Turkish sociologist declares that all children with autism are atheists and atheism is a form of autism
Fehmi Kaya, a sociologist and head of Adana’s Health and Education Association for Autistic Children in Turkey, stirred up controversy when he claimed, “All autistic children are atheists due to a lack of a section of faith in their brains,” and declared that atheism was a form of autism.
“Autistic children do not know believing in God because they do not have a section of faith in their brains,” Kaya said, according to daily Milliyet.
He stated that there are sections of faith in the brain, which are underdeveloped in children with autism and suggested that children with autism needed therapy to develop these areas in their brain. He also stated that treatment would create areas of faith in their brains.

The Backward People And Leftist Democracy
Popular sovereignty and threatened elites.
Lately, “Duly Noted” has discussed the Left’s efforts to strangulate “majority rule” whenever the majority that can be had fails to support its leadership.
Leftist revolutionaries might openly admit to their program or they can pose as “reformers”. Whatever the banner the pirates fly, the real program –not the avowed one- implies changing the way of life of the “masses”. The change is intended for those to be saved without these evincing a desire for their worldly salvation. The plan responds to the higher truth held by the tribe that holds esoteric degrees. Diplomas earned for walking on the clouds but not on the common man’s ground, elevate these redeemers above the crowd mired in its shortsighted materialism.

Former Katter Australian Party senate candidate Bernard Gaynor claims he has been charged by the Australian Defence Force over comments he made about Muslim immigration and terrorism.
Mr Gaynor, an Army Reserve Intelligence Officer, has posted a series of blogs arguing Islam immigration should be limited and in the wake of the Boston bombings re-aired his views.
He said he was charged on Monday by the ADF for bringing the organisation into disrepute and responded by saying it was proof political correctness was hampering the ADF's ability to fight against Islamic violence.
"It is outrageous that the Australian Defence Force is charging me for discussing Islam," he said in a statement.

Paedophile with HIV jailed for having unprotected sex with young boy WINS legal battle to allow him to work in places where children are present
Top judges say there is nothing they can do to stop a 'predatory paedophile' with HIV - jailed for having unprotected sex with a young boy - from working in many jobs where he could encounter children.
Stelios Kimpriktzis, 38, groomed his underage victim online and lured him to woods where he persuaded him to have sex. He concealed his illness.
The former shopworker, of Ivy Leigh, Liverpool, was jailed for three years at Chester Crown Court after he was convicted of two counts of sexual activity with a child, one of meeting a child after sexual grooming and one of attempting to cause grievous bodily harm in April 2006.
Kimpriktzis, now free, was also handed a sexual offences prevention order (SOPO) banning him working anywhere he might come into contact with children under 16, among other restrictions.

Muslims should not celebrate Anzac day
Muslims should not celebrate Anzac day because it is a "superficial,

Mainstream Muslim groups rejected the group's stance, saying Anzac day had nothing to do with religion.
Hizb ut Tahrir, banned in many countries but not Australia, says government requests for Islamic schools to note Anzac day is an unacceptable imposition of foreign values and history.
Australia, both in the past and now, "supports an international framework of deceit, exploitation and destruction led by the US and European powers".

OTTAWA - The first e-mail went out around 11:30 a.m. on Monday, catching some 22 leaders in Canada's Muslim community by surprise.
The RCMP, they were informed, would like them to clear their schedules for an afternoon meeting.
It wasn't a cold call; many of the groups had long-standing ties with Canadian security agencies as part of ongoing outreach on the part of police with Muslim organizations.
Still, those who received the e-mail said it was a bit unnerving, more so when a second message came in an hour later giving the time and location of the sit-down meeting: 2:30 p.m. at RCMP offices in Toronto.
A public press conference had been scheduled for an hour later.

The participants, who also travelled from several parts of European cities, were led in a peaceful and colourful mile-long march by Hazrat Peer Alauddin Siddiqui. This is the fourth consecutive gathering for the biggest Melaad-un-Nabi (PBUH) of British Pakistanis in Britain but this year it was dedicated to “protect the honour and legacy of Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH)”. Speakers included interfaith leaders from Christian, Hindu, Sikh, and Jewish religions and parliamentarians from Conservative, Labour and Liberal Democrats.

Norwegian police warns about coming crime wave from immigrants due to EU border policy. "The police can not handle this alone."
Why do we accept that EU forces open our borders when this is the result?
"With the EU enlargement Norway will not only get new doctors, craftsmen and nurses. Also criminals seek out Norway.
'- We see that more and more criminals focus on Norway. ... - We expect the pressure on Europe and especially Norway to increase. It is naive to believe otherwise,' says Borge.
Some of the trends NCIS has seen is that the criminals are becoming more professional - and more brutal.
'- We have seen bad examples of attacks and robberies against elderly people. ... - The police can not handle this alone. There is no doubt that the police must take responsibility for the crime, but the social problems following increased immigration, the amount of crime cases as well as the extent of follow-up and deportation of people who come to Norway requires enormous resources of the police."Source: KRIPOS - Norway is no honney pot for criminals

"It is unbearable for us that the mosque remains closed for worship," Ahmed Ersin, Mufti of the Plovdiv region, told World Bulletin website.

Warning to UK on its 'open door to fanatics': Russian government says MI5 should watch 'extremist Islamic' exiles from the country in wake of Boston bombing
Britain is at risk from 'extremist Islamic' exiles from the North Caucasus who have been allowed to live in the UK, claimed an advisor to the Russian government last night.
The lessons from the Boston marathon bombing is that MI5 should play far closer attention to these immigrants, some who have been admitted as asylum-seekers, and are seen as enemies of Vladimir Putin, said security specialist Igor Korotchenko.
He has claimed Britain has created a ‘ticking timebomb’ for allowing radicalised Muslims into this country.
The same threat applies to Britain, he said, 'which has been willingly accepting terrorists and extremists from the North Caucasus.

Anglican school where 75% of the pupils are Muslim drops Christian hymns from assemblies
Hymns have been dropped from
assemblies at a Church of England school which has also introduced
separate prayer rooms for girls and boys to cater to its mostly Muslim
students.
Daily assemblies at Slough and Eton Church of England Business and Enterprise College, where 75 per cent of pupils are Muslim, are not based specifically on the Bible, but may make reference to it alongside other religious texts.
All of the the meat served at the secondary school, which has over 1,000 pupils aged between 11 and 19, is halal.
Headmaster Paul McAteer said the approach was to be 'sensitive to the fact that we do have many different faiths in the school', but added that Christian values were 'more prevalent here than I have experienced in non-Church of England schools'.
Mr McAteer, who pointed out that the Church of England describes itself as 'a faith for all faiths', told the Sunday Times: 'The values we support are very much Christian values of honesty, integrity, justice.'

62% of Turks Support Violence Against Women
A survey of 3500 Turkish men conducted by the University of Kirikkale and the organisation "Happy Children" prove what is anyway a truism in Turkey: of course most Turkish men consider violence against women to be completely normal, sensible and practical.Source: DieWelt Via: EuropeNews
28 per cent of those polled thought violence against spouses to be indispensable: it was needed to discipline them. 34 per cent were more moderate and thought violence against spouses was only "necessary" "occasionally".
Altogether that is 62 per cent, almost two-thirds of the men questioned.

Raped, beaten, and enslaved for years – and handed back to her tormentors when she went to beg police for help
A modern-day slave passed between three middle-class families during
years of horrific abuse is suing a police force that returned her to one
of her tormentors.
The terrified and illiterate Indian victim, who was beaten, raped and given out of date food that made her ill, made desperate pleas for help to Hertfordshire police as well as charities and other state agencies. But when officers from the force spoke to her, one of her powerful and well-connected abusers was used as an interpreter.
After she was handed back to her slave master, the victim was attacked, threatened with a knife and told she would be buried in the back garden of their multi-million pound luxury home for spoiling the family name.

Muslims urge Waltham Forest schools to "take responsibility" after Halal meat scandal
What has it to do whit the school if came from a halal supplier , Oh hold on min they will be muslims more chance of compo from the school
Leaders of the Islamic community have urged schools to “take responsibility” and tell parents whether they serve only Halal meat.
Members of the Waltham Forest Council of Mosques (WFCOM) said they felt sympathy for parents after the Guardian’s revelation that three-quarters of schools under local authority control only serve the Muslim-approved meat.
Parents have taken issue with the fact that many of them have not been informed by their children’s school that it orders just Halal food from the council’s supplier, Waltham Forest Catering.

Remember police are boosting crime figures are down !!!
Easy to see why
Offenders have been handed police cautions for serious offences including rape and sexual offences, it has been revealed.
A Freedom of Information request from The Gazette showed 46 offenders on the Fylde coast have been cautioned by Lancashire Police for sexual offences in the last five years.
And five offenders who have admitted rape have escaped with just a caution.
But, after the Government announced it wanted to review the types of offences being cautioned, the force has defended its actions.
Chf Insp Steve Sansbury said the cautions for the offences represented less than one per cent of those handed down by the constabulary, and said it was the “appropriate outcome in correct circumstances”.

Germany: Muslim Refuses to Shake Hand of Female Integration Minister
Doris Schröder-Köpf, wife of the former German Chancellor Gerhard Schröder, has just been appointed Integration Commissioner in the German state of Lower Saxony. In this news clip about the appointment, you see her going around shaking hands with all the various aliens have colonised Germany and the indigenous traitors who have allied with them. When she extends her hand to one Muslim, he refuses to shake it. Rather than take offence at the Mohammedan, she smiles understandingly and moves on.
You can see the video here. The incident with the Muslim is towards the very end of the clip.

Shubbak 2013: Mayor of London plans Arab culture festival
Boris Johnson reveals plan for 15-day celebration of Middle East talent
As he continues his trade mission to the Gulf the Mayor of London, Boris Johnson has unveiled plans for the return of Shubbak – London’s celebration of contemporary culture from across the Arab world, which he first launched in 2011.
Shubbak (the Arabic word for ‘window’) is a 15-day festival, which will give Londoners and the capital’s visitors the chance to discover new talent from the Arab world. It will also showcase artists who are established and well known in their own countries, but deserve a higher profile on the international stage.
The news comes as Boris Johnson visits two of Qatar’s leading cultural attractions - the Museum of Islamic Art and the Katara Cultural Village - during a three day trade mission to Doha. The Mayor, who will be meeting with Her Excellency Sheikha Al-Mayassa bint Hamad bin Khalifa Al-Thani, Chairperson of the Board of Trustees, Qatar Museums Authority, wants to build on the already strong cultural ties that exist between London and Doha and other countries across the Arab world.

Abu Qatada: Theresa May accused of giving in to Europe
HOME Secretary Theresa May was yesterday accused of “craven surrender” to European judges over bids to deport hate preacher Abu Qatada from Britain.
In a blistering attack, MP Mark Reckless said Mrs May, also a Conservative, had put herself before the Court of Human Rights instead of using a UK ruling that the Islamist fanatic must be sent packing.
Qatada, 51, once labelled “Osama Bin Laden’s right hand man in Europe”, has successfully avoided deportation to Jordan to face terror charges for the past eight years.
A Special Immigration Appeals Commission last year used human rights grounds to block another Home Office bid to get rid of him.
The Commission found there was a risk he would not get a fair trial in Jordan because evidence against him was gained using torture.
Its judgment last November effectively upheld a European Court of Human Rights ruling from earlier that year.
Mr Reckless blasted Mrs May’s continued failure to get rid of Qatada saying she should rely on a House of Lords ruling from 2009 which said that even under human rights laws he could be kicked out.

Fatwa to kill apostates sparks fierce controversy in Morocco
RABAT - A fatwa published this week by Morocco's Higher Council of Religious Scholars (CSO) calling for the death penalty for Muslims who renounce their faith has sparked fierce controversy in the country.
The scholars, who represent official Islam in Morocco, said in their edict, published in Tuesday's edition of Arabic-language daily Akhbar al-Youm, that Muslims who reject their faith "should be condemned to death."
The fatwa, which has provoked strong reactions, dates back to April 2012 when a legal report was being prepared by the government, but it was not published at the time, according to local media.

Will we ever be rid of Abu Qatada? Home Office seeks Supreme Court appeal permission
THE Government has asked permission to take its fight to remove hate preacher Abu Qatada from the UK to the highest court in the land.
The move to appeal to the UK Supreme Court comes after judges last month rejected the latest in a long line of attempts to deport the terror suspect to Jordan.
In March, Court of Appeal judges backed an earlier ruling that Qatada, also known as Omar Othman, could not be deported over fears evidence obtained through torture would be used against him.
A Home Office spokesman said: "We have today asked the Court of Appeal for permission to appeal its recent decision on Abu Qatada to the Supreme Court.
"The Government remains committed to deporting this dangerous man and we continue to work with the Jordanians to address the outstanding legal issues preventing deportation."
The Government has now been trying to deport the radical cleric to Jordan, where he was convicted of terror charges in his absence in 1999, for nearly eight years.

outside nightclubs, were targeted in a police operation throughout last
summer.
Amine Sugule, Abdi Rahman Shireh, Abdi Yusuf, all 20, were sentenced alongside 19-year-olds Mohammed Jama and Usaama Ahmed at Snaresbrook Crown Court last week.
Det Insp John Cracknell said: “This investigation is an excellent example of the impact the police can have on organised criminal groups when different departments and other stakeholders work in partnership.
“The operation was borne out of intelligence gathered by Tower Hamlets borough. However it was led by the London Crime Squad, which gathered overwhelming evidence that led to all the subjects pleading guilty at the earliest opportunity.”

A Question of Morality: Germany's Afghan Staff Fear Reprisals
The German military plans to withdraw from Afghanistan
completely by the end of next year. As it pulls out, it leaves behind
Afghan employees -- some 1,700 of them -- including interpreters,
drivers and kitchen staff. The Taliban has threatened to kill the

The Afghanistan of Abdul's dreams was a peaceful and stable country. It was a country whose citizens would not have to live in fear, and where parents could send their daughters to school. And it was a country with decent roads and hospitals. When Abdul* signed his employment contract with Germany, he believed that he would be helping to make this vision of Afghanistan a reality.

Belgian police raid homes in connection with Syrian terror groups recruits
Belgian police stormed 46 homes in the northern city of Antwerp and detained at least one man for allegedly recruiting volunteers to fight in Syria’s civil war.
Authorities revealed that the detained individual was the leader of Sharia4Belgium, Fouad Belkacem.
"We have indications that Sharia4Belgium was sending people to Syria to join terrorist groups there," Reuters quoted a spokesperson for Belgium's federal prosecutors as saying.
Prosecutors had declined to confirm whether anyone else has been arrested.
Sharia4Belgium is known as a Salafist group opposed to Syria’s President Assad.
Foreign insurgents have been playing an increasing role in Syria’s civil war that began in March 2011 with street protests against the rule of Assad. Belgian authorities became concerned after it was reported that about 80 Belgians joined opposition fighters in Syria.
According to the latest study, hundreds of European Muslims have joined the Syrian rebels in their fight against the regime.

Jihadists Hope Boston Bombings are Acts of Jihadi Terrorism
Administrators of Shumukh al-Islam, a top-tier jihadist forum and
primary source for official messages from al-Qaeda, placed a two
scrolling messages atop the forum, the first stating: "Urgent //
Casualties and Injuries in an Explosion that Shook the US State of
Boston, and a State of Panic and Chaos Spreads Across America in
General," and the second giving an oft-repeated statement from former
al-Qaeda leader Usama bin Laden: "I swear by Allah the Great, who raised
the sky without pillars, that America and those who live in America
will not dream of security until we live it as a reality in Palestine
and until all the disbelieving armies are expelled from the land of
Muhammad, Allah's peace and prayer be upon him."

Everything is possible, O beloved one. There are many separatist groups in America, including states that want to rebel against the central government, and would seize the opportunity for the first clear American defeat in the world, which will strengthen the separatists very fast.
However, a Free American Army will not work. Maybe the brigades of "Head and Shoulder".

Closing New York's airspace and the road to the White House and other things wouldn't be done if it wasn't clear to them that the enemy is domestic. It seems that the act is big and it's in its beginnings.

Leaked Council of Europe report suggests Greece could ban Golden Dawn
Greece has adequate legal grounds to outlaw Golden Dawn or any other political organization found to be engaging in racially motivated crimes, Europe’s human rights watchdog suggests in a leaked report set to be formally released on Tuesday.
Nils Muiznieks, the Council of Europe’s human rights commissioner, compiled the report following his visit to Greece between January 28 and February 1.
Sources said the report links several incidents of racist violence and hate crimes to supporters, members and deputies of Golden Dawn, which is described in the document as a “neo-Nazi party.”
It makes clear that legally binding treaties such as the International Convention on the Elimination of all Forms of Racial Discrimination and the European Convention on Human Rights, both of which have been ratified by Greece, give local authorities the right to curb or sanction individuals who support or engage in hate crimes.

Terrorists win fight to cut prison terms
THREE Stoke-on-Trent terrorists who were part of a plot to blow up the London Stock Exchange have had their jail terms cut after lodging appeals.
Usman Khan, Nazam Hussain and Mohibur Rahman took their legal fights to London's Court of Appeal after complaining their jail terms were too long.
Khan, aged 22, of Persia Walk, Tunstall, and 27-year-old Hussain, of Grove Street, Cobridge, were jailed indefinitely for public protection last year after admitting engaging in conduct in preparation for acts of terrorism between November 1 and December 20, 2010.
Co-accused Rahman, aged 28, of North Road, Cobridge, was jailed for five years after admitting having two editions of an al-Qaeda-magazine that had inspired them all.

Abu Hamza 'ally' allowed to stay in Britain after European court rules in his favour
Haroon Aswat, who is believed to be working with Hamza to set up a terror training camp won his battle against extradition from Britain to the United States.
European judges today ruled the move would be a breach of his human rights.
Aswat is currently being held at Broadmoor high-security psychiatric hospital and is wanted by US prosecutors for allegedly plotting with Hamza to set up a terror camp in Bly, Oregon.
Hamza was deported from the UK last year after a long legal battle when the Strasbourg court rejected his appeal.
In light of the medical evidence before it, the court found that there was a real risk to Mr Aswat
But today the ECHR decided that extraditing Aswat to the US would violate the paranoid schizophrenic's human right to be free from ill-treatment on account of the severity of his mental illness.

Jailed: Bogus immigration adviser who ‘preyed on vulnerable’
A ‘cowboy’ immigration adviser who was caught working illegally THREE times has been jailed – thanks to the M.E.N.
Muhammed Shakoori, 62, was stripped of his licence in 2009 but was caught offering immigration advice without a licence in 2010 and again last year.
He was warned he would be jailed if he was caught operating illegally again when he appeared in court in June 2012.
Shakoori ignored the warning and conned two asylum seekers who were desperate to move to Britain out of £1,000.
