Vive le Quebec Libre!

From the good folks at Moonbattery:

Hats off to the citizens of tiny Herouxville, Quebec for taking a stand against encroaching dhimmitude and the disease known as multiculturalism that enables its advance.

The town welcomes immigrants, but insists they make themselves aware of a declaration of "norms" adopted by the town council. These include:

At Christmas, children sing Christmas songs.

No stoning women.

No burning women with acid.

No ceremonial daggers in school even if you're a Sikh.

Boys and girls can swim in the same pool whether Muslims like it or not.

Men can drink alcohol whether Muslims like it or not.

No walking around with your face hidden except on Halloween.

Female police can arrest male suspects even if it troubles their egos.

Women are allowed to dance.

Women are allowed to drive.

Women are even allowed to make decisions on their own.


It's remarkable that "progressives" in 2007 would find such rules objectionable, but, then again, their agenda has always been about self-hatred and destruction more than rights anyway.

Our Soldiers Ordered To Make The World Safe for Child Abusing Fuedal Theocrats



The advance of liberty has never been easy, and Iraq is proving how tough it can be. Yet, the safety and security of our citizens requires that we do not let up. We can be smarter about how we deploy our manpower and resources; we can ask more of our Iraqi partners, and we will -- one thing we cannot do is give up on the hundreds of millions of ordinary moms and dads across the Middle East who want the hope and opportunity for their children that the terrorists and extremists seek to deny them, and that's a peaceful existence.

I have learned on good authority that U.S. soldiers were ordered to protect this Shi'ite festival, which featured self-flaggelation by children as directed by adults.

In Afghanistan, our soldiers have been tasked with guarding pre-pubescent girls in prison cells for the "crime" of running away from an arranged marriage to an adult male relative in the name of upholding Afghan law.

In Iraq, our soldiers have been tasked with providing security for a barbaric cult ritual that involves ritual child abuse.

This is deeply, deeply wrong, offensive and unworthy. In both nations, our soldiers are increasingly asked to fight and die for an Islamic government imposing Shari'a Law in the name of a new Islamic Republic.

When the President said the people who attacked us on 9.11 would "all be hearing from us very soon," did you honestly think that meant we would be adopting two Muslim nations and helping to enforce their Stone Age legal system or ridiculous religious rites?

Or did you think we were going to be led to war, in which the Islamic world would learn to its great displeasure that there are limits to their debauchery that are not in their interest to ever transgress again?

This is the failure of this disgraceful President: he has imposed upon us all the costs of war, while delivering none of the fruits of war's benefits.
