BBC's Saudi raised muslim sharia presenter Mishal Husain doesn't fast during Ramadan but rather drinks some alcohol. “The emphasis on what you wear on your head or how many times you pray, on the outward things rather than what’s in your heart and the way you treat people, I find slightly misguided,” she says. Only when she arrived at Cambridge University in 1992 did she come across people who called themselves British muslims: “Before that people generally said British Asian or ‘of Pakistani heritage’. Then I became aware that islam was the defining bit. Mishal Husain says she doesn't feel any threat against her way of life. However, Klevius says this is because of Human Rights - not sharia islam. The situation for muslim girls/women in muslim countries and sharia ghettos in the West is completely different. And despite her way of life she still ticks the "muslim" box in BBC's "diversity" policy. Who mentioned 'bigotry', 'hypocrisy' etc.?

Ivemalm a Swedish woman writing today in Aftonbladet (translated by
Klevius from Swedish to the weird Old Nordic dialect now called
English):
I know how it feels to be wrestled down
with two hands around one's neck, how it feels to be locked out on the
balcony in the middle of the night in cold winter, and how it feels to
hear "suck me off first, otherwise your pals won't be let in here", said
by a person who says he loves you.
I know all of this but still don't hate men. On the contrary, I have a
father, a husband and sons whom I love more than anything else. I don't
feel myself oppressed in my daily life.
What frightens me are all those women who don't see the problems of today's norms.
Consensual sex - or extortion?
Here's what Harvey Weinstein has been accused of, based on recent reports.
Thursday, October 5
An
Oct. 5 expose from The New York Times detailed Weinstein's alleged
misconduct -- and said that the Hollywood titan has made eight
settlements with women.
“Scream” actress Rose McGowan
was paid a $100,000 settlement from Weinstein in 1997 following a hotel
room incident, The Times reported. The settlement wasn't an admission of
guilt, the paper described a legal document as saying.
The
Times report also detailed how Weinstein, while in a bathrobe in his
hotel room, had asked if he could give actress Ashley Judd a massage or
if the star could watch him take a shower.
"How do I
get out of the room as fast as possible without alienating Harvey
Weinstein?" Judd told the newspaper she recalled thinking.
Former
employees told The Times that an unnamed Miramax employee left the
company not long after an alleged incident involving the producer. The
employees said that the woman received a settlement.
In
1998, Zelda Perkins, a former production assistant with Miramax,
allegedly confronted Weinstein, and told him to stop his “inappropriate
requests or comments in hotel rooms,” The New York Times reported.
Perkins,
now working as a theater producer in London, was reportedly concerned
for other women working in the office, and threatened Weinstein’s
behavior with legal action, according to former coworkers.

conduct, the company's board of directors announced Sunday, Oct. 8,

The Times reported that Miramax
negotiated a settlement with Perkins and her lawyer, and Perkins
declined to discuss what happened with the newspaper.
Emily
Nestor, a temporary employee of Weinstein’s, said he’d made sexual
advances to her as well, promising he’d help with her career, according
to the report.
Additionally, The Times reported an
incident with Weinstein and an unnamed assistant, who he reportedly
tried to convince to give him a massage while he stood naked in front of
her at a hotel, which left her “crying and very distraught,” according
to a memo by Lauren O’Connor.
In O’Connor’s 2015 memo,
in which she penned several accounts of women in the company and the
atmosphere Weinstein’s advances created, she recalled how Weinstein
would ask her to meet with aspiring actresses after they’d have meetings
with him in his hotel room.
She wrote how she felt
that she was being used to build relationships with “vulnerable women
who hope he will get them work.” O'Connor reportedly settled with
Weinstein.
Laura Madden detailed to The Times how
Weinstein had asked her more than once for massages at hotels and how he
would constantly make her re-evaluate herself after rejecting him.
“It was so manipulative,” Madden said. “You constantly question yourself – am I the one who is the problem?”
Ambra
Battilana Gutierrez, an Italian model and actress, met with Weinstein
at his office in New York’s SoHo neighborhood in 2015, The Times
reported. But Gutierrez reportedly called the police hours later saying
Weinstein had grabbed her breasts, while asking if they were real, and
put his hand up her skirt.
Charges were ultimately not
filed against Weinstein, and he and Gutierrez reportedly agreed to a
settlement, according to anonymous sources who spoke with The Times.
Overall,
eight women detailed their alleged inappropriate interactions with
Weinstein to The New York Times. The report alleges that various
employees were asked to perform "turndown duty" for Weinstein, which
included getting him ready for bed at night and also waking him up in
the morning.
“I appreciate the way I’ve behaved with
colleagues in the past has caused a lot of pain, and I sincerely
apologize for it," Weinstein told The Times in a statement. "Though I’m
trying to do better, I know I have a long way to go."
Rebecca
Traister, a reporter for The Cut, discussed in an essay about how she
encountered Weinstein while covering one of his book parties in early
2000. She claimed he screamed at her for a question she asked, calling
her an obscene name.

When
her boyfriend and colleague intervened and tried to get Weinstein to
apologize to her, she said “Weinstein went nuclear.” He reportedly
pushed her boyfriend down a set of stairs and dragged him out to the
street in a headlock.
Traister said the altercation was
later described as “a case of an aggressive reporter barging into a
party she wasn’t invited to and asking impertinent questions.”

Fox
11’s Lauren Sivan detailed an alleged 2007 encounter with Weinstein in a
HuffPost report. Sivan said that while working for local station News
12 Long Island, Weinstein cornered her in the hallway of a Manhattan
restaurant closed to the public and masturbated in front of her.
Sivan
said she had rejected an attempt by Weinstein to kiss her and told him
she had a boyfriend. “Well, can you just stand there and shut up,” she
claims he responded prior to allegedly masturbating.
“Luckily
I didn't need a job or favor from him + didn't have to be polite,”
Sivan tweeted Friday. “Others did. Keep that in mind.”
Yeah. This happened👇🏽luckily I didn't need a job or favor from him +

another tweet, she said, “For those asking why I waited? YOU try

She later spoke about the alleged incident on Megyn Kelly’s NBC show Monday.
In
a tweet which has since been deleted, “Shaun of the Dead” actress
Jessica Hynes recounted an alleged incident involving Weinstein, People
reported.
“I was offered a film role at 19,” the
44-year-old reportedly wrote on Twitter. She alleged that Weinstein
“came on board and wanted me to screen test in a bikini. I refused
& lost the job.”

Former
model Zoe Brock wrote in a blog post for Medium that in 1997, when she
was 23, she was "Harveyed." Brock said she "had no intention of leading"
Weinstein on, and "felt safe in his company to be" herself.
Weinstein
allegedly tricked her into going to his hotel room, where she found
herself with no phone and no cash. He appeared naked and asked her for a
massage, she said, adding that she felt "uncomfortable."
Brock eventually, according to her blog post, got Weinstein to let her leave.

The Wrap
founder Sharon Waxman said she was working on a story about allegations
of sexual misconduct by Harvey Weinstein but the article was eventually
"gutted" after "intense pressure" from the movie mogul. (Reuters/Gus
Ruelas)
The Wrap founder Sharon Waxman claimed in an
article that while working for The New York Times in 2004, she “got the
green light to look into oft-repeated allegations of sexual misconduct
by Weinstein.”
Waxman said she was able to find the man
in charge of Miramax Italy. Citing “multiple accounts,” she alleged
that “his real job was to take care of Weinstein’s women needs, among
other things.”
Waxman claimed she was able to find “a
woman in London who had been paid off after an unwanted sexual encounter
with Weinstein,” she recalled in her piece.

avoided had @nytimes published what I had in my notebooks 13 years ago?
pic.twitter.com/CLRrtHWsNq
— Fox News (@FoxNews) October 10, 2017
However, Waxman alleged that there had been “intense pressure from Weinstein,” with the article “gutted.”
“The
story was stripped of any reference to sexual favors or coercion and
buried on the inside of the Culture section, an obscure story about
Miramax firing an Italian executive,” she wrote.
“Our
former colleague Sharon Waxman wrote about a story that was published in
The Times in 2004,” a Times spokesperson told Fox News. “No one
currently at The Times has knowledge of editorial decisions made on that
story. But in general the only reason a story or specific information
would be held is if it did not meet our standards for publication.”
British
writer Liza Campbell alleged in an essay published in The Sunday Times
of London that Weinstein suggested she take a bath with him at a hotel.
Weinstein had earlier "offered me freelance script-reading for Miramax,"
she wrote.
"Soon I was sent the script of Shakespeare
in Love to summarise and critique, followed by The Usual Suspects," she
wrote. "And then the scripts stopped coming. I rang the Miramax
offices, but nothing happened."
She says that in a
phone call with Weinstein, she told the producer that "everything had
stuttered to a halt. He said: "You better come to my hotel and we’ll
sort this out.""
When she met him at his suite, there
were initially several assistants present, but "suddenly all the
assistants vanished," Campbell claimed. She said they talked for several
minutes before Weinstein left the room, and that she thought he'd gone
to the restroom.
"I could hear him moving around and
suddenly the sound of bath taps running. 'What do you say we both jump
in the bath?' he hollered," she wrote.
Weinstein also allegedly told her, “Come on, it’ll be fun. We can drink champagne. You can soap me — whaddaya say?”
Campbell
claimed to tell the producer loudly, “If you come back into this room
with no clothes on I’m going to f****** lose my temper.”
She says she got out using one door, after she found that two others were locked.
A
Weinstein representative told the newspaper that the producer "will not
respond to allegations about private matters in a public forum."
Monday, October 9
Louise
Godbold alleged in an essay published online Monday that "in the early
‘90s, I too was one of the young women he preyed upon." Godbold is an
executive director for a Los Angeles nonprofit, Variety reports.
"The
details of what I have learned was not unique to me are out there now –
the office tour that became an occasion to trap me in an empty meeting
room, the begging for a massage, his hands on my shoulders as I
attempted to beat a retreat… all while not wanting to alienate the most
powerful man in Hollywood," she wrote.
Godbold
recalled "the girlfriend who had introduced me to Harvey and was angry
with me after he called her wanting to make sure I wasn’t going to make a
complaint about his behavior."

From aggressive overtures to sexual assault: Harvey Weinstein’s
accusers end their silence: https://t.co/zSQbK5NV0c
pic.twitter.com/e7vS28hckt
— The New Yorker (@NewYorker) October 10, 2017
Ronan
Farrow published a piece in The New Yorker which reported that 13 women
alleged they were sexually harassed or assaulted by Weinstein.
Former aspiring actress Lucia Evans went on the record to allege Weinstein forced her to perform oral sex during a meeting.
"I tried to get away, but maybe I didn’t try hard enough," she told The New Yorker. "I didn’t want to kick him or fight him."
Actress-director
Asia Argento, the daughter of famed horror filmmaker Dario Argento,
claimed that when she was 21 in 1997, she was invited to what she
believed was a Miramax party, but ended up in a hotel room with just
Weinstein in it, the report said.
Weinstein left the
room, but came back in a bathrobe and asked her for a massage, the
report claimed. She "reluctantly" said she would before Weinstein went
on to forcibly perform oral sex, the report alleged.
Argento
claimed that Weinstein would contact her after the alleged assault, and
that she would later have consensual relations with the movie mogul.
“I
felt I had to,” Argento explained to The New Yorker regarding the
initial such time. “Because I had the movie coming out and I didn’t want
to anger him.”
An unnamed woman claimed to The New
Yorker that Weinstein brought her to a hotel room before he changed into
a bathrobe and “forced himself” on her. She reportedly thought about
going to authorities, but decided not to.
She later
maintained professional relations with the producer, the report said. “I
was in a vulnerable position and I needed my job,” she explained.
Actress Mira Sorvino described an alleged 1995 hotel room incident with Weinstein to the publication.
"He
started massaging my shoulders, which made me very uncomfortable, and
then tried to get more physical, sort of chasing me around," Sorvino
said. She reportedly left after saying it went against her faith to date
married men.
An unnamed actress locked herself in a
bathroom at a hotel so as to avoid the producer, she told The New
Yorker. The actress also reportedly alleged that Weinstein masturbated
in front of her.
The article also cited a 2015 audio
recording made by the New York Police Department wherein Weinstein
admits to groping Battilana Gutierrez, mentioned earlier in the Times
piece.
The New Yorker article also described a meeting
at a Beverly Hills hotel between Weinstein and Weinstein Company temp
Emily Nestor, who was also mentioned in the Times report. Nestor, it
said, refused his offer to be placed in his London office and be his
girlfriend, and she also refused to hold his hand.
Weinstein,
she alleged, told her, "Oh, the girls always say ‘no.’ You know, ‘No,
no.’ And then they have a beer or two and then they’re throwing
themselves at me."
The producer, she claimed, also allegedly said "that he’d never had to do anything like Bill Cosby."
"Nestor
had a conversation with company officials about the matter but didn’t
pursue it further: the officials said that Weinstein would be informed
of anything she told them, a practice not uncommon in smaller
businesses," Farrow wrote.
The report also described
how French actress Emma de Caunes had a lunch meeting with Weinstein at a
Paris hotel, and that he mentioned he had a movie adaptation of a book
in the works.
Weinstein, according to the report,
allegedly asked her to go with him to his room to get the book, and de
Caunes answered her phone while Weinstein went into the bathroom. de
Caunes recalled Weinstein later allegedly emerging from the bathroom
nude with an erection.
The producer, she claims, told her to lay down on the bed. de Caunes ultimately fled the room.
Actress
Rosanna Arquette and the producer were to have a dinner meeting during
which she'd get a script at a hotel in Beverly Hills, and Arquette was
told to go to his room, The New Yorker report said. Weinstein allegedly
was wearing a bathrobe when he opened the door and claimed to need a
massage.
Arquette, according to the report, said that
she could give him a masseuse recommendation. During the encounter, she
alleges that Weinstein tried to lead her hand to his erect penis. She
turned him down.
Both Arquette and Sorvino allege that refusing Weinstein impacted their careers.
"There
may have been other factors, but I definitely felt iced out and that my
rejection of Harvey had something to do with it," Sorvino told The New
Yorker.
The New Yorker article recounted an alleged
incident between Weinstein and actress Jessica Barth at a Beverly Hills
hotel. At his hotel room, the report described how Weinstein allegedly
"alternated between offering to cast her in a film and demanding a naked
massage in bed."
Barth refused to give him a massage
and while she was leaving Weinstein offered a meeting with a female
executive, according to the article.
“Any allegations
of non-consensual sex are unequivocally denied by Mr. Weinstein,"
Weinstein spokeswoman Sallie Hofmeister told The New Yorker. "Mr.
Weinstein has further confirmed that there were never any acts of
retaliation against any women for refusing his advances. Mr. Weinstein
obviously can’t speak to anonymous allegations, but with respect to any
women who have made allegations on the record, Mr. Weinstein believes
that all of these relationships were consensual. Mr. Weinstein has begun
counseling, has listened to the community and is pursuing a better
path. Mr. Weinstein is hoping that, if he makes enough progress, he will
be given a second chance.”
Actresses Gwyneth Paltrow
and Angelina Jolie were among the women in a follow-up New York Times
piece published Tuesday who allege Weinstein harassed them. Arquette
also spoke to the newspaper.
Paltrow described
Weinstein's attempt to lure her, as a then-22-year-old aspiring actress,
into giving him a massage in a hotel room. The incident prompted her
then-boyfriend Brad Pitt to confront Weinstein at a film premiere. The
producer, according to the report, allegedly ordered Paltrow not to tell
people about what happened.

Jolie also turned down Weinstein, who allegedly hit on her in a hotel room in the 1990s, the report said.
"I
had a bad experience with Harvey Weinstein in my youth, and as a
result, chose never to work with him again and warn others when they
did,” Jolie, now 42, told the Times in email. “This behavior towards
women in any field, any country is unacceptable.”
The
Times report also recounted a meeting between Tomi-Ann Roberts and
Weinstein. Weinstein was naked in a bathrobe when she showed up, Roberts
alleges. He also allegedly said her audition would be better if she got
naked. She turned him down and left, according to the Times report.
Actress
Katherine Kendall told the Times that she was at Weinstein's apartment
when he came back from the bathroom in a bathrobe and requested a
massage. Weinstein exited the room and came back naked after she said
no, Kendall alleged.
Kendall claims that Weinstein
chased her around the room and that he also asked her to show him her
breasts, which she declined.
While in a hotel suite
with Weinstein in 1996, French actress Judith Godrèche turned down his
alleged request for a massage, the Times reported. She claimed Weinstein
later tried "pressing against me and pulling off my sweater." She left
the room.
Actress Dawn Dunning claims that Weinstein
offered her contracts for his next three movies as long as she would
have three-way sex with him, according to the Times report. She took
off.
“Any allegations of non-consensual sex are
unequivocally denied by Mr. Weinstein," Hofmeister told the Times in a
statement. "Mr. Weinstein has further confirmed that there were never
any acts of retaliation against any women for refusing his advances. He
will not be available for further comments, as he is taking the time to
focus on his family, on getting counseling and rebuilding his life.”
A
report published early Tuesday by The Guardian described how Weinstein
allegedly wore just a robe during a hotel room meeting with British
actress Romola Garai.
“Like every other woman in the
industry, I’ve had an ‘audition’ with Harvey Weinstein, where I’d
actually already had the audition but you had to be personally approved
by him,” Garai told the publication. “So I had to go to his hotel room
in the Savoy, and he answered the door in his bathrobe. I was only 18. I
felt violated by it, it has stayed very clearly in my memory.”
“The
point was that he could get a young woman to do that, that I didn’t
have a choice, that it was humiliating for me and that he had the
power,” the 35-year-old "Atonement" actress said.
Also
Tuesday, former actress and screenwriter Louisette Geiss alleged that
Weinstein appeared in an open bathrobe with no clothes on during a
meeting at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival. She claims that Weinstein
asked several times that she watch him masturbate during the 2008
encounter.
Geiss made the allegations during a news
conference with attorney Gloria Allred, who invited Weinstein to meet
with his alleged victims in a mediation or arbitration process.
Geiss
said in a statement that she is coming forward to help give voice to
other alleged victims of sexual harassment. She said her experience with
Weinstein led to her departure from the entertainment industry. She now
works in real estate.
Actress Heather Graham said Weinstein implied she would have to sleep with him for a role in a Tuesday column for Variety.
She
described a meeting with Weinstein in the early 2000s "in which he
mentioned that he had an agreement with his wife. He could sleep with
whomever he wanted when he was out of town."
"There was
no explicit mention that to star in one of those films I had to sleep
with him, but the subtext was there," she alleged.
Graham
says she later skipped a meeting with Weinstein at a hotel because her
actress friend who was supposed to come along said she was unable to
attend.
"That was the end of that encounter — I was
never hired for one of his films, and I didn’t speak up about my
experience," she wrote. "It wasn’t until Ashley Judd heroically shared
her story a few days ago that I felt ashamed."
Wednesday, October 11
Actress and supermodel Cara Delevingne took to Instagram to describe her encounters with Weinstein.
"When
I first started to work as an actress, I was working on a film and I
received a call from Harvey Weinstein asking if I had slept with any of
the women I was seen out in the middle with," the statement said. The
model said she didn't answer his questions and "hurried off the phone."
She also described a later incident where Weinstein asked her to come his hotel room.
"I
quickly declined and asked his assistant if my car was outside," the
statement said. "She said it wasn't and wouldn't be for a bit and I
should go to his room."
The model said she felt "powerless" and that in the room, there was a second woman.
"He
asked us to kiss and she began some sort of advances upon his
direction," she alleged. "I swiftly got up and asked him if he knew that
I could sing. And I began to sing....i thought it would make the
situation better....more professional....like an audition....i was so
nervous. After singing I said again that I had to leave. He walked me to
the door and stood in front of it and tried to kiss me on the lips. I
stopped him and managed to get out of the room."
Actress
Léa Seydoux told The Guardian that at the beginning of her career,
during a conversation with Weinstein, he jumped toward her and attempted
to kiss her.
“We were talking on the sofa when he
suddenly jumped on me and tried to kiss me,” Seydoux said. “I had to
defend myself. He’s big and fat, so I had to be forceful to resist him."
The
"Spectre" actress added: “He tried more than once,” and described
Weinstein as “very domineering” and “losing control.” Seydoux told the
news outlet that she "pushed him physically. I think he respected me
because I resisted him.”
Actress Sarah Ann Masse
described to Variety how Weinstein allegedly was in just his
undergarments during her 2008 interview for a nanny position at his
house in Connecticut.
“Harvey Weinstein opened the
door in his boxer shorts and an undershirt. My first thought was, ‘Oh,
this is weird. Maybe he forgot this interview is happening. Maybe he
thought I was the mailman. I’m sure he’ll be embarrassed and excuse
himself and get changed.’ But he didn’t,” she told the publication.
She
claims he asked in the job interview, “You would never flirt with my
friends or anyone to get ahead?” and that she told him no.
Masse
claimed at the end he "gave me this really tight, close hug that lasted
for quite a long period of time. He was still in his underwear. Then he
told me he loved me. I left right after that."
Thursday, October 12
Actress Kate Beckinsale said in an Instagram post that when she was 17 years old, she was invited to meet Weinstein at a hotel.
She says she thought the meeting would happen in a conference room, but she was directed to Weinstein's room instead.
“He
opened the door in his bathrobe. I was incredibly naive and young and
it did not cross my mind that this older, unattractive man would expect
me to have any sexual interest in him," she alleged. "After declining
alcohol and announcing that I had school in the morning I left, uneasy
but unscathed.”
Weinstein, she claims, asked her a few years down the line "if he had tried anything with me in that first meeting."
The actress said she "realized he couldn't remember if he had assaulted me or not."
"I
said no to him professionally many times over the years-some of which
ended up with him screaming at me calling me a c*** and making threats,
some of which made him laughingly tell people oh "Kate lives to say no
to me," she wrote.
British actress Claire Forlani also posted a statement on Twitter in which she claimed that she “escaped 5 times.”
She
said there had been two night meetings at a hotel with Weinstein “and
all I remember was I ducked , dived and ultimately got out of there
without getting slobbered over, well just a bit. Yes massage was
suggested.”

Forlani
alleged there were three dinners and she recalled him listing “all the
actresses who had slept with him and what he had done for them.”
Earlier
in her statement, Forlani revealed Ronan Farrow had contacted her, but
that she didn’t take part in The New Yorker expose.
“Today I sit here feeling some shame,” she confided.
French
actress Florence Darel alleged to Le Parisien in a French-language
interview that Weinstein hit on her in a hotel room in 1995 -- with his
wife in the next room.
“He started to tell me that he
found me very attractive and wanted to have relations with me,” Darel,
now 49, said. “I told him I was very in love with my companion. He
replied that didn’t bother him at all and offered to have me be his
mistress a few days a year. That way we could continue to work together.
Basically, it was ‘If you want to continue in America, you have to go
through me.’”
Darel says she left.
English
actor Sophie Dix, who was 22 in the 1990s when she met Weinstein, said
her possible career path was "massively cut down" after an experience
with the producer, according to The Guardian.
Dix said
she found herself in a hotel room with Weinstein, and "all the alarm
bells starting ringing." She was in bed with Weinstein "tugging at her
clothes," before she hid in the bathroom. Once she opened the door, she
saw him "standing there masturbating."
It was then she decided not to pursue acting. "I decided if this is what being an actress is like, I don't want it," Dix said.
Friday, October 13
Actress
and former model Angie Everhart claimed Weinstein masturbated in front
of her on a yacht more than 10 years ago, according to an interview she
did with TMZ.
The incident allegedly occurred after
Everhart had arrived in France for the Cannes Film Festival, she said.
Feeling jetlagged, she reportedly fell asleep in one of the cabins. She
later woke up to the sight of Weinstein in her room, blocking the door
and masturbating, she said.
Despite him telling her
not to, Everhart said she "told everyone" about what happened, including
producers and other actors. But everyone reportedly shrugged off the
situation saying, "oh that's just Harvey."
She said
everybody knew what he was doing to women but no one said anything about
it until the Times article was published on Oct. 5.

I don't know, oh no, oh no
Well, I'm sorry girl but I can't stay
Feelin' like I do today
It's too much pain and too much sorrow
Guess I'll feel the same tomorrow
Well this could be the last time
This could be the last time
Maybe the last time
I don't know, oh no, oh no
Well this could be the last time
This could be the last time
Maybe the last time
I don't know, oh no, oh no
Well I told you once and I told you twice
That someone will have to pay the price
But here's a chance to change your mind
'Cause I'll…
Well this could be the last time
This could be the last time
Maybe the last time
I don't know, oh no, oh no
Last time baby
To say no more
Baby I don't know
Well I don't know
Well, I don't know
I don't know
Well, I don't know...

Acknowledgement: You who call yourself a muslim but don't support
sharia but instead Human Rights equality, you are not the target of
Klevius writings - although Klevius likes to remind you of the possible
support to anti-.Human Rights muslims your naming of yourself may imply.
All sharia* muslims ought to be classified as criminals (as Human Rights
defenders are classified in islam's "homeland" Saudi Arabia) because of
their
membership of a terrorist organization, the so called** islam. Adhering
to Saudi based and steered OIC's Human Rights violating sharia
declaration means accepting Wahhabism/Salafism (i.e. the origin of
islam)
* Sharia is here defined in accordance
with Saudi based and steered OIC's sharia declaration in UN and how
this clashes with the most basic rights of equality in UN's 1948 Human
Rights Declaration.
** Islam was in its very beginning a
Jewish/Christian sect using Jewish-Christian texts for what later
became the so called Koran. This is why earlier parts of the so called
Koran are less violent than later parts which were added to fit the
"conquest" of the "infidels" because a parasitic robber ideology can
only survive by sponging on others.
Ben Weingarten: Invariably you will
hear the argument that while parts of the Koran are violent, others are
peaceful. Such a view evinces further ignorance however, as it fails to
address two essential Islamic concepts: (a) Abrogation and (b) taqiyya.
Abrogation
refers to the fact that as the Koran reflects Allah’s divine revealed
word, where there are textual contradictions, those passages revealed
later must supplant those that preceded it. These later passages are
frequently more violent than the earlier peaceful ones.
Taqiyya
refers to strategic lying and deception – covering up one’s true
intentions so as to defeat one’s enemies. This manifests itself in acts
of sabotage, subversion and the propagation of strategic disinformation,
not unlike what the Communists did during and after the Cold War.
Others
will argue that just as the Koran has violent verses, so too do the Old
and New Testaments. But Jews and Christians do not go out and slaughter
in the name of their G-d in a modern-day global Crusade like the
jihadists are waging. Moreover, the values and principles that flow from
these two religious systems have led to the miracle that is Western
civilization. The Muslim world on the other hand, especially where
Islamic doctrine is followed in its purest form, resembles the seventh
century one that preceded it.
Lest you think those who have
studied Islam in schools are better off, in America’s universities
taqiyya has become an art form. Many of the Middle Eastern departments
at our country’s most prestigious academic institutions have been found
to put on a “moderate” public face while serving as Trojan horses for
anti-Semitism, anti-Zionism and anti-Westernism — all consistent with
Islamic doctrine.
This should come as no surprise, as these
departments – and even K-12 schools — are often funded by Islamic
nations who are the primary backers of Islamic supremacism themselves.
For
those able to see past multiculturalism, moral relativism, materialism
and actually study Islam in theory and practice, recognizing that the
religion at the very least as understood by millions of Muslims is not
only incompatible with, but hostile to our very existence, this is a
staggering realization. It offends our pluralistic, tolerant
sensitivities to think that such a massive, religiously-justified threat
could exist. For while similarly savage enemies marched throughout the
20th century, none were tinged with theology, and Communism for its part
was explicitly anti-religious.
Moreover, there are uncomfortable
practical questions that such a threat raises. Who exactly are we
fighting if there are millions of jihadists, aiders, abettors and
enablers all over the world? How are we to fight them? What measures can
we take to secure the homeland that are both sufficient and consonant
with a free society?
Today, the West is clearly not even at the
point of asking these questions, which reflects a lack of education on
behalf of some, and denial on the part of others. That it is considered a
bold act to utter phrases like “Radical Islam,” or “Islamic extremism”
or “Islamism,” in the face of now over 25,000 jihadist attacks since
Sept. 11, 2001 indicates as much. Imagine what kind of stones it would
take to repeat after Turkey’s President Tayyip Erdoğan, that in effect
there is no such thing as “moderate Islam” or “Islamism,” and such
“descriptions are very ugly…offensive and an insult to our
religion…Islam is Islam and that’s it.”
Rather than deal with
reality, we figuratively bury our heads in the sand. Meanwhile, savage
jihadists lop off and literally bury infidel heads in the sand.
If
we are going to turn the tide in a war that we are currently not
fighting, it is imperative that a sizable number of Americans wake up.
It behooves all men and women of good conscience to educate their fellow
citizens, and spark this awakening.
Klevius question: Who made these tragic girls so ignorant about islam?
Klevus answer: Everyone who uses the oxymoron "islamophobia" to cover up
the evil of islam. However, sex segregation/apartheid* is the real
issue behind all of islam. If you can't accept Human Rights equality for
girls/women then you're an accomplice to evil islam - or a victim.
* Islam reproduces itself through its
evil one way pillar, rapetivism, i.e. the biological and
ideologicalreproduction of muslim men.
Did black (or why not Khoisan) South-Africans think their biological
constitution made it ok to not have the same rights as others? Klevius
thinks they didn't. However, Klevius knows for sure that many (possibly
even most) women still think their biological constitution is a fair
excuse for sex-apartheid. This self-imposed entrapment is not only
limiting but also a crucial key to the "understanding" of general
muslim/islamic/Koranic/sharia (call it what you like) sex apartheid (sex
segregation).
Is the most basic Human Rights violating muslim sharia supremacism really "conducive to the public good" in Britain?
