Über den Erfolg eines Revolutionsschwindlers
Die Differenz von Begriff und Realität begründet die Möglichkeit der umwälzenden Praxis, nicht der bloße Begriff.
Max HorkheimerIm Dezember 2009 sagte jemand über seine ägyptische Heimat: „Ich komme aus einem Land, in dem es ein ungeschriebenes Abkommen zwischen dem Individuum und der Gesellschaft gibt: Du akzeptierst die Regeln, aber auch die Zwänge der Kollektivgesellschaft und stellst sie nicht infrage und kannst dafür mit der Solidarität und Anerkennung aller rechnen. Bei jeder Entscheidung steht dir entweder der Vater, der Lehrer, der Imam oder ein Vers aus dem Koran zur Seite. Man ist nie allein, im positiven wie im negativen Sinne. Die Individualität wird für Geborgenheit und Halt aufgegeben“ (bpb.de/themen). Continue reading “Youth Bulge auf dem Tahrir-Platz”

ShareAs troops aligned with the Libyan interim government continue to advance on the few remaining strongholds of Gaddafi loyalists — such as Bani Walid (where the tribal elders are refusing to surrender) — much debate is still raging over Libya’s future. Will the country emerge as a stable liberal democracy, will it be torn by ethnic and tribal divisions, or will it transform into an Islamist state? Continue reading Libya Burning
Quote of the day (from yesterday)
Anyone who cared to dig through the graveyards of Sudan already knew that Muslims mattered more than Africans to us. The sky full of jets that we dispatched to bomb Yugoslavia on behalf of Muslim terrorists never clouded the skies of Khartoum. But they did show up to bomb Tripoli so that Islamist thugs could begin torturing and murdering Africans.
Sultan Knish (Daniel Greenfield), Remembering Muslim Colonialism on September 11
“It’s damned obvious that we’re all going to breathe easier when [Gaddafi]’s gone.” (Daphne Caruana Galizia)*
It’s official (or “half-official,” in the US at least, now that the nice third “Arab Spring” job is almost done):
“A [US] defense official familiar with jihadist strategy said Islamists likely will emerge in power from the turmoil expected after the demise of the Gadhafi regime and the West will be partly to blame.
“We’re helping pave the way for them” through NATO airstrikes and other support, he said.
About 1,000 jihadists are operating covertly in Libya, Noman Benotman, a former Libyan al Qaeda member, told The Washington Times in March.”**
“Celebration, man!” Another war victory against the US with much help from the US itself (Kosovo style)!
Btw, does anyone remember which state promoted the UN Security Council resolution for a “no-fly zone” in Libya in the beginning? I think I do: Lebanon. The unofficial province of Iran. In other words, Hezbollah (the Lebanese “Party of God”).

Al-Jazeera, leitmedium of the global anti-Semitic mob
While the anti-Semitic Muslim Brotherhood, “Egypt’s largest Islamist group, is poised to win the largest share of the vote in parliamentary elections,” […] “the man who appears to have a clear shot at the presidency, Amr Moussa, has made his name criticizing Israel[,] and a large majority of respondents favor amending or revoking the cornerstone of regional stability, the Camp David Accords;” while Turkey, a member of the “Western” NATO alliance, gives Iran a helping hand in its efforts to “wipe Israel off the map;” and while David Cameron and others are already reflecting publicly on helping the “Arab Spring” spread further (should the Arab League request or allow it), as Pamela Geller reports, Al-Jazeera, the leitmedium of the “Arab Spring” and of its “western” supporters has an anti-Semitic cartoon on its online front page today, depicting Gaddafi as a ‘Jewish animal’.
In April, Pamela Geller wrote about that “Jihad TV” channel:
It’s clear to any objective observer that al-Jazeera is sympathetic to the global jihad, and a strong case can be made that it is complicit in those jihadist activities. In November 2010, ninety-one American, Israeli and Canadian victims of Hizballah rocket attacks filed an unprecedented lawsuit against Al-Jazeera in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, charging that al-Jazeera “intentionally provided real-time coverage of the locations of missile strikes inside Israel in violation of Israeli security regulations, thereby enabling Hezbollah to aim its missiles more accurately.”
The Mavi Marmara Palmer Commission Findings: The Absurd Notion of ‘Excessive Force’*
UPDATE: SOUTHERN ISRAEL REMAINS ON THE HIGHEST LEVEL ALERT TODAY BASED ON INTEL THAT REVEALS THAT A HAMAS SPONSORED ISLAMIC JIHAD CELL HAS INFILTRATED ISRAEL TO COMMIT A MAJOR TERRORIST ATTACK.
It appears that the publication of the United Nations’ Palmer Commission findings on the Mavi Marmara flotilla incident that occurred on May 31, 2010 will finally be published on Friday. The publication of the report has been repeatedly delayed by U.N. General Secretary Ban Ki Moon on the basis that Israel and Turkey have been working toward some accommodation that would render the Report unnecessary.

Not to allow Mohammedans to put themselves and others in danger is ‘religious discrimination’
Which “people,” Ms Caruana Galizia?

How al-Qaeda got to rule in Tripoli
By Pepe EscobarHis name is Abdelhakim Belhaj. Some in the Middle East might have, but few in the West and across the world would have heard of him.
Time to catch up. Because the story of how an al-Qaeda asset turned out to be the top Libyan military commander in still war-torn Tripoli is bound to shatter – once again – that wilderness of mirrors that is the “war on terror”, as well as deeply compromising the carefully constructed propaganda of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization’s (NATO’s) “humanitarian” intervention in Libya. Continue reading Which “people,” Ms Caruana Galizia?
Meanwhile, concerning another nascent “Arab democracy”…
MK [Member of the Knesset – the Israeli parliament] Aryeh Eldad (National Union) has filed a parliamentary query in which he asks Defense Minister Ehud Barak why the IDF [Israeli Defence Forces] is ignoring testimony about Egyptian soldiers’ involvement in the murderous terror attacks near Eilat.
Several civilian eyewitnesses have said in press interviews that Egyptian soldiers were involved in the attacks. They said that they saw people in military fatigues shooting at them from within the Egyptian military positions, or right next to them.

Btw, Maltese Foreign Minister Tonio Borg just cannot stop offending Israel (among other states including Malta):
“Libyan Freedom”: Some more details about William Hague’s, Daphne Caruana Galizia’s and a few others’ allies in toppling Gaddafi
Here are three things Americans need to know about the Libyan “rebels” the U.S. government isn’t telling us.
One: The inspiration of the Libyan war is as much anti-Western as it is anti-Gadhafi.
The “Day of Rage” that kick-started the Libyan war on Feb. 17 marked the fifth anniversary of violent protests in Benghazi, which included an assault on the Italian consulate during which at least 11 were killed. […]
[…]
Two: The anti-Gadhafi, anti-Western forces that NATO power has brought to apparent victory through an air war and not-so-secret deployment of special forces (so far costing U.S. taxpayers $1 billion) include jihadist forces the U.S. and NATO allies have been fighting for the past decade in Iraq and Afghanistan. Continue reading “Libyan Freedom”: Some more details about William Hague’s, Daphne Caruana Galizia’s and a few others’ allies in toppling Gaddafi
Searching the truth
Somebody there, whose motto appears to be, “Search for the truth is the noblest occupation of man; its publication is a duty,” affirms:
Looks like Colonel Gadaffi has teamed up with Islamic fundamentalists to wage war against their mutual enemy, the EU – US.
All that oil money and weaponary [sic] in the hands of those waging a global jihad against us.
Somebody here affirms, instead:
Like the late Iraqi ruler, [Gaddafi] detests Al Qaeda. But expedience is the rule. Qaddafi would argue that NATO, like the Americans in Iraq, left him very few choices for surviving and therefore pushed him into the arms of the Islamist extremists.
But meanwhile, Al Qaeda has established a presence in the ranks of Qaddafi’s enemies.
Washington, London, Paris and NATO refuse to acknowledge that Mustafa Muhammad Abdul Jalil‘s National Transitional Council in Benghazi has a covert Al Qaeda component. They prefer to believe this fervent Muslim when he pledges to follow the path of “Islam Wassat” (Islam of the Golden Mean) in ruling Libya after he is ensconced in Tripoli.
Celebrating the victory of “Libyan freedom” (Daphne Caruana Galizia) in Tripoli (Libya) and in Valletta (Malta)
Like all people who only have the best intentions, these days “the only real journalist in Malta,” Daphne Caruana Galizia, must be as happy as she hasn’t been since the death of Osama bin Laden (Al Qaeda). Finally Gaddafi seems to have left Tripoli, and now, as “Dee says” on Ms Caruana Galizia’s blog, “the mad dog and his cubs” have yet only to be “smok[ed] out” from a few more “filthy cellar[s]” in which they might be hiding now and in the near future. And since everybody else, in a great historical moment like this, just should not worry all that much, but first of all be happy and full of solidarity, another member of Daphne’s blog ummah, “A. Charles,” recommends from the comment section of one of Daphne’s recent posts: “The next thing which people of goodwill should do is to celebrate this victory in Valletta on Saturday.” (Should only, and otherwise be strongly ashamed and hide well, because we have a real liberal democracy here at the time, while under Mintoff that thing would still have been far more compulsory.)

Al-Jazeera: Pallywood dal vivo a sostegno dello jihad in Libia
Dal sito LibyanFriends.com (con alcune correzioni ortografiche, grammaticali e di punteggiatura):
Siamo un gruppo di italiani tornati dalla Libia il 10 agosto. Di una cosa eravamo certi: che nessun manipolo di ribelli avrebbe potuto attaccare Tripoli senza che venisse distrutto prima di varcare le soglie della città, nonostante la Nato potesse aiutarli con bombardamenti mirati una avanzata di forze miste, ben addestrate, armate e sovvenzionate dalla Nato stessa… sarebbe stata molto difficile, non conoscevamo però o non credevamo possibile che il popolo di Tripoli sarebbe stato drogato e reso inefficiente dalle mirabolanti menzogne mediatiche della regia Nato/Al Jazeera.

On occasion of Malta’s recognition of the Libyan “transitional council as Libyan government” and Iran’s simultaneous congratulations to the “rebels”…
… for now, just one quote from Israel:
IN a knee jerk reflexive action, western pundits have a habit of applauding without understanding the players involved. While surely the average Joe or Jane are thrilled with Qadafi’s ouster, they have every reason to be afraid-very afraid-of the backers behind the ‘rebels’. These so called opponents are Islamic to their core. In fact, their backers have already posted a framework for a new Libyan Constitution. Guess what? Sharia is its CORE doctrinal law.
Not to be a spoil sport, but the pre-jubilation of many Jeffersonian Democrats, when the Shah was ousted, was decidedly premature and is eerily similar to the upheavels we are witnessing. History DOES repeat itself. Continue reading On occasion of Malta’s recognition of the Libyan “transitional council as Libyan government” and Iran’s simultaneous congratulations to the “rebels”…
Quote of the day (from yesterday)
иконографияКартини“No country can win a war that is fought ‘defensively’. ‘Tit for tats’ don’t work. Limited operations and hits against the enemy do not work. Israel must go on a full scale attack against its enemies. The Defense Minister needs to be fired, and a Minister of War needs to be appointed. A minister of war that will lead the country to fight as is needed, until the enemies of Israel are crippled beyond repair, until THEY and the populations that support them, beg Israel for peace, and not the other way around.”
