims and non-Muslims alike prefer to generously give Islam some credit for it. But a good
Muslim, by our standards is a bad Muslim by Islamic standards. Objectively good human beings, who identify themselves as Muslim, give Islam a good face, one far better then it deserves. This only gives us a false impression about what it is we’re facing, with just another excuse not to face it. And this leads to our acceptance into our culture of stealth jihadists who have figured out how to say what we want to hear, while they scheme behind the scenes to further Islamize the West.

In the name of distinguishing the enemy from Muslims who mean us no harm, far too many Western commentators have avoided using the name “Islam” for the enemy’s ideology, and instead have decided to create their very own terms for the threat we’re facing, terms that are alien to the enemy. Terms such as:
Islamic Fundamentalism.
Islamic Extremism.
Totalitarian Islam.
Islamofascism.
Islamonazism.
Political Islam.
Bin Ladenism.
Radical Islam.
Militant Islam.
Islamism.
Jihadism.

We didn’t use terms such as “Radical Nazism”, “Extremist Shinto” and “Militant Communism” in the past. “Militant Islam”, Political Islam”, etc., are redundant terms. Our pretending otherwise has proven disastrous. Thousands of American lives, both civilian and military, have been sacrificed because of policies predicated on the myth that “Islam means peace.” We didn’t try to reform Shinto or Nazism during World War II; the major changes in those cultures took place only after we thoroughly de-militarized them.

And it’s no accident that Western analysts of Islam who are most informed about Islam are also most critical of it, while those least informed are least critical. But then there are those who, in their study of Islam, have become so enamored with their subject that, instead of sticking to what Islam is, they often write about what it isn’t, what they hope it might be. They seem preoccupied with doing their part to save Islam from those who have allegedly corrupted it.

The Muslim world is where the true meaning of Islam can be found in practice. Islam – not any alleged deviant form of it – means misogyny, censorship, anti-Semitism, homophobia, wife-beatings, beheadings, honor killings, pedophilia/“child marriages”, murdering infidels, etc. This is evil, and Islam sanctions every bit of it, but we’ve been told that we must respect “one of the world’s great religions” because it’s a religion. Following 9/11, the only thing George W. Bush knew about Islam was that it was a religion, and that apparently was a good enough reason for him to exonerate it as he did. And his advisor on Islam, David Forte, told Bush exactly what he wanted to hear, that “Nothing this evil could come from religion.” But 9/11 did come from a religion. Whatever else 9/11 was, it was an act of faith.

And Bush saying “Islam is peace” shortly after 9/11 gave the enemy a gift they couldn’t have foreseen. Here was the one man who was charged to defend America from their attack and here he was defending the very ideology that motivated the attackers. Honesty is the best policy in general, and when it comes to war, it’s a moral imperative to find out the truth, to tell the truth and to act on the truth, no matter what sacred cow is killed in the process. And so a big part of why nearly 3,000 victims of jihad on 9/11 haven’t been avenged is because of respect for religion, even for a religion that calls for our destruction.

Muslims who really care about Islam are part of an organized effort to spread Islam, and I sometimes refer to this collective effort by Muslims as “Organized Islam.” No matter the means involved, Muslims working towards a more Islamic world want the same thing the jihadists want. This organized effort includes Mosques, Muslim organizations, Muslim individuals writing books, blog posts, etc. And they all invariably engage in anti-Western, Anti-Israeli propaganda, at the very least.

I often hear that we should be working with the Muslim world. Working towards what? As Ayn Rand writes, “In any collaboration between two men (or two groups) who hold different basic principles, it is the more evil or irrational one who wins.” Any time we spend “working” with a culture that calls for our destruction, we are working towards our own destruction, consciously or not.
While it’s true that jihadists don’t represent most Muslims, they do represent Islam. But then why don’t most Muslims engage in jihad? Like in any culture, heroes are a small minority, and that goes for Islamic culture as well. The jihadists are Islam’s heroes; they are the ones most dedicated to following Allah’s commands and they’re celebrated in the Muslim world for it. They are also the only ones to whom Islam guarantees paradise. And their rarity was made even clearer when we learned that only the pilots of 9/11 knew it was a suicide mission. Our enemy knows that it’s tough to get even hardcore Muslims to sacrifice their lives for Islam, but they don’t want us to know that. Just as they don’t want us to know that behind their boast that they love death is the fact that they hate life.

And while Muslims who blow themselves up in order to kill non-Muslims are a small minority, Muslims who would explicitly condemn them are an even smaller minority. And while I think that Muslims are mere sheep to their Jihadist wolves, there are also too many Muslim cheerleaders for jihad. How many Muslims celebrated 9/11? Far too many. Even in my own lax Muslim upbringing in America, there was an omnipresent anti-Semitism and misogyny. Some members of my family admired Adolph Hitler, who I refer to as “Islam’s Favorite Infidel.” Regarding misogyny, the birth of a girl became a day of mourning for Muslim women in my family; they understood the suffering this girl would endure under Islam, even in America.

Though we say we’ve been at war for over ten years, we haven’t even begun to fight the war the way we should be fighting it. And those calling for a change within Islam during this war would be surprised at how much Islam can be changed through an honest war on our behalf. You can’t make a violent religion like Islam non-violent by argument, only by greater retaliatory force against state sponsors of jihad terrorism.

The future of Islam and the well-being of Muslims is said to be of importance to us. Post – 9/11, the defense of our culture, our values, our very lives has been optional, but our defense of Islam has been absolute. It began with Bush’s “Islam is peace” and it continues with Obama, who said in his Submission Speech in Egypt in 2009, in front of members of The Muslim Brotherhood, “I consider it part of my responsibility as president of the United States to fight against negative stereotypes of Islam wherever they appear.” If only he felt the same about America.
We can’t be both for Islam and for ourselves. This enemy is fully on their own side and fully against us and they’ve made themselves believe that they’re the good guys and that we’re the bad guys, and our actions have done nothing but turn their hatred of us into an ever-deepening contempt. Before we see the enemy for what it is, we need to see ourselves for what we are. Only then can we, with full moral conviction, make them pay for what they’ve done and move us towards victory.

Our problem is not “Islamophobia”, but Islamophilia. It is this uncritical, uninformed, absolute defense of Islam by Western elites after 9/11 that I refer to as Islamgate. It’s a scandal for the ages that few involved would ever admit to being part of.

I care about the truth. I care about Western Civilization. I care about myself, my loved ones and my friends. I care about Iife. And that’s why I don’t care about Islam.
Our altruistic concern for the future and well being of the Muslim world has come at the expense of American lives and treasure. We’ve placed the well being of “The Muslim World” above our own self-defense. We’ve placed today’s Big Lie, “Islam means peace”, above the truth we need to act on. We’ve placed the lives of Muslim civilians above the lives of our soldiers, placing them in absolutely unnecessary danger in order to protect innocent (or even guilty) civilians. Our Rules of Engagement might as well be renamed the Golden Rules of Engagement, as our soldiers have been forced to treat the enemy the way we’d like to be treated. And the enemy takes full advantage of that, as they do of all of the policies our morally vain politicians have concocted. We need to shift the focus onto our own well-being at the enemy’s expense for a change.
We’ve tried everything since 9/11 except real war. War is the answer to Jihad.

So who cares about Islam? Muslims, Jihadists, Islamophiles, Leftists who naturally side with anti-American ideologies, guilt-ridden fellow travelers who think America is usually in the wrong, and religionists who believe any religion is better than none. But since Leftists and Islamophiles usually know very little about Islam, who truly cares about Islam? Those who are at war with us.

In the end, I care about Islam and the Muslim world as much as the Muslim world cares about America and the West. This is war. We can’t be on both sides. I’m not rooting for Islam or the Muslim world.
I’m rooting for us.

"While we find this law [the Victoria Racial and Religious Tolerance Act 2001 – otherwise known as ‘Victoria’s Blasphemy law’] abhorrent because it prohibits free speech and advances totalitarianism, we respect that the Rule of Law is a fundamental Australian value'

But true Rule of Law cannot advance totalitarianism.

Therefore, Ms. Janson's statement is a political hedge, nothing more, intended to salve the timid.

Vickie Janson's speech was great and very informative!!!

When I absorb the facts of the Islamic problem in Democratic countries, it strikes me that Muslims are the ones with a goal they strive forward to, many of them in many ways pro-active and very dedicated.

Shamelessly invasive, going to countries with very different laws, values, principles, yet holding to their own, many of whom are contradicting those of their new countries.

And loyalty to those new countries is not much even considered by many Muslims it seems to me. Example; fluent Dutch-speaking Turks were protesting against higher payment for not having to serve in the Turkish army, I believe the amount was about 1000 Euro. But when asked it seemed that they did not consider at all to try to shed their Turkish nationality, which of course was perfectly possible.

And people like JW-ers, counter-jihadists are still now only, mostly reactive, it seems to me. And it seems that populations of these nations are in large part not much interested in the full democratic system to flourish and otherwise engaged in countless interests. And in Democratic Nations people must be allowed to be free, autonomous, un-coerced even to be loyal and supportive of the full Democratic system. They not even need to know what it entails, it seems.

Consequently there are multitudes of inhabitants in Democratic Nations who don't seem to care, who seem very ignorant and not actively or even intellectually on the same side of the emerging movement of counter-jihadists. Or even on the side of the Muslims against the counter-jihadists. For now I call these disinterested, unconcerned, but still very free, people the "neutrals".

And it is my hope that the Muslim invasion will have the effect that many "neutrals" will become pro-active for the full Democratic System, and worldwide too. That it will lead to parties that advocate the forming of the UDN, Unitied Democratic Nations. Which would not happen without this huge Muslim provocation that is under way.

And it is my hope that the dedicated Democratic Citizens will operate in unison and that it will be they who are pro-active and defending what they are FOR.

And that it will be both the Muslims and the Neutrals who will have to be against a dedicated highly organised and united movement; dedicated Democrats. Instead of the situation now, where counter-jihadists of necessity are still in the process of being primarily AGAINST a dedicated highly organised and united movement; that of Islam. in a society that is enormously politically divided and therefore vulnerable and allowing this creeping anti-democratic invasion.

And my hope get's augmented when I read that the birthrates of Muslima's in many Islamic Nations as well as in Democratic Nations has begun to fall dramatically and seems destined to end at a level playing field with other literate and working women around the world.

And more when I read about surging domestic energy production in diverse Democratic Nations, with America, Israel and European countries among them.

It is my hope that under changing circumstances like this the vast majority of Muslims begin to realize that the ultimate goal is totally unreachable and that the situation for Muslims is going in the wrong direction. I think the counter-jihadist, or dedicated Democrats, will surely see to this.

John Kelly has it right, “We need men and women with backbone and true grit who will rise up with courage and stand steadfast against this ruthless political system disguised as a religion…”

Sooo, I’d first like to thank Robert (BOBBIE!) and the entire Q Society team in bringing forth and making readily available valuable information and more importantly an open discussion in key Australian cities, that is a necessity for the Australian public to be informed upon let alone literally ‘hear’…

If it weren’t for these guys and many more others that are publicly coming forth internationally, standing up in the fight “TRUTH&FREEDOM”, Australia would be more at a loss than what it is ‘today’. So far, we are still the ‘lucky’ country where political correctness has not fully under-pinned our current democracy but will easily change if we are ‘not aware’ of what is going on at a ground level, locally and internationally.

Vicky Janson’s direct opening statement may well be that political hedge salving the timid as well an obligation by her part on behalf of the QSociety team and their Robert Spencer Australian Tour. It is also pertinent in the cause of TRUTH&FREEDOM that it is done so correctly within the bounds of current Australian (State) Laws.

Sheesh, I don’t want to see her sued for voicing concerns (either individually or professionally) about a worldwide problem honestly and openly discussed rationally and logically. Islam does affect every single one of us and our future generations whether you follow it or not.

Vicky is refreshingly passionate -- what can I do to assist you?!?

Bobbie… thanks again!

Cheers,
Fiona
