Religion of Peace but not Love, Baby: "Swine, infidels, fornicators" Tie the Knot in 'Hate' Ceremony Courtesy of Muslim Maldives
I give the relationship of any infidel couple that gets married in a Muslim country two five years max. As for this wretched story, it's good to know what they are really thinking as opposed to what they say to our faces.
Unwitting Western couple mocked as 'infidel' and 'swine' by 'minister' during foreign language wedding ceremony at luxury Maldives resort Daily Mail (hat tip Danielle)But this hapless pair were instead humiliated when the man presiding over the ceremony took advantage of the language barrier to publicly brand them 'pigs' and 'infidels'.
The supposedly spiritual service was captured on video and beamed around the world via YouTube.
Read more here.
There is a dispute whether or not the local Maldivians support their government's tourist campaign. This past week a British couple posted their wedding video online only to discover that instead of receiving the local blessing ceremony which they paid $1350 for at their resort, the officiant hurled abuse at them. He called them, "swine, infidels, fornicators and atheists." He went onto to call their future children bastards. The ceremony concluded with the locals helping the bride to plant a coconut palm but it too was ruined by the obscene comments about her bust line.
As you probably know, the nation of the Maldives is located in the Indian Ocean. Its main industry is tourism. It is also run under Sharia law. Yes, they tolerate Western dress from the tourists but they don't allow you to bring your own Bible or unapproved book. This recent incident could significantly impact their bottom line.
Police in the Maldives have arrested a marriage celebrant who abused a foreign couple as "swine" and "infidels" during a luxury ceremony in the holiday paradise, an official said today.
Maldivian police spokesman Ahmed Shiyam said the celebrant, who conducted the ceremony in the local language at an upmarket resort fringed by white sand and turquoise water, had been arrested with another hotel employee on Thursday.
A video of the ceremony, during which the hapless couple are taunted and subjected to a series of insulting and religious-tinged abuse, was posted on YouTube and has sparked fears for the country's tourism-dependent economy.
After explaining the ceremony in English, the group stands and the 'minister' starts chanting in Dhivehi. Unfortunately for the happy couple, he is insulting them
Oblivious: The couple are unaware that they are being insulted during the ceremony that was conducted in the traditional Maldivian tongue of Dhivehi
In the 15-minute clip, employees at the Vilu Reef Beach and Spa resort abuse the couple in their native Dhivehi tongue.
The hotel's food and beverage manager Hussein Didi is heard hurling insults at the pair as he conducts the service pretending to be the celebrant. He even declares their marriage to be illegal.
At one point he is heard reading verbatim from a script which, on closer inspection, is a document outlining staff employment regulations.
At the end of the 'service' the couple plant a coconut tree as Hussein Didi - who conducted the ceremony - and his crew make rude remarks about the bride's breasts
Chanting in a tone favoured by religious scholars, Didi says: 'You are swine. The children that you bear from this marriage will all be b****** swine.
'Your marriage is not a valid one. You are not the kind of people who can have a valid marriage.
'One of you is an infidel. The other, too, is an infidel and, we have reason to believe, an atheist, who does not even believe in an infidel religion.' The unfortunate woman, wearing a white dress, and her husband, also in white, smile at each other lovingly and remain oblivious as Didi calls for the marriage to be enshrined in Islamic law.
Despite more than ten employees watching, none of them attempts to stop the event and some even take photographs.
As the bride bends down to plant a coconut tree, a man shouts: 'Can see her breasts.'
Another responds saying: 'My beard has gone grey watching those things… I have seen so many of them now that I don't even want to look any more when I see them.'

Muslim Country Politics: Chop Off Christian Professor's Hand, Win Local Election
If he chops off both hands, he'll have 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in his sights.
Backstory here at Atlas: Muslims chop off hands of Christian professor who put "defamatory" question on exam...
Sharia (Islamic Law): Jihadis chopped hand of Christian Professor ...
It's the sharia.
More moderates in action, peace, tolerance, interfaith "dialogue":
The prospects for a democracy to succeed in upholding human rights and a free society are ultimately only as good as the values that inform those who participate in it. An update on this story. "Kerala man accused of chopping hand wins poll," from the Press Trust of India, October 28 (thanks to GS):
Thiruvananthapuram: Contesting from prison, an accused in the sensational case of chopping off the hand of Thodupuzha Newman college lecturer TJ Joseph, has won from a block panchayat division in Ernakulam in the civic body elections.
Anas won from the Vanchinad division of Vazhakkulam block in Ernakulam district on a ticket of Socialist Democratic Party of India (SDPI), political arm of Popular Front of India (PFI), whose activists were allegedly behind the attack on Joseph for preparing a question paper containing blasphemous references to Prophet Mohammed.
Whose prophet?
Joseph was then fired in addition to being maimed.
Anas, now in judicial custody and lodged in the Viyyur central jail in connection with the case, won from the division defeating the nearest UDF candidate by a margin of more than 1,000 votes, while the LDF candidate came third.
The accused, who contested the seat after getting permission of the local court, could neither campaign for the poll nor cast his vote. Anas is the 47th accused in the case.
Joe Sestak: The CAIRdidate
Do you want Muslim Brotherhood operatives serving in the Congress? Sestak is in the pocket of Hamas-linked Muslim Brotherhood CAIR, and I have been reporting on this evil axis since 2007. He is lying about his ties to CAIR. What does that tell you?

2nd Sestak scandal days before election
Unindicted terrorist co-conspirator leader claims to have hosted home fundraiser for Democrat
Since his election to the House in 2006, Democratic Senate candidate Joe Sestak has fended off strong criticism of his relationship with the Council on American-Islamic Relations, a federally designated terrorist co-conspirator shown by FBI evidence to be a front for the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas.Now in a tight race with Republican Pat Toomey for Sen. Arlen Specter's open seat, a report asserting Sestak was caught in a lie – denying that he was ever in the home of the director of CAIR's Pennsylvania chapter for a fundraiser on his behalf – has resurfaced.
CAIR-PA's Iftekhar Hussain affirmed to WND's Aaron Klein yesterday in a recorded interview for Klein's WABC radio show that he hosted a fundraiser for Sestak during the 2006 congressional campaign.
But in an April 9, 2007, radio interview with WPHT's Dom Giordano in Philadelphia, Sestak told a caller he had never been at the CAIR leader's home. The interview, along with a recorded excerpt of a November 2006 lecture by Hussain in which the Muslim leader referred to the event, was reported at the time by Pamela Geller on her Atlas Shrugs blog.
The 2007 radio interview took place just two days after Sestak went through with a controversial decision to speak at CAIR-PA's fundraising banquet in Philadelphia, and the freshman congressman was seeking to minimize the depth of his relationship with the controversial group.
Giordano played the 2006 clip of Hussain on his show earlier this week, and last night he played the portion of the 2007 interview in which a caller named Brian confronted Sestak on his ties to CAIR.
"Have you ever received any funds from CAIR or have you ever been in the home of the chairman of the local CAIR?" the caller asked Sestak.
"No, I haven't," the congressman replied. "I've been in the homes of local American Muslims lots of times. As a matter of fact, they probably have given me a number of fundraisers ... as the local Jewish community has during the campaign. But, no, neither of the other two."
"You haven't been in Mr. Hussain's home," Brian asked again.
"No, I honestly don't think I have," Sestak said. "I don't even know where he lives."Sestak's spokeswoman April Mellody told Klein yesterday she didn't recognize Hussain's name and was not aware of the congressman ever having been in his home. She promised to inquire further but has not responded.
Sestak was the center of controversy last spring when he revealed the Obama administration offered him a position if he would drop out of the Democratic primary to clear the way for the incumbent, Specter. Republicans charged the offer was illegal, but Democrats insisted it was legitimate because the position was unpaid. Sestak went on to defeat Specter in the Democratic Party primary.
CAIR describes itself as a civil-rights group, but FBI evidence points to its origin as a front group for the Muslim Brotherhood and its offshoot Hamas, and the Justice Department designated it an unindicted co-conspirator in the largest terror-finance case in U.S. history. The Washington, D.C.-based group, which has more than a dozen former and current leaders with known associations with violent jihad, is suing WND and two investigators behind the best-selling expose "Muslim Mafia: Inside the Secret Underworld That's Conspiring to Islamize America"
Rich Davis, a 20-year Navy veteran, told WND he recorded Hussain's 2006 lecture at Grove Methodist Church in West Chester, Pa.
Davis was participating in a class taught by Hussain that was part of a 10-week series called "Understanding Islam and the Quran."
Sestak is now the target of a $1 million ad campaign by the Republican Jewish Coalition that criticizes him for his involvement with CAIR, his support of a civilian trial for 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and his backing of partisan congressional declarations against Israel.
Prior to Sestak's appearance at the Philadelphia CAIR-PA fundraiser, Jewish leaders held a meeting in which they pleaded with him to withdraw from the event. They argued that even leading Democratic Sen. Charles Schumer has described CAIR as an organization "which we know has ties to terrorism."
Sestak declined and gave a speech to the CAIR supporters in which he lauded the Muslim group for doing "such important and necessary work in a difficult environment to change such perceptions and wrongs – from racial profiling and civil rights to promoting justice and mutual understanding – at a time when it is challenging to be an American-Muslim and pass, for example, through an airport checkpoint."
At the banquet, CAIR-PA gave an award to the Muslim TV network founder who was convicted of beheading his wife. The presentation by Hussain and CAIR National Chairman Parvez Ahmed was made to Muzzammil Hassan less than two months after he was charged with killing his 37-year-old wife, Aasiya Hassan.

White House Crack Up
There's a fascinating series over at Newsflavor from a White House mole deep inside and high up -- think 'deepthroat." I was waiting for the bomb to drop, but it's more like Scheherazade ...............
Obama is a disaster. Everyone knows. Anyone aiding and abetting the enemy in the White House be damned. It's America first, stupid. This is why the left is so dangerous.
White House Insider: Pelosi and Obama at War
White House Insider: Coming Soon – Serious White House Scandal
White House Insider: Obama Offering Hillary Clinton Vice President Position
Food for Thought
White House Insider: "President Obama is lost. Absolutely lost."
I really believe the party needs to purge itself of this administration. And I think we will. November is a start in that direction. New leadership will emerge. The White House will be marginalized – perhaps so much so that there will be a Democrat challenger to Obama in 2012.
Purge the party of this administration? You really feel the Obama White House is that bad? You remember that question – and then you can come back and ask me again later next year when this scandal finally comes to the surface.
The scandal in Chicago? Chicago is the primary component – but it will likely start in D.C. – one thing will lead to the other. The Justice Department, and back to Chicago.
And what if this never happens? What if there is no scandal? What if Obama is simply re-elected in 2012 and serves a full and successful second term? I suppose that is a possibility – but not a probable one. They are scrambling to make that happen, but after November, the White House loses its protection. I told you that – you understand that, right?
You are talking about Congress? Yes-yes…without Congress, without the Congressional leadership to quash potential hearings, the White House is far more vulnerable. Remember Lewinski? If the Democrats had not lost Congress in 1994, there would have been no scandal – at least not to the extent that it became. But Democrats didn't control Congress, and so the scandal was allowed – encouraged by those -expletive- Republicans to move ahead. Same thing with Watergate. Democrats in Congress allowed the scandal to grow and move ahead. That's how it works. And now we have a Democrat President, realizing he is looking at a Republican Congress, and he is facing a real -expletive- storm.
You used Watergate as an example. Do you really think Obama could be facing a Watergate type scandal? I mean, something that big? Yes I do. I hope not. That is what is going on right now – I'm trying to explain that part of it to you but maybe I'm not doing a good enough job of it. There are those in the party – the Democratic Party, who are right now actively preparing for that possible outcome and taking protective measures to protect the party. Let Obama go down for it – but save the party. President Obama in turn – at least those around him who are capable enough still to function in that way, are trying to keep the party entangled in the mess, to motivate them to continue protecting the White House. THAT is what is going on right now. And the stakes are very high – the repercussions very serious. That is why I keep telling you to fully appreciate the dangers here. This stuff is no joke. That is why I came to you. If this goes bad, and it could just like that, I can pull the plug. And make no mistake – I will.
I get that – but I'm still having a hard time believing a scandal so big is not being reported by the media. You're wrong there. It is being reported – bits and pieces of it. The story will already be out there and growing before the mainstream finally runs with it. Don't forget, most of them still want to protect the White House. That is simply fact. I know this – I worked directly with them during the campaign. But it's starting to change – and eventually it will break. The barbarians haven't broken down the gate yet – but after these midterms, they will. Look at the Democrats who are now openly challenging the president. Every day another one rebukes the president. That is an incredibly dangerous thing to do politically – it can destroy a career. Ask yourself why they would be so willing to do that. Are they just stupid, too bold – or is it something else?
I don't know… (shakes head) The word is out there – President Obama is in real trouble. They may not have the specifics, but the story of a big scandal coming is circulating now within the party – both parties. So why put your own political career on the line supporting a president who is facing such a fiasco? Simple – they won't. And so you are seeing the separation happening. The party itself is starting to separate itself from the president. You ever watch those nature programs where the herd doesn't hang out with the sick one? You got that poor sick antelope or whatever standing all by itself and when it tries to join back with the herd they run away from it? They'll even attack it themselves if they have to. That's what happens in politics. If you are in real trouble, the others separate from you. That is what is happening to the president right now.
Here is a terrible but telling anecdote:
Ok, I'll just come out and say what is already underway, and to hell with the possible consequences to me. I will not support Barack Obama in 2012. That possibility has left the table for me. Based on what I know, what I have been told, what I have seen in recent weeks…no, I cannot support the President for a second term. My concern for the party, for the country…my conscience does not allow me that option any longer. Obama is not fit to be president. He simply does not possess the inclinations necessary to lead the country. And I don't like saying that. I helped the man get elected. I was in the trenches day after day from city to city helping things get done in 2008…I take no pleasure in saying I was a part of that. And I take no pleasure in saying Obama should not be re-elected in 2012.
That is a very strong statement – anything recent that causes you to now say you will not support Obama in 2012? (Long pause – question is repeated) There is much I have been told, some I know, some more that will probably develop in the coming weeks and months. But you want specifics, right? I understand that…I'll give you an example of why President Obama is not right for America. He sure as hell has not been right for the party. Not long ago, the president took a meeting. He's late, which apparently is becoming more and more common with him. The meeting was almost cancelled. In strolls the president, joking with an aide. He plops down on a sofa, leans over and claps another guy on the back asking how he's been. Apologizes for being late, says he was "held up". He laughs some more. The meeting begins. After just ten minutes, during which time the president appears to almost totally withdraw into himself, an aide walks in and whispers something to the president, who then nods and quickly stands up, shakes a few hands and tells another aide to update him later on the rest of the meeting. As the president is walking out he is laughing at something yet again. He asked no questions of those at the meeting – not one. He left after just ten minutes, coming in laughing and leaving laughing. His behavior during that brief time he was there was described as "borderline manic".
From Part I:
"He's late, which apparently is becoming more and more common with him. The meeting was almost cancelled. In strolls the president, joking with an aide.

" Now I sincerely fear for my country"Ok, you have already stated previously that the president doesn't show much interest in the day to day business of being president – why is this example so bad, or different? Care to know what that particular meeting was about on that day?
Certainly. Afghanistan. That meeting was an update on Afghanistan, and the President of the United States, the Commander in Chief, could give a -expletive-.
Were you actually there to witness this? No, I was long gone from the White House by then. It was told to me though by someone who was. They were there. First hand. They were also left to apologize to the ones left in the room after the president left. Some of these were military. They were not happy. No…that is not accurate. They were pissed. They didn't say much at the time, but word got back. They were in shock at the president's behavior. The country had just lost a number of soldiers the week prior, the public opinion on the war was falling…and the president didn't seem to care. He arrives late, leaves early, appears to emotionally shut down during the actual discussion, and to then start laughing once again as he is leaving…how does someone reconcile with that kind of behavior? I can't. It turns my stomach. I didn't want to believe what I was being told, but I had seen similar kinds of behavior from the president myself, and I can't dispute the credibility of the source. They have no reason to lie.
So is that one example the real tipping point for you in no longer being willing to support Obama in 2012? Or do you have any others you wish to share? Oh, I have others, though I cannot share all of them at this point because they involve some still in range of potential White House retribution. Then again, I suppose I am still in range of such retribution myself.

I do not know if the country can survive another four years of Barack Obama, and frankly, I want nothing to do with helping us find out. The man is an incompetent. The man is a tool of the extreme far left that has utterly corrupted the Democratic Party. The man and those now closest to him in the administration appear to abhor America's history. They detest anyone who does not fully subscribe to their positions. They are corrupt, they are increasingly paranoid, and they are taking this country down a path by which we may never recover.
Outside it's America!
Great tea party up in Westchester. What a wonderful crowd of patriots. One patriot brought me flowers; let me tell you it just doesn't get any better. Thanks, Chip. I love America! I have seen the future -- it's the tea party. We are the boots on the ground.

Pamela Geller
In December of 2009, long before the controversy over what became known as the "Ground Zero mosque" took hold of the national conversation — back when one of the organizers of the project could still appear on Fox News for a mostly friendly interview — one blog began to beat the war drums. That blog was Pamela Geller's Atlas Shrugs, which launched the opposition to a planned Islamic cultural center in Lower Manhattan with a post titled "Mosque at Ground Zero: Adding Insult to Agony."
Neglecting to mention that the proposed center, now known as Park51, is not a mosque, per se, and is being planned blocks from the former site of the World Trade Center, is par for the course for Geller, 52, a far-right, anti-Muslim provocateur. Known for her outrageous rhetoric and her Ann Coulter-like glamour, she was a key voice in spurring on the grassroots fervor that eventually catapulted the story into the mainstream political discourse.
Her website is hardly a credible source of analysis: Geller famously posted an essay by another author on the eve of the 2008 presidential elections arguing that Barack Obama is actually the son of Malcolm X. But as a key anti-Muslim voice both before and after the Park51 controversy, she has had an undeniable impact.
"Ann Coulter like glamour" - woo hoo.
"Hardly a credible source." Few bloggers or journalist have broken as many stories than Atlas. I source everything. I stand by my work.
Have these clowns ever delved into the greatest threat to the Jewish people, Islamic anti-semitism? Suicidal clowns. I am not the bad guy.
Close to 20,000 posts, hundreds of articles and an in-depth book on Obama and they point to the lefty lie about the Malcolm X blah blah blah. Here is the update I posted almost immediately after on top of the post about Obama's radical ties and extremist influences.
The "Atlas says that Barack Obama is Malcolm X's love child" charge has gone viral among leftards and lizards. The only problem with it is that it is false. I am not the author of this post, and I posted it because the writer did a spectacular job documenting Obama's many connections with the Far Left. The Malcolm X claim is one minor part of this story, and was of interest to me principally as part of the writer's documentation that Stanley Ann Dunham could not have been where the Obama camp says she was at various times. I do not believe that Barack Obama is Malcolm X's love child, and never did -- but there remain many, many unanswered questions about his early life and upbringing.
Did they mention the ground breaking story I broke of Obama's Gaza contributions from a Hamas controlled area of Gaza? No just the X man. Asshats.
Oh, and it is a mosque.

Saudi Prince Waleed Against the Ground Zero Mosque
Triumphal mosques make for strange bedfellows. But I concur with the Prince on this. He got it right. Pretty pathetic when our own liberal media and politicians need lessons in sensitivity from a Saudi prince. Sheesh.
The part where he says, "Christians have the right to build churches where they want and Jews have the right to put synagogues where they want" is perplexing, considering this is not the case in Muslim countries, namely Saudi Arabia.
WORLD EXCLUSIVE: Prince Alwaleed 'against' Ground Zero mosque Arabian Business.com (hat tip Randolph)
Saudi Arabia's Prince Alwaleed has said he is against the construction of a mosque close to the site of the 9/11 terror attacks in New York. In an exclusive interview with Arabian Business to be published on Sunday, His Royal Highness also said he had no part in financing the controversial project.
In his first public comments on the issue, he said: "I heard and saw a lot of news about me being associated with it and this is all wrong. We did not finance this thing.
"I say that I am against putting the mosque in that particular place. And I'll tell you why. For two reasons: first of all, those people behind the mosque have to respect, have to appreciate and have to defer to the people of New York, and not try to agitate the wound by saying 'we need to put the mosque next to the 9/11 site'.
"The wound is still there. Just because the wound is healing you can't say 'let's just go back to where we were pre-9/11'," he said. "I am against putting the mosque there out of respect for those people who have been wounded over there."
Prince Alwaleed added: "More importantly, the mosque is not in the best location, the mosque has to be in a dignified location. It can't be next to a bar or a strip club, or in a neighbourhood that is not really refined and good. The impression I have is that this mosque is just being inserted and squeezed over there. So I am personally against putting the mosque over there…"
"I believe that Christians have the right to build churches where they want and Jews have the right to put synagogues where they want and Muslims have the right to put a mosque where they want. But you have to take care and respect the dignity of those New Yorkers who have been hit badly. Ten years ago is nothing when you talk about history."
Several US news organizations claimed earlier this month that the prince had been involved in funding the construction of the mosque.
In the interview, the prince argued that the wounds of the twin terror attacks could take up to 30 years to heal. He said: "For sure, the wounds are so deep. What I'm saying is, it's been a decade right now, and I would evaluate things at being at a standstill. They did not improve dramatically but they didn't worsen. You see pockets of deterioration from people who don't want things to advance," he said.
