ISIS BOASTS MUSLIMS BORN IN U.S. WILL BECOME “ARMY OF CONQUEST”

ISIS BOASTS MUSLIMS BORN IN U.S. 
WILL BECOME “ARMY OF CONQUEST”
 Jihadists returning to Europe from Syria to carry out attacks, says former Danish ambassador

With the Islamic State’s
stronghold over areas in Syria and Iraq quickly slipping, ISIS is now
boasting that Muslims born in the United States will become an army of
conquest and are “getting ready for the battle in their homeland”.
According to an article in the Spectator
by BBC world affairs correspondent Paul Wood, “A document is
circulating among Isis members through text messages and Twitter. Titled
‘The caliphate will not perish,’ it is a series of morale-boosting
declarations by Isis leaders, living and dead.”
The
document makes it clear that when ISIS loses its territory, which could
happen in just weeks or months, a “virtual caliphate” will replace the
physical one, with a new generation of jihadis inspired to continue the
fight.
In the document, a member of the Isis
Shura Council “boasts that Muslims born in the US will become an army of
conquest,” according to Wood.
“They
are getting ready for the battle in their homeland. Today the caliphate
is in Iraq and Syria. Tomorrow, it will be in the White House,” asserts
the ISIS council member.
Wood also
spoke to Rolf Holmboe, a former Danish ambassador to Syria, who told
him that nine out of ten Danish ISIS fighters (ethnic Danes and
immigrants) have made it back into Denmark and that some “were being
instructed to smuggle themselves back for operations”.
“There
could obviously be an upsurge in terror attacks in Europe and in the
western world as revenge for the fall of the caliphate,” Holmboe told
Wood.
This clearly exonerates
Donald Trump and his supporters who are concerned about jihadists using
the refugee red carpet to smuggle themselves into the west to carry out
deadly attacks.
As we reported back in 2015,
an ISIS manifesto bragged about how the terror organization brags has
exploited the refugee program to send jihadist sleeper cells to Europe
since 2012
“No doubt, some of these
refugees were undercover fighters of Al Qa’idah and the Islamic State,”
the ISIS manifesto stated. “They were quick to take the opportunity of
entering into the different countries of Europe (most probably as early
as 2012).”
“All this was happening
under the nose of the European intelligence services whose job during
this time (2012) was only to prevent European Muslims from entering
Syria. (This shows how quick the Islamic groups were in planning ahead.
Years before Europe even knew where its Muslim citizens were going –
experienced Islamic fighters had already found safety in Europe.)”
The document also revealed how Muslims were being radicalized inside Islamic ghettos
that the left still refuses to acknowledge even exist despite ongoing
riots and violent unrest in cities like Stockholm, Malmo and Paris.

ITALIAN (OR VATICAN?) SOROS LINKED GROUP: RACIST TO SAY “ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT” OR “ISLAMIC EXTREMIST”

 IS THE POPE & THE VATICAN BEHIND THIS?
 Soros-Linked Group: Racist to Say "Illegal Immigrant" or "Islamic Extremist"
SOROS LINKED GROUP: RACIST TO SAY 
“ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT” OR “ISLAMIC EXTREMIST” 
 Italian organization pushes media to hide ethnicity 
of migrants who commit crimes
BY CLIFFORD CUNNINGHAM

An Italian-based lobbying organization tied to George Soros
is calling on journalists to eliminate all language that could portray
migrants in a negative light, including phrases like “illegal immigrant”
and “Islamic extremist.”
The list of terms to be banned for use by journalists was released by Association Carta di Roma, an Italian-based immigration lobbying organization that “seeks to be a stable reference point for those who work on daily basis with media and minorities issues.”
Founded
in December 2011, Association Carta di Roma uses “research and
monitoring activities,” along with “training activities for media
operators,” to promote “respect and guarantee of the rights of asylum
seekers, refugees, migrants or minorities in general.”

The organization has requested terms such as “clandestine”
(clandestine migrants), “zingari” (gypsies), “nomadi” (nomads),
and “extracomunitari” (those coming from outside the European Union) not
be used by journalists.
While those terms broadly encompass a
large number of people, even precise ethnic terms such as “Albanian,”
“Maghrebi” and “Chinese” should not be used in news reports because
“today, they are no longer neutral.”
Association Carta di Roma also demanded
journalists not report on the ethnic origin of those who commit crimes,
stating “journalists are encouraged to ensure the anonymity of
asylum-seekers, refugees, victims of trafficking and migrants involved
in news events – including those involving crime – where reference to
their identity could cause them harm.”
The phrase “Islamic
extremists” should be replaced by the term “extremists” in order to
avoid causing unwarranted prejudice against Muslims, according to the
organization.
Journalists should take cultural diversity into
account in their reporting in order to ‘promote mutual understanding
between national, social, cultural and religious groups in the local
area, therefore enhancing social cohesion,” according to the report.
George
Soros, through his Open Society Foundation, is a major financial
supporter of Association Carta di Roma; the Open Society Foundation logo
features prominently on the Carta di Roma website, as does the logo for
the Untied Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.

 

RUSSIAN BANK DOCUMENTS SHOW HOW PUTIN LAUNDERED MONEY TO HILLARY CLINTON & JOHN PODESTA

 Exclusive: Russian Bank Docs Show How Putin Laundered Money to Hillary & Podesta
RUSSIAN BANK DOCUMENTS SHOW HOW 
PUTIN LAUNDERED MONEY TO HILLARY CLINTON 
& JOHN PODESTA 
 Now we know why Clinton & Co. were so desperate 
to frame Trump with ties to Putin
BY JEROME R. CORSI
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
 

Today Infowars investigative journalist Jerome Corsi met with
former vice-head of Armed Services Committee and the House Homeland
Security Committee, Curt Weldon, to discuss his committees’ deep
research into the Clinton technology transfers to Russia in exchange for
Clinton Foundation donations.  Weldon validated much that is presented
in the following article, which is part one of a series of investigative
articles coming out over the upcoming week based on intel by Weldon and
other sources:
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congress may want
to examine concrete evidence showing Russian President Vladimir Putin
paying Hillary Clinton and John Podesta for a long time before the
mainstream media goes even more overboard trying to fabricate a tie
between Putin and President Donald Trump.
The money trail
hunt begins with a document Infowars has obtained from the Russian
Central Bank “Registry of Significant Control,” known generally as the
“RSC Registry.”
This document traces the ownership of Metcombank, a
relatively small Russian-domiciled bank located in the Russian Ural
Mountains, to ownership by Viktor Vekselberg, a Russian billionaire with
close ties to Putin.
As we shall see this document provides
evidence of the circuitous path the Russian government has been using
since Hillary Clinton was secretary of state to make large financial
payments to John Podesta and to the Clinton Foundation.

Be sure to keep referring to this document to cross-check as you continue reading the article below.
As
the RSC Registry makes clear, Vekselberg has been paying Clinton and
Podesta through a complicated money laundering scheme involving
Metcombank in Russia, with payments tracing back to the Renova Group, a
Russian-based energy and investment international conglomerate also
owned by Vekselberg.

A March 1, 2013 article from Russian media in which Vekselberg confirmed the questionable bank deposits.The
funds rediverted to Clinton and Podesta through the Renova Group and
Metcombank originate in large part from Rusnano — a state-owned
investment fund owned by the Russian government. Conveniently,
Vekselberg is a board member for Renova.
A NYT article from April 23, 2015 revealing how Clinton made military transfers to Russia.
The entire scheme involves a Netherlands-listed private company that
plays prominently into the international money laundering the Russian
government has been conducting through offshore entities in the Cayman
Islands, as documented by the Panama Papers.Money laundering
schemes created by professional criminals are typically complicated.  To
begin understanding the RSC registry on Metcombank, note that the
bottom box on the chart (second page) makes clear that Vekselberg
effectively owns 100 percent of Metcombank.
First, the simple part.

Metcombank appears to be the bank Vekselberg has used to make transfers to the Clinton Foundation,
with the money flowing first through the Moscow branch of Metcombank,
and from there into Deutsche Bank and Trust Company Americas in New York
City, finally ending up in a private bank account in the Bank of
America that is operated by the Clinton Foundation.
How Putin paid Podesta is more complicated.

John
Podesta, the campaign chairman of former Secretary of State Hillary
Clinton during her 2016 presidential run. Podesta has deep ties to
Russia despite blaming President Trump of the same.The
complication begins when we examine the RSC Registry and realize that
Vekselberg owns Metcombank through a series of intermediary companies,
starting with the Renova Group, a Russian corporate conglomerate with
interests in oil, energy, and telecommunication that lists Vekselberg as
chairman of the board.
The Renova Group owns and operates Renova
Assets Ltd., a private investment company headquartered in the Bahamas
for which Bloomberg lists no key executives, board members, or members of the executive committee.
Conveniently, Vekselberg also has ties to Rusnano, the Russian State Investment Fund, via his ownership and management of the Renova Group in Russia.
In 2011, Vekselberg directed Rusnano to make a $35 million investment
into Joule Unlimited, a small Massachusetts-based energy company, owned
by Joule Global Holdings, N.V., in the Netherlands, with Joule Global
Stichting, the ultimate controlling entity.
The Rusnano investment
into Joule Unlimited was made when then-Secretary of State Hillary
Clinton spearheaded the transfer of U.S. advanced technology to Russia,
some with military uses, as part of her “reset” strategy with the
country.

As previously reported, in the summer of 2011, while he was advising then-Secretary Clinton on State Department policy, John Podesta joined the board of three Joule entities:
Joule Unlimited, a small Massachusetts-based energy company; its
holding company, Joule Global Holdings, N.V., which was based in the
Netherlands; and Joule Global Stichting, which appears to be the
ultimate controlling entity.
Podesta, it turns out, has been paid
an undisclosed amount, starting in 2011, for serving on the executive
board of Joule Unlimited that he neglected to report to regulatory
authorities in the U.S., as well consulting fees from the Wyss
Foundation, a group controlled by Swiss billionaire Hansjörg Wyss, an
investor in Joule Energy.
In an Aug. 2016 report entitled “From
Russia with Money,” the Government Accountability Institute noted that
Podesta consulted for a foundation run by one of the investors in Joule
Energy, Hansjörg Wyss, who in turn was a major Clinton Foundation donor.
Podesta was evidently paid $87,000 by the Wyss Foundation in 2013, according to federal tax records.
The
GAI report also documented the Wyss Charitable Foundation has given
between $1 million to $5 million to the Clinton Foundation.
Joule Global Stichting was established in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, on March 14, 2011.
John
Podesta joined the Joule Global Stichting’s executive board on June 25,
2011. The Joule Global Stichting is a foundation, but it’s not strictly
a foundation in the charitable sense.
A foundation of this type, a
Dutch stichting, is a popular means for reducing one’s tax burden, as
noted on the website of the Panamanian law firm Mossack Fonseca, which
is at the heart of the Panama Papers investigation into offshore banking and money-laundering operations as archived and released by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists.
The
Government Accountability Institute concluded that although Podesta is
listed on the corporate records, he failed to disclose his membership on
the board of Joule Global Stichting in his federal financial disclosure
forms when he joined the Obama White House as a senior advisor.
To
complete the circle, Vekselberg, the Renova Group, the Skolkovo
Foundation, and Hansjörg Wyss all have ties to the Clinton Foundation,
either as substantial donors or as participants in the Clinton Global
Initiative.
Joule Global Stichting and Joule Global Holdings, N.V., also figure prominently as a client of Mossack Fonseca.

 

FRANCE CRIMINALIZES PRO LIFE SPEECH

FRANCE CRIMINALIZES PRO LIFE SPEECH 

 
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
 

TheNewAmerican.com
“Freedom of expression does not signify a right to lying,” asserted
French Minister for Families, Children, and Women’s Rights Laurence
Rossignol. A new law in France imposes a punishment of a maximum of two
years in prison and a fine of $30,000 for “spreading or transmitting
allegations or indications liable to intentionally mislead, with the
purpose of deterring [from abortion], on the characteristics or medical
consequences of a voluntary interruption” of pregnancy. In other words,
if a person asserts, on a pro-life website, that abortion could lead to
certain adverse medical situations for the pregnant woman, and the
government considers that “mis-explaining the need for a new law in
France,” that person could be criminally prosecuted.
“Voluntary interruption” of pregnancy is, of course, euphemistic
language for abortion, and speaking out against what one considers the
taking of innocent human life — unborn babies — through abortion is
considered criminal in France.
Clear language has been a frequent victim in the abortion argument since even before the infamous Roe v. Wade
decision of 1973. Whenever referring to an unborn child in the womb,
the pro-abortionists start speaking Latin, instead of English, calling
the child a “fetus” — which means “young one.” And, whereas we used to
refer to a miscarriage as “losing the baby,” the pro-abortionists call
it “losing a pregnancy.” Then, there is the euphemistic “reproductive
rights.” Finally, those who favor abortion on demand prefer the term
“pro-choice,” without saying what they are “pro-choice” about. When
reporting on the dispute, American leftist journalists use the language
of those who favor abortion on demand, giving the “pro” term to those
who are for legalized abortion, and the “anti” word to those who want to
defend the unborn child, calling them “anti-abortion.”
The bill in the National Assembly in France was designed to stop the
“electronic” or “online” dissemination of any information that has the
intent of dissuading women from seeking an abortion to end their
pregnancy. But the wording is so broadly written that any person, or any
group, that speaks out publicly against the grisly practice, calling
attention to the dangers or risks of having an abortion, can become
subject to criminal prosecution.
In France, where abortion has long been legal as a purely elective
(for any reason) procedure and totally funded by tax money as a
“fundamental right,” the socialist government was moved to action after
it became known that Google searches made for abortion providers also
took women to pro-life websites, set up to discourage abortion. The
pro-life sites explained that there are risks associated with abortion,
and suggested places where a pregnant woman could go if she wished to
seek help in keeping the baby. The pro-life groups assert that abortion
can have negative side effects and cause health problems or
psychological consequences. (On a personal note, this writer met a woman
years ago who said that she had an abortion when she was 17 years old,
and had nightmares for about 10 years after that. That would appear to
confirm the pro-life websites. The woman eventually became a Christian
and a pro-life activist).
In contrast, the government’s Ministry of Health created a
pro-abortion website that provided information on access to abortion.
The Ministry of Health contends that the pro-life sites perpetuate
“misconceptions” about the procedure. On the pro-abortion government
site, there is a page on what the Ministry of Health calls
“misinformation about voluntary interruption of pregnancy,” a page in
which the government argues that pro-life sites are not really
information sites, but are rather just pretending they are. (This sounds
a bit like the claim that “fake news” allegedly helped Donald Trump win
the U.S. presidential election last November.) Instead, on the
government sites, women are urged to go to Planned Parenthood or other
pro-abortion sites that provide abortion clinic addresses.
In 2001, the government banned “moral and psychological pressure
searching to hinder abortion.” This law was created to stop the
activities of pro-life activists in which they spoke to women planning
to obtain an abortion, or held demonstrations near abortion providers in
clinics or public hospitals. An elderly and nearly blind pro-lifer was
fined for the crime of giving knitted baby boots to a woman in the
stairway of the building where Planned Parenthood had its offices in
Paris.
Regarding the latest law, Rossignol said, “anti-abortion activists
will remain free to express their hostility to abortion, provided they
are honest about who they are, what they do, and what they want.” If a
pro-life site does not do that, said Rossignol, then it is guilty of
“manipulating minds.”
And who will decide whether or not pro-life material is “misleading,”
or involved in “manipulating minds”? A pro-abortion government
bureaucrat, of course. Presently, government-published “information” on
abortion uses what pro-lifers contend is misleading information. For
example, the socialist Hollande government refers to a surgical abortion
in very odd language — calling it an “aspiration of the egg.” Rossignol
even argued in the National Assembly that “abortion is not the removing
of a life.”
Clearly, the law is intended to chill the freedom of speech of the
pro-life movement in France. On the other hand, there is no provision in
the law to punish pro-abortionists for disseminating “misleading”
information.
There is opposition to the new law. Jean-Marie Le Mene, president of
the Fondation Jérôme-Lejeune, stated, “That which dissuades from
abortion is not false information, but correct information.” The
Republican (center-right) party called the law an infringement on
freedom of expression, and voted in opposition. Additionally, they have
vowed to ask the Constitutional Council to set the law aside as being
contrary to the French Constitution’s protections of free speech.
Unfortunately, what has happened historically in France is all too
familiar to those in America who have seen our own Republicans in
action. Past laws against abortion have been opposed by the Republican
Party of France when they are in the minority. Once back in the
majority, however, they have made no moves to roll back these laws,
which increasingly advance the cause of those who favor abortion.
No doubt pro-abortionists in the United States have taken note of
these anti-free-speech and pro-abortion actions in France by that
country’s socialist government. If the American Left had the votes,
would they enact a similar law here?

MARYLAND: MOSQUE HOSTS CELEBRATION TO HONOR JIHAD MURDERER OF FOE OF PAKISTAN’S BLASPHEMY LAWS

 
MARYLAND: MOSQUE HOSTS CELEBRATION 
TO HONOR JIHAD MURDERER OF FOE 
OF PAKISTAN’S BLASPHEMY LAWS

 "Whoever disrespects the Holy Prophet Muhammad is worthy of death, and
 even if disrespects indirectly he is still worthy of death. Even if 
someone asks for forgiveness it is not acceptable.”
Large numbers of people who believe this are entering the U.S., and
obviously many are already here. What could possibly go wrong?

“US Mosque hosts celebration in honor of Pakistani killer,” by Ehsan Rehan, Rabwah Times, February 14, 2017:

A U.S. Mosque on Sunday celebrated the death anniversary
of a Pakistani man who shot and killed a sitting Governor for
criticizing the country’s Blasphemy Laws.

Mumtaz Qadri,
who was the Governor’s bodyguard, assassinated liberal Pakistani
politician and Governor of Punjab province Salman Taseer in 2011 for
speaking out against Pakistan’s controversial Blasphemy laws and
expressing solidarity with a Christian woman who had been accused of
blasphemy. After Qadri was charged with murder by an anti-terrorism
court and hanged in 2016, more than 100,000 people came out to attend
his funeral.

The Gulzar E Madina Mosque in Pikesville, Maryland hosted an “Urs” in honor of the infamous killer on February 12th. Urs
is a traditional commemoration usually given to Saints and Holy
personages. The Mosque also advertised the event in the February 9th
edition of Urdu Times, America’s most widely distributed Urdu language
newspaper.

The Urs or commemoration was attended by dozens of people
including young children and teenagers. Event speakers included
Pakistan-based Islamic singer Muhammad Ali Soharwardi, NewJersey-based Islamic scholar Syed Saad Ali and Baltimore-based Islamic cleric Ijaz Hussain among others.

Pakistan-based Ali Soharwardi has been on a U.S tour for the past few
weeks and performed at several events in New York and New Jersey before
making his way to Maryland.

Speaking at the event, an unidentified speaker said:

“Whoever disrespects the Holy Prophet Muhammad is
worthy of death, and even if disrespects indirectly he is still worthy
of death. Even if someone asks for forgiveness it is not acceptable”

Speaking at the event New Jersey-based Islamic scholar Syed Saad Ali asked the attendees why they did not take any action after the arrest of Qadri, Ali said:

“Warrior Mumtaz Qadri kissed the noose in love for Prophet
Muhammad When Qadri was in jail for 5 years what did we do? what effort
did we make (for his release), Why did we not go where he was being
held? Qadri did everything for us, and for the love of Islam and we
could not even stand by himPeople say Islam teaches peace…..I say Islam
teaches us Ghairat (Honor) Who will now stand up?”

Referring to another Blasphemy Killer, Tanveer Ahmad, Ali said:

“Our warrior Tanveer who is sitting in a jail in Scotland, I don’t know if someone knows or not, when that Mirzai
(Ahmadi) spoke his “sacrilegious rubbish” he went there and stabbed him
27 times and the police arrested him and right now he is in a jail in
Scotland. So if we just take a step forward, angels will automatically
come for our help. But what Mumtaz Qadri has done is something amazing,
he has surpassed all these warriors”

In march 2016, British-Pakistani man Tanveer Ahmad killed fellow
British-Pakistani Asad Shah in Scotland for “disrespecting Islam”. Shah
was a member of the minority Ahmadiyya Islamic sect, the Ahmadis are
considered heretics by mainstream Muslims.

Baltimore-based Islamic cleric Ijaz Hussain praised the religious freedom in the U.S. and said:

“We have some freedoms here (in the U.S.) which we do not
even have in other Muslim countries, this is the beauty of this
country. There are some countries where we can’t even praise the
prophet, we can’t celebrate the Day of Imam Hussain, this country has
freedom of religion and this is the beauty of this country.”

Hussain further said:

” Mumtaz Qadri was not a terrorist and whoever says “We are with you O Prophet” cannot be a terrorist.”

He went on to condemn American Muslim organizations for not taking action against Blasphemers, Hussain said

“When the blasphemous film was released in the U.S,
everyone was sleeping including CAIR, ISNA, ICNA and others, and now
when the ban has come into effect, they all have risen up, because they
are not letting Muslims come into this (so called) heaven”

The speakers also collected donations which they claimed would be used to help Syrian refugees get to the U.S.

 

BETH MOORE’S ECUMENICAL PHILOSOPHY

 BETH MOORE’S ECUMENICAL PHILOSOPHY 
BY DAVID CLOUD
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
 
Enlarged February 22, 2017 (first published February 9, 2005)

 Beth Moore is one of the most popular female Christian speakers and authors. Her Bible-study books have sold millions of copies. Her Living Proof Live conferences, hosted by LifeWay (Southern Baptist), draw thousands of attendees. She hosts her own radio program (Living Proof with Beth Moore) and appears regularly on the television program LIFE Today.
Christian Reader magazine called her “America’s Bible Teacher.”
Beth Moore’s Ecumenism
Moore’s
meetings are attended by people from “every denomination,” because she
“doesn’t get caught up in divisive doctrinal issues” and “steers clear
of topics that could widen existing rifts between different streams in
the body of Christ” (Charisma, June 2003).

This
is the unscriptural “keep it positive” ecumenical philosophy that is so
helpful in furthering end time apostasy and building the apostate
one-world “church.” Paul exhorted Timothy not to allow any doctrine
other than sound Bible doctrine, but Mrs. Moore knows better than to be
so intolerant and narrow-minded (1 Tim. 1:3).

Moore’s
worship leader, Travis Cottrell, “has a uniquely fresh approach to
worship that brings the church together,” an approach “that permeates
every denominational wall” (LifeWay Christian Resources web site).

In
a conference in Houston, Texas, Moore claimed that God showed her a
picture vision in which Christ was looking down on Houston and seeing
all of the different churches. (She says, “God speaks to me often by
putting a picture in my head.”)

Moore had women come up to the
platform and sit in little groups to represent a hodgepodge of churches
and doctrine. She says: “We are a very interdenominational group. … I
can’t tell you how much I love that diversity.” The groups she
highlighted were United Methodist, Lutheran, Presbyterian, Baptist,
Charismatic, and Roman Catholic.

Moore claimed that God showed
her that the Roman Catholic Church is part of the “church” as He sees it
and that it should be included in ecumenical unity.

See http://apprising.org/2011/12/22/beth-moore-gods-vision-for-the-church-includes-the-roman-catholic-church-denomination/

http://pulpitandpen.org/2015/01/12/beth-moore-confronts-young-pastors-wife-for-criticizing-her-direct-divine-revelation/

Moore
is the blind leading the blind. She ignores the Bible’s solemn warning
about the multiplication of false teachers and the explosion of end-time
apostasy. She ignores the fact that within the denominational diversity
she “loves” is found a bewildering variety of heresies, such as
baptismal regeneration, infant baptism, sacramentalism, Mariolatry,
veneration of relics, popery, antinomianism, universalism, contemplative
mysticism, theological modernism, The Shack’s female goddessism, to name a few.

We
are living in the midst of rampant end time apostasy as prophesied in
the Scriptures (2 Timothy 3-4). It is not time to “permeate”
denominational walls; it is time to raise up walls of biblical
separation as a godly protection from error and worldliness.

Romans 16:17
and Jude 3 and similar commandments are commonly ignored by popular
evangelical speakers, but they will not be ignored at the judgment seat
of Christ.

“For the time will come when they will not endure
sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves
teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from
the truth, and shall be turned unto fables” (2 Timothy 4:3-4).

“Now
I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences
contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them” (Rom. 16:17).

“Beloved,
when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it
was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should
earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the
saints” (Jude 3).
Beth Moore and Contemplative Prayer
Beth
Moore is also on the contemplative prayer bandwagon. She joined Richard
Foster, Dallas Willard, and other contemplatives on the Be Still
DVD, which was published in April 2008 by Fox Home Entertainment.
Shortly after it was released she issued a retraction of sorts, but she
soon retracted her retraction. In a statement published on May 26, 2008,
Moore’s Living Proof Ministries said: “We believe that once you view
the Be Still video you will agree that there is no problem with its expression of Truth” (Beth Moore statement, Lighthouse Trails website.)

To the contrary, the very fact that it features Richard Foster and Dallas Willard are serious problems!

Lighthouse Trails issued the following discerning warning:
“In
the DVD, there are countless enticements, references and comments that
clearly show its affinity with contemplative spirituality. For instance,
Richard Foster says that anyone can practice contemplative prayer and
become a ‘portable sanctuary’ for God. This panentheistic view of God is
very typical for contemplatives. … The underlying theme of the Be Still
DVD is that we cannot truly know God or be intimate with Him without
contemplative prayer and the state of silence that it produces. While
the DVD is vague and lacking in actual instruction on word or phrase
repetition (which lies at the heart of contemplative prayer), it is
really quite misleading. What they don’t tell you in the DVD is that
this state of stillness or silence is, for the most part, achieved
through some method such as mantra-like meditation. THE PURPOSE OF THE
DVD, IN ESSENCE, IS NOT TO INSTRUCT YOU IN CONTEMPLATIVE PRAYER BUT
RATHER TO MAKE YOU AND YOUR FAMILY HUNGRY FOR IT. The DVD even promises
that practicing the silence will heal your family problems. … THIS
PROJECT IS AN INFOMERCIAL FOR CONTEMPLATIVE PRACTICE, and because of the
huge advertising campaign that Fox Home Entertainment has launched,
contemplative prayer could be potentially introduced into millions of
homes around the world.

“[On the DVD Moore says], ‘… if we
are not still before Him [God], we will never truly know to the depths
of the marrow of our bones that He is God. There’s got to be a
stillness.’ … [But is] it not true that as believers we come to Him by
grace, boldly to His throne, and we call Him our friend? No stillness,
no mantra, no breath prayer, no rituals. Our personal relationship with
Him is based on His faithfulness and His love and His offer that we have
access to Him through the blood of Jesus Christ, and not on the basis
of entering an altered state of consciousness or state of bliss or
ecstasy as some call it” (“Beth Moore Gives Thumbs Up to Be Still DVD,” Lighthouse Trails report.
In her book When Godly People Do Ungodly Things (2002), Moore recommends contemplative Roman Catholics Brother Lawrence and Brennan Manning.

Of Manning, she says that his contribution to our generation “may be a gift without parallel” (p. 72) and calls Ragamuffin Gospel
“one of the most remarkable books” (p. 290). She does not warn her
readers that Manning never gives a clear testimony of salvation or a
clear presentation of the gospel in his writings, that he attends the
Catholic Mass regularly, that he believes it is wrong for churches to
require that homosexuals repent before they can be members, that he
promotes the use of mantras to create a thoughtless state of silent
meditation, that he spent six months in isolation in a cave and spends
eight days each year in silent retreat under the direction of a
Dominican nun, that he promotes the dangerous practice of visualization,
that he quotes very approvingly from New Agers such as Beatrice Bruteau
(who says, “We have realized ourselves as the Self that says only I AM
… unlimited, absolute I AM”) and Matthew Fox (who says all religions
lead to the same God), and that he believes in universal salvation, that
everyone including Hitler will go to heaven. (For documentation see “A
Biographical Catalog of Contemplative Mystics” in our book Contemplative Mysticism: A Powerful Ecumenical Bond.)

If
Moore truly wants to disassociate herself from the contemplative

JEW HATRED AT “SAVIOURS’ DAY” DETROIT: NATION OF ISLAM MEMBERS SCREAM “ALLAHU AKBAR” AS FARRAKHAN TAKES STAGE, DENOUNCES JEWS

JEW HATRED IN DETROIT: NATION OF ISLAM MEMBERS SCREAM “ALLAHU AKBAR” AS FARRAKHAN TAKES STAGE, DENOUNCES JEWS
Detroit: Nation of Islam members scream “Allahu akbar” as Farrakhan takes stage, denounces Jews
 FARRAKHAN SLAMS TRUMP AS IRRELEVANT 
TO THE CAUSE OF RADICAL ISLAM

“I want to disabuse the Jews today of the false claim that you are
the chosen of God — that Israel or Palestine belongs to you. I want to
disabuse you of that. I’m going to tell you about your future. You that
think you have power to frighten and dominate the peoples of the world.
I’m here to announce the end of your time.”

The man introducing Farrakhan said that “Allahu akbar” meant “God is
greatest.” It doesn’t, actually. The actual meaning is “Allah is
greater,” meaning Allah Is Greater Than Your God.

The Nation of Islam does not subscribe to orthodox Islam, which does
not blame “the world’s ills on white people,” but its Jew-hatred is
certainly mainstream Islam, and it is often in the U.S. a way station:
men convert to it and then pass from it into orthodox Sunni groups, and
even then turn to jihad. Remember John Muhammad, the Beltway Sniper.

“Thousands chant ‘Allahu Akbar’ for Farrakhan in Detroit,” by Kyle Olson, American Mirror, February 20, 2017:

The Nation of Islam had its annual gathering in Detroit
over the weekend and thousands of attendees chanted “Allahu Akbar” as
Louis Farrakhan made his way onto the stage.

During his appearance at Joe Louis Arena, Farrakhan denounced Jews and told them they are not God’s “chosen” people.

“I want to disabuse the Jews today of the false claim that you are
the chosen of God — that Israel or Palestine belongs to you,” he said.

“I want to disabuse you of that. I’m going to tell you about your
future. You that think you have power to frighten and dominate the
peoples of the world. I’m here to announce the end of your time,”
Farrakhan said, slamming his hand on the podium.

He blamed the world’s ills on white people.

“For 6,000 years, the people of the earth have suffered under a
mischief-making rule. Bloodshed and war, hatred and strife, all because a
man with a new color — or the lack thereof — thought that he was better
than all of those who inhabited the earth before he was even a
thought,” Farrakhan said.

“But I am here to announce today the end of his world and the
beginning of a brand new reality that all human beings will enjoy peace,
freedom justice and equality under the rule of Allah.”…

“I AM A MUSLIM TOO” RALLY IN TIMES SQUARE, NEW YORK CITY, A SLAP AT PRESIDENTS WASHINGTON & LINCOLN DURING THEIR COMMEMORATION DAY
 MUSLIM “CALL TO PRAYER”
 RALLY & SPEAKERS
  “Allahu akbar!”: Islamic call to prayer sounds at #IAmAMuslimToo rally in Times Square
BY ROBERT SPENCER

(Thanks to Jason Stern for the video).

Little do these enlightened Leftists know that this cry of “Allahu
akbar” could one day be turned upon them, with no hint of gratitude for
their previous service.

Media outlets routinely mangle the true meaning of “Allahu akbar,”
the ubiquitous battle cry of Islamic jihadists as they commit mass
murder.

The war-cry is mistranslated in the Western media as “God is great.” But the actual meaning is “Allah is greater,” meaning Allah Is Greater Than Your God or Government.

It is the aggressive declaration that Allah and Islam are
dominant over every other form of government, religion, law or ethic,
which is why Islamic jihadists in the midst of killing infidels so often
shout it.


One primary purpose of shouting is to “strike terror in the hearts of the enemies of Allah.”
Chief 9/11 hijacker Mohamed Atta made this explicit in his letter to himself
before carrying out his jihad mission: “When the confrontation begins,
strike like champions who do not want to go back to this world. Shout,
‘Allahu Akbar,’ because this strikes fear in the hearts of the
non-believers.” This is why the Fort Hood jihad killer, Nidal Malik
Hasan, shouted it as he shot thirteen Americans in November 2009, and
why so many other jihadis have used it essentially as an announcement
that non-Muslims are about to die.
But it is also frequently used when no
infidels are within earshot. According to Islam, Allah is sovereign and
dominant over all things, and controls everything. His control is so
absolute he decides if unbelievers reject Islam, according to the Qur’an.“If
we had willed, We could have given every soul its guidance,” but
instead, “I will surely fill Hell with jinn and people all together.”

MUSIC CENSORSHIP: HIGH SCHOOL BAND REFUSES TO BUY MUSIC FROM “WHITE COMPOSERS”

MUSIC CENSORSHIP: HIGH SCHOOL BAND REFUSES 
TO BUY MUSIC FROM “WHITE COMPOSERS” 
 Students taught to view music in terms of race, gender, rather than artistic merit
BY ADAN SALAZAR
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
 A Minnesota high school band is taking political correctness to a
 whole new level by only purchasing music created by “composers of 
color.”
 Band directors at the Spring Lake Park High School outside of St. Paul 
say they’re taking inclusivity and diversity center stage.

“The
band directors… have pledged to include at least one piece by a female
composer and one by a composer of color in each concert, for each of the
school’s bands,” reports NPR.org.
But the directors are also taking another extraordinary step in virtue signaling their diversity.

“We made a commitment this year to only buy music from composers of color,” band director Brian Lukkasson admits.
Nora Tycast, another band director at the school, sees no problem with scrapping white composers in the name of “inclusivity.”
“The more you practice talking about race, culture and ethnicity the more comfortable you are,” Tycast told NPR.
Unfortunately finding music to fit their race-exclusion agenda isn’t going so smooth, one of the directors claims.
“It’s
really hard to find music because there’s just not a lot of composers
of color that are being published,” Lukkasson explains.
As expected, not everyone is on board with the band directors’ decision.
“This is what racism looks like,” a commenter at the conservative Daily Wire said.
Another
commenter referred to a quote by civil rights leader Martin Luther
King, Jr., who famously stated, “I have a dream that my four little
children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by
the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.”
“Congratulations, idiots,” another person lamented, “on introducing racism into an area where it had all but disappeared.”

 
 

REDDIT JOINS FACEBOOK, TWITTER IN CENSORING PRO TRUMP CONTENT IN NEW CRACKDOWN

REDDIT CENSORS PRO TRUMP CONTENT 
IN NEW CRACKDOWN 
 Reddit joins Facebook to control public opinion on-line
BY KIT DANIELS
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
 

Reddit is banning the vast majority of pro-Donald Trump posts from appearing on its “most popular” page frequented by new users.
The
online discussion site announced it was clamping down on what would
appear as “popular” by showing visitors only popular posts from
handpicked categories, which would apparently exclude anything from pro-Trump subreddits.
In fact, a graph reveals that Reddit administrators are actively filtering out posts from The_Donald
subreddit from appearing in /r/popular; if the filter represented just
an algorithm based on what users filtered out themselves, one would
expect more posts filtered from r/politics.

Instead, there’s a clear bias against anything pro-Trump, and there’s precedent to believe this is intentional censorship.
Back in Nov., Reddit CEO Steve Huffman vowed to suppress certain pro-Trump posts from appearing elsewhere on Reddit.
“Posts
stickied on r/the_donald will no longer appear in r/all – r/all is not
our frontpage, but is a popular listing that our most engaged users
frequent, including myself,” he wrote. “The sticky feature was designed for moderators to make announcements or highlight specific posts.”
“It
was not meant to circumvent organic voting, which r/the_donald does to
slingshot posts into r/all, often in a manner that is antagonistic to
the rest of the community.”

But Huffman’s justification is overshadowed by the scandal in which he was caught editing comments by pro-Trump users critical of him on Reddit.
He
isn’t alone.  Since Trump’s election, the largest social media sites
including Facebook and Twitter have suppressed Trump supporters – and
perhaps even the president himself.
Twitter in particular is apparently censoring positive responses to Trump’s tweets while showcasing the negative ones.
On
Feb. 7, Twitter announced it was “collapsing potentially abusive or
low-quality Tweets” in the interest of “safety,” a catch-all term which
gives the social media giant carte blanche to suppress anything it deems
“offensive.”
Trump supporters noticed this caused negative
responses to Trump’s tweets to rise to the top of the page, allowing
anti-Trump fanatics to dominate the discussion.
Facebook has also
long attempted to control discussions on its site by blocking links to
alternative media and banning those critical of its censorship
practices.

Reddit Intensifies Censorship of Pro-Trump Content

                               

“According to the New York Times,
three current and former anonymous employees claim the company has had a
new tool developed specifically to restrict certain kinds of posts from
appearing in users’ news feeds in certain geographic areas,” reported
the Anti-Media. “This form of censorship has been deployed under the
auspices of facilitating Facebook’s entry into the Chinese market.”
“Previously,
the company did this in Pakistan, Russia, and Turkey, where the
respective governments requested the ability for third parties to review
and block posted content. Facebook granted the requests and removed
approximately 55,000 total pieces of content.”
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg was also caught discussing the censorship of anti-migrant posts during a “hot mic” incident with German Chancellor Angela Merkel.
He also met with with Lu Wei, the czar of China’s draconian Internet censorship system, in 2014, where the Facebook CEO lauded Wei as a visionary.

Since rising to prominence in 2011, Wei has personally overseen the
reduction of Internet access in China to cover-up mass government
corruption and criticism of communism in general.
This censorship has kept the Chinese population ignorant and easier to control by the ruling elite.
For example, Chinese citizens are among the least aware of the 1989 Tiananmen Square Massacre which took place in the heart of Beijing because government censors routinely clamp down on any mention of the incident.
Facebook
is likewise motivated to restrict speech as part of the tech elite’s
agenda to eradicate nation-states in favor of a globalist superstate
controlled by an unelected network of titans in technology, media,
government and academia.
The social media giants – from Facebook
to Reddit – are establishing themselves as virtual “nations” ran by
authoritarian leaders, such as Zuckerberg and Huffman, who control the
public opinion of their “citizens” – the users – by suppressing
criticism of their agenda.
These social media sites form
an anti-competitive system designed to derail rival viewpoints to the
globalist model while also dehumanizing individuals by making them feel
isolated and inadequate, despite the fact that it’s the individual who
triggers the combustive spark that drives the engine of human
progression.

THE TRUTH ABOUT POLITICAL CORRECTNESS: 
 

FLOODED WITH ISLAMIC JIHADIS, CULTURALLY ENRICHED MALMO, SWEDEN IS THE MOST DANGEROUS CITY IN WESTERN EUROPE

 Culturally Enriched Malmo, Sweden is the Most Dangerous City in Western Europe
CULTURALLY ENRICHED MALMO, SWEDEN IS THE MOST DANGEROUS CITY IN WESTERN EUROPE 
 43% foreign population brings soaring crime, murder
BY PAUL JOSEPH WATSON
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
 
Multicultural Malmo, Sweden is
the most dangerous city in western Europe according to newly released
figures, debunking mainstream media claims that Donald Trump is lying
when he focuses on the Scandinavian country as an example of the perils
of mass immigration.
Trump
was ridiculed by the media after referring to an “incident” in Sweden
that happened on Friday night. Trump later clarified his remarks,
insisting that he actually meant to refer to Sweden’s soaring violent
crime rate.
This led to an onslaught of propaganda claiming that mass immigration has had no negative impact on Sweden, including a Sky News
report that asserted, “Sweden’s crime rate has fallen since 2005,
despite the country taking in hundreds of thousands of immigrants from
war-torn countries such as Iraq and Syria.”
The facts suggest otherwise.
According to statistics analyzed by the Sydsvenskan newspaper,
Malmo has a “murder index” of 3.4 when homicides for one hundred
thousand inhabitants are taken into account, a “a very high figure”
according to the report.
This
compares to bigger but less dangerous cities in western Europe like
Paris (1.8), London (1.3), Copenhagen (1.1) and Berlin (1.0).
Having recorded 11 murders in 2016, Malmo is easily the most dangerous city in the entire Nordic region.
Mass riots, torching of vehicles and
sexual assaults have become routine in Malmo and other cities since
Sweden opened its doors to mass immigration. The influx of new migrants
as a result of the refugee crisis has only made the situation worse.
The situation in Sweden is so dire that even some Somali immigrants are considering returning home, saying that areas of some Swedish cities are more dangerous than their notorious homeland.
Malmo
is the perfect example of what happens when mass immigration is allowed
to swamp a city. Malmo is now known as “Sweden’s Chicago”.
43% of the population are from a foreign background, with the largest contingent of immigrants coming from Iraq.
Areas
of Malmo like Rosengard are 90% Muslim. Last year, Chief Superintendent
Torsten Elofsson retired after serving 42 years on the Malmo police
force.
“Malmo is infamous for
explosions. Yet thankfully nobody has been killed by the explosions yet –
some of them are just used to frighten people,” Elofsson told Breitbart.
“We had one case in Rosengard where a group were given a court order to
leave an apartment because they were a disturbance for the neighbours.
And then suddenly hand grenades and explosions outside the office of the
real estate company.”
Elofsson
said immigration has caused a crime surge in Malmo, with migrants
comprising the “majority” of people being arrested in the city. Police
are afraid to visit some “no-go” areas because their vehicles are
attacked.
One electricity maintenance company even announced that it could no longer serve customers in Malmo due to safety concerns over its employees.
Although Sweden’s de facto official
religion is political correctness, with hard crime stats being censored
by authorities for fear of causing offense, the situation is so dire
that people on the inside are finally beginning to speak out.
Earlier this month, veteran police officer Peter Springare blew the whistle on how almost all of the serious crimes in his city were being carried out by Muslims.
Springare
revealed that the crimes he is processing, which include rape, assault,
violence against police, drug trafficking and murder, were almost
exclusively committed by someone named “Mohammed” or a variation of that
name. The suspects were also invariably from Iraq, Turkey, Afghanistan,
Somalia, or Syria.
After his
Facebook post received media attention, Springare was hit with an
internal investigation on the grounds of “racial agitation”.
Springare’s warning was backed up
by Gothenburg police officer Tomas Åsenlöv, who revealed that cops were
being told to implement Code 291 rules to hide “all information about
the immigration-related crime.”
If
the establishment left really wants to hijack Trump’s gaffe about a
Swedish “incident” to start an argument about the wonderful impact mass
immigration has had on Sweden, it’s going to lose….badly.
 

QUEERING INDOCTRINATION BY BLURRING GENDER LINES FOR BOYS AND GIRLS: FIRST TRANSGENDER & BOY DOLLS COME TO MARKET

QUEERING INDOCTRINATION
BLURRING GENDER LINES FOR BOYS AND GIRLS: FIRST TRANSGENDER & BOY DOLLS COME TO MARKET
 “I’m always looking for an interesting twist on a doll,” says Robert Tonner, the CEO and founder of the Tonner Doll Company in Kingston, New York.
RADIO INTERVIEW WITH CREATOR OF DOLL:

 World’s First ‘Transgender’ Doll 
Unveiled at New York Toy Fair 
BY HEATHER CLARK
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
 NEW YORK — A doll made in the likeness of a reality 
television star who was born a boy but identifies as a girl was unveiled
 this weekend in New York.

The Tonner Doll Company, led by Robert Tonner, introduced the Jazz
Jennings doll at the International Toy Fair in Manhattan on Saturday.
“Jazz stands for everything I respect from a human nature point of
view: She’s incredibly brave, intelligent, warm-hearted and creative,”
he said in a statement.
As previously reported, Jennings is known for being the center of the
TLC reality show “I Am Jazz,” which follows the now 16-year old’s life
living as the opposite sex.

“Although born male, Jazz is a transgender female and has been living
as a girl since kindergarten,” the network describes the show on its
website. “Parents Jeanette and Greg have spent the years finding doctors
to treat their daughter, while fighting the discrimination and
misconceptions associated with what it means to be transgender.”
“Jazz is on a regimen of hormone therapy so that she can look and
develop like the other girls in her school. But, Jazz struggles with
comparing herself, and the lagging pace of her breast development to her
friends,” it outlines.
Tonner said that he first learned about Jennings in 2007 when the
then six-year-old was featured on “20/20” with Barbara Walters. Years
later, after he noted that Jennings was becoming a prominent voice on
“transgender” issues, he contacted the teen’s parents to advise that he
would like to create a doll in Jennings’ image.

“Especially with the nastiest coming up in this political climate, I
thought this is the perfect time for something like this,” Tonner told
Forbes.
He said that while he may not include the word “transgender” on the
doll box, his hope is that the figure initiates conversation.
“This is a great kid—an advocate, an entrepreneur, [and] one of
TIME’s most influential teenagers. I’m doing the doll of a very
accomplished kid,” Tonner stated. “I hope that it does get conversation
started.”
“My trainer says, ‘What makes this a transgender doll if she has no
parts?’” he outlined, speaking of a talk he had at the gym. “I said,
‘It’s about who it represents. It represents a person with an issue that
20 years ago, you couldn’t have done it. Now it’s opening up
conversations, and that’s what I like about it.”
Jennings says that he is happy with the doll.
“Ever since I was little, I always loved playing with dolls,” the
teen told the New York Times. “It was a great way to show my parents
that I was a girl, because I could just express myself as I am. So this
really resonates with me, because it was something so pivotal in my own
journey.”
But some have expressed concern that the doll is a furtherance of the progressive agenda.
“Sorry, but I’m so tired of this ‘politically correct’ [thinking],” one commenter wrote on the Tonner Doll Company page.
“God help us!” another exclaimed.
The doll will be tested in approximately 50 stores beginning in July, and will be sold for $89 and $99, depending on the outfit.

Blurring Gender Lines? Pastor Concerned After American Girl Introduces First Ever Male Doll 
BY GARRETT HALEY
SEE: http://christiannews.net/2017/02/20/blurring-gender-lines-american-girl-introduces-first-ever-male-doll-prompting-concerns/; 
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
 MIDDLETON, Wisc. – Hoping to offer a doll that 
will appeal to both girls and boys, American Girl has unveiled their 
first ever full-size male doll, which has lead to criticism from a North
 Carolina pastor who believes the move will blur gender lines and 
confuse young children about whether it is acceptable for boys to play 
with dolls like girls do.

For over 30 years, American Girl dolls, along with their accompanying
books and accessories, have been popular toys for children in the U.S.
The original dolls featured storylines and outfits of young girls from
different periods of American history, but since 1995 the company has
sold doll characters in various modern settings.
On Tuesday, in an effort to continue modernizing their line of dolls,
American Girl announced the creation of its first-ever full-sized male
character doll.
“A boy character has been a top request from our fans for decades,”
said American Girl spokeswoman Stephanie Spanos in a statement.

The doll, whose name is Logan Everett, is advertised on the American
Girl website as a bandmate and drummer to a female doll character named
Tenney.
“Meet Logan, Tenney’s bandmate and drummer!” the company’s online
description of the new doll states. “The 18” Logan doll has gray eyes
that open and close, and short brown hair. Logan’s unique hand
positioning helps him hold instruments! He arrives in a plaid
button-down shirt, a T-shirt, jeans, underwear and shoes.”
The company hopes the new male doll will be of interest not only to girls, but to boys as well.

“We’re hopeful Logan will appeal to both girls and boys,” Spanos
said. “For boys, we know Logan can speak directly to them and give them
something unique and special to call their own.”
However, the unveiling of the new Logan Everett doll has left one
pastor wondering why American Girl—whose mission is “celebrating girls
and all that they can be”—is now also marketing dolls to boys.
Keith Ogden, pastor of Hill Street Baptist Church in Asheville, North
Carolina, fears the new male doll will blur gender lines and confuse
impressionable children as to whether it is the norm for boys play with
dolls just like girls.
“This is nothing more than a trick of the enemy to emasculate little
boys and confuse their role to become men,” he said in a statement.

“There are those in this world who want to alter God’s creation of
the male and female,” Ogden continued. “The devil wants to kill, steal
and destroy the minds of our children and grandchildren by perverting,
distorting and twisting [the] truth of who God created them to be.”
He told the Asheville Citizen-Times that he believes the new American
Girl doll is a reflection of society’s gender confusion and lack of
morals.
“Now you are going to have little boys playing with baby dolls and
that’s not cool,” Ogden said. “We need to get back to our old values and
morals.”
He opined that churches need to be assisting youth during a time when
gender identity has become a national issue, including in regard to
youth activities. Ogden noted that the Boy Scouts of America recently
announced that it will allow girls who identify as boys to serve as Boy
Scouts.
“It just doesn’t make sense,” he remarked. “It’s not natural for a
boy to act like a girl. It’s not natural for a girl to want to be a boy.
… You’ve got the government and people who placate this mess instead of
telling little boys they can’t change their biology.”
The Young Women’s Christian Association of Asheville (YWCA), however, said that it sees no issue with the doll.

“At the YWCA, we encourage play that helps all children explore what
it means to be human and to accept each other’s differences,” CEO Beth
Maczka told the Citizen-Times. “We are happy to see dolls that celebrate
diversity and represent different races, abilities, body types and
genders.”

SAN FRANCISCO POLICE DEPARTMENT ENDS COOPERATION WITH FBI COUNTER-TERRORISM EFFORTS

SAN FRANCISCO POLICE DEPARTMENT 
ENDS COOPERATION WITH FBI 
COUNTER-TERRORISM EFFORTS
BY ROBERT SPENCER
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
 As Creeping Sharia memorably put it: “San Fran has essentially declared itself a 
sanctuary city for Muslim terrorists.”
 

“Rebel San Francisco P.D. Cuts Ties with FBI on Counterterrorism,” by AWR Hawkins, Breitbart, February 2, 2017 (thanks to Creeping Sharia):

The San Francisco Police Department (SFPD) is ending its
coorperation with FBI counterterrorism efforts as part of the city’s
larger rejection of President Donald Trump’s executive order on
immigration.

On January 31, Breitbart News reported
that San Francisco Police Chief William Scott, Sheriff Vicki Hennessy,
and Mayor Ed Lee sent a letter to the Department of Homeland Security
informing them that city would not comply with the order.

The SFPD is now cutting ties with the Joint Terrorism Task Force
(JTTF), because it would couple SFPD officers with federal agents in
carrying out the requirements of the immigration order.

According to the San Francisco Chronicle,
the JTTF was formed in 2007,  “when the police force entered into an
agreement with the FBI that authorized intelligence-gathering by San
Francisco officers of people engaged in First Amendment activities such
as religious services, protests and political assemblies.”

Opponent [sic] of Trump’s order — including the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), which has been declared a terrorist organization by the United Arab Emirates and was named by federal prosecutors as an unindicted co-conspirator in
a Hamas funding operation –sent a letter to the San Francisco officials
in January, asking them to adhere to “city and state rules” when
working with the federal government….

EGYPT: MUSLIMS SHOOT CHRISTIAN TEACHER IN THE HEAD AS ATTACKS ON CHRISTIANS ESCALATE

 
EGYPT: MUSLIMS SHOOT CHRISTIAN TEACHER IN THE HEAD AS ATTACKS ON CHRISTIANS ESCALATE
BY CHRISTINE WILLIAMS
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
 

The Economist reported
in December that “a massacre of Coptic Christians” in Egypt is
underway, and identified “disgruntled Islamists” who are out to revenge
Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi’s crackdown of the Muslim
Brotherhood. Coptic Christians strongly supported el-Sisi’s ouster of his MB predecessor, Mohammed Morsi.

Former Unit 777 (an Egyptian military counter-terrorism and special
operations unit) chief-of-staff Hatem Saber, who is also visiting
professor at the Egyptian Military Academy and an expert in
international terrorism movements, states that he considers “the Brotherhood the source of all current extremist militant groups” in Egypt.

Most Westerners are familiar with the stealth operations of the
Muslim Brotherhood, but the Brotherhood also can and does resort to
armed jihad depending on political climate.

Regrettably, the Brookings Institution boosts the Muslim Brotherhood. A Brookings Institution report declared
that  the MB “was left with no other option but to protest in a climate
characterized by exclusion and McCarthyism” after Egypt’s military coup
in 2013 that outlawed it and declared it a terrorist organization. The
very nature of the MB from its founding is conquest and supremacicm;
there is no way to appease it save to concede to its leadership, which
el-Sisi has demonstrated that he is unwilling to do. El-Sisi said:

Vicious terrorism is being waged against the country’s
Copts and Muslims. Egypt will emerge stronger and more united from this
situation.

The Brookings Institution,
which “bills itself as “the most influential, most quoted and most
trusted think tank in the world,” was bought off by the Qatari
government in 2013, when it received 14.8 million dollars, casting “a
dark cloud” over its “lofty claim to credibility.”

Meanwhile, President Trump affirmed support for Egypt’s fight against terror in a phone call with el-Sisi three days after Trump’s inauguration.

“Coptic Teacher Shot in the Head by Radical Islamists as Attacks on Christians in Egypt Escalate”, by Stoyan Zaimov, Christian Post, February 17, 2017:

A 50-year-old Coptic Christian teacher was shot in the
head by two Islamic militants in Egypt while on his way home from school
Thursday, as attacks on Christians continues to rise at an alarming
rate in the Muslim-majority country.

The Associated Press reported
that the killing of Gamal Tawfiq took place in the coastal city of
el-Arish when the teacher was attacked by two militants on a motorbike
on his way home from El-Samran School.

Tawfiq’s death was confirmed by a school official, but no further details of the crime have yet been provided.

It’s the second murder of a Christian in less than a week in the same
northern Sinai region, after suspected militants gunned down Bahgat
Zakher, a local vet, on Sunday. Wale Milad, a merchant and Coptic
Christian, was killed in late January after militants stormed his shop.

Copts make up only 10 percent of the nation’s 92 million population,
and have often been victims of Islamic militants who have vandalized
churches, Christian bookshops, orphanages, and other buildings.

As many as five Copts were murdered over
a two-week timespan in January, with persecution watchdog groups
criticizing the government for not doing enough to help protect
Christians from such attacks.

“My brother had no enemies; he was a very simple man, and peaceful,”
said a family member of one of the victims. “He left his wife and
children to work in Cairo to support them. His family will now face
difficulties as he was the primary bread-winner.

In December, Cairo’s largest Coptic cathedral was bombed by
Islamic State terror group supporters, killing 25 people, including
women and children, in what was one of the deadliest attack against
Christians in Egypt in years.

President Abdul Fattah al-Sisi declared a three-day period of
national mourning over the attack, insisting that the country stands
against such violence.

“Vicious terrorism is being waged against the country’s Copts and
Muslims. Egypt will emerge stronger and more united from this
situation,” al-Sisi said at the time.

International Christian Concern, which monitors attacks on Christian
communities worldwide, said that the bombing must serve as a “wakeup
call to the Egyptian government and the international community that the
Christian population in Egypt is in grave danger from religious
attacks.”

“Entire Christian communities have been assaulted by mobs of Muslim
radicals on four separate occasions in 2016 because there was a rumor
that a church was being constructed. Now, we have witnessed one of the
worst assaults on Egypt’s Christian community in years. More must be
done to protect Christians and their places of worship in Egypt,” said
William Stark, ICC’s regional manager….

ISLAMIC INDOCTRINATION IN SCHOOLS IS COMING OR HAS ALREADY COME~SOUTH CAROLINA SCHOOL BRAINWASHING INTO THE TENETS OF ISLAM FALSELY STATED

 Hugh Fitzgerald: Salat and Zakat in Summerville, South Carolina

SEE: https://www.jihadwatch.org/2017/02/hugh-fitzgerald-salat-and-zakat-in-summerville-south-carolina;

Recently, parents in Summerville, South Carolina became aware that
their sixth-grade children were being taught about Islam in school. Of
course, there’s nothing wrong with learning something of value about
Islam. It was what, and how, they were being taught that some found objectionable.
Part of what the students were required to do was, unsurprisingly,
fill-in-the-blank parroting of propaganda. To wit: “Islam is a religion
of (peace). If I believe in Islam, I am called a (Muslim). In the Islamic religion, we call God (Allah). I may dress differently than other kids. I feel (bad) that a few people of my religion committed terrorist acts. I (do not) believe in terrorists’ idea of a ‘holy war.’”

Then the children were dutifully taught to memorize the Five Pillars:
the Shahada, or recital of the Muslim profession of faith; Salat, the
ritual prayers said five times each day; Zakat, the alms given to help
the needy; Sawm, or the fasting during the month of Ramadan; and the
Hajj, the pilgrimage to Mecca that a Believer should try to make once in
his lifetime.

Those objecting to this were reported in the press as if they —
parents and non-parents alike — were merely Islamophobic know-nothings.
School officials pointed out that this teaching had been going on since
2011 without complaint, and they suavely assured reporters that most of
those now complaining about the curriculum in South Carolina were
“right-wing activists” from Texas and Oklahoma, and thus, as both
out-of-state people and as “right-wing activists,” they could not
possibly have a point. Who could be against teaching our children about
the Five Pillars of Islam?

Well, you could, and I could, for several reasons. The first is that
the children are not being fully informed even about the Five Pillars.
Take, for example, Salat, the five daily prayers. The children
do not learn, and it is most doubtful that their teachers themselves
know, what is contained in those prayers. As Robert Spencer repeatedly
has pointed out:

In the course of praying the requisite five prayers a
day, an observant Muslim will recite the Fatihah, the first surah of the
Qur’an and the most common prayer in Islam, seventeen times. The final
two verses of the Fatihah ask Allah: “Show us the straight path, the
path of those whom Thou hast favoured; not the (path) of those who earn
Thine anger nor of those who go astray.” The traditional Islamic
understanding of this is that the “straight path” is Islam — cf. Islamic
apologist John Esposito’s book Islam: The Straight Path. The path of those who have earned Allah’s anger are the Jews, and those who have gone astray are the Christians.

In other words, every dutiful Muslim, saying the five prayers every
day, is also cursing the kuffar seventeen times a day. Do you think
these sixth-graders learning about the duty of Salat have any idea? Do
you think they should be given that information? Or should they be
offered only a sanitized version of Salat? Of course, even if their
teachers knew what was contained in the Fatihah, and understood that it
is recited as part of those daily prayers – perhaps by having done a
little study on their own, outside the politically-correct Lesson Plan —
would they dare to tell their pupils? Wouldn’t they worry, and with
reason, that they might be reported on, and accused of bigotry by
someone – a school administrator, a representative of CAIR, the Southern
Poverty Law Center, the New York Times, the Washington Post — and
likely suffer consequences to their careers, perhaps even lose their
jobs, unless they cravenly apologized for this act of “Islamophobia” and
“racism”? The textual evidence they might adduce in their own defense –
the Fatihah itself — would be to no avail. For they would find, in the
present hysterical atmosphere (“We are all Muslims now”), that the truth
is no defense; you must say nothing ill about Islam.

And when these 12-year-olds are taught about another of the Five
Pillars, Zakat, they are told that it is duty, incumbent upon Muslims,
to “give alms to the needy.” Well, yes and no. Zakat is, it’s true, a
tax levied to benefit the poor and needy. This of course sounds good,
and not just to sixth-graders. What the children will not be told, and
what one suspects that their teachers do not know, is that Zakat is
meant to benefit only fellow Muslims. This is quite different
from the Christian conception of charity, made available to all. The
only non-Muslims to whom Zakat might, in rare instances, be given, are
those who show signs of wanting to convert, if the giving of that Zakat
encourages them to embrace Islam. And one other piquant detail: what
teacher would know that one of the purposes for which Zakat can be given
is not just to help the needy, but to support the mujahideen, the Jihad warriors of Islam? And if he knew, would he dare to tell his pupils?

So even if the Lesson Plan on Islam is already limited to the most
outwardly anodyne part of the faith, the Five Pillars, it is made more
anodyne still by leaving out the most disturbing aspects of Salat and
Zakat. And the most objectionable part of this parody of pedagogy is
that the children are not being taught anything of real significance
about the ideology of Islam. What do they learn about Jihad? What do
they learn about the status of non-Muslims as dhimmis under Muslim rule?
What do they find out about the Jizyah? What do they discover about the
hatred and hostility that Islam inculcates toward all non-Muslims? What
do they learn of how Islam purports to regulate every area of a
Believer’s life? Or of how Islam constricts the possibilities of freedom
of expression, freedom of speech, freedom of conscience? Of course,
none of this can be taught in our classrooms today, not to
sixth-graders, and not even to college students. This is now the third
rail of the American curriculum, at every level – truthful discussion of
what Islam is all about.

If you are a parent, and your child is being subjected to classes on
Islam similar to what the children in Summerville, South Carolina have
been subjected, what ought you to do? Make an appointment to discuss
your objections. It may be with the teacher, or school principal, or
members of the School Board. Keep your complaints simple and specific,
related only to the Five Pillars. Explain that of course you
have nothing against your child learning about them. But you do have a
problem with what has been left out. “What’s that?” the teacher, the
principal, the members of the School Board, will ask. Then, as calmly
and sweet-reasonably as you can, tell them about the sura that is
recited seventeen times a day by Muslims as part of their prayers, and
hand them a printed copy of the Fatihah so they can study it for
themselves. Read out the final two verses: “Guide us to the
straight path, the path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor, not
of those who have evoked [Your] anger or of those who are astray.” Make
sure to include on the same sheet summaries of, or excerpts from
Qur’anic commentators (stick to those who are Muslims themselves) that
explain why those who are the “people who have gone astray” is a
reference to Christians and why those who “have earned Allah’s anger are
the Jews.” Here is one such example:

Some of the commentators believe that / dallin / ‘those gone astray’ refers to the misguided of the Christians; and / maqdubi ‘alayhim / ‘those inflicted with His Wrath’ refers to the misguided of the Jews.

This idea was formed because of the particular responses that these
two groups showed in reply to the invitation to Islam. For, as the
Qur’an has clearly pointed out in different verses, the misguided Jews
used to show a special grudge and enmity against the invitation of
Islam, though, at the beginning, their scholars and learned men were the
bearers of the glad tidings of Islam.

Very soon, though, under the effect of deviation of thought, belief
and notion, and, also, because their financial gains were being
endangered, they became the most obstinate enemies of Islam and they did
whatever evil they could against the progression of lslam and Muslims.

(Even today, Zionism and Zionists hold the same position regarding the manner in which they treat Islam and Muslims.)

Therefore, to render these people as ‘those inflicted with His Wrath’ seems very correct.

But, the misguided of the Christians, who upon encountering with
Islam were not so grudging, but were misled because of their
misperception of the Divine religion and therefore refusing the Truth,
were rendered into / dallin / ‘ those gone astray’.

They believed in the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost instead of clinging to true Monotheism, the worship of Allah. This is, in itself, one of the greatest examples of ‘astray’ and ‘aberration’.

In the Islamic traditions, too, / maqdubi ‘alayhim / ‘ those
inflicted with His Wrath’ are interpreted as the Jews, and / dallin / ‘
those gone astray’ as the misguided of the Christians. The foundation of this interpretation is the same as was mentioned in the above.’

Bring with you a second sheet, on which you have printed the Zakat –
the “duty to help the poor and needy.” Under that, provide excerpts,
again from Muslim commentators, that state that zakat is ordinarily
meant to be given only to Muslims, or (rarely) to those who are on the
way to embracing Islam. And then, underneath, offer a few more excerpts
from Muslim commentators, explaining that Zakat is also meant to support
Jihad against the Infidels. Yusef al-Qaradawi, the favored cleric of
the Muslim Brotherhood with a vast following, could head the list with
his published remarks on zakat: “Today Muslim land is occupied in
Palestine, Kashmir, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Chad, Somalia, Cyprus, Samarkand,
Bukhara, Tashkent, Uzbekistan, Albania and several other occupied
countries. Declaring holy war to save these Muslim lands is an
Islamic duty, and fighting for such purposes in those occupied
territories is the Way of Allah for which zakat must be spent.

Then ask that teacher, that principal, those members of the School
Board, what they think should be made of this information? Anything?
Nothing? What do they think of the imprecations against the kuffars in
the Fatihah? Of the zakat that is meant for Muslims only, and that when
needed “must (also) be spent” to pay for fighting against the Infidels?
Of course, they won’t ever agree to include this information in the
sixth-grade lessons on Islam. It’s not the kind of thing they think the
children should be exposed to, and besides, it would spoil the whole
why-can’t-we-all-get-along purpose of the classroom undertaking. But
they will take home those pages on Salat and Zakat you’ve provided, look
into the matter on the Internet, as nowadays we all must, and discover
you were telling the disturbing truth. Perhaps the unease and doubt you
have provoked, throwing that spanner in their mental works, will lead
them to decide to pull the unit on Islam altogether. This is the most,
at this point, you can expect.

And these days, that counts as a victory.

 

THE DEEP DENIAL OF POPE FRANCIS: “MUSLIM TERRORISM DOES NOT EXIST”~MERKEL SHOWS SHE’S A PUPPET MOUTHPIECE OF THE POPE

 POPE FRANCIS: 

“MUSLIM TERRORISM DOES NOT EXIST” 
BY ROBERT SPENCER
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
 

“What he apparently meant is that not all Christians are terrorists
and not all Muslims are terrorists—a fact evident to all—yet his words
also seemed to suggest that no specifically Islamic form of terrorism
exists in the world, an assertion that stands in stark contradiction to
established fact.”
Indeed. Pope Francis is not only disastrously wrongheaded about an
obvious fact that is reinforced by every day’s headlines, but he is also
deceiving and misleading his people about a matter of utmost
importance, and keeping them ignorant and complacent about a growing and
advancing threat.
“Leave them; they are blind guides. And if a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit.” (Matthew 15:14)

“Pope Francis: ‘Muslim Terrorism Does Not Exist,’” by Thomas D. Williams, Breitbart, February 17, 2017:

In an impassioned address Friday, Pope Francis denied the
existence of Islamic terrorism, while simultaneously asserting that
“the ecological crisis is real.”
“Christian terrorism does not exist, Jewish terrorism does not exist,
and Muslim terrorism does not exist. They do not exist,” Francis said
in his speech to a world meeting of populist movements.
What he apparently meant is that not all Christians are terrorists
and not all Muslims are terrorists—a fact evident to all—yet his words
also seemed to suggest that no specifically Islamic form of terrorism
exists in the world, an assertion that stands in stark contradiction to
established fact.
“No people is criminal or drug-trafficking or violent,” Francis said,
while also suggesting—as he has on other occasions—that terrorism is
primarily a result of economic inequalities rather than religious
beliefs. “The poor and the poorer peoples are accused of violence yet,
without equal opportunities, the different forms of aggression and
conflict will find a fertile terrain for growth and will eventually
explode.”
The Pope also reiterated his conviction that all religions promote peace and that the danger of violent radicalization exists equally in all religions.

“There are fundamentalist and violent individuals in all peoples and
religions—and with intolerant generalizations they become stronger
because they feed on hate and xenophobia,” he said.
While denying the existence of Islamic terrorism, Francis also seemed
to condemn the denial of global warming, asserting that “the ecological
crisis is real.”
“A very solid scientific consensus indicates that we are presently
witnessing a disturbing warming of the climatic system,” he said.
We know “what happens when we deny science and disregard the voice of
Nature,” the Pope said. “Let us not fall into denial. Time is running
out. Let us act. I ask you again—all of you, people of all backgrounds
including native people, pastors, political leaders—to defend Creation.”
While acknowledging that science is not “the only form of knowledge,”
and that “science is not necessarily ‘neutral’” and often “conceals
ideological views or economic interests,” he still insisted that people
of good will should not oppose “scientific consensus” regarding global
warming.
Leftist media like the liberal Guardian
in the U.K. immediately politicized the speech, predictably claiming
that the Pope was backing “anti-Trump protests,” despite the fact that
the Pope himself denied such a claim, explicitly declaring that “I am
not speaking of anyone in particular.”
“I am not speaking of anyone in particular, I am speaking of a social
and political process that flourishes in many parts of the world and
poses a grave danger for humanity,” he said.
Moreover, although the Guardian claimed
that the Pope was “condemning populism,” in point of fact, he was
speaking to populist movements and praised their commitment to
democracy.
“The direction taken beyond this historic turning-point,” Francis
said, “will depend on people’s involvement and participation and,
largely, on yourselves, the popular movements.”
Nevertheless, the Vatican’s Secretary of State, Cardinal Pietro
Parolin, said Monday that the Holy See is concerned over growing
populist and nationalist movements, both in Europe and in the United
States.
In an interview for the Italian evening news
on the state-owned RAI network, the Cardinal was asked whether the
Vatican is worried about what the interviewer called “the spread of
nationalism and populism not only in Europe but also in the United
States with Donald Trump.”
“I think so, I think so,” Parolin said. “Certainly these closings are
not a good sign,” since many of them “are born of fear, which is not a
good counselor.”…

 A MIND THOROUGHLY BRAINWASHED BY EAST GERMANY’S COMMUNIST STASI ALIGNS WITH POPE
 
Merkel: Europe must take in more Muslim migrants, Islam “is not the cause of terrorism”
BY ROBERT SPENCER
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
 Everyone is so confident that that is the case, except, of course, the 
terrorists themselves, who are just as confident that their inspiration 
and impetus comes entirely from Islam. No one in the West seems 
particularly troubled by this cognitive dissonance.
 

“Angela Merkel says Europe must take MORE refugees and Islam ‘isn’t source of terror,’” by Jeremy Culley, Daily Star, February 18, 2017:

GERMAN Chancellor Angela Merkel has launched a staunch defense of her refugee policy.
The embattled leader says Europe has an obligation to take displaced people from Syria and Iraq.
She also said Islam “is not the cause of terrorism” and that combating extremism needs the cooperation of Muslim countries.
In a wide-ranging speech at a Munich security conference, the German
chief also vowed to work closely with Vladimir Putin’s Russia in the
fight with ISIS in the Middle East.
Mrs Merkel has come under fire for taking in up to one million
refugees amid security concerns and a string of migrant sex attacks
across Germany.
After the Berlin lorry attack at a Christmas market in December,
ex-UKIP leader Nigel Farage said events such as that will be “Merkel’s
legacy”.
Mrs Merkel had been a strong critic of Brexit, saying she had “deep regrets” about it….

 Trump sales skyrocket online after 
Nordstrom’s empties shelves
BY KIT DANIELS

Ivanka Trump’s clothing line is rocketing to the top of
Amazon sales charts, negating the effect of Nordstrom’s and other
retailers pulling her products from store shelves.
The Ivanka Trump Eau de Parfum Spray For Women is the #1 fragrance for women:

The Ivanka Trump Women’s Kayden4 Dress Pump reached #3 in women’s pumps:

And the Ivanka Trump Women’s Tummy Control Midi Skirt is #5 in women’s Wear to Work clothing:

Overall,
Ivanka Trump products typically dominate the top 20 of their
appropriate categories on Amazon, which highlights the lack of influence
brick-and-mortar stores wield in the political arena.
On Friday, Burlington announced it was yanking all of Ivanka’s products it sells on-line.

The retailer did not publicly comment on the matter, and it’s likely,
although unconfirmed, that Burlington was phasing out Trump products at
its physical stores.
Earlier in the month Nordstrom’s announced
it was severing ties with Ivanka Trump due to “poor sales,” but an
industry expert said that was likely a complete lie to cover up the
political agenda behind the move.
“This is a classic example of a
retailer making a decision based on their fear of standing up to
political pressure – even on a limited scale,” the expert told Breitbart
on the condition of anonymity.  “It was clear from their actions since
last fall that Nordstrom would prefer to sell out to loud liberal groups
who weren’t even regular Nordstrom consumers, just to avoid
controversy.”
“…Insiders know how stores can easily play games
with placement of merchandise and other ways to lower numbers, and its
very possible Nordstrom’s did that here to cover themselves.”
An internal memo given to Nordstrom’s employees suggests that was the case:
Last
Friday an executive order was signed by the President of the United
States related to immigration. This subject is one we’re watching
closely — our family’s heritage, the company’s roots, and the diverse
employees and customers we serve are top of mind. When John W. Nordstrom
came to the U.S. as an immigrant, he was given opportunities that
allowed him to find a more prosperous and happy life. In so many ways,
our humble beginnings and the work ethic and gratitude that goes with it
helped shape the culture of our company to this day.
Similarly, Sears and K-Mart also dropped Trump-related products from their online stores.

NEW TECH ALLOWS PARENTS TO SEE THEIR UNBORN BABIES IN CRYSTAL CLEAR VIDEO

 
 The new scanning technique shows the baby at 20 weeks in incredible detail.
NEW TECH ALLOWS PARENTS TO SEE THEIR 
UNBORN BABIES IN CRYSTAL CLEAR VIDEO
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
 

Expectant parents can now see their child in the womb in incredible detail thanks to a technological breakthrough.

While ultrasound has been commonplace in maternity clinics since the
1980s, a new MRI scan captures footage of the unborn child in clear,
high-quality imaging.

The technique has come to the public’s attention after a 24 second
video of a 20 week old unborn baby seen kicking, swallowing and pulling
on the umbilical cord, went viral.

Early treatment

According to The Telegraph, the new £10 million technique could lead
to complications being spotted earlier, and potentially treated before
the baby is born.

Previously, if a baby was highly active during a scan, the images
would be unusable. The new imaging uses computer algorithms to
compensate for small foetal movements.

This means that clear imaging can be created, without the mother returning for another scan.

The team behind the new technology, iFIND, hope that it will soon be rolled out to maternity clinics across the world.

Sanctity of life

The video, which shows the fully-formed the baby in such detail, is
likely to reignite debate about lowering the current abortion limit of
24 weeks.

Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt has previously supported cutting the limit to 12 weeks.

In 2012, he said that everyone has their view on when human life
begins and that in his own opinion, “12 weeks is the right point for
it”.

He added that in 2008 he voted for the abortion limit to be halved from 24 to 12 weeks.

SHIRLEY EDWARDS: ANGER AND KINDNESS
CAN KILL
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
 
By Shirley Edwards


February 18, 2017
NewsWithViews.com
[These
are my views as a woman living in England, on how the culture and
spirit of my country has changed over 50 years. Why the country does
not feel protected or strong any more, how it has lost, and is losing
it values and decency, and how we are daily losing our free speech.]
“Those
who cry the loudest are not always the ones who are hurt the most”
– Aesop
Just
for once, I didn’t have to be personally present to witness
or understand the anger at the Women’s anti-Trump march recently
held in London. I have suffered with frustration and anger, I have
seen the damage it can cause, and I also recognise it in others. It
is an ugly spirit. It is usually loud, indignant and demanding; sometimes
it hides behind a quiet demeanour, victim hood, tears, or a painted
smile. There is a lot of it about.
However,
with barely one foot through the front door of The White House, it
still came as a bit of a surprise that an exaggerated 100,000 angry
women’s voices would be on him like a ton of bricks from this
side of the Atlantic, and that the event would be heavily covered
through all of our mainstream media. The new president of the United
States, is suddenly not only responsible for offending the minority
of voters in the USA, and creating world division; but he is now apparently
responsible for every woman’s anguish here in the UK and across
the world as well. I hope he has broad shoulders.
Jumping
on the bandwagon of what some call group solidarity for all those
people who think they are marginalized or feel deeply offended by
laws being implemented on the other side of the Atlantic; there were
plenty of others across the nation, from the comfort of their own
home, who were being empowered by joining in with the criticism, the
hatred, and the disbelief directed towards the new president of the
United States who they consider to be against women and also very
racist towards immigrants. I heard it in the workplace, in shops,
at friend’s homes, and witnessed the sudden outage of indignation
verbalizing itself at every conceivable moment. It was quite astonishing
to hear that once more, especially after the Brexit result, and to
see it displayed amidst the quiet acceptance and respect that many
others felt towards the majority of voters in the USA.
Yet
my observations came not only from watching the display of female
anguish marching through the streets of London, believing they spoke
for the nation, but from asking why this very large group of protestors,
if they were concerned about women, were not directing their energy
against the real perpetrators of abuse in our society today? There
are plenty of them about. What has Donald Trump had to do with it?
Sometimes,
it’s not those women who cry loudest who are the ones who are
most hurt…….They are usually the ones who are most wrong.
Was
Donald Trump acting as a catalyst for something else; an unhealed
anguish deeply forgotten and buried? Why haven’t we witnessed
such hatred for male leaders; home and abroad before?
Why
did this anger turn itself against one man, without looking at its
own guilt, and the wrong compromises it has already made with evil
within its own home?
Silent
Witness – The Missing Women
If
demonstrators were upset about the unfair way that women are treated,
I wondered why they were not around when just one British woman bought
out a private prosecution against 2 male doctors who were discovered
carrying out abortions on unborn baby girls in the UK, based purely
on their gender. With an estimated 100,000,000 missing women based
solely on the practice of gendercide across the world, it should surely
be something worth speaking out against.
What
a wonderful platform some of those speakers in that demonstration
could have had to highlight that abuse in our own country. [Link]
Silent
Witness – The Invisible Mother
I
wondered if 100,000 demonstrators will march or speak out on the removal
of the name ‘mothers’ which is now being called for by
the BMA, (The British Medical Association), who have issued official
internal guidelines to all of its members to implement and refer to
a new mother as a ‘pregnant person’, thus removing the
unique gift, joy and privilege of being called a mother; in order
to not offend others.
The
guidelines also promote the new title of Mx which can be used instead
of Miss, Ms, Mrs or Mr. It will not be a Happy Mx Day when that suggestion
finally takes a hold.
The
road to genderless, non descript, non identifiable ‘nobodies’
is upon us. Will we question or blindly comply with these instructions?
You
can read A
Guide to Effective Communication, Inclusive Language in the Workplace
issued by The British Medical Association.
Silent
Witness – The Invisible Child
I
wondered why 100,000 demonstrators have not vocally objected in the
streets to the sexualizing of children through the promotion of soft
porn through music videos, where a little girls ambition in life has
now become demoted to using the power of her assets to become a sex
symbol like Rhianna, Beyonce or Britney and little boy’s are
trained early to see girls as pure objects for their desire?
Passing
their antics off as powerful and liberating is an insult to women,
but more alarmingly it is feeding a more sinister and abusive agenda
to make sex and provocative behaviour in children, especially little
girls, much more acceptable.
It
was interesting to see some of the more provocative female celebrities
being the ones to shout the loudest in some of the organized marches
across the world.
Silent
Witness – Human Chattel
However,
most of all I have wondered why those 100,000 demonstrators have not
focused their energy into something which would be helpful and expose
the evil of human trafficking in the UK, the rising number of rapes
across Europe, child slavery, child brides, forced marriage, honour
based violence, and FGM, (female genital mutilation) which is highlighted
as a cultural problem and where it is estimated that the number of
girls and women who have undergone FGM in the UK is estimated to vary
from anything from 66,000 to 280,000 with between 7,000 to 24,000
girls under 17 years of age at risk?
The
slogan currently being used to highlight FGM is No Voice – No
Choice.
As
the Women’s anti-Trump movement in the UK now takes a stance
against his restrictions on immigration and travel to the USA, with
demonstrations up and down the country in many of the major cities,
I refer to two of the many signs that I have witnessed in these rallies
which reads:
‘Kindness
is Everything’
‘Your cannot unify with Hate’
Promoting
humanism in a country which is already divided, not through the efforts
of Donald Trump, but by another system which has purposefully overcrowded
one culture with another culture, people are already aware that their
kindness has been mis-used.
Apart
from genuine immigrants and refugees who have integrated over many
years into the UK, who are friends to the UK, and consider themselves
British; unfortunately there are many legal and illegal immigrants
who are not so friendly now living within our society.
Many
places in Europe have fallen backwards and become unrecognisable;
there are many places where people, especially women, are very afraid
to visit. There is no kindness or unity there.
An
area known as Tower Hamlets is known to be one of the most dangerous
places for women and girls in the east end of London.
Tower
Hamlets is also known as one of the ‘no-go’ areas which
are reportedly existing throughout the United Kingdom where people
do not feel safe or protected anymore.
In
an article by Soeren Khan from the Gatestone Institute in relation
to European ‘no-go’ zones, fact or fiction; here are some
of the comments from people who speak out against some of the areas
which now populate the British Isles.
The
article also speaks about how many people are desperately leaving
some areas in which they feel that the British law, culture and values
are being dominantly displaced by cultures which want to police themselves
and others, rather than follow the law of the land. [Link]
•
“There are some communities born under other skies who will
not involve the police at all… there are communities from other
cultures who would prefer to police themselves.” — Sir
Tom Winsor, chief inspector of the police forces in England and Wales.
• “We are sleepwalking our way to segregation.
We are becoming strangers to each other and leaving communities to
be marooned outside the mainstream.” — Trevor Phillips,
former chairman of the Commission for Racial Equality.
• “One of the results of [multiculturalism]
has been to further alienate the young from the nation in which they
were growing up and also to turn already separate communities into
‘no-go’ areas where adherence to this ideology [of Islamic extremism]
has become a mark of acceptability.” Michael Nazir-Ali, former
Bishop of Rochester.
• “There are things that I see when I’m
driving around Birmingham that shouldn’t be happening. I only drive
into these areas, never actually walk into these areas, I just wouldn’t.
Just in case I did do something that…because of their culture or
their religion it was a threat or it was an insult or something.”
— Resident of Birmingham.
Who
will fill the Void?
The
protestors in the Women’s anti-Trump march I fear are being
used in varying ways. An out-of-control reaction, an anger, by the
protesters is creating an irrational and biased attack upon a president
who may be initially daring to prioritize the safety of his own fellow
citizens first, and it is also acting as a distraction against some
of the real issues that we should all be talking about and not be
shouted down upon in our own country. It is not racist to highlight
such problems.
The
real anguish which some women feel is that they do not feel safe,
or protected in society. They feel badly let down by men, even the
good ones. It was all very well to march in large numbers through
a relatively safe street in London. It is not so nice to walk alone
in places of society where no one cares for you.
 When
we no longer identify or respect the specific and special roles that
each of the sexes possess, society becomes demoralized so low that
it loses all respect for itself and each other, and becomes very weak.
It does not recognise genuine strength, love or grace.
You
can sense and see the growing weakness and lack of character and identity
all around. Who is it that is orchestrating the demise of mankind
and why do we have to be considered unkind to object to it?
Will
men and women unite together and value their role in society, protect
their children and stand up to evil in a rational way without falling
prey to the political correctness and humanism which is destroying
people?
Out
of control anger, like over the top kindness, can kill people. The
women’s anti-trump demonstration was a weak attempt at the countries
collective failure to show true strength and kindness in the correct
proportion when it should have done a long long time ago. Leaders
have let us down.
Is
it to late to turn back to a dignity now lost….?

My
Response to Pastor Chuck Baldwin [Link]
I have
had the good fortune to see my articles in NewsWithViews.com over the
years. I say this because being one of the “deplorables” in
America today limits our access to many journalistic opportunities, and
yet like many of the faithful of publisher Paul Walter, we wouldn’t have
it any other way.
As such,
many of you who’ve been following Pastor Chuck Baldwin’s philosophical
meanderings through the years might have caught a slight dissonance in
his recent column, “Is Netanyahu Finished”, as if something
was out of sync.


I am
using this opportunity to rebut his points, one by one. I look forward
to your heartfelt responses to my article. Let me say from the outset:
this is a no-holds-barred rebuttal to his opining of Netanyahu, Israel,
Jews, and Christians. We all know that if you want to get people riled
up, just talk about Israel, Jews, and Christian attitudes to the above
and you’ll open the Pandora’s Box.
PB (Pastor
Baldwin): “Bibi is one of the most corrupt political leaders on the
planet”
RS (Rabbi
Shifren): Perhaps it is so, but being in the middle east, surrounded by
those who want your demise, is not an easy situation for any leader. Here
is a country where literally nothing is normal (I may seem to be leaning
here toward Pastor Baldwin, but for different reasons). Fully 50% doesn’t
want to, or rebels at, anything resembling traditional Judaism. You have
an active, aggressive Gay/Lesbian population eating away at the thousands
of years of Biblical prophecy and Divine intervention. And you also have
open communists with an axe to grind in the spirit of Marx, Trotsky, and
Alinsky.
Then
there are Hellenists, who if they had no Israeli passport, would resemble
anybody windsurfing at Waikiki or eating sushi in Beverly Hills, and Yeshiva
students who never see the light of the sun, squinting at obtuse tractates
of Talmudic law under the cover of dimly lit florescent bulbs. Last but
not least, there is an active, healthy underground fueled by pimps, prostitutes,
and a mafia which would make Meir Lansky blush. So yes, Pastor Baldwin
is right about the insanity of Israel….but to be its LEADER, well now,
that takes an acute level of ability that the Democratic Party of Waters,
Ellison, and Pelosi could hardly dream of.
And
he’s right: Bibi is the darling of many Christian groups who want their
own fantasy relationship with the people of the Book, the progeny of the
Holocaust. What many don’t realize is that Bibi was for many years ensconced
in Manhattan during his position in the UN, gleaning from the rich and
powerful, all eager to get in his good graces, being close to a real Israeli
war hero, regardless of issues of character or philosophy.
Bibi
cleverly marshalled his well-honed English fluency, good looks and Machiavellian
political moxie to ingratiate himself into the “salon” milieu,
managing to be everything to everybody seeking to find an excuse for being
pro-Jew/Israeli. Bibi is so well spoken that when you hear him, you believe
every word he says.
Pastor
Baldwin doesn’t illuminate why Bibi is going down, and I tend to think
that even hardened Israelis have occasionally had it with his hegemony.
But the good pastor doesn’t get: many Israeli politicos are corrupt. It
is endemic, just as the 25% of the underground economy who is fleeing
the tax man.
How
legitimate could one be to sit in a coalition with Palestinian Arabs enumerating
their hatred for the Jewish state from the dais of the Knesset (parliament),
encouraging and abetting intifadas and blood-letting. Really, this is
one aspect that the media has left unturned: the special ability to reconcile
with a perpetual terrorist sword drawn against its very survival, giving
the pretense that this is true “democracy.” So yes, nobody
normal, least of all the coalition factions of orthodox rabbis whiling
away the tedious speeches of the Arabs, the Israeli Left, and otherwise
crass corrupt philistines, could imagine the horror of governing such
a witch’s brew. Truly, Bibi has his hands full just keeping Israel alive
and safe.
PB:
“He is pressuring Donald Trump to ratchet up a war against Iran”
to give cover and deflect from his misdeeds…
RS:
Here the good pastor shows a complete lack of understanding of the Israeli
mind-set. Note well: Israel doesn’t need America, and is fully capable
of neutralizing the Iranian threat. Nonetheless, a joint coalition would
certainly be favorable and elevate the raison de guerre of Israel in her
continuous war to find favor in the eyes of the Gentiles. Yet when the
boom is ultimately lowered, Israel will stand alone, just as it did at
Entebbe and the Iraqi nuclear facility. They know it, American insiders
know it–everyone but Pastor Baldwin knows it.
PB:
“There is one common denominator that links the mainstream media
with the so-called conservative media: infatuation with the modern state
of Israel” (wonder what he means here by “modern”…would
these pundits have preferred the Israel of King David? I rather doubt
it…)
RS:
I detest knee-jerk thinkers and groups, Jewish or Gentile. I abhor “Black
Lives Matter” because I know who these punks are. In the same way,
I detest playing the Holocaust card. It’s so easy to do, and who wants
to be labeled in the same Jew-baiting ranks with Goebbels, Streicher,
Eichmann….the entire Jewish leadership plays this card to a tee. Pathetic
and stifling of any discussion. Pat Buchanan and Mel Gibson will tell
you volumes about going against the Israeli/Jewish bulwark.
PB:
“He is mobilizing accelerated (illegal) settlements on private land
owned by Palestinians”
RS:
Is this man a pastor, a man of god? What religion is he representing?
This is perhaps his most puzzling statement to date. Does Pastor Baldwin
believe in God? Which God? Because if it’s the God of the Old Testament,
and the God of Heaven and Earth, then there is only ONE God…and that
same God stated: “The Land of Israel will be an eternal inheritance
to your seed”. “Those that bless you will be blessed, those
that curse you will be cursed.” Genesis 12:1-3.
The
problem the pastor has is that his rhetoric and ideology have trumped
his divine calling. I know of not ONE Christian (who truly is a Christian,
devoid of anti-Semitic leanings), who does not stand behind this doctrine
and other pronouncements in Exodus, giving the Land of Kanaan (Israel)
exclusively to the seed of Abraham (see appropriate passages regarding
the banishing of Ishmael and his claims).
Therefore,
his mention of Palestinian “rights” is curious, suspiciously
incongruent with the foundation of Christian theology. Yet, it is difficult
to stand up to the nay-sayers in today’s Christian church. Many a man
of integrity and knowledge of scripture has given in to the leftists and
Palestinian inciters’ relentless assault against traditional belief (It
was none other than Arafat that confided that the “Palestinian”
cause was bogus, used only as a means to weaken and destroy Israel).
Of course,
there have always been malevolent purveyors of Jew-baiting in the history
of Christianity. Yet, when candid, these erudite haters will quote you
chapter and verse about the exclusivity of the Abrahamic covenant with
God, having zero mention of “Palestinian rights.” So, what
then must we conclude from Pastor Baldwin’s strange rhetoric? It doesn’t
have to be complicated: somewhere, somehow, a Jew stood before him and
obstructed his pathway. This is not unique.
PB:
“Neither does it hurt that Trump’s son-in-law is a MAJOR financial
backer of the (illegal) settlements”
RS:
As Reagan would say, “There you go again!” But hey, somebody
needs to come up with the green to finance that which the Israeli government
has been doing: putting facts on the ground that will never be erased.
If God is real (is he, really good Pastor?), and the scriptures are not
fake, then this land is part of the biblical Land of Israel, whether we
(our congregations/clerics) approve of it, or not. God gave it to Israel,
and a lot more than they have today belonged only to them.
PB:
“Billionaire Sheldon Adelson is starting to back away from Bibi”
RS:
Here’s a man who understands when he’s throwing good money after bad….
PB:
“Many Christians have accused me of heresy” for what I said
about Bibi
RS:
I won’t. You have accurately described Bibi…it’s just that you haven’t
seen the big picture. Or that you just have lost your ability to withstand
pressure from apostates within your church, or otherwise leftist/anti-Semitic
agitators who you might have been courting or perhaps you are the leader
in this courting since in one article you stated that the Jews of Israel
are not the Jews of the Bible. Well then, PB, who are they? Because many
can trace their ancestry back to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
PB:
“For many professing Christians, the modern state of Israel is every
bit as important as Jesus Christ himself and their own personal salvation.
RS:
This is probably your only righteous statement. The State of Israel is
every bit as important as Jesus Christ because Israel is the Wife of God,
and the Church states they are the Bride of Christ. The Abrahamic Covenant
is unconditional and includes the land, and God does not lie, and neither
does he go back on his promises.
[Editor’s
Note: See Bibi Netanyahu and President Trump at a press meeting in DC
on 2-15-17]
PB:
“Netanyahu is not only a crook, a globalist, and murderer, he is
also a Talmudist”
RS:
A murderer, really? I wasn’t aware, whom did he murder? Your argument
has no feet. Not once in your invective have you called to task the unrelenting
war of Arab terror against Jews. You’ve saved your arrows for those evil
“Talmudists” like Bibi, who actually teaches a Bible class every
week.
But
how hysterical are you? Bibi a Talmudist? Even Woody Allen would laugh
you off your lectern… Bibi is a politician and puts on a yarmulke when
he goes to a Concentration Camp, or a funeral. Do you know his heart?
You cannot claim you do.
PB:
“If you think the Koran is bad, try reading the Talmud.”
RS:
Yes, you’ve finally come to your senses: the Koran is definitely bad!
Regarding the Talmud, what about that ever-problematic passage about “an
eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth?” Do you know what that means?
Of course not, you know nothing of the Talmud except to cherry-pick problematic
statements of which you have no clue. Actually, the passage in question
refers to monetary damages due to the aggrieved, and not in removing the
plaintiff’s eye. So, there you have it, now you can certainly rest.
The remainder is a life’s work and toil about what was given over on Sinai,
and what was transmitted orally, known as the Oral Law (as opposed to
the Bible, or Written Law). Few have the time, patience, and determination
to dive into the minutia and profound manner of the arguments given forth…you
least of all.
 PB:
“Iran is being painted as the next big, bad wolf”
RS:
For such a smart guy, how could you be so wrong?! The problem you’re facing?
You’ve never lived in Iran as a Christian, or anywhere else as a Christian
in the Middle East….good luck. Yes, not one American boy should be sacrificed
to shut these maniacs down. So, when Israeli jets take off one night during
Ramadan, remember I told you so….
PB:
“Sanctions against Iran are a violation of the 2015 treaty”
RS:
Are you kidding me?! A treaty with Iran, you say? Pastor, this is delusional.
Find someone in your congregation that can teach you about Iran….let
me elucidate for you a cardinal principle: the Saudis hate Iran, so they’re
going to be good news for us. Period. The way of the world.

OBAMACARE REPLACEMENT PLAN INTRODUCED IN CONGRESS

OBAMACARE REPLACEMENT PLAN INTRODUCED 
IN CONGRESS
BY BOB ADELMANN
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
 

Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky.) and Representative Mark Sanford (R-S.C.) introduced
their ObamaCare Replacement Act (ORA) on Wednesday. It would
simultaneously repeal nearly all of ObamaCare’s most onerous demands and
mandates while opening up the health-insurance market to individuals to
purchase, or not to purchase, coverage. The bill, S.222, might more
appropriately be named the “Health Insurance Freedom to Purchase Act,”
putting the decision to buy, or not to buy, coverage back in the hands
of individual citizens and taking it out of the hands of the federal
government.

Senator Paul said, “This is a big, big day for conservative
Republicans. We owe this to the conservatives around the country who
elected us to repeal, to completely repeal, ObamaCare. But I think if
you’re going to repeal something, you should replace it.”

Whether that is so is open to debate. Some would say it would be
better just to repeal ObamaCare and let the free market sort things out
afterwards. Nevertheless, the ORA puts the decision to purchase health
insurance coverage back in the hands of the people paying for it,
allowing them the freedom not to purchase coverage if they don’t want
to. The ObamaCare mandate requiring people to either purchase health
insurance or pay a penalty would disappear. It would allow those
citizens choosing to buy health coverage to choose whatever plan they
want. Insurance companies will be allowed to offer coverages across
state lines, and expand their offerings without federal interference or
demands that certain expenses be covered even when unwarranted or
unnecessary.

Rather than punishing those who decided under ObamaCare not to buy
coverage with IRS penalties, ORA offers incentives instead. Individuals
may set up their own Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) to pay for future
medical and health expenses. Any amounts may be added to those accounts,
and those funds may be invested without incurring taxes on any
earnings. And a tax credit of up to $5,000 per person putting away funds
into an HSA is allowed. Those without insurance through their employer
but wanting to buy coverage will be able to join voluntary associations
for the sole purpose of buying insurance, taking advantage of better
coverage at lower rates.

Funds invested in HSAs may be used to buy health insurance, pay for
prescriptions and over-the-counter drugs along with dietary supplements,
and pay for physical exercise regimens offered by personal trainers and
workout centers and facilities. And, of course, those funds may be used
to cover any deductibles in the coverages they decide to purchase. HSA
funds may also be used by those already covered under the VA, Medicare,
Tricare, IHS (Indian Health Service), or healthcare sharing ministries.

In other words, HSAs under the new law will be tax-deferred savings
accounts, with tax credits added in as a bonus to encourage people to
set them up.

Included in the ORA are provisions allowing states more freedom to
modify Medicaid coverages without federal government interference. And
it provides a two-year “window” open-enrollment period under which
individuals with pre-existing conditions can purchase coverage.

The ORA is a “consensus” bill combining the elements of at least four
plans being offered to replace ObamaCare. While there are still some
issues to be ironed out, especially regarding Medicaid and the size of
the tax credit, the bill in final form could arrive on President Trump’s
desk by the end of March.

The ORA is also a political move by the House Freedom Caucus, which
supports it unanimously. The 40-member caucus is using this as a lever
to move ObamaCare’s repeal along more rapidly. That caucus voted on
Monday night to repeal the bill passed by both houses in 2015 undoing
ObamaCare, putting in its place the ORA.

If it becomes law, the ORA will put responsibility for one’s health
care back where it belongs: the taxpayers who are making the decisions
on how they want to spend the money they earn. That freedom, under the
ORA, would include the freedom not to buy health insurance if one
decides not to. That is the paradigm shift toward freedom and away from
government mandates contained in the bill offered by Senator Paul and
Representative Sanford.
