We need to Fight Islam

Newt Gingrich has called for a sharia law ban in the United States. “Western civilization is in a war. We should frankly test every person here who is of a Muslim background and if they believe in sharia they should be deported,” Gingrich told Fox News. "Sharia is incompatible with western civilisation. Modern Muslims who have given up Sharia, glad to have them as citizens. Perfectly happy to have them next door," he added. He also suggested monitoring US mosques and jailing anyone who visits websites favouring a terror group. "Anybody who goes on a website favouring Isis, or al-Qaeda, or other terrorist groups, that should be a felony, and they should go to jail," he added. He went on, insisting “sharia is incompatible with Western civilization" and blamed such terrorism in part on "Western elites who lack the guts to do what is right, to do what is necessary." Donald Trump has said Muslims should be banned from entering the US.

See the report "Sharia: The Threat for America" by the Center for Security Policy. This shows that Muslims have become radicalized and will subvert the U.S. through Sharia law. Action needs to be taken now to stop this happening.

Arguments about Muslim religious freedoms ignore the issue of whether Islam should even be categorized as a religion.

Because Sharia is a set of governing principles regulating both public and private life, critics suggest that Islam should be considered to be more of a political structure than a pure body of faith. "Islam is not a just a religion … Islam is different," former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum said during a Republican debate last fall. Prominent conservative group Family Research Council claims that only "16 percent of Islam is a religion." Ben Carson, another failed presidential candidate, echoed his remarks in January by asserting that Islam is not a religion, but rather, a "life organization system." Carson also believes that a Muslim should not be president. Taken a step further, as Santorum did during the presidential debate in December, then constitutional rights would not automatically apply to those who practice Sharia. "Islam is a religion, but it is also Sharia law, it is also a civil government, it is also a form of government. And, so, the idea that that is protected under the First Amendment is wrong," he said.

Islamic State has released a new video showing the destruction of Palmyra.

Islamic State has released a new video showing the destruction of Palmyra.

Apparently filmed before the city’s liberation in May this year, the footage depicts extremists smashing ancient statutes and bulldozing human mummies. The video allegedly released by one of Islamic State’s (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) websites, was shot in the form of a documentary. First it shows militants smashing ancient statues on the ground and then come the mummies, which the extremists later bulldoze. A strategically important location, Palmyra had been in jihadist hands since May 2015. The Syrian Army backed by Russian forces managed to recapture the city on March 27, an event largely viewed as a victory and turning point in the war against the terrorists.

1,400 years of Muslim inbreeding has consequences. Stupidity is one of them. Muslims are not "peaceful". Muslims invade, conquer and destroy. That is the way of Islam, the religion of war and death.

German Parliament passes controversial law to protect cultural heritage

The German Parliament passes controversial law to protect cultural heritage

The Cultural Property Protection Law faced opposition from art dealers and collectors as it wound its way through the legislature. By 4 July, more than 48,000 citizens had signed an internet petition calling “for the preservation of private collecting.”

Now probably in the New Order, those who were not careful enough to sign anonymously might wake up one morning to find jack-booted Commissars waiting outside their apartments with dogs and a search warrant. We must fight to preserve our Rights.

German Cultural Heritage Legislation

The cultural property nazis could be coming for you soon

All collectors should be aware of this disturbing development: New German Cultural Heritage Protection Legislation   Germany has passed some massively controversial cultural heritage legislation. An experienced dealer heralds this as

"a sad day for collectors in Germany, and a warning to collectors and the trade everywhere, regarding what is likely to happen when the Socialist perspective of left-wing "heritage preservation" advocates is accepted by government. This is very bad news for German antiquities dealers and collectors. In particular, I expect it to have a very serious adverse impact upon the German trade in ancient coins. In discussing this earlier, I mentioned that I expected one consequence of this legislation to be a shifting of the numismatics, antiquities and art trade from Germany to London. There is already a significant reaction against such arbitrary governmental proceedings in the two most important English-speaking nations".

But will it be enough to stop the erosion of our rights? We need to fight this, but how? If the market moves to London, how will that affect export laws when that is now outside the European Union?

Artifacts Reinterpreted

Pottery discs at a Roman site in West Sussex once thought by archeologists to be "gaming pieces" are now believed to have has sanitary use: "Fishbourne Roman Palace pottery 'was toilet paper' BBC 26 January 2013

The objects have been in the Fishbourne Roman Palace collection since the 1960s but curator Dr Rob Symmons said their definition never seemed satisfactory. A breakthrough came when a French expert examined similar items and found partially-mineralized excrement.[...] "Just before Christmas, a paper was published in the British Medical Journal by Philippe Charlier, who is an anthropologist in France, and he has come up with some fairly compelling evidence that they were used for wiping one's bottom." Dr Symmons said Charlier not only found a "residue" on similar pieces, but also said the items were often found near latrines. The anthropologist also cited an ancient Greek proverb which said "three stones are enough to wipe one's arse". And he found an image on a Greek cup of one of the stones apparently being used. [...] it was well-known that Romans used sponges on sticks dipped in vinegar as an alternative to toilet paper, but this new theory had come as a revelation.
