Israpundit provides a historical perspective of the founding of the modern State of Israel. I believe it is doubtful you have read this perspective in Leftist influenced text books in High School or the collegiate level. The text book perspective is probably loaded with accusations of Jewish atrocities as the Zionist State of Israel emerged.
I am certain there are acts of violence perpetrated by the independent Jewish militias that eventually merged into the Israel Defense Force (IDF). The fight for independence and Israel’s desire for a sovereign State for Jews to live in which the government’s policy does not even have a hint of anti-Semitism undoubtedly led to some bad decisions. One has to wonder: How did the Jewish desire for a Jewish State for Jews differ from the Islamic hatred spread in propaganda by Grand Mufti Haj Amin al-Husseini calling for the extermination of Jews in the British Palestine Mandate. Jewish militias only began to utilize violence when it became obvious the Brits were determined to leave the Palestine Mandate. The Brit determination to leave was matched by the desire for the British Empire to have good standing with Middle Eastern Muslims. The Arab violence began as a result of al-Husseini Jew-hatred and the belief the Brits and America would befriend Arab nations to counter Soviet expansionist dreams at the end of WWII.
Anyway … further your Israeli historical education which Israpundit insinuates is the American plan for the Middle East – at the expense of Jews.

I have to confess I am not a big fan of Michael Savage. His version of the Slanted Right appears to be a bit harsh. On the other hand he is battling CAIR so I do have a bit interest in Savage at the moment.
Recently Savage was on a list of undesirables forbidden to enter the United Kingdom. I haven’t followed up on the certainty of a WND report that the incoming Home Secretary was removing Savage from that list.
Now information has been dredged up that Michael Savage was placed on that ‘forbidden to enter’ list because he is Jewish by heritage. Evidently the British government in typical Leftist egalitarian fashion that most of Europe is noted for these days did not wish to appear to be singling out Muslims for that list. The word came down to place Jewish Savage on the list in an effort to bring balance to the amount of Muslims on the list.
I guess this is the logical step for a nation willing to abandon its Western heritage to accommodate an immigrant Muslim culture by allowing Sharia Law to trump British law when it comes to intra-Muslim affairs in Britain. Couple this Muslim accommodation with rising European (including Britain) anti-Semitism, I guess the next logical step is to ban an American Jew as if that will placate the indigenous immigrant Muslim population.
Now that is a load of British manure.
The Islamist Watch blog has posted a piece that is wondering about the contrasts within the Anglican Communion.
The contrast is between Michael Nazir-Ali (Bishop of Rochester, England) and Ann Holmes Redding and former Episcopalian Priest (Anglican Communion) residing in Seattle, WA.
Michael Nazir-Ali is a Pakistan born British citizen that has risen to the Episcopal position of Bishop. Now here is the irony of Nazir-Ali: he rebukes the stand of the Archbishop of Canterbury (the Big Dog of the Anglican Communion) Rowan Williams for proclaiming Sharia Law is an inevitable reality that the UK should validate as part of the rule of law.
Nazir-Ali is extremely anti-radical Islam and appropriately points out that Sharia Law would (and IS) dilute the British Christian heritage that has made the UK a land of individual freedom. Radical Islam will “emphasize the solidarity” of the global Muslim community. In other words Islam promotes intolerance and Christianity promotes Liberty.
Nazir Ali has survived deep animosity in Britain from Islamists who resent his outspoken critique of radical Islam. "It is a matter of public record that I have received death threats from militant Muslims," he told the Jerusalem press conference. Earlier this year, the Bishop of Rochester sharply criticized Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams’ suggestion that Britain recognize some aspects of Islamic law. Last month, he criticized the Church of England’s reluctance to share the Gospel with Muslims. (FrontPage Magazine)
It is with sadness that Bishop Michael Nazir-Ali is stepping down from his Episcopal Office in England to aid Christians who are a minority in areas in which intolerant Islam dominates. A risky decision to share the Gospel in areas that it is a capital offense to convert away from Mohammedanism.
Then there is former Priest Ann Holmes Redding. The key word is former. For even the Left Wing Episcopal Church in America recognizes that one cannot be both a Muslim and a Christian and serve as an Episcopal Priest representing Christianity. That is the very ludicrous position that Anne Holmes Redding demanded to be accepted for. Fortunately the Big Dog in the America’s (or at least in the line of authority) Episcopalian Left leaning denomination defrocked Anne Holmes Redding.
For Redding to be a good Muslim according to Mohammedan revered writings, she may have to kill herself for being a Christian. By the way, do not be fooled by Muslim apologists that attempt to tell a critic of Islam that the slaughter the kafir writings must be seen in the light of peaceful Islamic writings. That Muslim apologist has either not educated their self fully in Mohammedan theology or has a complete Muslim theological understanding and is attempting to deceive the critic of Islam. The principle for this in Mohammedanism is called abrogation. In short the murderous writings mostly from Medina outweigh the peaceful writings mostly from Mecca.

I just finished reading a tirade from a blogger upset that the British National Party (BNP) members are being selectively banned from jobs and governmental services.
Evidently the BNP has a historical timeline that goes back to thuggery aspects of pro-Nazi and Hitler-philes. This means the BNP heritage is a history of white supremacy and anti-Semitism.
Apparently the BNP has disavowed that past in their official writings but now take a controversial stand of anti-immigration. The focus of this anti-immigration is the growing population of Mohammedans in the UK.
The BNP anti-Mohammedan immigration stands no doubt derive from Britain diluting British rule of law by allowing Sharia Law courts to have legal jurisdiction over the culturally Mohammedan. Incredibly the Sharia Law acquiescence is even supported by the England’s State Church – The Church of England (aka Anglican Church and in America the Episcopalian Church).
Since the Brits have adapted the continental European stand that speaking against a religion is hate speech, an anti-Mohammedan immigration stand is considered racism by the government.
The HUGE irony is that Mohammedan mullahs and apologists speak the most vile hate speech first against Jews and next against practicing Christians. The British government and EU government nary lift a hand against the Mohammedans that preach their hatred of Jews and Christians.
Robert Locke writing for Think-Israel gives a good history of the BNP racist past. Now check this out: Locke is not sympathetic to the BNP past however he views the current BNP stand against Mohammedanism as something Israel should promote. There is an understanding that Mohammedanism has zero in common with the Liberty and Rights that exists in Western nations (and America in particular).
Since the BNP has a racist past and has renounced anti-Semitism, white supremacy and the fascist leanings of neo-Nazism; today the BNP is still a racist party by virtue of repatriating and preventing future Mohammedans from the UK.
Due to this media portrayal of racism there is a movement to ban BNP British citizens from certain jobs such as the police, nurses and the Anglican clergy.
Imagine that: A British citizen this wishes to uphold the British tradition of the rule of law or worship and minister for the Christian God are being prohibited from their positions. Could it be the traditional power brokers of Britain are trying to ensure the BNP’s growing popularity does not turn into British votes that translated into MPs in Parliament? I ask this question for the website for BNP is more popular than the power broker political parties combined.
Under the Obama Administration is this the kind of dilution of Liberty to expect in America?
Read the anger of the British citizen. (Do note this blogger oozes a bit of the BNP white supremacist past while simultaneously realizing the threat of Islamic culture to Western culture.)

Unbelievably the United Kingdom is embarking to legitimize Lebanon’s government within a government – the Islamic Shi’ite terrorist organization with puppet strings to Iran known as Hezbollah.
Britain is now reaching ever higher on its path to dhimmitude to its Mohammedan population whose Mosques are dominated by radical Islam.
The UK government is attempting to project an image similar with the Brits past terrorists of a political and military wing of the old Irish Republican Army (IRA). I am not too familiar with that terrorist history but off the top of my head it seems the UK government negotiated an end to IRA violence by engaging the political wing of the IRA which in turn influenced the military (i.e. terrorist) wing of the IRA.
In selling this distorted simile of an IRA and Hezbollah to the British subjects, the UK intends to (I am guessing) limit the amount of terrorism on British interests. By extension of the Hezbollah puppet strings to Iran it also implies working a political deal with the psycho Mullahs also of Iran.
Walid Phares writing for Political Mavens exposes the lunacy behind this British dhimmitude thinking. Take a gander at Phares’ short and to the point post!
I discovered a LiveLeak video of Brit-Mohammedans being shouted down by the indigenous English speaking British. Now Britain has been saturated in appeasement to the point of dhimmitude by its government even allowing legal authority to Mohammedan Sharia Law courts.
Could this video be a snapshot of fed-up British voters of the future? God willing!

Europe has become more than just post-Christian, it has become anti-Christian. I am sure there other European nations that demonstrate this anti-Christianity; however the nation I have been reading about lately is America’s old Mother-Country the United Kingdom (Great Britain, England or whatever).
Some Commission in the UK has cancelled the license of a foster care provider because she allowed one of her charges to convert from Mohammedanism to Christianity.
It is not as if the foster care provider coerced this sixteen Mohammedan girl into Christianity. The teenager insisted on checking out the foster care giver’s religion and then converted.
Can you see what is happening here? The UK is a Western nation in which Freedom of Religion is currently a hallmark.
I suspect the problem the foster care giver faces is government fear of the Brit’s intolerant Mohammedan population rioting because one of their own became a Mohammedan apostate and a Christian convert.
In case you are unaware the Mohammedan Quran and Hadith call for an apostate to be executed. Yes friends this is also another example of Western values clashing with Sharia Law values.
Did I mention that the UK has allowed Sharia Law to be practiced as a rule of law for Mohammedans? It is no wonder that the news article I read does not give the name of the foster care provider nor the Christian convert. Sharia Law calls for the penalty of death for the both of them.

Thank God for Act for America. Brigitte Gabriel’s activist organization enlists grassroots chapters across America to actively educate non-Muslims (called kafir by Muslims) about the dangers of an encroaching violent Theo-political death cult in American society. Act for America has delivered an email alert concerning the dhimmi appeasement in Britain might take place in America.
Britain actually has cities that allow judicial components to operate specifically in the jurisdiction of Muslims residing in Britain. This means Sharia Law is utilized in contradistinction to Britain’s Western Culture rule of law.
If you don’t know it, Sharia Law is one of the great evils developed by mankind to successfully keep practioners of Islam to tow the Islamic way and to viciously discriminate against non-Muslims (AKA kafir).
As for Muslims, Sharia Law also utilizes harsh punishments for breaking Islamic cultural mores such as leaving Islam, reducing women to chattel or sex-slaves, death for moral deviancy such as homosexuality, death to women victim’s of rape, (in Middle Easter areas) the loss of human appendages for theft, honor killings (primarily of women) if an action (such as dating a kafir) dishonors the Muslim family and on and on.
The Act for America email I received is a write up on a Damian Thompson blog entry of Britain’s Telegraph. Mr. Thompson’s title, “Exclusive: over 60 per cent of Britain's Muslim schools have extremist links, says draft report.”
Can you imagine that? Sixty percent of Britain’s private Islamic schools have “extremist links.” Since we live in a PC world let us be plain as to whom “extremist” refers to.
The “extremists” are Islamic terrorists from the Middle East, Islamic dominated nations and/or extreme Muslims within the West.
That should shed some clarity on the PC reference of “extremist.”
Basically here is the warning from Act for America: What happens in English speaking Britain in a cultural or legal framework oft times makes it’s way across the Atlantic Ocean to America. That being said – my fellow Americans – you should wonder how many private Islamic/Mohammedan schools (or even public schools with an Arabic/Muslim culture) has ties to Islamic extremism both here and abroad.
Here is the Act for America email:
60% of UK's Muslim schools linked to 'extremists'

Dear …,
We frequently refer you to what is happening in Great Britain because there we have a road map of what is coming to the United States, if we fail to act or choose to act as Great Britain has acted over the past 30 years. Seldom in life do we get the opportunity to see so clearly what does not work so that we can avoid replicating what does not work.
The bottom line is that Britain’s approach to dealing with the threat of radical Islam, no matter how well-intentioned, is proving to be an abject failure. Britain’s politically correct attempts to appease and accommodate Islamic militancy, in the hopes of mitigating radicalism and terrorism, are not only failing to mitigate those threats, they are accelerating them.
For instance, two different polls released over the past few years reveal that Britain’s Muslim population is increasingly clamoring for the imposition of Shariah law – which is now officially recognized in numerous cities across the country. These polls also reveal that second-generation Muslims, the children of the immigrants who came to Britain, are likely to be more radical than their parents.
The latest evidence of the failure of Britain’s approach is revealed in the commentary below.
As dangerous as Islamic terrorism is, to focus on that threat to the exclusion of the many ways that “cultural jihad” is being advanced in the West and here in America, is in itself dangerous. What will America be like in 30 years if we have 2,000 Islamic schools and madrassas in this country, a majority of which have links to extremists, teach extremist doctrines, and isolate their students from the world at large?
This is what the chilling study referred to below has found in Britain. This is cultural jihad at work. We are watching the transformation of Britain take place before our very eyes.
If we fail to act…or if we choose to act as Britain has…we are next.
Rest assured ACT! for America will do everything we can to ensure that doesn’t happen.
Do God in Heaven! Do Americans want Extremist Muslims teaching the American-Muslim population to hate America, the U.S. Constitution and Judaism? Think long and hard before you think this is a freedom of religion issue. This is an issue of Muslim Supremacists utilizing American laws to warp an exclusivity right for a specific religion (or as I prefer – Theo-political death cult).

I continue to be mystified that mainline Protestant Churches are beginning to advocate the matriculation of Mohammedan Sharia Law as part of the law of the land.
Not long ago the Archbishop of Canterbury residing in England and the symbolic leader of the world wide Anglican/Episcopalian Church advocated Sharia Law for the United Kingdom.
NOW the UK has instituted one of globe’s most inhumane Theo-political systems in Sharia Law with the force of Law. It is true the Brits have limited Sharia Law to civil law; nonetheless once instituted further encroachment on Western Civil Rights and Western Rule of Law will follow.
The Sharia Law delusion has now spread to the Scotland portion of the United Kingdom. The Church of Scotland is now endorsing this threat to human existence known as Mohammedan Sharia Law.
I was alerted to this delusional appeasement minded Western Civilization destroying information by the blog Islam in Action.

This latest round of multilateral talks ended with yet another rejection by Iranian negotiators and public defiance by Iran’s Mullocracy leadership.
Let us guess the response of the West to this latest rejection. O yes, increased economic sanctions that Iran will ignore AGAIN.
Here is the story according to an e-newsletter from The Israel Project (TIP):
