Ultimatum to Crimea’s Muslims: Three months to hand over banned Islamic texts
2014-10-17
h/t Gates of Vienna
The authorities of Crimea (now Russian) have given Muslims three months to voluntarily surrender the literature on Islam, authorized under Ukraine but outlawed by the Russian Federation.

"We call on Muslims in possession of this material to deliver it to the religious authorities over the next three months," said the president of the Crimea, Sergei Aksenov, as reported by Interfax. Until the end of December the police will not confiscate the "forbidden literature", but on the first of January, "everything must be in compliance with Russian norms". He guaranteed that the list of banned books will be published in the press and there will be an awareness raising campaign among the local population.

#8  Buddy get my windshield, check my oil and set me straight,
Top my tank with gas and point me t'ward the interstate,
Brother don't you tarry, I'm telling you I just can't wait,
take me back to Houston, everything about her's great.

I won't need a menu, get a case of Lone Star beer,
And a two-inch slab of that prime-cut
Texas steer,
I can hardly stand it, it's too damn crazy here,
Take me bcks to Houston, give my head a chance to clear.

Talkin' 'bout the Yankees, you know they got some funny ways,
And they talk so fast that you never hear a word they say,
Oh it's cold up north, and how I miss the sunny days,
Take me back to Houston, how I miss the southern ways.
(instr)
Heavy on the pedal, rollin' out on highway ten,
My engine's makin' music, carburetor's
kickin' in,
I'll be so elated, when I come rollin' in,
Take me back to Houston, gotta' see her once again,
Take me back to Houston, gotta' see her
once again.
