Bombs and Dollars – American Foreign Policy Blog – China, Afghanistan, Pakistan

Conservative leader Baroness Sayeeda Warsi, herself a Muslim, faced a threatening situation today, when she faced hardliner Islamists (who are apparently hateful towards their own religion, with their attack on Muslim political leaders), who at first abused and cursed her and then pelted her with eggs. (On second thought, they might not have been hateful of their own religion, since it was a woman they were attacking.)

They shouted at her, threatened her, and accused her of causing deaths to fellow Muslims in Afghanistan and Iraq. (Yeah, because she must have suicide bombed a mosque in Afghanistan, or something.) They also abused her on her attire, and said that she was not dressed like a proper Muslim woman should…

Young and pretty Baroness Warsi, known as the most powerful Muslim woman politician in the U.K., was at first taken aback, as she was alone there to face it…but stood her ground firmly and rebuked the protesters and asked them to come in a debate table. (tsk tsk, Sayeeda baby, don’t you still know that these people don’t like democratic debates?) Continue reading

* After the ban on minarets, comes the battle cry…and ironically European and Middle-Eastern press are both equally disgusting…politically correct, that is…
Middle East press sees double standards in Swiss ban
Europe’s press says Swiss ban sends wrong signal

(Or more precisely, British press says Europe’s press says Swiss’s ban sends said signal.)

* Talking about Islamists, here’s the game plan of the Taliban in Afghanistan…

Most of the serious students and followers of foreign relations have probably read about the Clash of Civilizations by Samuel P. Huntington. For the uninitiated, it is a upcoming clash between hardline Islamic and non-Islamic World that will define the future of the Planet.

It seemed true with Nicolas Sarkozy who called for a ban of Burqa in France, calling it to be a “medium of subversion” of eomen.

Now Europe is ablaze with a different problem. The Swiss government tried to prove itself highly democratic and called for a vote on the issue on banning of Minarets, which was, to the utter astonishment of them, supported by the Swiss people.

Europe has faced the onslaught of Islam since the Crusades. In recent days, the Fatwa on Salman Rushdie, or the uproar on the Danish cartoons of Prophet Mohammad, shook the sensible, non-religious, non-hardliner and free-spirited souls of the average Europeans, who were increasingly with the belief that these “immigrants” to their land can’t intermix with their culture.

In the UK, with Muslims constantly protesting British society, chanting that “Anglian soldiers go to hell”–(but surprisingly not protesting against terrorists who blow up mosques in Afghanistan)–the UK has even created Sharia Law courts for civil cases among Muslims, with the ability to support forced marriage and marital rape, for example.

Now we are seeing a great uproar from the sickening politically correct crowd, deploring the ban. (I am an India, a born Hindu, a practicing non-believer, and trust me I am disgusted with political correctness of the people of our country.)

IAEA, the hilariously inept body of World atomic energy board of Governors, today got filled with immortal fire and passed a resolution rebuking Iran over it’s nuclear ambitions. Though nothing really changed ’cause Iran said it’s a way of “intimidation,” and that they will carry on.

But on a close look, three countries voted against this motion…Malaysia, a Muslim country, Cuba, well Cuba…and last but definitely not the least…Venezuela, of our great comrade Hugo Chavez, who traditionally does what U.S.A. doesn’t want him to do.

Seems Ironic, when compared to the fact that traditional allies of Iran, Russia and China, also voted for the resolution, along with the U.S.A. and major league Europe.

Here’s a nice analysis

Dreams of young (and pretty) Egptians…

Egyptian well educated people, who don’ have any good jobs in their own country, due to recession, other than laborers or stuffs like that…are not satisfied with that. So they came out with a plan.

Those who manage, to pass…gets jobs of mostly…err, as cheap laborers! That’s some plan, eh?
