B'nai Brith Pushes for Web Regulation

Baldrson writes: "Wired magazine reports that in late August, B'nai Brith Canada tried to get the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) and the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) to pay attention to posts on the Islam Way weblog that solicited for volunteers to join Ossama bin Laden. According to the story: "...after media reports have suggested that Montreal and Halifax may have been meeting points for a number of the terrorists involved in the attack, B'nai Brith Canada is stepping up its efforts to get legislation passed to ban such Web activity.""

    There would be nothing stopping Osama Bin Laden using a server located in a country friendly to their cause


    What about bombs? In the middle of the night. When the number of workers is at a minimum.

  2. The B&B wants to ban all anti Zionist ideas by karpov · · Score: 0, Flamebait


    The B'nai Brith used to consider that peoples' will to govern themselves, not to allow massive immigration was hate. If someone questions the fact that not only Jews should preserve their cultural identity, he or she is considered by the B&B a hater. Any political idea that promotes national identity, fairness for third world countries, should be censured and outlawed according to the B&B. In Europe, historians who question the B&B's version of history, will be systematically prosecuted and often jailed.

    The B&B fears the internet more than everything. Because thanks to the web, people in Europe, can learn the illegal truth through web sites located in the states for instance. Now they want us to consider Islam as hate, so they can censure it too. It is probably afraid that people might learn that most Islamic people oppose this kind of crime. It might fear that people could realize that the only beneficiary of N.Y. horrible crime is Israel. That the Israeli military was ready on the 11th to attack the west Back...

    I know that what organizations like the B&B, or many of daughter organizations, like the adl for instance; says, sounds very legitimate. But once they got it their way, they will go on and prosecute their opponents the way they do in Europe.

    Letting our opponents, or the people we think, because we know nothing about them, are our opponents; talk, is far less dangerous than having them shut-up.

    Islam, like all religions, seeks to push something distasteful and potentially dangerous on children too young to know any better.

    Sounds in many ways like pedophilia...

    Religion should be dealt with like sex, perfectly allowable for anyone to do anything they want, as long as it is consented to by all participants, and those participants are over the age of minority.

    The jews think that they own the planet and therefore push their own agenda without regard for other concerns.

    It wouldn't be a problem if they were a tiny fringe marginal group in their corner, but since they have considerable means of persuasion at their disposal (namely the control of Hollywood and american television networks, which enables them to mold public opinion to their convenience -- a good argument for State-owned media which has to answer to government and thus is not blatantly biased like the US media - as long as there is private competition), they are dragging the whole western world into their assinine neurosis.

    They are masters at victimization, brandishing the holocaust as a talisman to silence critic, since anybody who criticizes the jews is automatically branded an antisemite.

    It would seem that only the jews suffered from genocide, but we seldom hear the jews whining about the armenians, Rwanda and all the other peoples that went through it.

      And the greed in which the MPAA is going after DECSS is typically jewish, too.
      Glad to see there's no reason to call you an antisemite. Look, if you're going to bitch about Bnai B'rith being oversensitive about antisemitism, you could at least hide your own antisemitism a little.
      What's antisemititic about saying the truth that jews are greedy?

      You still prove that by citicizing jews, you end up being branded as antisemite.

  5. Outlaw Israeli fundraising while you at it... by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Strange as noone is complains about the VERY succesful Isreali fund raising and recruitment activities.

    As far as I am concerned Israel's actions CREATED Islamic Jihad.

    As anyone who has any inkling of the region's past events would know that Israel is an expansionist, ruthless, zealot state whose objective is to overtake large amounts of Arab territory and drive native inhabitants out. Israelis claim to be the rightful owners of course - on the same grounds Danes could claim England - they lived there in numbers in long-removed past and a few of them continued to until 1940's when UN handed out to them half of Palestine - Arabs had no meaningful representation in the UN at that time. Not that the other states in the region are nice either, mind you, but that's beside the point.

    Isreal's smart PR campaign combined with large numbers of its citizens working for/owning US and other world media has produced sheepish acceptance of its excesses particularly in the USA (just last week while the world was pre-occupied with the terrorist attacks and not looking Israel's way, it took this opportunity to shell some apartament buildings in Palestinian cities and occupied one of the cities. Israeli prime minister announced "This is the time for the strong to crush the weak" according to BBC).

    Add to this old cold-war, energy and other economical interests and you have one-sided, ignorant US foreign policy. Add millions of refugees Isreal already drove out living in various shit-holes. Combine this with great impoverishement of all other nations in the region. Remove hope of any improvement in the future.

    Result? You have vast fertile ground for all kinds of ultra-radical groups. Some of them will turn to fundamentalist religions (Israel already has large number of ultra-fundamentlist Jews in it whose slogan is "kill all Arabs")

    It is guranteed to see Israelis piggy-back on any tragic event and claim it as proof of some great evil, unjust, Arab (Islam, Communist ... take your pick) conspiracy whose only objective is to opress the tiny (but expanding) poor (but whose citizens have great influence in USA's finances) innocent (but buldosing people's houses willy-nilly) state of Israel.

    It boggles my mind to see every second "expert" on CNN last week to proudly claim that he/she "lived in Israel for x years". Some of the people in New York even had Israeli flags in their hands next to the US ones - now there you have complete brainwash if I ever saw one.

    If some of the Israeli extremists have their way in making USA synonymous with Israel (and the New York carnage is proof that they are getting there) we will be engaged in generations-long war of attricion on their behalf.

    We will have body searches before shppoing mall entrances. We will have NO personal liberities. We will have all our commiunication wiretapped permanently. We will loose EVERYTHING our countries stand for in the name of never-ending "war on terrorism" (read: enemies of Israel) with the objective to make maniacal attacks difficult (they will NEVER be impossible) without removing their true causes.

    Goodbye freedom. Hello permanent siege. Welcome to the expanded state of Israel - now encompassing North America - more to come...

    Wake up! These people do not mean USA or Canada any good, they mearly want to use us as a resource to support their wet dream of greater Israel (and Islamic fundamentalists respond in kind by making us the frontline of their war).

    USA and Canada should get out of the middle-eastern mess and focus on humanitiarian and UNBIASED economic-aid efforts. This is the only way to get out of the cross-hairs of the terrorists. (watch Isrealis whine about "appeasment" and bring Hitler's 1930's Germany as a proof of what happens if we "do not rid the world of evil while still young" etc. etc. - just think of Germany's industry and those shacks in Afganistan - now there is a parallel ... )

    P.S. This is an AC post on purpose. Israelis have a lot of power within USA/Canada and could make my life very difficult.

    Oh, and anyone who disagrees with Israel's policies is by definition "anti-semitic" and that is a hate crime in Canada. Goodbye informed discussion.

    And no, I am not from middle east and have no affiliation with any Arabic or Islamic organizations.
