Muslim Group Shuts Down Conservative Conference
Newsmax.com ^ | May 28, 2009 | Kenneth Timmerman

The manager of a prominent Nashville hotel cancelled a contract with a conservative foundation to hold a conference this weekend on radical Islam, apparently after learning that the group would feature a keynote address by controversial Dutch parliamentarian and filmmaker, Geert Wilders. Muslim groups succeeded in preventing Wilders from screening “Fitna,” his 15-minute movie on radical Islam, in the House of Lords this February, on claims it was insulting to Muslims, and dogged him during a recent U.S. tour as well....

Negri refused to say why he felt the conference would adversely affect the “health, safety and well-being” of the hotel’s guests and employees, except to refer to the website of the New English Review, the group organizing the conference.

Now, how is that the fags picket the Christian churches when it comes to their pro-homo stuff but never the mussies?? And the mussies picket the conservatives but never the fags ??

Is this just another example of the enemy of my enemy is my friend? Or am I missing something here?

The goal of the Islamists is first to defeat or weaken American
and then go after the gays. A weakened fearful American will not fight back and the gays will start to lose their heads over it.

“Muslim threat of violence for showing a film on muslim violence, met with violence.”

“New English Review’s first annual symposium, “Understanding the Jihad in Israel, Europe and America,” will be held at an secure, undisclosed location. Loews Vanderbilt Plaza Hotel succumbed to intimidation and cancelled hosting our event. Nothing else has changed.”

IIRC, a large number of tribal Somali Islamic SAVAGES have been imported to the greater Nashville area. Their violent fearsomeness deters even local law enforcement from entering their ghetto apartment complexes.

Nearby Shelbyville TN is especially infested by roving gangs of Somalis who dare locals to challenge their disregard for traditional standards of respect toward women (while their `walking tent’ women are everywhere causing shrieking trouble for local merchants).

Islam is here, you `kafirs’. What are you going to do about it?

The Islamists and the Marxists (including the gay lobby) work together because they both want to destroy America. The leftists think the Islamists will be useful in destroying America, and then the leftists will create a communist utopia from the ruins. Incidentally, the Marxists are using the gays to weaken the rule of law - to make some people more equal than others and to attack freedom of speech and freedom of (some) religion. The Islamists think the leftists are weakening America, so a weak America will fall to jihad. Both groups are hostile to freedom of speech, Christianity, Israel, and America defending itself, so operationally they have many causes in common.

a righteousness through the faith of Christ apart from the works of the Law, is the only thing that will stop the islamists: have seen the Spirit of God manifests this once in my life, against a muslim, he backed down instantly...
The Spirit of Christ in you, fighting the fight through you...

Censorship may be permitted in Muslim countries. But this is the United States of America, and we have a Constitution that guarantees freedom of speech and assembly. If Muslims don’t like that...GO HOME!

I wonder how many illegal alien Muslims will be on a ‘path to citizenship’ after we get amnesty.

I keep telling folks that Nashville is overrun with libs....most of whom aren’t from here except for the indigenous black quarter.

This Negri fellow is sure not from here I’d wager.

Lowes Vanderbilt sure won’t get anymore or our “night away from the kids” business .

Nashville proper is eat up with libs....most imported due to it’s still decent economy.

It’s 25% black too and hence Obama got nearly 80% of total vote
