Islam is a wicked, vicious faith, BNP leader tells court

The leader of the British National Party told a jury yesterday that he believed Islam was a "wicked, vicious faith".

Nick Griffin, 46, is on trial accused of using threatening, abusive or insulting words intended to stir up racial hatred. He and party activist Mark Collett, 25, were both charged over comments they made in a series of speeches that were covertly recorded by a BBC reporter in 2004.

Griffin, a Cambridge graduate, who is married with four children, went in the witness box to give evidence in his own defence at Leeds Crown Court.

PARIS, Jan. 26 (UPI) -- Employment discrimination is blocking the return of Muslim refugees and displaced people to Bosnia and Herzegovina, Amnesty International said Thursday.

"Ten years after the signing of the Dayton peace agreement, the authorities of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and of the Republika Srpska have failed to address violations of workers' human rights," Omer Fisher, the human rights organization's researcher on Bosnia and Herzegovina said in a statement.

Real international terrorism: How and why the West supports terrorism

Voltaire wrote, “It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets." Since September 11, 2001, the world has changed dramatically due to the climate of trepidation instilled in Western society and the excessive use of military force, which has not been as overt since the Cold War era.

Are Concentration Camps Coming to U.S.?

I've heard and seen many reports concerning detention camps that have been built throughout the country. Quite frankly, I viewed them with a bit of skepticism, not that I didn't trust the source or the information, I didn't trust the conclusions. The claims have been many and include information (including pictures) indicating some of these camps are built to hold as many as a million people if need be. While these types of stories are easy to fabricate and can provide plenty of speculation fodder to spread; the following news release should give cause for concern to even the most conspiracy challenged Americans.

The Truth About Guantanamo -- An Interview With Capt. James Yee

Editor's Note: As one of the U.S. Army's few Muslim chaplains, Capt. James Yee thought he was serving both God and country at Guantanamo Bay. But in September 2003, two days after receiving an excellent evaluation, Chaplain Yee was arrested, charged with espionage and thrown into solitary confinement for 76 days. When he left the Army in 2005 after all charges were dropped, he received a medal. He recounts his journey from Muslim American poster boy to Enemy of the State in his memoir, "For God and Country." Yee was interviewed by Sandip Roy, host of "UpFront," New America Media's radio program on KALW 91.7-FM in San Francisco.

"He is claiming absolute power that no one in American history has ever claimed. This cannot stand," said Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y.

This is a test of the principles on which this nation was founded. The Constitution was created and the government so organized as to prevent the rise of a tyrant. Now is the test if We The People have the will to keep this nation as it was intended.

Texans Bush and Rove and their conspirators in the second Bush presidency have disgraced American democracy at home and in the world with debasements of our nation and our values that have now entered their climactic phase. What part will the rest of us Texans play in this decisive year?
