Interfaith Conference with stale folk- - - - - - - - -
By the editors of Het Vrije Volk
Last week, Muslim radicals and neo-Nazis gathered in Geneva for an interfaith conference. Among them were also terrorism financiers and Holocaust deniers.From IPT News: “More than 100 religious leaders gathered Wednesday in Geneva for a two-day conference entitled “The Impact of [the Saudi] King Abdullah’s Inter-Religious Dialogue Initiative in Disseminating Human Values.” Many of the listed conference participants, however, are tainted by troubling resumes of anti-Semitism, empathy for radical Islamist ideology and support for terrorist organizations.”[1]
The conference organizer, the [Mecca-based] Muslim World League (MWL) is alleged to have connections to Al Qaeda. Reports detail how MWL has provided Islamic militants, including Osama bin Laden and his followers, with financial and organizational help. MWL’s U.S. offices have been raided by the FBI as part of an investigation into a network of Virginia-based Islamic charities and corporate entities suspected of having ties to terrorist groups. Also, MWL leaders have made statements in support of suicide bombings and published anti-Semitic articles.” […]
[And on the participant to the conference, “Christians and Muslims for Peace”]
“Perhaps the most disconcerting participant listed to attend King Abdullah’s conference is William Baker[2] — an anti-Semite with neo-Nazi connections. Baker [the former chairman of a neo-Nazi party, and hailed by CAIR, nowadays heads “Christians and Muslims for Peace ( CAMP )” —translator] claims that he met with the now U.S. designated Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO) Hezbollah during the Lebanon hostage crisis of the 1980s and early 1990s. While Hezbollah was not yet designated at this time, Baker was hanging out with an organization that was kidnapping foreign nationals in Lebanon and holding them hostage — foreign nationals that were largely American and European. […]”
“Baker’s record of anti-Semitic speech cements his disturbing resume. Baker has been quoted saying that Jews are not the “chosen of God,” and that he dreads getting off a plane in New York: “God help me. Why? ‘Cause the first people I meet when I get off the plane are pushy, belligerent American Jews. […]”
And this all just now as the only movie in which Anne Frank can be seen has been published on YouTube.
Notes:
[1] Salih bin Hussein Al-Ayid, secretary-general of the Supreme Council of Islamic Affairs in Saudi Arabia, chaired the third session of the conference. The state-sponsored Supreme Council of Islamic Affairs is linked to the Saudi government and royal family, and is alleged to be part of the terror finance trail. It was set up in the 90’s to control “charity” financing and look into ways of distributing donations to “eligible” Muslim groups. (source [pdf])
[2] William Baker is also listed by the ADL (Anti-Defamation League) as an anti-Israel protest group.
Quote from the CAMP website: “[Camp is needed] since conflicts involving Christians and Muslims continue all over the world. Hatred and persecution often leading to physical violence by both groups towards one another continues in nearly thirty locations worldwide.”
VH adds this P.S.:
Quite cynical, this conference.
Also, the fact that Saudi Arabia organizing it makes it highly suspect. It is well known that Saudi law requires all Saudi citizens to be Muslims, and only “tolerates” non-Muslim visitors or foreign workers for economic reasons, but requires non-Muslim woman to wear the niqab.
The public practice of non-Muslim religions is prohibited and enforced by the religious police (Mutaween), even in private, and the country has two forbidden access to two cities for non-Muslims. Non-Muslim religious materials such as Bibles, are illegal, and non-Muslim worshippers risk arrest, imprisonment, lashing, deportation, and torture.
In short: Saudi Arabia is the apartheid state par excellence. And Saudi Arabia is involved in Islamic terror.
Now the King of Saudi Arabia (“We are progressives by virtue of our Islam… His daughter: “The king is an environmentalist at heart.”) organizes an Interfaith Conference. “King Abdullah’s interfaith dialogue initiative aims at disseminating human values, promoting coexistence of the people of different faiths …”
If you practice big enough taqiyya and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to take you seriously, and even bow for you.

I watched Zombieland this weekend, and thought that was pretty funny, but this...
This takes the cake on pure hilarity. You cannot make this stuff up!
Baron, you are up late (or early).
i'm all for free speech and the right to express yourself in a healthy society but when it comes to this kind of stupidity there needs to be limits. ironically the un don't seem to have the same standards for these people than it has for israel to defend itself from the manifestation of this type of hate.
i recently saw christopher hitchens explaining to a crowd that hamas and hezollah now have a mushroom cloud on their flags with the words 'kill the jews' written underneath.
he was explaining this to a group of australians who think it hypocritical for israel to have a bomb while they criticize iran. he said, that in all the years he has met with any israelis or jews he has never once seen anything that comes close to hate.
Not any surprise for us regular visitors. As Zenster already has pointed out, if they had the bomb we wouldn't sit here typing this now and that islam wouldn't have it any other way.
"Cause the first people I meet when I get off the plane are pushy, belligerent American Jews."
Sounds kind of like an inferiority complex.
From the linked DoS article:
Saudi Arabia
International Religious Freedom Report 2005
Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor
Magic is widely believed in and sometimes practiced; however, under Shari'a the practice of magic is regarded as the worst form of polytheism. There were an unknown number of detainees held in prison on the charge of "sorcery," including the practice of "black magic" or "witchcraft." During the reporting year, the local press reported several cases of arrests of foreigners and citizens for practicing sorcery. The press also reported raids in June to apprehend individuals alleged to be practicing sorcery. The raids were reported to be part of a campaign to locate illegal residents.
Try to imagine what a splendid pretense the prohibition of practicing "magic" must be for the Saudi Mutawwa'in (morals police). The definition of such behavior is so vague that you could drive a legal Mack truck through all the loopholes in such nonsense.
Liberals could be put to death on basis of their Magical Thinking™ alone. Far more importantly, as with so much about shari'a law, this sort of indefinable legal garbage allows anybody with a grudge to report someone and create total misery in their life.
Aside from being barbarous and cruel, shari'a is capricious and arbitrary. That Democratic politicians somehow manage to ignore shari'a law's across-the-board violation of almost every basic human and civil right totally debases their claim to be a political party for the common man.
George Bush II also has a lot to answer for as well. His persistent portrayal of Saudi Arabia as an American friend and ally has created immeasurable good will where none should exist.
As to this "Interfaith" balderdash, it is only because of the political smokescreen thrown up by our politicians that Saudi Arabia can get away with such a flat-out mockery of religious dialogue. This is this sort of barely concealed genocidal Islamic rubbish that keeps eroding my opposition to first-use of nuclear weapons against the MME (Muslim Middle East).
