While Dr Mahathir can rant that the Jews control the world, your more open-minded conspiracy theorist might reasonably conclude that it's the Muslims who have an inside track with the world's media. Here's a classic example of the lengths the American press go to to avoid offending the sensibilities of its delicate readers. What word does not appear in this  New York Times headline about France's gang-rape epidemic?  " A Crime Of The Young Stalks France's Urban Wastelands. (Link) "  A crime of "the young"? Any "young" in particular? Well, if you burrow down deep in the piece, you'll find the word "Muslim" does appear once, but applied to the female victims not the male perpetrators. I prefer my own take on the subject from early September 2002 in The Face Of The Tiger . One point worth emphasizing is this: comparing my experiences in "les banlieus" and the Middle East, I would say the unassimilated Muslim immigrants of Europe are far more radical, far more violent, far more hostile to the west — a perverse tribute, in its own way, to the illusions of multiculturalism :

Dont you mean "Its not a LAT/WP/O (for The Onion, which we are prohibited from even excerpting now...) piece!". Just curious to know if you knew about them...JFK

Thank you for posting the entire gem!

[lainde]

Also pinged his site! For reference and historical purposes it's good to have intact FR archives.

He supports immigration, but with assimilation. What a pipe dream.

Tell that to my Irish/Scottish grandmother or to my wife's Italian grandfather.

Tell it to my ex-boss (the best boss I ever had) whose parents are from Puerto Rico. Or to the office assistant we had whose parents were from Mexico and who encouraged her to serve in the Marines.

Or do I just have a better pipe than you do?

Wait until they (Muslims) start raping the American woman and we will see how the liberals love their political correctness and tolerance.

You know, this is going to sound like an unforgivably ugly thing to say (but what the hell): It won't be conservative women they'll be raping, will it. It's liberal twits who date Arabs to show off how hip they are. It's liberal twits who hang out in the bars in the cities at night. It's "my body, my choice" girls who don't want anyone to think they're racist or uncool, so they'll walk right into these traps.

These guys do set traps, BTW. They don't just kidnap some young thing on her way out of the Baptist church. One guy picks the next victim and becomes "her boyfriend" ... and then sets her up for a real nasty cultural exchange.

"The only reason that the media won't report these facts is because they're invested in keeping up the "religion of peace" mythology.

We're all dupes of a Zionist conspiracy, you know.(blech!)"

You know you might be right about both statements. I read a long post here on FR within the last year or two. IIRC, it included downloading a long PDF file, that included the origins of the USA's current immigration policy. IIRC, and I have a pretty good memory, there was an anthropology professor at Columbia University in NYC named Franz Boas who was Jewish in the early part of the 20th century. His studies in racial differences and cultural anthropology were quite influential and their conclusions "reflected a basic egalitarianism". He could well be the father of current multi-culturalism. Those last quotes were from an encyclopoedia I just referenced, Americana 1970.

The author of that PDF file went on to write that Boas being Jewish had an ulterior motive in that he wanted to dilute the majority Caucasion population in the USA due to the history of European persecution of Jews and the discrimination by WASPs in this country by having more liberal immigration laws.

Jacob "Jake the fake" Javits who was described as being very influential in writing the current immigration law in the mid 1960s was also debscribed as having Boas's sympathies.

Other social theories heavily subscribed to such as the need for smaller families and poulation control have us in a bind with respect to the need for larger work forces to finance Ponzi schemes like Social Security and other entitlement programs.

Maybe all these liberal influential Jewish Social Scientists are reaping what they have sown. I have nothing against Jews, just liberal BS.

BTW, welcome to posting on Free Republic.

You can't assimilate the moon-god worshippers.

Leaving your vile term aside, I guess we'll just have to disagree on that.

>> I wish I had a Hillary, Pelosi or Carol Mosley Braun picture to insert here!

I just went looking for a photo of CMB and all I could find was official campaign photos and those are no fun. However, you may use Jane Byrne instead.

Besides, it is fair enough to generalize about how homely the leftist ladies are; quite another thing -- and downright rude -- to single one out. Carol Mosely Braun is not unattractive. At least not for a woman of her age and weight.

Hillary (another Chicago product, hey) was a very, very slow learner in the ways of removing unwanted body hair, bathing, dressing to look better than an unmade bed, and so on, not to mention the higher cosmetic arts, tasteful clothing and not using the "f" word more than twice per sentence. Even in the governor's mansion in Little Rock, she was a sight to set the dogs howling. Today, I have to concede, doubtless assisted by eight years of desperate instruction by White House beauticians, she looks miles better than she used to. Especially if you like black pants suits.

Leftist ideology is not going to help Jews. It is used against Israel.
As for the US, many of the immigrants are quite hostile to Jews.

Problem is, Muslims don't and won't assililate. If you don't realize that by now, you have been living on Planet X-ray.

[Travis McGee]

Are you unaware of the Muslim belief that the sacred black Ka'aba Rock, (the center of Mecca to which all Muslims pray, around which they walk during the Haj), is a piece of the moon fallen to earth?

Are you unaware that this moon-god rock was the one pagan god Mohammed kept on, so that his converted flock of pagan Meccans would have one old traditional god to contiue to worship? So that the conversion would go down more easily?

Are you seriously unaware of this? Seriously?

[aruanan]

Okay, I went to his website, gave him the hit, and told him that I first heard of him at FreeRepublic.com and that I heard of his website here also.

Use IE and save it in web archive format. You'll be able to open whatever you save at any time and see any pictures that may have since changed links since those pictures will all be downloaded and saved as well.

Leaving your vile term aside, I guess we'll just have to disagree on that.

You better go do some more research. He's exactly right about islam. They worhship a pagan Arab moon-diety.

Their mouths denounce terrorist attacks but their hearts leap with joy.

"Maybe all these liberal influential Jewish Social Scientists are reaping what they have sown. I have nothing against Jews, just liberal BS".

I think the Jews should have their own country due to the history they have endured. But setting up nationalist and socialist kibbutzim in the manner that happened didn't help their cause too much.

These Muslims are still licking their wounds and want revenge. Despite sociological BS, you can't change human nature.
