Mother accused of starving daughter to death 'banned school from feeding other child snacks when he was hungry'

A mother accused of starving her seven-year-old daughter to death refused to take another child in her care to a dietician despite medical advice to do so, a court heard today.
Jurors at Birmingham Crown Court were told that Angela Gordon banned staff at the child's school from feeding him snacks when he was hungry.
Gordon is charged alongside her partner Junaid Abuhamza - with the murder of Khyra Ishaq, who died from malnutrition.
Dr Suraj Ahmed said teachers grew concerned about the young boy after he stole food from the plates of his classmates.
The child, who cannot be named, was seven years old when Dr Ahmed examined him in January last year.
The doctor, an assistant specialist in community paediatrics, said: 'The school was a little bit concerned because he always appeared to be hungry.'
'He was searching cupboards looking for food as soon as he got into school.
'At lunchtime he would grab food from the other children's plates and eat it and that was a cause for concern for the school staff.'
Weighing 22kg, the boy was below the average weight for his age.
Dr Ahmed said: 'I pointed this out to (Gordon) and said that he appeared not to be getting enough calories. I suggested that he might benefit from seeing a dietician but she was not keen on that. She was against it.
'She felt he was getting an adequate amount of calories at home and she didn't want the school to give him any snacks without her permission.'
Another medic who treated the boy at Birmingham's City Hospital after Khyra's death on May 17 last year said he had appeared 'obsessed' with food.
Dr Simil Bhimsaria said: 'He would approach anyone and ask for food all the time. He appeared quite obsessed with food throughout the time of his stay in hospital.'
Today a pathologist who attended a second post-mortem examination on Khyra's body on June 4 last year spoke of his shock at seeing her emaciated body.
Dr Roger Malcolmson told jurors that he had never seen such a high level of fat loss as that suffered by Khyra before her death.
Dr Malcolmson said he believed Khyra died from a bacterial infection but that the 'ultimate cause' of her death was malnutrition.
He told the jury: 'Taking everything into consideration, she was severely malnourished.
'I have never seen a similar case before. I believe in this case that the infection that caused Khyra's death was inevitably caused by her malnutrition.'
Dr Malcolmson added that there was no other 'credible or conceivable' natural cause of death.
Gordon, 34, and 30-year-old Abuhamza, both of Leyton Road, Handsworth, deny murder.
Abuhamza has pleaded guilty to cruelty charges relating to five children in his care and control.
Gordon denies the charges of child cruelty, which are alleged to have been committed between December 2007 and May 17 2008.

What is it with muslims starving their kids?

Scuffles as extremist Muslim group orders men and women to be segregated at public meeting

Douglas Murray and Anjem Choudary confront each other after the South Place Ethical Society banned the pracher's group, Al Muhajiroun from the hall.

A public debate organised by banned Islamic sect Al Muhajiroun was cancelled today after an angry confrontation broke out over the segregation of men and women.
Management at the meeting's venue said 'fundamentalist thugs' forced the event to be called off after they physically prevented men and women sitting together.
Giles Enders, Chairman of the South Place Ethical Society, which runs Conway Hall in Holborn, London, said scuffles broke out over the group's heavy-handed approach.
The meeting came as the group's new leader, Anjem Choudary, issued a challenge to the Government to ban the group after it emerged it was reforming.
Al Muhajiroun has sparked controversy after he said he wanted Sharia law in Britain and called 9/11 terrorists the 'Magnificent 19'.
The group was hoping to hold its first public meeting in five years but Mr Enders said the group had broken the terms for its hire of the hall.
Today's debate, called Sharia Law Versus British Law, was intended to pit Choudary against Douglas Murray, director of right-wing think tank the Centre for Social Cohesion.
Taking to the stage, Mr Enders said: 'A group of thugs at the door have refused to let women in. I'm cancelling this meeting.'
He was cheered by a small group of women sitting in the balcony but was also heckled by many of the 100 or so men in the main hall.
Mr Choudary, who sat on stage during the scuffles and Mr Enders' announcement, then grabbed the microphone and after led chants saying: 'This is a victory for Osama Muslims'
But Mr Enders took the microphone back from Mr Choudary and ordered everyone in the hall to leave.
Alexander Hitchens, of the Centre for Social Cohesion, said his group was invited to the debate with Mr Choudary on the understanding that it would be held on neutral ground with no segregation.
He said he was greeted by members of Al Muharjiroun on the door before being barred from entering.
'We were led to believe it would be completely neutral,' he said.
Outside the hall, Mr Choudary criticised British society as 'dirty' and predicted that, within one or two decades, Muslims would be the majority here.
Asked why he was living here, he said: 'We come here to civilise people, get them to come out of the darkness and injustice into the beauty of Islam.'
Mr Murray, who arrived at the venue with his own security guards, said the platform of tonight's planned debate was 'completely unacceptable'.
He said: 'I'm perfectly willing to debate Anjem Choudary and Al Muhajiroun's ideas. His ideas are not difficult. They do not stand up.
'But it's very clear that this debate is not neutral. This was a segregated event, policed by Al Muhajiroun's guards.'
He added he had been led to the event under false pretences by a front organisation called Global Issues Society.
Mr Murray confronted Mr Choudary and his supporters in the street and the pair spoke for about 10 minutes.
Mr Choudary said he had not broken any laws and called to Muslims to join his group.
'We are not a proscribed group and it is not illegal to be a member,' he said.
'That's a challenge to the Government and to the media - we were not doing anything that was terrorist-related in the past.'
Accepting that the group would have to pay attention to laws which outlaw the glorification of terrorism, he said: 'We will have to choose our words a little bit more carefully.'
Opposition leaders called on ministers to act swiftly to implement a ban.
However, the Home Office said a ban could only be implemented if there was evidence that a group was involved with terrorism.
A spokesman said: 'Proscription is a tough but necessary power to tackle terrorism.
'Decisions on proscription must be proportionate and based on evidence that a group is concerned in terrorism as defined in the Terrorism Act 2000.
'Organisations which cause us concern, including those which might change their name to avoid the consequences of proscription, are kept under constant review.
'As and when new material comes to light, it is considered and the organisation reassessed as part of that process.'
Shadow security minister Baroness Pauline-Neville Jones said the ban would be a test as to whether the Government was serious about proscribing organisations which espouse extremism.
Former prime minister Tony Blair pledged to ban the group four years ago, but it was never outlawed while two splinter groups, Al Gurabaa and the Saviour Sect, were proscribed.
Al Muhajiroun was formed by radical preacher Omar Bakri Muhammad, who was later kicked out of Britain.
Mr Choudary's followers provoked outrage in Luton earlier this year when they protested against soldiers returning from Iraq.

I still do not understand why this guy is still allowed to live in England.

Oh what a man! - Anything for revenge

KUWAIT CITY : Police have arrested an unidentified man for threatening to post his wife’s pictures on the Internet website. The pictures reportedly show the couple making love, reports Al-Rai daily.

It has been reported the couple got married when the wife was just 14 years old and there was an agreement between the couple not to have babies until the wife was 24 years old. When the time came she reportedly told the husband that she wants to have a baby and the husband turned down her wish.

When the wife threatened to nullify the marriage the husband threatened to post her pictures on the website.

After the arrest, the husband denied the allegations and also said he does not possess any of his wife’s clips, but later confessed to having them.

A case has been registered against the man and police have reportedly confiscated the pictures and clips from the man which was taken by Bluetooth without the knowledge of the wife.

So he was planning ahead?

Italy: MP in court to defend herself against death 'fatwa'

Bologna, 18 June (AKI) - An Italian MP and Muslim women's rights activist was due to give evidence to a court on Thursday over death threats allegedly made against her in a 'fatwa' or religious edict. Souad Sbai, MP for the ruling conservative People of Freedom party, was due to attend the court in the northern Italian city of Bologna as witness.

"I am today in Bologna to defend myself against a death 'fatwa' issued against me, for which I had to live in fear for quite some time," said Sbai in an interview with Adnkronos International (AKI).

Akrane H., is accused of having issued the death threat in 2007 and accused Sbai of taking advantage of immigrants for personal gain."I call on God to act against you, in a way that he will expose you.

You are a very bad woman, begin to pray to God, leave work for men. "I have heard very bad things about you and you have thus been exposed as a 'massihia' (Christian)," Akrane wrote in a letter to Sbai.

The claim by Akrane is an accusation of apostasy, which under Islamic law calls for the death penalty, which can be carried out by any Muslim at any time.

"You are an opportunist. You use immigrants for profit-making. You Souad, are nothing and you have nothing to do with Islam and have no knowledge of fikh (religious jurisprudence)," the letter stated.

"You have your hair uncovered in the sight of God, and a woman who does not cover her head must be hanged by the hair. God will punish you for the evil you do to people," the letter continued.

Sbai, who is also president of the Moroccan Women's Association in Italy, said she hopes the judge will understand the severity of the death threat.

"Today's hearing could be the last hearing of the trial and I hope the judge understands the danger of this 'fatwa' and the seriousness of this issue," she told AKI.

Sbai said she was worried that Bologna's DIGOS or anti-terrorism police had no information about who she was, or her work in favour of abused Muslim women.

DIGOS also considered Akrane H. nothing more than an anarchist or an extreme-left political activist.

"This is not correct, because they are underestimating the 'Islamic value' of his words," she concluded.

I am surprised she is not dead yet.

Egypt: Court denies second ex-Muslim's right to convert

"... Throughout history, Islam has demonstrated through words and deeds the possibilities of religious tolerance and racial equality." - Barack Obama in Cairo

Tolerance from islam? Really?

ISTANBUL, June 16 (Compass Direct News) – A Cairo judge on Saturday (June 13) rejected an Egyptian’s convert’s attempt to change his identification card’s religious status from Muslim to Christian, the second failed attempt to exercise constitutionally guaranteed religious freedom by a Muslim-born convert to Christianity.

For Maher El-Gohary, who has been attacked on the street, subjected to death threats and driven into hiding as a result of opening his case 10 months ago, Saturday’s outcome provided nothing in the way of consolation.

“I am disappointed with what happened and shocked with the decision, because I went to great lengths and through a great deal of hardship,” he said.

El-Gohary follows Mohammed Ahmed Hegazy as only the second Muslim-born convert in Egypt to request such a change. El-Gohary filed suit against the Ministry of the Interior for rejecting his application in August last year.

In contrast to their angry chants and threats in previous hearings, lawyers representing the government sat quietly as Judge Hamdy Yasin read his decision in a session that lasted no more than 10 minutes, according to one of El-Gohary’s lawyers, Nabil Ghobreyal.

The judge rejected El-Gohary’s application even though the convert provided a baptism certificate and a letter of acceptance into the Coptic Orthodox Church that the judge had demanded.

“The judge said he will not accept the [baptism] certificate from Cyprus or the letter from Father Matthias [Nasr Manqarious],” said Ghobreyal. “Even if he gets a letter from the pope, the judge said he would not accept it, because the remit of the church is to deal with Christians, not to deal with Muslims who convert to Christianity; this is outside their remit.”

El-Gohary sounded perplexed and frustrated as he spoke by telephone with Compass about the verdict.

“The judge asked for letters of acceptance and baptism,” he said. “It was really not easy to get them, in fact it was very hard, but if he was not going to use these things, why did he ask for them in the first place? We complied with everything and got it for him, and then it was refused.

What was the point of all this?”...

The judge had no intention of ever allowing this.

Poland: Muslims refuse to pray for Poland, demand rights

It is, or was, standard practice to pray for the caliph (or sultan) during the Friday khutba. But in Poland, Muslims refuse to pray for his infidel counterpart or the nation they preside in -- which of course does not slow them down from making demands for more rights and recognition from the same. "Polish Muslims call for change in law to recognise Islamic weddings" from Earth Times, June 17 (thanks to Jeffrey Imm):

Warsaw - Polish Muslims want to change a 1936 law that requires them to pray for Poland and the country's president, Polish Radio reported Wednesday. The Muslim community also want days off for Islamic religious holidays, in the predominantly Catholic country, and to recognise weddings in mosques.

The current law requires all Polish Muslims to mention the Republic of Poland and the president during Friday prayers, and regulates relations between the state and the Muslim Religious Association.

"A Muslim religious wedding still doesn't have civil effects," said Pawel Borecki, of the Religious Law faculty at the University of Warsaw. "Followers of Islam also still do not have a guaranteed right to celebrate their holidays."

Poland's Foreign Ministry is currently working with Polish Muslims on a draft bill that will abolish the required prayer for Poland and change the legal status of the country's Muslims.

The new law would allow Muslims to take days off for religious holidays and would make a marriage in a mosque equal to a civil marriage, reported the broadcaster TVP Info.

Settlements of Poland's first Muslims date back to the 14th century, when Tatars made their home in the Poland-Lithuania Commonwealth and practiced Islam freely in exchange for military service.

Today most estimate there are some 30,000 Muslims in Poland including some 2,000 Tatars. Muslims make up less than 0.1 per cent of the overwhelmingly Roman Catholic population.

They make up less than one percent of the population and yet Poland is changing its laws to conform to their demands? Polish dhimmis.

Breaking news! Muslim countries lead in human trafficking

Actually, this was quite to be expected, as slavery-- whether infidels captured during the jihad, or whether one is born into it -- is legitimate according to Islamic law.

IsraelNN.com) Muslim countries in the Middle East and north-central Africa lead the world in human trafficking, according to a new U.S. State Department report. Of the 17 countries that were given the "Tier 3" listing reserved for the worst offenders, nine were Muslim countries or countries with a large Muslim population from these two regions. Tier 3 countries are defined as those “whose governments do not fully comply with the minimum standards" of the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2008 and "are not making significant efforts to do so.”

The Middle Eastern countries with Tier 3 status are Iran, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and Syria. The north-central African countries are Mauritania, Chad, Sudan, Niger, and Eritrea, all of which have very large Muslim populations.

Undercliffe, Bradford, grandparents attacked

Police are hunting four men who violently attacked a defenceless elderly couple in a “vicious and disgusting” road rage attack.

Grandparents Christopher and Beryl Bell, of Undercliffe, Bradford, had been out shopping and were driving home when their car clipped the wing mirror of a black Audi A3 car.

Fearing the reaction of the driver and his three passengers, 65-year-old Mr Bell carried on but was tailgated by the Audi until he stopped in Pollard Lane, Undercliffe.

Mr Bell, who takes 12 tablets a day for a heart condition, got out to speak to the driver but the four occupants became verbally abusive and started punching him on the head.

Mrs Bell, aged 66, then got out of the vehicle and tried to persuade the young men to stop hitting her husband, but she too was punched in the face and ended up lying on the floor in a pool of blood.

Both were taken to hospital and Mrs Bell was unable to open her eyes for some time due to the pain in her face.

Mr Bell said: “I got out of the car and the driver got out of his car and we were set together. The other three got out of the car and punched me on my head a couple of times, one in the back. I turned round and I saw my wife on the floor – blood was gushing out of a cut in her nose and a big bump on her head and someone shouted ‘get the police’ and all of a sudden they have jumped in their car and off they went.”

Mr Bell said the men were “shouting like hell” but added that he could not make out what they were saying.

Mrs Bell said: “I was scared but I just saw them all hitting him so I got out and tried to stop it and got punched in the face, then I was on the floor in a load of blood.

“I wasn’t unconscious but my head was going round like I was in a daze.”

Detective Inspector Sean Duggan, of Bradford South Police, who yesterday revealed the details of the attack, said: “This is a particularly violent attack on two vulnerable old people going about their daily business. Four people who are much younger than them and bigger in stature have got out of the vehicle and attacked them quite violently.

“I accept that the offenders in this case are described as Asian, the victims are white British.

However, nothing has been said by the offenders that would suggest it’s a racially motivated incident. It’s just a violent unprovoked disgusting attack.”

The Audi driver is described as Asian, stocky, about 5ft 9ins tall and aged 25 with short, black hair, while the front seat passenger was Asian, aged about 20, slim with medium length, jet black hair. The other two passengers were Asian males in their 20s.

Asian equals muslims.

ACLU outraged over crackdown on Muslim charities

The federal government's crackdown on suspected terrorism financing since the Sept. 11 attacks has violated the rights of American Muslim charities and deterred Muslims from charitable giving, the American Civil Liberties Union said in a report Tuesday.

An expansion of laws and policies since 2001 has given the U.S. Treasury Department in particular virtually unchecked authority to designate charities as terrorist organizations and freeze assets without adequate safeguards to protect against mistakes or abuse, the study concluded.

It said that such sweeping powers, combined with the FBI interviewing Muslim donors and putting mosques under surveillance, has created a climate of fear among Muslims. Donors have been reluctant to fulfill their religious obligation to give zakat, or charity, one of the "five pillars" of Islam, for fear of being arrested, deported, denied citizenship or prosecuted retroactively for donations made in good faith.

"Giving charity is a central part of being Muslim, so it weighs heavily on them that they cannot practice a key tenet of their faith," said ACLU researcher Jennifer Turner, who based her findings on interviews with 120 Muslim community leaders, donors and former government officials....

No one would care if they did not donate money to the jihadis.

IAEA chief gets hit with cluebat, realizes that Iran wants nuclear weapons

LONDON (Reuters) - Iran wants the ability to build nuclear weapons to gain a reputation as a major power in the Middle East, the head of the U.N. nuclear watchdog said in a BBC interview broadcast Wednesday.

Mohamed ElBaradei, director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency, said Iran sees nuclear weapons as an "insurance policy" against perceived threats from neighboring countries or the United States.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's disputed re-election has cast doubt on Western powers' hopes of a new dialogue with Iran over its nuclear program, which Iran says is peaceful rather than military.

"My gut feeling is that Iran definitely would like to have the technology ... that would enable it to have nuclear weapons if they decided to do so," ElBaradei told the BBC. "It wants to send a message to its neighbors, it wants to send a message to the rest of the world: yes, don't mess with us, we can have nuclear weapons if we want it.

"But the ultimate aim of Iran, as I understand it, is that they want to be recognized as a major power in the Middle East and they are.

"This is to them the road to get that recognition to power and prestige and ... an insurance policy against what they heard in the past about regime change, axis of evil."...

Yeah, America is the aggressor. Sure, that's it.

Allah tells man to firebomb Yale Power Plant

Of course, deities of all sorts have been accused of giving such orders in the past. By the "disappointed office seeker" and assassin Charles Guiteau's account, the Christian God told him to murder President James Garfield. The only difference here is that in the Qur'an and Sunnah, Allah actually does call for this kind of belligerence toward Infidels.

NEW HAVEN — A man who allegedly confessed to a downtown carjacking, a Yale University fire bombing, two New York City robberies and other crimes that police can’t yet confirm he committed, was placed on a mental health watch by a Superior Court judge Monday.

When detectives picked up Robert Thompson, 30, of West Haven, and told him he was wanted on a West Haven warrant, he allegedly told detectives, “Good, because I want to tell you about all the crimes I’ve been doing.”

Thompson was charged over the weekend with the June 6 carjacking at Church and Chapel streets and is under investigation for allegedly throwing a Molotov cocktail over the fence at the Yale power plant at 18 Tower Parkway June 7. He told Detective Wayne Bullock that Allah instructed him how to “melt down” the plant, according to documents filed in court Monday. It didn’t cause any damage.

The investigation involved both Yale and New Haven police, as well as NYPD and a federal joint terrorism task force.

Assistant Chief Peter Reichard said detective were still trying to verify Thompson’s claims that he started robbing banks and stores in 2004. He told detectives he did it to show “the system” that he wasn’t insane....

Tampa: Muslim charged for trying to bring knife onto airplane

He just wanted to butter his toast, you Islamophobe. "Man charged with trying to bring knife onto plane at TIA," from Tampa Bay Online, June 16:

TAMPA - Federal authorities have charged a 24-year-old man with trying to bring a seven-inch knife aboard a plane at Tampa International Airport.

Raed Abduhl-Rahman Alsaif was arrested June 4 as he tried to board US Airways flight 1077 to Phoenix and Portland, Ore., according to a criminal complaint.

During the screening process, an officer spotted a large chef's knife in one of Alsaif's bags, the complaint states. The knife was concealed between the outside fabric and the expandable pull handles of the bag.

Alsaif told officers a friend had given him the bag, and he was unaware of the contents. But authorities interviewed the friend, who denied owning the bag or giving it to Alsaif....

"The most important thing that I believe people outside of Iran should be aware of is the participation of Palestinian forces in these riots"

[...] On Tuesday two protesters told The Jerusalem Post that Palestinian Hamas members are helping the Iranian authorities crush street protests in support of Mousavi.

They made their allegations as rioting on a scale unseen in Iran for nearly a decade continued in the wake of the elections and the allegations that the results were falsified. The protests have now spread from Teheran to other major cities....

"The most important thing that I believe people outside of Iran should be aware of," the young man went on, "is the participation of Palestinian forces in these riots."

Another protester, who spoke as he carried a kitchen knife in one hand and a stone in the other, also cited the presence of Hamas in Teheran.

On Monday, he said, "my brother had his ribs beaten in by those Palestinian animals. Taking our people's money is not enough, they are thirsty for our blood too."

It was ironic, this man said, that the victorious Ahmadinejad "tells us to pray for the young Palestinians, suffering at the hands of Israel." His hope, he added, was that Israel would "come to its senses" and ruthlessly deal with the Palestinians....

'Hamas thwarts Carter assassination'

Hamas reportedly foiled an attempt by Palestinian terrorists to kill former US president Jimmy Carter during his visit to the Gaza Strip on Tuesday.

Israeli security sources said they had learned of plans to target Carter and had passed on the information to his security detail in "real time."

According to Palestinian sources, terrorists linked to al-Qaida hid a number of bombs along a road Carter's convoy was scheduled to travel on while in the Strip.

Following Carter's entry to Gaza, five men, some wearing Hamas police uniforms, removed three large black disks and some wire from a sand dune next to a road Carter had used. They then reportedly destroyed the improvised bombs.

A uniformed officer at the scene told The Associated Press the items were explosives.

Security officials said soldiers in a lookout post spotted Hamas forces dismantling explosives. They said they passed on a warning to Carter's security detail.

He says that the animalstinians are treated like animal and they actually tried to kill him. I really wish they would have killed the most anti-semitic president besides Nigger Obama.

Carter, Visiting Gaza, Says Palestinians Treated Like Animals

By Saud Abu Ramadan and Jonathan Ferziger

June 16 (Bloomberg) -- Former President Jimmy Carter urged the Gaza Strip’s Hamas leadership to join Middle East peace efforts and condemned Israel’s blockade of the territory, saying Palestinians are being treated like animals.

Carter toured sites around the territory today that were bombed during Israel’s military offensive that ended in January. He later met with Ismail Haniya, who heads the government in Gaza two years after Hamas seized control of the coastal enclave from the Palestinian Authority’s Fatah movement.

“Tragically, the international community too often ignores the cries for help and the citizens of Palestine are treated more like animals than like human beings,” Carter, 84, said in a speech to graduates of a United Nations school in Gaza.

The former president, who brokered an Israeli-Egyptian peace treaty in 1979, is traveling in the Middle East on his own initiative as head of the Atlanta-based Carter Center, which promotes human rights, mediates international conflicts and fights disease in poor countries. He visited a West Bank Jewish settlement earlier in the week.

Anwar Sadat was killed because of the treaty by the same people that are running Egypt now.

Israel has sealed off crossing points into Gaza and limited the entry of international food donations and construction materials, citing security concerns.

Carter said he urged Hamas to support efforts to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, adding, “they have made statements and taken actions that suggest they are ready to join the peace process.

Haniya told Carter he would support establishing a Palestinian state in the West Bank and Gaza Strip if all the territory captured by Israel in 1967 is returned.

Independent State

“We are pushing towards the dream of having our independent state with Jerusalem as its capital,” Haniya said, standing beside Carter at a press conference.

Jerusalem is the Capital of Israel and no arab muslim should be allowed in. Just like Mecca allows no non-muslims.

Carter’s visit came a day after former U.K. Prime Minister Tony Blair toured Gaza in his role as international peace envoy. Blair refrained from meeting any leaders of Hamas, which is classified as a terrorist organization by Israel, the U.S. and the European Union.

Carter said earlier in the day that he almost cried when he saw the wreckage of the American School in the Gaza Strip and felt guilty because Israel used U.S.-made war planes to bomb the campus.

The arabs were firing mortars from the school. They are the ones that created this issue.

“I have to hold back tears when I see the deliberate destruction that has been wracked against your people,” he told Palestinians today as he visited the school’s ruins in the northern Gaza town of Beit Lehiya.

American School

The American school, a private institution that is not affiliated with the U.S. government, was destroyed in a Jan. 3 air strike that killed a guard. The Israeli army said it targeted the campus because Palestinians were using the site to fire rockets at Israel’s southern towns and cities.

“I feel partially responsible for this, as must all Americans and Israelis,” Carter said, noting that the school was “deliberately destroyed by bombs from F-16s made in my country.”

Carter told reporters he would also seek the release of captured Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit and said he handed a letter from Shalit’s parents to Haniya asking that it be given to the captive.

Carter criticized Israel’s blockade of Gaza in an interview published June 14 in the Haaretz newspaper, saying the Palestinians there were “being treated like savages.” Carter’s 2006 book, “Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid,” irked Israeli politicians who objected to their leadership being compared to the racist policies of South Africa’s former government.

There is no such place as palestine. There are no palestinians. They have a country, Jordan. The Jews need to take Gaza and the West Bank and throw out all arabs.

Christian Murdered for Drinking Tea from a Muslim Cup

WASHINGTON, June 12 /Christian Newswire/ -- International Christian Concern (www.persecution.org) has learned that radical Muslims running a tea stall beat a Christian man to death for using a cup designated for Muslims on May 9. The young man, Ishtiaq Masih, had ordered tea at a roadside stall in Machharkay village, Punjab, Pakistan, after his bus made a rest stop.

When Ishtiaq went to pay for his tea, the owner noticed that he was wearing a necklace with a cross and grabbed him, calling for his employees to bring anything available to beat him for violating a sign posted on the stall warning non-Muslims to declare their religion before being served. Ishtiaq had not noticed the warning sign before ordering his tea.

The owner and 14 of his employees beat Ishtiaq with stones, iron rods and clubs, and stabbed him multiple times with kitchen knives as Ishtiaq pleaded for mercy.

The other bus passengers and other passers-by finally intervened and took Ishtiaq to the Rural Health Center in the village. The doctor who took Ishtiaq's case told ICC that Ishtiaq had died due to excessive internal and external bleeding, a fractured skull, and brain injuries.

Makah Tea Stall is located on the Sukheki-Lahore highway and is owned by Mubarak Ali, a 42-year-old radical Muslim. ICC's correspondent visited the tea stall and observed that a large red warning sign with a death's head symbol was posted which read, "All non-Muslims should introduce their faith prior to ordering tea. This tea stall serves Muslims only." The warning also threatened anyone who violated the rule with "dire consequences."

A neighboring shopkeeper told ICC on condition of anonymity that all Ali's employees are former students of radical Muslim madrassas (seminaries).

Ishtiaq's family said that they immediately reported the incident to the police and filed a case against Ali. However, the murderers are still freely operating the tea stall.

When ICC asked the Pindi Bhatian Saddar police station about the murder, the police chief said that investigations were underway and they are treating it as a faith-based murder by biased Muslims. When asked about Ali's warning sign, police chief Muhammad Iftikhar Bajwa claimed that he could not take it down. However, the constitution of Pakistan explicitly prohibits such discrimination.

Still think we have no reason to fear muslims? They will attack anyone for the slightest infraction.

Killed, a 'Brummie' Taliban fighter with an Aston Villa tattoo

Allied troops fighting in Afghanistan have long suspected that their Taliban opponents include British-born Muslims.

Thick Midlands and Mancunian accents have been picked up from enemy radio signals in the war zone.

But now there is fresh evidence that some of the Taliban were raised in the UK with the revelation that one fighter killed in a battle had an Aston Villa football club tattoo on his body.

A military source said: 'It was a shock to hear that the guys we were fighting against supported the same football clubs as us, and maybe even grew up on the same streets as us.'

The source said the body of the unidentified Muslim insurgent was found with the AVFC tattoo following clashes with the Nato-led International Security Assistance Forces.

The discovery adds to fears the Taliban is successfully recruiting hundreds of radicalised British nationals to fight against the country of their birth.

Tory MP Patrick Mercer, a former infantry commander, said the presence of a tattoo of an English football club suggests the insurgent had at one point been a well-integrated member of UK society who identified with his home culture, but was radicalised nevertheless.
