Muslim Brotherhood: "The Jews Attacked Mumbai"

It was all a Mossad conspiracy, doncha know.

The Muslim Brotherhood, the organization that is dedicated in its own words to "a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and sabotaging its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God's religion is made victorious over all other religions," has done the inevitable and expected and unsurprising in blaming the jihad attacks in Mumbai not on the jihadists whose motives and goals it shares, but on none other than...the Jews.


And the author of this farrago, one Amaresh Misra, is calling for blood. "We will fight a civil war if need be," he declares, "against the pro-Hindutva, communal forces and their Israeli backers."Conspiracy Fantasy and Projection Alert: "Mumbai and India Under Attack," by Amaresh Misra for Ikhwan Web....

Extreme Pro-Abortion Leader Chosen for Obama Communications Director

By Kathleen Gilbert

WASHINGTON, D.C., November 24, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - President-elect Obama has continued the trend of appointing radical left-wing and pro-abortion figures to his Cabinet with the announcement that Ellen Moran is to be his future White House Communications Director.

Moran is currently the executive director of EMILY's List, a major political action committee dedicated solely to promoting the political careers of pro-abortion Democratic women.

On their website, EMILY's List describes its "three-pronged strategy to elect pro-choice Democratic women: recruiting and funding viable women candidates; helping them build and run effective campaign organizations; and mobilizing women voters to help elect progressive candidates across the nation."

The constituency group had long been a supporter of Hillary Clinton, but threw its weight behind Obama after Clinton lost her bid for the Democratic nomination.

Moran has in the past assumed the role of directing independent expenditures for the Democratic National Committee, and has extensive experience managing campaigns for the Democratic National Committee and individual Democratic politicians.

As Communications Director, Moran will be in charge of the White House's presentation to media outlets, as well as speeches such as the inaugural and State of the Union addresses.

EMILY’s List has raised over $240 million for pro-abortion female Democrats since its inception in 1984. The organization is notable for allying itself only to candidates who unquestioningly support taxpayer-funded and partial birth abortion. Senators Mary Landrieu from Louisiana and Blanche Lincoln from Arkansas are two former EMILY's List beneficiaries who fell from the List's good graces when they voted to ban partial-birth abortion.

Detractors Downplay Pro-Abortion FOCA Bill's Reach, Say Pro-Lifers Exaggerate

November 24, 2008

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- With Barack Obama in the White House and abortion advocates having a strong grip on Congress, pro-life advocates are wasting no time in energizing the grassroots for the next battle. While pro-life advocates accurately point out the far-reaching effects of the pro-abortion FOCA bill, detractors claim they're exaggerating.

FOCA, or the so-called Freedom of Choice Act, is the Congressional bill that would take the Roe v. Wade ruling and its promotion of unlimited abortions throughout pregnancy for any reason and make it national law.

But the effect of the legislation goes well beyond that -- and even leading pro-abortion groups and lawmakers acknowledge this.

The bill would topple hundreds of pro-life laws in every state in the nation including freedom of conscience laws that protect private hospitals and medical personnel from having to do abortions.

As LifeNews.com has reported, the nation's Catholic bishops are very worried that Catholic hospitals, under FOCA, would be compelled to do abortions. They warned that they would go as far as shutting them down if Obama signs the bill.

Now, liberal web sites are starting a new campaign to play down the effects of the bill and deceive the public into thinking it's not so bad.

"What in the world were these bishops talking about, claiming that religious freedom in America was under attack? Keep up the hysterics, boys," the liberal web site Slate writes.

"And the most ludicrous line out of them, surely, was about how, under Obama, Catholic hospitals that provide obstetric and gynecological services might soon be forced to perform abortions or close their doors," Slate added.

The liberal evangelical web site BeliefNet, which ran article after article playing down Obama's pro-abortion views during the election, has a new editorial up calling the FOCA concerns a "phantom."

David Gibson calls the concerns the "Catholic right's doomsday prophesying" and sarcastically lambastes the bishops by saying they are worried about making "abortion-on-demand part of a mandated kindergarten curriculum" and pushing "the Catholic Church back into the catacombs."

Gibson goes as far as saying the pro-life movement needed to invent the concerns about FOCA to engender opposition to Obama and that the pro-life movement is largely reactive in nature -- its proactive work in pregnancy centers and promoting pro-life legislation notwithstanding.

Kathryn Jean Lopez, the editor of National Review Online, responded Tuesday to the attempts to downplay the concerns about FOCA.

"Though it's often referred to as a mere codification of Roe, FOCA, as currently drafted, actually goes well beyond that," she explains.

She quotes information from pro-abortion Sen. Barbara Boxer who, in a statement on her web site, explains that FOCA would nullify all existing laws and regulations that limit abortion in any way, up to the time of fetal viability.

"While there is strenuous debate among legal experts on the matter, many believe the act would invalidate the freedom-of-conscience laws on the books in 46 states," Lopez said.

"These are the laws that allow Catholic hospitals and health providers that receive public funds through Medicaid and Medicare to opt out of performing abortions. Without public funds, these health centers couldn't stay open; if forced to do abortions, they would sooner close their doors," she added.

"The bishops are not bluffing when they say they'd turn out the lights rather than comply," she concludes.

Criminal Gangs and the Occult

By Richard Valdemar,

Throughout the long history of Los Angeles street gangs, their members have flirted with the dark side of evil.
March 28, 2008

Let no one be found among you who sacrifices his son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead. Anyone who does these things is detestable to the Lord, and because of these detestable practices the LORD your God will drive out those nations before you.

Deuteronomy 18:10-13

Throughout the long history of Los Angeles street gangs, their members have flirted with the dark side of evil. On the one hand, they claimed to be defenders of their race and neighborhood; on the other, they acted in league with the devil, both metaphorically and literally. This conflict can be seen in the mixture of religious and demonic symbols depicted on their tattooed bodies.

While most street gangs were not driven by evil spiritual motivation, in the ugly manmade hell of prison some of these gangs clearly turned to the dark side, with escalated violence being the result. The Mexican Mafia actually forbade its members from "picking up the Bible" or espousing any form of Christianity. Some members of the Aryan Brotherhood were followers of pagan witchcraft, or worshipers of the devil.

In taking on these new belief systems many gang members eschewed the moral codes they had previously ascribed to as part of their religious/superstitious upbringing.

Pagan Rituals and Stoner Gangs

In the 1980s, Cuban "Marielitos" brought Afro-Cuban cult beliefs into the Los Angeles drug and gang culture. Santeria, Voodoo, and Palo Mayombe followers became some of the most violent criminal gang members Los Angeles had ever seen. Across the city, small altars with caldrons or "gangas" of fruit, rum, and cocaine, as well as animal blood sacrifices, dotted the map. "Botanicas" (occult pharmacies) that sold the paraphernalia required for these rituals sprang up in every community.

Drug cartels from Mexico practiced their own rituals. "Brujeria" (witchcraft) altars with figurines of the bandit saint "Jesus Malverde" or "Santisima Muerte" (holy death) were common in cartel drug houses. Cartel members wore amulets and placed figurines of occult symbols in their cars. Some openly worshipped Satan.

During the heavy metal music era of the early- to mid-1980s, a new type of gang began to get the attention of gang cops in Los Angeles. Unlike the common "Cholo" gangs, these new gangs were made up of "Stoners," kids who wore black concert T-shirts, leather jackets adorned with spikes and studs, and long hair. They rejected the classic "oldies but goodies" in favor of AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Ozzy Osborne, and Motley Crew.

They also rejected the Cholo gang morals and code of conduct. The Hole Stoners, ELA Stoners, MS Stoners (later to evolve into MS-13), and others played by their own rules. Soon these new Stoner gangs outnumbered traditional gang members in East Los Angeles booking cages. In turn, they were ostracized by most Cholo gang members.

Australia rejects family with Down son

By Staff / Baptist Press

WASHINGTON (BP)--An Australian government agency has denied a German doctor's request for permanent residency because his 13-year-old son has Down syndrome.

Bernhard Moeller and his family moved to Australia two years ago for him to practice in a rural area of Victoria state that has a shortage of physicians.

The Department of Immigration and Citizenship rejected Moeller's application for permanent residency because his son, Lukas, "did not meet the health requirement," according to the department. An immigration department spokesman said Oct. 30 the rejection came because a medical official had determined Lukas' condition "was likely to result in a significant and ongoing cost to the Australian community," the Associated Press reported.

"This is not discrimination," the spokesman said, according to AP. "A disability in itself is not grounds for failing the health requirement -- it is a question of the cost implications to the community."

American bioethics specialist Wesley Smith refused to accept the department's claim.

"Of course it is discrimination.... If you think not, let's try a mind experiment: Would Australia ever deny permanent residence to a family whose child had HIV? The outcry would be heard in the States," Smith wrote on his weblog.

"This is shameful eugenics, morally akin in my view to laws in the USA that barred disfavored nationalities and Jews in the years running up to World War II.

"This eugenic tide is flowing, not ebbing, and people with Down are prime targets; of eugenic abortion, of medical neglect after birth, of infanticide, of health care rationing, of futile care theory, and now of refused immigration," Smith said. "Such are the consequences of rejecting human exceptionalism and embracing the bigotry intrinsic to the 'quality of life' ethic."

Smithsonian Honors Racist Eugenicist Margaret Sanger

From Dakota Voice

Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood, is being honored with your tax dollars at the Smithsonian Institute.

In addition to starting the nation's #1 provider of abortions, Sanger was also a eugenicist (one who sought to cleanse the gene pool of "undesirable" races) of great proportions.

Aren't you thrilled to have this dark element of your country's past (and present) honored at the Smithsonian?

Aren't you even more thrilled that your wallet is being lightened to do it?
