...born with the gift of laughter and a sense that the world was mad

Unassailable hatred: There is one type of “hate speech” that Canada’s anti-freedom apparatchniks would never, ever, in a million, billion years weigh in on nor, Heaven forefend, think of curtailing—the type on display in Islamic scripture. In a review of Andrew Bostom’s devastating examination of the sources of Islamic Jew-hated, The Legacy of Islamic Anti-Semitism, Raymond Ibrahim, editor of The Al Qaeda Reader, sums up said hatred as follows:

…What, then, is the primary impetus behind Islam's antipathy for Jews? This is where Dr. Bostom's theological documents are key. We come to discover that, far from being a by-product of Western anti-Semitism or the creation of Israel, animosity toward the Jews has a firm doctrinal base tracing back to Islam's most authoritative texts.

Koranic verse after verse, hadith after hadith, castigate, condemn and curse the Jews; they are called "corrupters," "exploiters," "distorters," "prophet-killers," and, most infamously, "pigs and monkeys." Such slanderous words are contained in the Koran (the eternal words of Allah) and the Hadith (the words of Islam's prophet). Thus, Muslim hostility for Jews clearly has little to do with circumstance or politics.

In short, were Israel to disappear tomorrow — indeed, had it never been founded — Jews would still, according to the eternal words of Islam, be deemed "corrupters," "exploiters," "pigs," "swine," et. al., who, along with Christians, must live in submission to Islam. (It is amazing that this latter point is seen as being lenient on Jews; "polytheists"— like Hindus and Buddhists, for example — must either convert or be put to the sword...

Any thoughts on that, Barbara/ Heather/ Jennifer (a few of our nation’s more or less interchangeable “human rights” apparat-chicks)?

Tammy?

(As an aside—sort of—here’s a bit of info I hadn’t come across before. I found it on babbling Babsy’s Wiki entry:

At a meeting of the Canadian Arab Federation on the day after the British Columbia Human Right Tribunal heard the complaint, Hall served on a panel along with Khurrum Awan, one the student lawyers who helped file the complaint who testified for at the BC Tribunal against Macleans, and Haroon Siddiqui, editor emeritus of the Toronto Star. Hall joked to the audience that she can finally speak freely with her co-panellist Mr. Awan about his complaint. Awan praised Hall's condemnation of Maclean's, stating that he had difficulty developing support until Ms. Hall called Maclean's Islamophobic, and then "everyone wanted to be our uncle.”

That’s our Babsy—the Louise Arbour of Ontario.)

Some people are trying to drag Jewish hatred in it , Islam is not as hateful of jews as some have suggested ,trying to take the attention away from the fact that human rights abuses and war crimes of Israel are a basis for all that.

Yes, I'm certain Israel's human rights violations must be behind it all.

Yours truly,
