Melanie Phillips on "Lemmingland"

From the Persian Journal:

Hezbollah's commander Hassan Nasrallah leads an Iranian jihadi army that exports terror round the world. And just as it did with the rival jihadists of al Qaeda, Britain ? a prime target of Iranian terror ? is once again allowing itself to become a theatre of the Iranian jihad and a weak link in the chain of resistance against it.

Many on the British left mistakenly believe that Hizbollah is merely another Muslim liberation movement to add to its collection. (The thinking which leads the left to classify genocide as liberation is a story in itself). As a result, the comrades of 'Stop the War' march behind placard images of their new hero Nasrallah; while George Galloway MP proclaimed at the demonstration: 'Hezbollah is not a terrorist group and I am here to glorify the Lebanese resistance movement.'

Read the whole thing here.

1 Over-long, unoriginal, poorly-written, and just plain wrong in places.

Sure, we have had muslims spouting off over here. I believe you have some over there, too. Something to do with freedom of speech, I think...

Pfft.

2 Yeah, it's just freedom of speech, Nobody. The jihadis and their supporters hold these rallies and expound their hatred of everything non-islamic just for the hell of it. There's obviously nothing behind the things that they say on a daily basis. It's all just a hobby - like golf - or needlepoint.

4 Story today in Atlanta news, Katrina refugees who landed in Atlanta are doing better than refugees who landed anywhere else.

We still have over 75,000 people who fled Nawlins and other areas. You want them back?

5 >>>Many on the British left mistakenly believe that Hizbollah is merely another Muslim liberation movement to add to its collection.

The Left is unwilling to see jihad for what it is, and still sees the world through a Cold War prism. They think the jihadis they cheer are the modern equivalent of poor oppressed indians in Guatemala oppressed by rightwing death squads. But the poor Guatemalan indians that I sympathized with didn't commit mass murder by setting off bombs in crowded markets, saw people's heads off, seek to wipe Israel off the map, plot to destroy America, etc. They didn't seek world domination.

6 Carlos, you give the lefturds too much credit. They don't have any such illusions about the muslims; they know who they are and what they are - America's enemies - and that's good enough for them. You, like so many others, have been suckered by the lefturds' propaganda, and believe them when they talk their crap about revolution, liberation, etc. ad nauseum, but what they really want is to see America fall. They are our enemies no less than Osama bin Laden, and should all be rounded up and shot. They are the ones who support the release of murderers based solely on the color of their skin. They are the ones who support those who murder children in the name of "resistanace". They are the ones who have given aid and comfort to every murderer from Adolph Hitler, to Joseph Stalin, to Ho Chi Minh, to Osama bin Laden. Their own words bear me out, but people like you - who refuse to believe the truth that people tell about themselves due to your own humanity and inability to think in such a horrible manner - you refuse to accept that there is such a thing as absolute evil which possesses the minds of people who, on the surface, seem normal in most ways, but who, if you listen to them, will tell you, in twisted, roudnabout way, or plain and fair, that they unequivocally support those who murder innocent people. They deserve no mercy, and certainly no rights. They deserve nothing but a bullet to the back of the head and an open trench in which to rest with their fellow scum.

7 Mr. Nobody,
 
Maxie is right on many points, although I disagree with his method of solving the problem. What I do agree on is that you(the UK) and to a certain extent us(the US) must draw a line on determining what we are willing to allow based on freedom. Under our Constitution, and I would assume under the laws of the UK, these people are not guaranteed the freedom to threaten others, which they clearly do, both implicitly and explicitly. When Islamists and their supporters make threats, they should be deported, and deported to their country of origin quickly, and not allowed hearing after hearing and a delay process. Quick deportations would go a long way toward solving our problems, in that moderate Muslims would feel safe in coming forward and pointing out the radicals in their midst.

8 Fair enough - but that wasn't really my point.

Currently, we have people here speaking out against the war, and in some cases speaking in defence of the absolutely indefensible. But then, most other countries have these elements, to. I never said I liked this situation. I simply don't see why I have to be a lemming.

As it goes, I strongly believe that placards inspiring people to 'behead those who insult Islam' are stretching 'freedom of speech' to the point of utter absurdity - but then, those people are currently being prosecuted.

9 JJ, our Constitution is dead and buried, and has been replaced with a cheap imposter. Things can not be fixed with anything less than a complete downfall of the US government, which, surprisingly enough, the government itself seems to be orchestrating. Maybe the muslims will get lucky and slip a nuke into DC, then we can clean house.

10 Seemonk: No thanks. We like to share. Seems like a black judge in Nawlins is going to free several thousands of them from our jails. The reason. Because the black District Attorney (who fired 43 white workers and replaced them with black workers)says the black chief of police, is incompetent, the black Clerk of court is a thief and the black mayor doesn't act to anything that may hurt a black appointee.

I see that the McKenney bitch has now been accused of having a large amount of Muslim sirnames on her re-election contribution list. She hangs with black panthers. They blame her defeat on the JOOOOOOOs. Her staff makes anti-semitic references to reporters.
Previously, when I reported what the black community in was saying to support Hezbollah. I was deleted and called the normal Nazi, racist bullshit by none other than the posters on this blog.
Seems like I was correct. There is a connection. Again, liberal academic meatheads with the bad case of the ostrich syndrome, educated in academia and hiding as conservatives.
Delete the deleters. Let the truth be told.

11 You're right about McKinney, rooster. A very large number of her financial backers were Muslims from all parts of the nation, and perhaps from foreign countries as well. We need to be vigilent as foreigners are trying to get involved in our election process. And most, but not all, the black community does support Hizb'Allah. But so do almost all the Leftist whites in academia.

12 The fact that the McKenney bitch was receiving donations from Islamics out of the state of Georgia tells something.
Something bad. Could they be using the race card to recruit more black muslimes? Blacks have always been willing to point the finger at whites particularly Jews. Why? I haven't figured out. But having pro muslim supporters in Cities like New Orleans, Atlanta, Detroit who have black majorities could grow into something nasty. I know this is happening in La. Memphis, Tenn. Atlanta. San Francisco. With the large Muslime population in Mich. It's probably happening there to.
Anyone out there live in Detroit?
