So Britain is sliding further down the drain

Waltham Forest, an area identified in the most recent census figures available as having the fifth-biggest proportion of Muslims – 15 percent – of any local authority in England or Wales, has been singled out by radicals behind the group calling itself Muslims Against Crusades (MAC).

“As part of our Islamic Emirate Project, Waltham Forest is to be the first borough to be targeted for an intense shari’a led campaign, introducing the prospect of Islamic law for the Muslim community to abide by,” MAC said in a statement this week.

The project aims to “gradually transform Muslim communities into Islamic Emirates operating under shari’a law,” the group said.

Citing injunctions from the Qur’an and other Islamic texts, it says Muslims in Britain must, among other things:

- reject democracy
- not have non-Muslim friends
- not celebrate non-Muslim festivals including Christmas and Easter
- not join the police or armed forces
- not vote for lawmakers, or stand for election
- demand the release of “all Muslim prisoners in the hands of the disbelievers”
- reject integration with non-Islamic society
- abide by shari’a and not any “man-made law”

“A Muslim must believe that all Christians or Jews will be destined for the hellfire and that only Muslims will be eligible to go to paradise,” the pamphlet says in an entry on why Muslims must reject interfaith activity.

“Any Muslim who opposes any policy in this pamphlet should be confronted.”
In the CNS article a guy says "no way the government will allow this"; problem is, they've been allowing various clowns to get away with acting like this for quite a while.

Over here we have the TSA acting like fools and messing with grandmas because- well, because they're a bunch of fucking morons, that's why.
But there's a bit of blowback occurring:
Court records show 61-year-old Yukari Mihamae grabbed the left breast of the female agent Thursday at the Terminal 4 checkpoint.
...
There's no word why she touched the agent.
Yeah, it's a damn mystery, ain't it?

Ever heard of the Katyusha rocket? Russian system, used a lot of them in WWII; here's some information on it.


DoJ says "We can force you to decrypt your computer's contents for us", various people saying "Screw you." On general principle I go with the "Screw you" crowd. Especially after reading this part:
Because this involves a Fifth Amendment claim, Colorado prosecutors took the unusual step of seeking approval from headquarters in Washington, D.C.: On May 5, Assistant Attorney General Lanny Breuer sent a letter to John Walsh, the U.S. Attorney for Colorado, saying "I hereby approve your request."
Especially with his involvement in Gunrunner, I consider ANYTHING Breuer is involved in to be a threat to the general welfare.


Well, it is a disturbing resemblance...


"Ok, I'm ready, let's go!"
