So there are some Germans want to indict Donald Rumsfeld and others for for war crimes? So be it. There is also room for other indictments- as in the German treatment of Scientology. Brings back back memories- see this and this.
Does Germany need another reminder of what happens when ethical poison is allowed to course through German veins? Perhaps the Germans need to reflect on that. What possible better way to do that than bringing hate charges to the world court?
So there are Dems who want to see a draft, so that the Bush twins might be forced to serve? That’s nice. Maybe Chelsea Clinton, the Gore girls and John Kerry’s daughter can be in the same class of inductees, along with the sons and daughters of the newly elected Democrats to Congress and the Senate!
Violence As ‘cultural and religious beliefs’?
November 10, 2006
From Darcey, at Dust My Broom:
The Supreme Court of Canada declined an invitation on Thursday to consider whether Muslim cultural and religious beliefs in ‘’family honour’’ should be taken into account as justification for receiving a lighter sentence for killing an unfaithful wife.
The court refused to hear the appeal of Adi Abdul Humaid, a devout Muslim from the United Arab Emirates, who admitted to stabbing Aysar Abbas to death with a steak knife on a visit to Ottawa in 1999.
In an application filed in the Supreme Court, Humaid’s lawyer, Richard Bosada, argued Humaid was provoked by his wife’s claim she cheated on him, an insult so severe in the Muslim faith it deprived him of self-control.
The concept of ‘’family honour’’ in the Muslim culture means a man is disgraced if his wife has an affair, said the application.
Humaid was convicted of first-degree murder and lost his appeal at the Ontario Court of Appeal, which concluded his defence lacked an ‘’air of reality.’’[…]
Abbas was 46 years old when she died of 23 stab wounds to the throat in the fall of 1999, while she and her husband were visiting their son at the University of Ottawa.
Humaid testified at his trial he blacked out after hearing his wife’s confession and he lost all self-control.
As Darcey says, ‘Holy smokes.’
Mercurial Truth? “Where are the Democrats now? Where is the MSM?” Or, “Where Has All The Fraud Gone?”
November 10, 2006
Where are the Democrats now? Where is the MSM?
We were told that there was massive voter fraud and massive voter intimidation in these midterm elections. We were told there were clear and provable plans to undermine the results of electronic voting machines. We were told that thousands of lawyers were ready to go to court, with irrefutable proof of GOP malfeasance.
When are the congressional hearings to take place? Where are the investigative reports generated by the MSM?
The ever touching himself Glenn Greenwald is outraged that Bush ‘lied’ when he said that he had no intention of replacing Donald Rumsfeld as Secretary of Defense, prior to the elections. It seems the over excited Greenwald is unwilling to make the connection that maybe the Democrat Party deliberately lied when they made the allegations of voter fraud. Indeed, if those allegations were true, the Dems would be foolish to toss them- after all, how often is it that you can indict your opposition so clearly and defend the integrity of the election process?
What did Greenwald have to say about the DNC advising their supporters to claim fraud when there was none?
Election fraud is a terrible thing. It’s up to the Democrats to publicly follow through and prove their their allegations, right Glenn?
After all, the Democrats making those claim care about the truth and the welfare of our nation, right Glenn?
(We wonder how long it will take to have the TB to this post removed, this time. No doubt it will be another ‘electronic glitch.’)
