If you don't know by now that action against the "culture of hatred among nations" means restrictions on free speech about Islam, including investigations of the motives and goals of the jihad terrorists, you haven't been paying attention. Pakistan recently called for EU action against free speech, and this conference, which was portrayed in the witless Western press as a genuine call for interreligious dialogue, is talking about going to the UN and "taking action at the media level to counter distorting campaigns and confront calls for confrontations among civilizations."
In other words, if you say Muslims are waging jihad warfare against non-Muslims, they will try to get you vilified, if not prosecuted, for "hate speech" -- for daring to suggest that there is a "confrontation among civilizations."
"Muslim scholars call for action against 'culture of hatred among nations,'" from Kuwait News Agency, June 7 (thanks to Twostellas):
RIYADH, June 7 (KUNA) -- Participants in the freshly-concluded International Islamic Conference on Inter-faith Dialogue have recommended establishing the International King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Center for Civilizations Interaction for the sake of boosting dialogue among nations of diverse cultures. The conferees, in the end of the conference that concluded in the holy city of Makkah late on Friday, considered the address made by King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz as a basis for the launch of dialogue among nations for sake of global peace and co-existence among the diverse peoples of the world.They called for organizing a special gathering for working out a mechanism for the global dialogue to contribute in efforts of resolving international crises, affirmed necessity of cooperation among the various religious communities and rejected all forms of moralistic deterioration, family disintegration and unfriendly action against the environment.
They also decided to form a special panel to establish an international authority for dialogue, recommended follow-up sessions and seminars, unifying the Muslims' stance vis-a-vis dialogue with other civilizations, called for involving non-religious figures in such dialogue and exerting efforts to clarify misconceptions about Islam.
They recommended taking action at the media level to counter distorting campaigns and confront calls for confrontations among civilizations, urged international organizations namely the UN to face the culture of hatred among nations and racist and arrogant attitudes that contradict religious messages and international charters.
The gathering was organized in support of the Muslim World League and other Islamic organizations that had been active in the face of distorting campaigns.The conference kicked off on Wednesday under the patronage of Saudi's King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz and the auspices of the league.

The "culture of hatred among nations"?
Okay, let's start.
Show us your textbooks.
Then we'll show you ours.
Let's compare. Let's contrast.

'...if you say Muslims are waging jihad warfare against non-Muslims, they will try to get you vilified, if not prosecuted, for "hate speech" -- for daring to suggest that there is a "confrontation among civilizations."'
A word-perfect description of what is happening to Mark Steyn right now.
Which points to the greater evil, namely those multitudinous Western enablers of jihad. Muslims have been indoctrinated from birth. What excuse do the non-Muslims sitting on the Canadian Human Rights (guffaw) Commission have?

Dialogue? Definition: Muslims speak, Kaffir listen, dialogue is complete.
I'm not interested, thanks.

Nothing new in Islam. Muslims have already stiffled criticism in the 7th century, eg.:
The killing of a man so old led a poetess - Asma B. Marwan - to compose verses criticising the Prophet. She too was therefore killed - "She was sleeping with her children about her," writes Maxime Rodinson in his well known biography of the Prophet. "The youngest, still at the breast, lay asleep in her arms. He (Umayr ibn Adi, who had been spurred by the Prophet's 'will no one rid me of this daughter of Marwan?') drove his sword through her, and in the morning he went to Mohammed. 'Messenger of God,' he said, 'I have killed her!' 'You have done a service to Allah and his Messenger, Umayr! was the reply…'

Certainly - just start by sending Amadenijhad, Syria, hamas, hizbollah et all similar ilk to the international court for attempted genocide and non-stop expressions of hatred against Israel, to be followed by synagogues in Mecca, churches in Medina, legalizing bibles, Shinto, Buddhist, Sikh, Hindu, even atheists writings, full open and honest discussions of all of islam: Sira, Ahadith, regarding the life and all activities and deeds of the "prophet" and in comparison to the Koran ...

You know, I think that this sort of thing is a great idea, IF we start first with the biggest haters of them all, MUSLIMS!!
urged international organizations namely the UN to face the culture of hatred among nations and racist and arrogant attitudes that contradict religious messages and international charters.
Yep. That's a very accurate description of Islam. They HATE everyone who doesn't see things their way. They are racist (they think that Arabs are superior to everyone else) and arrogant (they think that Muslims are superior to everyone else).
By the way, how welcome do you think the Jewish nation (Israel) will be to "dialogue" with them? The ONLY time they want to "dialogue" with Israel is when they need time to reload their weapons!
It never ceases to amaze me how brainwashed Muslims are.

How much you want to bet they propose that the conference be in Constantinople, oops, I mean, Istanbul?
Ah, Istanbul, that shining example of tolerance, where one can get killed for doing something as horrible as leaving the Muslim Mafia; or being a Christian, and attempting to have "dialogue" with a Muslim about the Christian faith.

These furtive attempts by Muslim Taqiyya warriors and self-deceivers at truth suppression & disinformation are ultimately doomed to failure for three reasons no matter what the sellout EU politicians or UN commissions declare:
(1) The USA has a deep cerebral attachment to its almost sacred First Amendment and too much the rest of the world will always sense in it a rightful model; (2) The Koran and Hadiths have been translated well enough in many Western languages, and (3) too many people in the West can read!
Besides, Islam in our modern technological and more & more culturally Western World looks like a stupid man’s infantile fantasy that he needs to shed before he appears too much like an idiotic freak.

Come on, Benedict XVI. Trump the House of Saud.
Time for the Great Kafir Conference.
Call all the Christians together - the Patriarchs, the Cardinals, the Archbishops, bishops, pastors and elders, Catholic, Protestant and Orthodox. Invite the Jews.
BUT ALSO
Invite the Dalai Lama. Invite every major representative of every non-Muslim religion - and the atheists, sceptics and agnostics.
Show everyone 'Islam: What the [Kafir] Need to Know'.
And call all the Apostates from Islam, the Defectors from the Army of Islam, and give them time, and space, to speak, and to warn.
Let the likes of Abdul Rahman (Afghan convert from Islam to Christ), Magdi Cristiano Allam, Bp Patrick Sookhdeo, Wafa Sultan, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, and a slew of others lay it on the line.
Then call in people like Mr Robert Spencer and Andrew Bostom and Bat Yeor, Serge Trifkovic, and others, and let *them* do some educating in person, and bring everyone up to scratch.
At the end of it, a no-nonsense statement and plea for action, addressed to all Kafir political leaders.
Now *that* would be a conference to make history.

Mafia Calls for Disarming Those Who Shoot Back.

Let's remind ourselves of the kinds of attitudes contained in the sacred texts and historical writings of Islam.
To wit:
The Verse of the Sword, Surah 9:5 -
"Then, when the sacred months have passed, slay the idolaters wherever ye find them, and take them captive, and besiege them, and prepare for them each ambush. But if they repent and establish worship and pay the poor-due [i.e. if and only if they become Muslims] then leave their way free. Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.” {hard to resist the /sarc/ marker for that last euphemistic piece of BS about 'merciful' 'allah'}
Or this:
Qur’an:8:39 “So fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief [non-Muslims]) and all submit to the religion of Allah alone (in the whole world).”
Qur’an 8:67 - “It is not fitting for any prophet to have prisoners until he has made a great slaughtering of infidels in the land.”
Ishaq (Sira, or Life of Mohammed) :231 - “Muslims are one ummah (community) to the exclusion of all men. Believers are friends of one another to the exclusion of all outsiders.”
Ishaq: 204 - “‘Men, do you know what you are pledging yourselves to in swearing allegiance to this man [Muhammad]?’ ‘Yes. In swearing allegiance to him we are pledging to wage war against all mankind.’”
Or, from the Hadith:
‘Paradise is to be found in the shades of swords’ [Bukhari: Vol 4, Bk 56, no. 2818.]
And here is what a Danish researcher found when she compared the language of Islam to that of ten other religions.
As published in Jyllandsposten, Denmark's largest newspaper, on the 10th of September 2005:
'Islam er den mest krigeriske religion - Islam is the most Warlike religion
'A Danish language researcher has spent over three years analyzing the original texts of ten different religions, and concludes that the Islamic texts stand out by encouraging terror and violence to a larger degree than other religions do.
'Four years after the terror attacks at the World Trade Center, Danish linguist Tina Magaard presents an analysis that questions Islam’s relationship with terror, violence and Holy War.
'Islamic texts encourage terror and fighting to a far larger degree than the original texts of other religions,"
concludes Tina Magaard. She has a PhD in Textual Analysis and Intercultural Communication from the Sorbonne in Paris, and has spent three years on a research project comparing the original texts of ten religions.
'“The texts in Islam distinguish themselves from the texts of other religions by encouraging violence and aggression against people with other religious beliefs to a larger degree.
'There are also straightforward calls for terror.
'This has long been a taboo in the research into Islam, but it is a fact that we need to deal with," says Tina Magaard.
'Moreover, there are hundreds of calls in the Koran for fighting against people of other faiths.
“If it is correct that many Muslims view the Koran as the literal words of God, which cannot be interpreted or rephrased, then we have a problem. "...
Yes, we - we Kafir - do indeed have a problem with Islam.
O House of Saud and Muslim clerics assembled - you want to talk about a 'culture of hatred'? - just look in the mirror.
'Arrogant attitudes that contradict religious messages' (how about the fact that Islam teaches contempt for kafir? - that it does not teach the Golden Rule?), and international charters (but sharia law flatly contradicts clause after clause of the International Declaration of Human Rights...).

Since the House of Saud are talking about that subject, they just need to look at their books, change it and join the civilized world, or they can go to hell with the help of the great one.

They also... called for... exerting efforts to clarify misconceptions about Islam.
What misconceptions? Everyone knows (or should know by now) that Islam is a religion of absolute hatred and violence, and that Mohammad was a false "prophet," besides being a sadistic murderer, thief, rapist, warmonger, and all around bigot who today would be placed on a regimen of anti-psychtic meds and locked away in some state mental institution as a danger, if not to himself, then certainly to others.
Oh, I get it, King Abdullah and Co. are searching for the "historical" Mohammad, the one I've described above, as they intend to repudiate the monster at long last. They mean the become Methodists, I suppose, since becoming Jewish is TOO MUCH to ask!
at June 8, 2008 6:40 PM
When will America's people wake up and demand Constitutional protection from Islam in the form of an Amendment that can curtail Islam's objectives without damaging the freedom of religion, press and free speech we enjoy in this country. If we do not, Islam will employ our protections against us...lawfully, of course.
And when will we do away with the UN?

Their idea of "dialogue" is for them to lecture us, and for us to stay quiet. That's not dialogue, it is a restriction on free thought and free speech.
Like I said originally, in "Bridge for Sale" interfaith 'dialogue' call by Saudi Kind: http://www.jihadwatch.org/archives/021287.php#c547680
"No deal!" They want to unify civilizations? Fine. Stop your Jihad against non-members of your evil cult. Then we can dialogue, not before.
And exactly what do they mean "other civilizations" vis-a-vis Islam? Since when can this Cult of Allah be called civilized? This is Islamic arrogance in naked form. Kind of like saying we should dialogue with the Nazi Party ideologues, on a civilization level. Absurd.
It's like dialoguing with five year olds, who commit murder and then call your resistance a "crime against their civilization". We will not be lectured by this cult of ignorance and violence. Let them 'dialogue' amongst themselves first, to end Jihad, and maybe then we can talk.

"International Islamic Conference on Inter-faith Dialogue" calls for action against "culture of hatred among nations"
Did they also call for action against the dar al-harb vs. dar al-islam doctrine.
Didn't think so.
Sigh.

These conferences are becoming monthly events teeming with angst, desperation, and frustration. They realize they can't fool the kafirs with their lies and propaganda so now they're resorting to their usual tactics--force and intimidation. They are scared, and rightly so. While muslims can never admit that islam is a savage, cruel, intolerant religion, they cannot conceal the truth from non-muslims. All they can do is lie, obfuscate, sue, threaten, and whine to the U.N.
I do think they have enough sense to realize that when enough infidels learn about islam's hideous doctrine, bloody history, and imperialistic ambitions, life for muslims in the West will rapidly deteriorate and tolerance of islam will begin to fade.
This is already happening to some extent and will only intensify. I hate to tell these pompous tyrants and wannabe rulers of the world but the word is out and further demands by them will only make matters worse and hasten the inevitable. We watch muslims kill, maim, and destroy every day of the year in the name of their cursed religion. That's islam and we don't like it.
It's time we started holding conferences and workshops to discuss how we can better protect ourselves from the scourge of islam and its deranged adherents, with ample publicity and media coverage. AFter all, we're the targets of islamic vengeance, terrorism, and imperialism and we have a right to defend ourselves and warn others.

"They recommended taking action at the media level to counter distorting campaigns and confront calls
for confrontations among civilizations, urged international organizations namely the UN to face the culture of hatred among nations and racist and arrogant attitudes that contradict religious messages and international charters. The gathering was organized in support of the Muslim World League and other Islamic organizations that
had been active in the face of distorting campaigns."
===========================================
(#1) They're already browbeating us "at the media level" and I'm getting pretty dang sick of it. They insist that we, who recoil at the behaviors of their "faithful", are the ones guilty of evil. NO.
(#2) The UN (especially the Human Rights Council, or Commission, or whatever its name is now) mostly
seems interested in demonizing Israel. They CERTAINLY show no interest in confronting genocide, for instance in Darfur. It's my understanding the USA just walked out on that bunch of totalitarian sympathizers...
(#3) If the Islamic bozos who convened this "conference" would care to open their eyes, the part of the world doing the most hatin' on other religions is ---- gasp ---- the Middle East, specifically the Islamic nations located therein. None of the rest of us has a holy book calling members of ANY other religion "apes and pigs"; nor is it OUR religious custom to go out and attempt to convert others to our religion with threats, terror, and murder. I feel confident in declaring that NO Christian has EVER attempted to spread the Gospel by holling "Jesus Christ" and blowing himself up.
(#4) Just to be clear, the "racist and arrogant attitudes" belong to the imams or mullahs or
what-have-you who rouse their faithful sheeple to riots at the slightest perception that their Western host countries are resisting Islamization. They announce theirs is the "religion of peace" but the countries which have foolishly permitted massive Muslim immigration -- France, Germany, Norway, Denmark, Britain -- experience alarming increases in violence, including what's been called an "epidemic" of rape, and the development of hostile enclaves where police, fire, and emergency medical crews dare not go. Apparently many Muslims who immigrate to the West believe that their sharia law supercedes and nullifies the laws of the countries they have immigrated to.
(#5) They are attempting to counter "distorting campaigns"???? Buttheads, we've got the VIDEOS of the beheadings, the planes flying into buildings, the Glasgow doctors, and on, and on!!. NO DISTORTION. ALL DOCUMENTED. ALL REAL. Speaking of "real", one very much wants to stand up and tell THEM to "get real": Islam is totalitarianism with a religious veneer; it pays lip-service to the holy but uses violence and cruelty to seize power and maintain control, control, CONTROL.
These guys can hold "dialogues" on "respecting religion" until the sun freezes. There is nothing about their religion or their culture that is worth respect. Everything about Islam is a failure (well, OK, they seem pretty good at producing psychos). Islam --besides the physical threat it poses, of course-- is irrelevant. It creates nothing; it corrupts, usurps, destroys. It's ultimately a parasitic belief, and it wants to use US as its host. We still, for a while, have the option of declining.

All international and political effort must be directed to establishment of an Infidel Bill of Rights. All international and political efforts must be directed to Civil Rights for Infidels.
Infidels shall have the right to be immediately released from any sharia imposed limitations on their inalienable rights. Infidels shall have the inalienable right to not be muslim, to not be subject to jihad, to not be subject to the taking of their life, liberty or property by muslims in any circumstance.
Infidels have a fundamental right to freedom of religion and to freedom of free speech. Infidels have a legitimate right for full and fair freedom to exercise their religious belief anywhere on this globe. Infidels have an inalienable right to build a religious sanctuary anywhere on this globe. Infidels have an inalienable right to be treated equally by muslims in muslim dominated countries, states, cities, or neighborhoods.
We demand the abolition of infidel or so called dhimmi status for infidels by muslims! We demand an apology by muslims for the murder by Mohammed and his accomplices of Asma' bint Marwan and her baby and the millions of other atrocities committed by muslims! Muslims are more despicable than slave owners and traders.
We infidels and dhimmi rightfully demand full civil rights just as muslims. We demand equality under sharia law with muslims. This is our birthright as human beings. Any sharia law that does not recognize this is illegitimate, immoral and an affront to humanity!
We demand the emancipation of infidels and dhimmi from islamic law!
