SION to Hold International Congress and Media Workshop to Address Islamic Supremacist War Against Free Speech

NEW YORK: The first session of the International Freedom Defense Congress, the operating body of the human rights organization Stop Islamization of Nations (SION), will be held in New York on September 11, 2012. The principal focus of the Congress will be a media workshop pertaining to Islamic supremacist attempts to restrict the freedom of speech in the free world, and the smear campaigns against freedom fighters in newspapers and media institutions in the West.

"The objective of this first-of-its-kind workshop is to develop media-related mechanisms to address the smear campaigns," SION said in a statement. It will also address the media's double standard regarding Islam and other religions, as epitomized in March 2012 by the New York Times' running of an anti-Catholic smear ad and rejection of a SION ad telling the truth about Islamic jihad.

It said the workshop will discuss at length the reasons behind and the results of the Western media's offensive campaigns against freedom of speech and the truth about Islam, jihad, Islamic supremacism and Muslims, which it added still occur from time to time.

"The workshop will represent a quantum leap in media action, as it discusses, beyond rhetoric, the practical steps to address the phenomenon of the Islamic war against free speech," SION President Pamela Geller said.

Freedom fighters from all over the globe, journalists, intellectuals and academicians will be among the participants in the workshop, which will consist of brainstorming sessions to develop mechanisms for cooperation with external partners, and to develop an action plan to address the phenomenon of the Islamic war against free speech.

The organisation noted that the workshop is of particular importance as it is the first ever to address the implications of Resolution 16/18 of the United Nations Human Rights Council, the stated goal of which is to "combat intolerance, negative stereotyping and stigmatisation of, discrimination, incitement to violence, and violence against persons based on religion or belief," but which is actually designed to restrict truthful speech about Islamic supremacism and jihad, so as to render the West mute and defenseless before the advancing threat of jihad and Sharia.

Resolution 16/18, which was adopted by the United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva in March 2011, was backed by U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton at the most recent Istanbul Process Conference in Washington in December.

This is widely viewed as a significant step toward furthering OIC efforts to destroy the freedom of speech and impose Sharia blasphemy laws on the free world.

"We are holding this Congress on the eleventh anniversary of the day jihad came to America in order to strike a blow for freedom," Geller said.

SION stands for:
-- The freedom of speech - as opposed to Islamic prohibitions of "blasphemy" and "slander," which are used effectively to quash honest discussion of jihad and Islamic supremacism;
-- The freedom of conscience - as opposed to the Islamic death penalty for apostasy;
-- The equality of rights of all people before the law - as opposed to Sharia's institutionalized discrimination against women and non-Muslims.

The OIC and Muslim Brotherhood are operating a pincer movement against us, combining internal subversion with external pressure: http://crombouke.blogspot.com/2011/03/organization-of-islamic-conference-oic.html

Such a meeting and event on Septemrer 11, 2012 is both nesessary and well timed. In the light of this,the wisdom of the thired President of the United States,Thomas Jefferson,is both approprite and applicable for today with the danger of Islam's militant jihadism . For Mr. Jefferson wrote "A conviction that we are right accomplishes half the difficulity of correcting wrong." and "Foritiude...teaches us to meet and surmount difficulties; not to fly from them." We must not forget that that he wrote "Our part then is to pursue with steadness what is right...assured that the public approbation will in the end be with us."
Furthermore, as for the subject of Islam itself and the tolal mind control that it has on so many people. The wisdom of the words of Mr.Jefferson very well apply here. For he wrote "I have sworn upon alter of God eternal hositily aganst every form of tyranny over the mind of man."

Something that needs to be done by a group of the Resistance, on September 11, but outside of the times of whatever official commemorations are being performed.

Preferably at dawn, or else toward sunset.

Gather as close to the actual site of the attack as possible - or in the churchyard of St Paul's Chapel.

And have someone who is a good reader declaim aloud, in English and - if you can find someone who knows Italian - the original Italian, the whole of Oriana Fallaci's brilliant and blazing response to September 11, "The Rage and the Pride", or 'La Rabbi e L'Orgoglio'.

And then get out the wine and drink a series of toasts: to the memory of the fallen; to Oriana herself; and to Freedom, and Truth, and Justice.

Video the whole thing and put it up on youtube.

Correction. The Italian title of Oriana Fallaci's wonderful book/ pamphlet is, of course, "La Rabbia e L'Orgoglio".

What an absolutely **brilliant** idea.
I shall be suggesting it to Paul Weston of the British Freedom Party, and to Tommy Robinson at the EDL.

It's about time we defenders of the right, took the fight to the enemy.

Glad you like it.

You *do* have a September 11 memorial in London where you could arrange to meet, outside of the times scheduled for whatever official ceremony is being held.

And there's a beautiful September 11 memorial garden in New York City as well, dedicated specifically to the many British victims.
