Islamo-fascists murdered Pakistan’s opposition leader Benazir Bhutto after numerous failed attempts to do so in the recent past. If someone still hadn’t figured out how tense is the situation in Pakistan, this explains everything.
UPDATE: Bhutto’s editorial following October’s unsuccesful assassination attempt
BUON NATALE!!
¡FELIZ NAVIDAD!
JOYEUX NOEL!
Frohliche Weihnachten !
FELIZ NATAL!
Don’t be fooled into believing that it’s all about ‘freedom of movement’. Rather, Europeans leaders are handing the continent over to the Islamist snake that will eat them alive nation by nation.
The Euros have no clue of how world affairs work, let alone the reality on the ground.
The election of the new South Korean president might mark the end of appeasement toward the terrorist Stalinist regime in Pyongyang. All signals are so far encouraging.

A peaceful demonstration to remind about the ongoing genodice in Darfur. Italy is a long-time commercial partner of the Arab-Islamofascist regime of Khartoum.
——
The Association of Darfur Refugees in Italy, the human rights movement “Italians for Darfur” and the Union of Young Italian Jews has been denied the right to demonstrate to call on the Italian government, which took over the presidency of the United Nations Security Council on december, to commit itself to unblock the impasse that prevents the deployment of a UN peace force of 26,000 troops in Darfur.
Authorization has been refused for a sit-in in front of the Italian Parliament to promote the request for intervention with respect to the Sudanese government responsible for the slowdown that has prevented the deployment of the peacekeeping force authorized by the UN resolution on August the 1st that should have been operative by the end of this month.
The committee for Darfur initiatives affirmed: “Despite being prevented from promoting peacefully and democratically our demands to the government with a demonstration, we won’t give up in our intention to urge the institutions to do more to prevent, in that region of Sudan, tormented for over four years, the continuous massacre of innocent victims”.
“To this end,” the note concludes, “we appeal to the Prime Minister, Romano Prodi to assume a strong stance towards the Sudanese government until it interrupts the obstructionism that is preventing the deployment of the peace-keeping force”.
Se si fosse trattato di manifestare a favore del terrorismo palestinese, l’autorizzazione l’avrebbero data. Ma chissenefrega di un popolo quale quello del Darfur, se i persecutori non sono israeliani od americani, ma arabo-islamisti, con i quali l’Italia fa affari da sempre..

(ANSA) – ROMA, 14 DIC – Le associazioni e i movimenti che avevano chiesto di potere effettuare un sit-in davanti a Palazzo Chigi per sollecitare l’impegno del governo in favore delle popolazioni del Darfur con un comunicato congiunto hanno protestato contro la mancata autorizzazione alla manifestazione. Nel comunicato, l’Associazione dei rifugiati del Darfur in Italia, il movimento per i diritti umani ”Italians for Darfur” e l’Unione dei giovani ebrei italiani affermano che non e’ stata autorizzata la manifestazione con cui volevano chiedere al governo italiano ”che a dicembre ha assunto la presidenza del Consiglio di sicurezza dell’Onu, un impegno concreto per sbloccare l’empasse che impedisce il dispiegamento della forza di pace di 26mila Caschi blu in Darfur”.

Despite the first half of the article’s headline, America’s economy is far from being on the verge of recession.
Right yesterday, Europeans were again blackmailing the US over the Kyoto Protocol. But Kyoto signers have been emitting more carbon dioxide than the United States.

Here’re two videoclips of the brutal crackdown on a peaceful march organized by dr. Darsi Ferrer in Havana on December 10th, 2007. From Babalu: “you can see that Dr. Ferrer is walking with his wife while the other two people are yelling “viva fidel” one guy is literally grabbing Dr. Ferrer’s wife’s hand and raising it in the air yelling “viva fidel.”
Among the slogans shoted by the hired thugs are the usual “mercenaries”, “traitors”, “worms”, “long live fidel, long live raul, long live the revolution”, “long live the 5 heroes prisoners of the empire” (in referrence to the 5 Castroite spies jailed in the US for spying on the exile community and being complicit in the killing of two pilots of Brothers to the Rescue. In an email exchange with me, Darsi confirmed that many of those in the mob were the very same people who already had participated in previous ‘repudiation acts’. Also, he said the mob tried unsuccesfully to involve ordinary Cubans in the repressive act. On the contrary, many people even tried to join the dissident march and some were even detained. Watch the two clips below.

Dissidents
The regime has to resort to employ the very same thugs against dissidents, as it can’t find ordinary Cubans willing to attack peaceful democracy activists. Look at the black thug seen in many of these pics: he’s the very same person who attacked Darsi and other dissidents at last year’s march.
The thug yesterday…
…and last year (first from left). No doubt it’s the same person.
I know I should have dedicated some posts to different topics to mark the Human Rights Day, but I thought I couldn’t postpone posting about the brutal aggression our friend Darsi Ferrer and other fellow dissidents suffered in the hands of a Castroite mob. Darsi, who is admired by a vast majority of Cubans who had the luck of meeting him in one of his humanitarian works, had publicly announced today’s march against the official tourist and medical apartheid suffered by the Cuban people. And the mob has been immediately been instructed and led to beat these peaceful demonstrators. Babalù has a clip with Darsi’s voice telling about the aggression.

A group of Ladies in White were attacked yesterday by a group of regime’s supporters organized and led by the state security and the political police. The Ladies told of the ordinary Cubans’ support for the brave relatives of political prisoners.
Female relatives of Cuban political prisoners, called the “Women in White”, exchange shouts with a group of government supporters while marching through Havana December 9, 2007. Monday is International Human Rights Day and the group said the protest was a prelude to other activities this coming week to draw attention to human rights abuses by Cuba’s government.

Our friend dr. Darsi Ferrer (whose humanitarian work among the poor can be seen here), has received death threats from a state security agent who entered his house on December 6, to warn him not to participate to the peaceful demonstration he and other dissidents organized against the official tourist and medical Apartheid policy and scheduled for tomorrow in Havana, on the occasion of the International Human Rights Day. The thug told Darsi: “If you go there, you’ll be in the wrong place in the wrong time, because you’re going to kill you”. Darsi and his wife Yusnaimy Jorge were joined by another independent journalist and some neighbors and together they chased the agent, who ran away immediately. Then, he and his wife went to a police station and told another agent: “We came here because we want you to kill us right now, and not in front of our son. Kill us right now, please.” . The agent replied: “No, we’re not going to kill you…for now”. Darsi’s wife yelled “killers!” at the agent. Then, he has been summoned to appear before the military committee tomorrow morning. He said he expects the march to be repressed by the violent mob, but said he’s ready even to die and tomorrow he’ll lead the rally in Havana. Babalu has the full report in English here, including a copy of the summons.
