International Burn a Qur'an Day: Fan the Embers!
The pr campaign initiated by Pastor Terry Jones, though it ended in a fizzle, afforded us an opportunity to expose the evil contents of that abominable book. In Washington D.C., at the White House, two courageous men revealed the contents and crumpled pages from a translation. In New York, near the site of the proposed Ground Zero mosque, one brave man burned pages torn from a translation.
Islam has nothing to kvetch about because:
- Pastor Jones abandoned the burning ceremony.
- The crumpled Qur'an was a translation, not Arabic.
- The burned Qur'an was a translation, not Arabic.
Yet Muslims are bitching like a nervous little dog tied up outside, cold, hungry & lonely: barking incessantly. Their barking is both a threat to our liberty and an opportunity to expose Islam's damnable doctrines. We must repulse the threat and exploit the opportunity.
threat:
On September 22, 2010, Pakistan's delegate to the United Nations Human Rights Council submitted a draft resolution condemning International Burn a Qur'an Day. The draft is a single page packed with feces, some old and stale, some fresh and pungent. [Emphasis added to quotes for clarity.]stale feces
The preamble contains abusive perversion by reference to the U.N. Charter, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, ICERD & ICCPR. It continues with a disingenuous call for one sided inter-cultural dialogue. It extends its spew of feces by conflating criticism of Islam with racism by reference to the United Nations Millennium Declaration. It aggravates the offense by conflating criticism with physical violence.- Reaffirming the pledge made by all States under the Charter of the United Nations to
promote and encourage universal respect for and observance of human rights and fundamental
freedoms for all, without distinction as to race, sex, language or religion,
- Reaffirming also that all human rights are universal, indivisible, interdependent and interrelated,
- Reaffirming further that discrimination between human beings on the grounds of
religion or belief constitutes an affront to human dignity and a disavowal of the principles of
the Charter of the United Nations, and shall be condemned as a violation of the human rights
and fundamental freedoms proclaimed in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and
enunciated in detail in the International Covenants on Human Rights, and as an obstacle to
friendly and peaceful relations between nations,
- Welcoming also the resolve expressed in the United Nations Millennium Declaration,
adopted by the General Assembly in its resolution 55/2 on 8 September 2000, to take
measures to eliminate the increasing acts of racism and xenophobia in many societies and to
promote greater harmony and tolerance in all societies, and looking forward to its effective implementation at all levels, [Emphasis added.]
4. Emphasizes the urgent need to address the scourges of anti-Semitism, Christianophobia, and Islamophobia as contemporary forms of racism as well as racial and violent movements based on racism and discriminatory ideas directed at African, Arab, Christian, Jewish, Muslim and other communities;
The U.N. has equated opposition to Islam with racism. Islam is not a race. Arab is a race; Islam, invented by an Arab, enslaves Arabs, Africans, Asians & Europeans. If we condemn Islam's sanctification of mandatory genocidal conquest through terrorism, we are automatically branded as racist. The intent is to silence us; to shut down debate arbitrarily.
fresh feces
The novel crap is contained in a five point enumerated list of action items.Noting with deep concern the instances of intolerance, discrimination, profiling and
acts of violence against Muslims occurring in many parts of the world,
- Condemns in this regard the recent call by an extremist group to organize a ‘Burn a Koran Day’;
- Condemns also any advocacy of religious hatred that constitutes incitement to I hatred, discrimination, hostility or violence;
- Calls upon the international community to stand united against such events which undermine peaceful coexistence between nations and create an environment conducive to violence; reprisal
- Calls upon also all States to condemn and oppose, in accordance with their obligations, under international human rights law, any advocacy of national, racial or religious hatred that constitutes incitement to hatred, discrimination, hostility and violence;
- Urges the international community to support all international and regional initiatives to promote cross-cultural and interfaith harmony.
extremist group
Extremist connotes violent tendencies. In common parlance, the Muslims who slaughter innocents in the name of Allah are labeled "extremists". Who has Pastor Jones and his Dove World Outreach Center threatened? Who have they assaulted? Who have they killed? They condemned and expressed an intention to burn the book which inspires & motivates terrorists. What is extreme about that?This term of opprobrium, delivered in the absence of definition and evidence, constitutes libel and slander. Pakistan's delegate ought to be sued for libel and so should the UNHRC when it passes that resolution.
incitement
Exactly what did Pastor Jones say that incited anyone to hate Muslims? Exactly what did he say that incited anyone to assault Muslims? Precisely who acted on that incitement? Did he brandish a sword and shout "Crusade, Crusade, Crusade! ?undermine peaceful coexistence
Did Pastor Jones call for war? Did his congregation march upon Pakistan's embassy hurling snones and firebombs? Who rioted? Who incited them to riot? Did they listen to the Pastor's sermon or their Imam's Kutbah at Juma Salat?condemn and oppose
President Obama, Secretary of State Clinton & General Petraeus condemned and opposed International Burn a Qur'an Day. They met their obligations. What more do you demand? Note the repetition of boiler plate from an earlier point. What is its source?ICCPR

2:216. Jihâd (holy fighting in Allâh's Cause) is ordained for you (Muslims) though you dislike it, and it may be that you dislike a thing which is good for you and that you like a thing which is bad for you. Allâh knows but you do not know.
8:39. And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and polytheism: i.e. worshipping others besides Allâh) and the religion (worship) will all be for Allâh Alone [in the whole of the world ]. But if they cease (worshipping others besides Allâh), then certainly, Allâh is All-Seer of what they do.
9:29. Fight against those who (1) believe not in Allâh, (2) nor in the Last Day, (3) nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allâh and His Messenger (4) and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (i.e. Islâm) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.
9:38. O you who believe! What is the matter with you, that when you are asked to march forth in the Cause of Allâh (i.e. Jihâd) you cling heavily to the earth? Are you pleased with the life of this world rather than the Hereafter? But little is the enjoyment of the life of this world as compared with the Hereafter.
9:39. If you march not forth, He will punish you with a painful torment and will replace you by another people, and you cannot harm Him at all, and Allâh is Able to do all things.
9:123. O you who believe! Fight those of the disbelievers who are close to you, and let them find harshness in you, and know that Allâh is with those who are the Al-Muttaqûn (the pious - see V.2:2
61:10. O You who believe! Shall I guide you to a commerce that will save you from a painful torment.
61:11. That you believe in Allâh and His Messenger (Muhammad ), and that you strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allâh with your wealth and your lives, that will be better for you, if you but know!
61:12. (If you do so) He will forgive you your sins, and admit you into Gardens under which rivers flow, and pleasant dwelling in Gardens of 'Adn Eternity ['Adn (Edn) Paradise], that is indeed the great success.

If that ain't propaganda for war, what the Hell is? ICCPR 20.1 requires that it be proscribed by law. Who will enforce 20.1?
- Any advocacy of national, racial or religious hatred that constitutes incitement to discrimination, hostility or violence shall be prohibited by law.
1:6. Guide us to the Straight Way
1:7. The Way of those on whom You have bestowed Your Grace, not (the way) of those who earned Your Anger (such as the Jews), nor of those who went astray (such as the Christians).
2:161. Verily, those who disbelieve, and die while they are disbelievers, it is they on whom is the Curse of Allâh and of the angels and of mankind, combined.
98:6. Verily, those who disbelieve (in the religion of Islâm, the Qur'ân and Prophet Muhammad ()) from among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) and Al-Mushrikûn will abide in the Fire of Hell. They are the worst of creatures.
98:7. Verily, those who believe [in the Oneness of Allâh, and in His Messenger Muhammad ()) including all obligations ordered by Islâm] and do righteous good deeds, they are the best of creatures.
Reliance of the Traveller, o.11.5 lists discriminations against non-Muslim subjects.

-2- are distinguished from Muslims in dress, wearing a wide cloth belt (zunnar);
-3- are not greeted with "as-Salamu 'alaykum";
-4- must keep to the side of the street;
-5- may not build higher than or as high as the Muslims' buildings, though if they acquire a tall house, it is not razed;
-6- are forbidden to openly display wine or pork, (A: to ring church bells or display crosses,) recite the Torah or Evangel aloud, or make public display of their funerals and feastdays;
-7- and are forbidden to build new churches.
If the cited ayat ain't incitement to & the cited Shari'an ain't discrimination against Jews & Christians, what the Hell is? ICCPR 20.2 requires that it be proscribed by law.l Who will enforce 20.2?
It is expected that the draft resolution condemning International Burn a Qur'an Day will be debated and voted on this week. It is certain that it will pass because the OIC and its allies have a majority of seats in the HRC. This gives us a brief moment of opportunity. Let us seize it!!
International Qur'an Petition
The petition linked immediately above cites the relevant provisions of ICCPR, ICERD & CPPCG and the Islamic doctrines which violate them. It prays to the World Court for enforcement of those provisions which require civilized signatories to outlaw Islam.The link is to an html formatted copy which contains links to source texts. At the end of the text, it contains a signature link. I urge you to copy the petition, paste it into an email and send it to everyone you can hope to influence with an exhortation to sign and forward it. Signing and promoting this petition is the best hope we have of prevailing over an existential foe which seeks to silence our protest against its intention to enslave us.
U.N. resolutions are not binding, they lack the force of law. ICERD can be enforced. At the end of November, the Ad Hoc Committee for the Elaboration of Complementary Standards will meet to write the resolutions into ICERD. You can kiss the First Amendment goodbye, because it will be passed, signed and ratified.
Our only hope of retaining our liberty rests in raising the cost of this attack above the price Islam is willing to pay. We must link full exposure of the Qur'an's evil contents to their attack against our free expression right. We must do it now, while it is still legally possible.
Act now if you love liberty and want to preserve it for yourself and your progeny. Sign and propagate the International Qur'an Petition. Copy and cross post this blog post. Seize the opportunity, it may be our last.
