Europe
Eurabia: Frontpage Interview with Bat Ye'or
This interview was on Sept. 21, but I didn't see it posted here.
Bat Ye'or: Eurabia represents a geo-political reality envisaged in 1973 through a system of informal alliances between, on the one hand, the nine countries of the European Community (EC)which, enlarged, became the European Union (EU) in 1992 and on the other hand, the Mediterranean Arab countries. The alliances and agreements were elaborated at the top political level of each EC country with the representative of the European Commission, and their Arab homologues with the Arab League's delegate. This system was synchronised under the roof of an association called the Euro-Arab Dialogue (EAD) created in July 1974 in Paris. A working body composed of committees and always presided jointly by a European and an Arab delegate planned the agendas, and organized and monitored the application of the decisions.

The field of Euro-Arab collaboration covered every domain: from economy and policy to immigration. In foreign policy, it backed anti-Americanism, anti-Zionism and Israel's delegitimization; the promotion of the PLO and Arafat; a Euro-Arab associative diplomacy in international forums; and NGO collaboration. In domestic policy, the EAD established a close cooperation between the Arab and European media television, radio, journalists, publishing houses, academia, cultural centers, school textbooks, student and youth associations, tourism. Church interfaith dialogues were determinant in the development of this policy. Eurabia is therefore this strong Euro-Arab network of associations -- a comprehensive symbiosis with cooperation and partnership on policy, economy, demography and culture.

#1  I was joking yesterday about the Protocols of the Elders of Arabia, This sounds like the real thing.

#2  Prety much puts proof to my claims of active EU antisemitism. When the say they are against Israel but not antsemitic they lie.

Home Front: Politix
ANOTHER VIETNAM?
JOHN KERRY is famously hard to pin down; you can reach out to grasp his opinion only to find that it has flitted away like a bashful butterfly, or a goldfish you are trying to catch with your bare hands. But nowadays his pronouncements and campaign ads are easy to read. They suggest that Iraq is like Vietnam; that our top priority is accordingly not to win but to get out. John Kerry evidently believes, a propos Vietnam, that we should have run away sooner. Many Americans disagree. Many Americans believe that we should have stood by our friends until a free and stable South Vietnam had taken root.

#1  tipper - a bit of friendly advice: no need for ALL CAPS on the titles unless its something HUGE like a candidate caught with a dead girl or a live boy.

#2  Fuck. Even Vietnam wasn't what the Dhimmicraps mean when they say Vietnam. Truth took a hike a long time ago. Who wants to take the time and show the intellectual honesty needed to understand the complex interwoven realities that were "Vietnam" anymore? Certainly not the Dhimmis. Meme fuckwits, the lot of 'em. InstaFools.

#3  ANOTHER VIETNAM?

Uhh, no.

#4  Machiavelli would vote for Kerry. Why? Because he represents the best opportunity for total war against Muslims. Bush has proven that he will waste billions on smart-bombs, that do nothing to halt enemy atrocity-propaganda. Bush turned a $200 billion surplus into a $450 billion deficit, because of his refusal to use WMD against Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Iran. Only Kerry can be forced to launch. Why? Muslim terrorists will make another 9-11 move, early in the Kerry presidency, and American public opinion will force him to use overwhelming force against enemy-Islam. Bush is a pathological Muslim lover, and a Saudi puppet. Kerry is more secular, and isn't owned like the oil-patch slave.

#6  A4336
Poll a couple of hundred Kerry supporters on how they feel about using overwhelming force and WMD against Muslims, then get back to us.

#7  ah, poor ANonymous4336 - he's obviously a dim troll - and was just sure his comments would be well received by the type of folks who post at a site like rantburg.

#8  Because he represents the best opportunity for total war against Muslims.

While his analysis is flawed, his conclusion is correct. If you want an apocalyptic end to the WOT then voting Kerry is the way to get it. (standard disclaimer - I'm not an American and this is not a solicitation to vote for any candidate ;-))

#9  Muslim terrorists will make another 9-11 move, early in the Kerry presidency, and American public opinion will force him to use overwhelming force against enemy-Islam.

Al Qaeda has been rocked so badly the last three years I seriously doubt they could launch much more than a small arms attack in the US. You can thank Bush, our military and our spooks for that.

Bush is a pathological Muslim lover, and a Saudi puppet. Kerry is more secular, and isn't owned like the oil-patch slave.

The oil industry is a legitimate industry that has, through the production and distribution of its product, made life better for billions of people. Kerry on the other hand is a socialist feltching liar, a man who has spent his entire senate career trying to disarm the USA.

#11  Others believe we should have bombed Hanoi into a smoking ruin, then told the Soviets to STFU if they didn't want to catch a first strike right in the ass...
Posted by: mojo || 10/05/2004 14:48 Comments || Top||

#12  Oil is a legitimate business.
I just wonder why don't we develop neuclear energy. It will deprive Saudis and others from the funds for their hate education and hate charities. It will save this country $400bh per year. It will increase employment in this country. It will reduce our trade deficit. It will further promote technology development.
Any downside?
Posted by: Wondering || 10/05/2004 20:13 Comments || Top||

#13  many seamstresses and dentists employed when the leftists rend their garments and gnash their teeth....so, no downside

#15  "I just wonder why don't we develop neuclear energy."

Because leftist Greenies oppose it. The excuse given for their opposition is safety, but the real reason is they don't want us to have energy.

Iraq-Jordan
When We Get News from the Kuffr, We Must Be Skeptical
From Jihad Unspun, an article by Bruce Kennedy, Editor-in-Chief
JUS [Jihad Unspun] has been covering the Iraqi Resistance for more than a year by publishing the Iraqi Resistance Reports .... When we began publishing resistance information after the US invasion of Iraq, the independent Arabic television networks and several newspapers were reliable sources for information about the Resistance struggle, providing coverage that was perhaps partial and inadequate in scale, due to the vastness of Iraq, but that nevertheless gave a strong indication of the struggle that the Iraqi people were posing the occupiers of their homeland. Combined with our own reporter's filings, we managed to get a reasonably clear view of events on the ground. ....

.... more and more courageous individuals throughout Iraq have in recent months been contributing to the website Mafkarat al-Islam or Islammemo.cc, bringing invaluable information from the battlefield itself to the Arabic reading public. JUS has made ample use of the information provided by Mafkarat al-Islam, as a unique source of information on the unfolding Resistance struggle. ....

... people simply do not believe American soldiers die, particularly in large numbers. This point requires further discussion. We are constantly asked where is the proof? There are several factors here.

#1  At the rate Jihad Unspun has US troops dying, we should have gone through 4 or 5 divisions by now.

I figure they are having some sort of base 2 to
base 10 conversion issue. Maybe they to call up to allan to get someone to work on their calculators.

#2  There's a noticalble shortage of young males in my town.

#3  All a good copy of 1950's and early 1960's commie propaganda. Almmost as funny as current NORK propaganda. We are really putting the screwd to the insurgents, this crap proves it. Something tells me they have their penises taped up too tightly. They sure are not thinking with their brains.
Posted by: Sock Puppet of Doom || 10/05/2004 19:36 Comments || Top||

#4  So don't believe kuffr media reports, because they have no proof, but believe us because we have no proof. Ooooook Habib! alan ackbar!

#5  Header: When We Get News from the Kuffr, We Must Be Skeptical

That's right - when the infidel doctor comes to tell Achmed the crippled guerrilla that his legs are now oozing stumps, Achmed must not believe the kuffar. He must try to get off the bed and try to walk, anyway.

Ummmmmmmm...yeah.
Is "unique" like French for "bullshit"?

#7  Not half as skeptical as we must be when we get "news" from these wankers.

#8  Jihad UnSpun...JUS...Jews...coincidence? I think not.

Clearly, a Mossad operation.
