Islamic tolerance alert: if non-Muslims in Saudi Arabia want to eat during daylight hours in Ramadan, they better not let any Muslims see them — or they could end up being deported. From the Saudi Press Agency, with thanks to the Constantinopolitan Irredentist:
Riyadh, Oct 11, SPA -- The Interior Ministry yesterday requested non-Muslim residents in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to respect feelings of Muslims during the fasting month of Ramadan by abstaining from eating, drinking and smoking in public during the day. The ministry also warned that violators of the rules could face deportation. "Authorities will take deterrent measures such as terminating work contracts of, and deporting, violators," said a statement from the ministry."Non-Muslim residents of this country must respect Muslims' feelings by refraining from eating, drinking or smoking in public places, in the streets and in workplaces during the dawn-to-dusk fast observed by Muslims throughout the holy month," the statement said.
The ministry reminded non-Muslims in the Kingdom that they are obliged to respect Islamic rules and follow the Kingdom's regulations on the basis of the terms of their contracts. The ministry called upon companies and individual employers to explain the statement to their non-Muslim staff and caution them against violating it.

What a hypocritical stance to take! Muslim countries INSIST that non-Muslims respect and observe all Muslim laws, customs, and social mores. Muslims coming to the West INSIST that non-Muslims CHANGE their laws, customs and social mores to fit and accommodate Muslims that have decided to go to the West.
To accomplish their goals they are going to great lengths and greater expense by infiltrating and greasing the palms in influence peddling schemes in the halls of influence and power!
I say that Muslims must respect our laws, customs and social mores and STOP expecting us to accommodate them.

How many times have we heard this in the West ? We "must" respect the feelings of muslims ! What a sad, pathetic, hyper-sensisitve joke of a "religion" it really is. They come over to our culture, complain about our customs, our politics, our whole way of life BUT if anything is said about them - we're "hurting their feelings" ! It's time for all us non-muslims to REALLY hurt their feelings by exposing islam as the sick deathcult it really is.
LOVE LIFE - HATE ISLAM !!!

I read that they can only get about 11% of their workforce from their local Saudi stock. The rest are foreign workers. The locals are too inept or too lazy. I read a book about an Aussie nurse who worked for a year in a Saudi hospital. "Behind the Veil". What a disaster that place is. The bigshots were all Saudi men who wasted time and were arrogant, inefficient jerks who spent half the day either drinking tea or going off to the mosque for half an hour at a time. Hard to be productive when your life is so micro-managed and you have to spend so much time praying to some invented imaginery friend of a long-gone conniving, murderous scumbag. I wouldn't work there for any money. Not worth it. Sounds like a hellhole. And then to have your own freedom to eat or drink infringed upon by their backward tribal belief system is beyond belief. Very hypocritical. They expect us to respect their beliefs in their country and in our own. Arrogance extraordinaire. Especially coming from such inferior backward people. What on earth do they have to feel so superior about anyway?

When I lived there, we would venture out to restaurants in upscale Western compounds that operated like the roaring twenties speak-easys. Their windows were all blacked out and Muslims were strictly excluded. Rooms were set aside at our client's facilities in which non-Muslims could go to consume their lunches that they carried into the office (all restaurants were closed during the day so we all packed a lunch). We had a special coping mechanism: we would obtain ham from the Embassy commissary and we would make it a point to bring ham sandwiches into our Saudi client's offices for lunch.

I have just made the above group yesterday to make people aware of how Islam IS trying to change our laws in our state.
It may be a small effort indeed to start out with, but I will not have their circiculum shoved down the throats of our children here .One of the main C.A.I.R 'chairman' is a teacher here near the state capitol at a high school.He is the initiating the all the crap to be taught.
I have have enough of this ugly cult. My father's country has lived with ugly Islam since I was a 7 year old child! My favorite uncle lives on the opposite end of the savages Abu Sayeef! Yes, he is a U.S. citizen and I wish he'd move back here...I worry every time they set a bomb off...I hate that seditious 'religion'..
But we have got to more than complain about them being here in the U.S.A. to start getting things done. A friend of mine and I are calling on our rep's that will listen and talking to them. Later we plan on Statehouse pickets.The senators and others we get no reply from? We will just expose them.That simple.
CA.I.R. and the rest of any muslim's game here in the west is to cry'discrimination' or mainly 'civil rights violation'...So you have to really be aware that we have GOT to be PRO-ACTIVE
with these sneaky people.
IF WE DO NOT, EXPECT ISLAM IN YOUR SCHOOLS,UNIVERSITIES,and then beleive it not ..expect the U.S.A. to be more and more like Suadi ...''kissing the laws the have had passed for 'equality ' here'' ...and having one day too to ''respect Ramadan''. I am not sure about you..but I'd rather be go to prison first then be forced to submit to an idol god...I will do what I CAN to make sure if does not happen.

In Canada, Muslims are trying to ban non-Halal foods in schools and also demand Prayer-rooms for Muslim-only worshippers.
These are the same people that bitched about Christmas plays,Christmas tree's,or any displays of non-Islamic articles. Now they want Islam forced on all students on the assumptions they must be Islamophobes that need sensitivity training.
I can assure you that the Hijab issue will one day lead to a policy that all girls wear one to not offend Islamic dress codes,they classes will be set up by gender,and next the teacher's will be selected by gender or religion.
My grounds for this assumption is that some Imam's have told Muslims that Public schools are bad for their children since they are exposed to
female teachers with un-Islamic clothes,there is also little time devoted to Islamic teachings.
NO ISLAM - KNOW PEACE

One day soon, there will be Islamic political parties. With the growth of muslims in western countries, they will have enough muslim voters to vote in their own Islamic political party. They will then legally bring in Sharia law.

Banning non halal foods, they want beer banned from college campuses....I would like to see Muslims and Islam banned.
There, now we're even. This is the most easily offended congregation of body odor I've ever seen. Yet, they can saw someone's head off then go eat lunch.
Sawed off little Muslim shits.......feed them to the gators......

Orianna Fallacci reported once that a crowd of SOmalis and other Muslims in FLorence once thronged the spaces in front of the Duomo, and peed on that famous church. Maybe we in the West ought to insist that Muslims in the West show similar respect for Christian and Jewish sensitivities.

Urination was the least of it -- and not only in that particular church.
