All cultures are equally valid.

A Muslim artist has sparked outrage with his depiction of the ripped-apart bus destroyed in the 7/7 terror attacks.

The artwork shows four angels flying above the bombed number 30 bus - the same number of Al Qaeda terrorists who took part in the atrocity which left 52 commuters dead and maimed hundreds more on London’s transport network.

Also seen are scores of ghostly souls shooting from the bus, which was travelling through Tavistock Square when it was devastated by suicide bomber Hasib Hussain.

In the West, we draw the occasional cartoon depicting Mohammed as a terrorist, and the Muzzies go mental, with riots, fires, and threats to the life of the artist.

Perhaps this is our opportunity to show them how un-cool that kind of behavior is? Let’s start attacking embassies, throwing molotov cocktails at passersby, and generally causing a ruckus. Then when the little fuckers start moaning about their “free expression”, we can start slapping them across the face with uncooked bacon.

Our Islamic overlords in the UK have arrested a 15-year old girl on “suspicion of inciting religious hatred,” a thought crime if ever there was one.

Did the young lady in question put out a statement calling for the murder of a minority group? Did she tell the world to take up weapons against a people?

No. She merely burned a book.

A teenage girl has been arrested on suspicion of inciting religious hatred after allegedly burning an English language version of the Koran - and then posting it on Facebook.

The 15-year-old, who lives in the Sandwell area of Birmingham, West Mids, was filmed two weeks ago on her school premises burning the Islamic religious book.

Police have confirmed the video was reported to the school and has since been removed.

Not only is this a thought crime, it’s a blasphemy. She was basically arrested for blaspheming against the Religion of Perpetual Touchiness™. After all, Muslims are just so damn holy, aren’t they?

An Asian gang of ’sexual predators’ cruised city streets for girls as young as 12 - usually white - who were then plied with drink and drugs and raped or abused.

Up to 100 ‘vulnerable’ girls may have been groomed, abused or supplied cocaine by married fathers Abid ­Saddique and Mohammed Liaqat, and their friends.

A court heard the pair used Liaqat’s BMW saloon to trawl for victims, pulling up alongside girls outside shops or schools and chatting them up before a ‘campaign of calls and texts’ to groom them.

Saddique, 27, and Liaqat, 28, plied the ­victims - most from broken homes - with vodka and cocaine before taking them to ‘parties’ in hotels or flats with other gang members to rape or degrade them.

When girls refused their advances they were threatened with hammers or thrown out of cars.

Yeah, just so damn holy.

I mean, with Obama in the White House and all. Considering we’ve banned terms like “black hole” and “devils’ food cake,” you’d think Black Friday would be out of the question. Then again, it’s good for the economy.

Speaking of good for the economy, beat the crowds and do your Black Friday shopping through my Amazon links. They have some amazing deals, and none of them require you to put on pants. Which, after all the turkey you’ll be eating today, is a good thing.

Click the banner above to take advantage of Amazon’s deals, and a portion of whatever you spend will come back to me. Which means I will have something to be thankful for! See how that works?

Whatever you do out there in the coming shopping madness, be safe. The hot toy or the cheap Jimmy Choos are NOT worth scratches, bruises or broken bones.

Seriously. It’s a brutal game. By putting your thoughts out there, you leave yourself open to all kinds of bullshit, from disagreeing critics to flamers and trolls to potential rapists. Once you put your ideas out on the web, they’re not your own anymore, and everything is up for criticism.

Which is why I don’t understand why pantywaist fairies with thin skin think they can make it in the blogging world, let alone the political world. It’s BRUTAL! Many is the night I’ve gone to bed asking myself if I have the balls to carry on with this blog. And I’ve had to remind myself that the critics only exist because I feed them.

Such is the blogging life.

The thing is, if you’re going to threaten to sue every single person who disagrees with you or makes fun of you, you’re going to ruin your life with bitterness and hate. Yes, there will always be legitimate cases of libel or valid threats to life that some bloggers have to deal with. But then you get happy SLAPPers like Warren Kinsella and Richard Warman, who get a bug up their tight little asses every time their names are mentioned. It’s pretty funny, when you consider that they made themselves public figures; Warman with his crusades and Kinsella with his political… well, whatever it is he does.

Take for example the kinds of comments he received on his most recent article for the Ottawa Sun. Some of them are pretty scathing. Is Kinsella going to call Quebecor and ask for the names and IP addresses of every negative commentator? If that’s the way he feels, perhaps it’s time to retire from public life.

Warman sues anyone who calls him a censor, effectively censoring them, but is completely devoid of irony when he does it. Kinsella sues anyone who calls him a douchebag, even though truth is an absolute defence.

No wonder they’re friends. No one else will have them.

Sunday schools teach hymns and Bible stories. Hebrew schools teach language and history. Muslim schools?

So-called ‘weekend schools’ for Muslim pupils as young as six also teach that the penalty for gay sex is execution and that ‘Zionists’ are plotting to take over the world for the Jews.

One set textbook challenges youngsters to list the ‘reprehensible’ qualities of Jews.

Another for six-year-olds asks them to answer what happens to someone who dies who is not a believer in Islam. The answer being looked for is ‘hellfire’.

So what disgusting tribal backwater is all this taking place in?

The United Kingdom, of course!

Thankfully, students are also being taught how to discuss differing points of view and debate relative merits.

For acts of ‘sodomy’, children are told that the penalty is death and it states a difference of opinion whether this should be done by stoning, or burning with fire, or throwing over a cliff.

As for the anti-semitism that exists within Islam, it’s good to know that the Saudis want to make sure we understand that their Jew-hating is all done in context:

Referring to the lesson that tasks children to list the ‘reprehensible qualities of the Jews’, in a letter to the BBC, the Saudi ambassador said it was ‘dangerously deceptive and misleading to address such texts and discuss them out of their overall historical, cultural and linguistic contexts’.

Whew! Thanks for clearing that up.

In other Jew-hating educational news, this time closer to home…

But if Torontonians dared counter-protest, they could be charged with crimes.

And then there’s the icing on the cake: Shoukri demanded a written apology from Rabbi Hoch. Hoch claimed Shoukri was insufficiently concerned about Galloway’s anti-semitism and harassment of Jewish students on campus. To show just how concerned he was, Shoukri demanded the rabbi shut up.

That’s how it works back in Egypt, where Shoukri comes from. Anti-Semitic groups get official podiums from which to speak, and Jews are silenced. But that’s not how we do it in Canada.

Or at least it’s not supposed to be. The president of York University’s student federation likes to roll Egyptian-style, too. Last year he was part of a group of pro-Palestinian radicals who swarmed the Jewish students on campus, who had to barricade themselves into a closed room for safety. The student president’s name is Krisna Saravanamuttu, and on Wednesday night when he saw Jewish students protesting against Galloway – he let out a torrent of swears against them.

Also, I cried every week at the end of The Littlest Hobo when London ran off and that gawdawful song was played. By the time he sat on the log in the sunset, I was a blubbering heap, hugging my Doberman.

But this? This is devastating. A war hero, killed on American soil. Like one Twitter commenter said, the county oughta pay for a military funeral.

Target. Read about her. I defy you not to cry.

Would anyone in the audience care to venture a guess how many Jews complained?

A children’s shop has removed toy pigs from farmyard sets in case they offend Muslims and Jews.

The Early Learning Centre ditched the pig from its HappyLand Goosefeather Farm toy set after it upset some customers.

One mother realised the pig was missing from the set she bought for her daughter’s birthday when she found a pig sty and a button that made oinking noises, but no pig.

Jews eat bacon. It’s not the 7th Century anymore, and there are no longer health concerns related to eating pork products. So yeah, how many Jews ya figure bitched and moaned about the wee plastic pig?

Once again, I’d like to thank Jesus for dying on the cross and making us the world’s only religion sensible enough to eat ham. Amen.

Oh wait…

Authorities arrested a radical Lebanese cleric Sunday after a car chase punctuated by gunfire. Days earlier, Omar Bakri had been convicted on charges of inciting a bloody months-long confrontation between the government and an Al Qaeda-linked militant group.

A military tribunal on Thursday sentenced Bakri, a Lebanese Syrian national, to life imprisonment for his role in provoking the summer 2007 conflict between the group Fatah Islam and Lebanese security forces that left dozens dead and tens of thousands homeless in the Nahr Bared refugee camp near the city of Tripoli.

In my never-ending quest for the perfect eating disorder, I picked up Portia de Rossi’s memoir, Unbearable Lightness: A Story of Loss and Gain.

I love memoirs. Not plain old boring ones, but juicy, introspective, gossipy or tragic ones. Unbearable Lightness is pretty much all of that mixed in for a low-calorie meal and an hour on the treadmill.

I remember seeing the images of de Rossi when she was at her lowest weight, and this particular image really struck a nerve with me, looking so much like the unhealthy childhood friend I was raised with. To give you some kind of idea of how small my friend T was, my mother died of lung cancer weighing 43 lbs - we used T as the dress fitter for the outfit my mom would be buried in.

As a girl who struggled with weight all her life, I found de Rossi’s book fascinating. No matter how little she weighed, she always felt there was another inch to lose. The part that really spoke to me, however, is where she doesn’t believe she could be anorexic, because she doesn’t have the coveted willpower of anorexics. I’ve had those thoughts, myself. I’m not strong enough to be anorexic. Yet for her, it was something that snowballed until it consumed and nearly killed her, and she collapsed on a movie set here in Toronto.

I found this book so riveting - so very, very well written - that even when my coveted Decision Points came out last week, I was totally unable to put Unbearable Lightness down. It’s not a glossy Hollywood memoir chock full of glamor shots. In fact, the only images in the book are used to jar the reader (and likely the writer) and create a sense of urgency. Eat or die.

I strongly recommend this book to anyone that ever had an unhealthy relationship with food, that’s ever obsessed over a calorie, that’s ever cried watching The Biggest Loser, or who’s ever spent an extra 10 minutes on that treadmill.

Caveat: The book reads like an honest-to-goodness how-to of living and managing an eating disorder. Don’t hand this book off to your teenage daughter without really sitting down and talking with her about the harrowing effects that starvation can have on the body. Seriously, Unbearable Lightness is like an instruction manual, and shouldn’t be given to the impressionable without giving them some kind of emotional support during and after the reading. It would be all too easy to adapt the Portia de Rossi diet to the life of a 15 or 16 year old girl, what with all the tips and tricks on how to hide the lifestyle.

That said, I consider this one of the all-time best books I have read, and plan to read it again. Order yours through Amazon.com and save 50% off the cover price. Canadian residents use this Amazon link.

George Bush’s book, Decision Points, comes out today. I already have my copy reserved at the bookstore across from the office, and I’ll pick it up at lunch. I may then develop a severe stomach upset that sends me home for the rest of the day. You never know. I can’t wait to read it! I’ve been like a kid on Christmas Eve since the book was announced back in march!

In all reality, Decision Points should have been called Miss me Yet?, but that might have been a bit too obvious. Especially since he’s trying to remain a gentleman and not criticize Obama. I guess Bush had enough of that bullshit from Carter. In his interview last night with Matt Lauer, he said “The President has enough people criticizing him, I’m not going to be one of them.” Classy.

Unlike the Annointed One himself, who still blames Bush for every hangnail and rainy day, even two years into his Reign of Error.

If you haven’t already, order your copy of Decision Points through Amazon and save almost 50% off the cover price.

Every purchase you make through Amazon.com and Amazon.ca via this website helps me pay the bills. Thank you for your patronage!

Ofcom has ruled that Islam Channel, a London-based broadcaster, broke the broadcasting code for advocating marital rape, violence against women and describing women who wore perfume outside of the home as “prostitutes”.

Five programmes broadcast on the satellite TV channel were ruled to be in breach of broadcasting guidelines, the media regulator said today. Ofcom launched its investigation into the programmes, which aired in 2008 and 2009, following a report by the Quilliam thinktank that was published in March.

In a programme first broadcast in April last year, Ofcom ruled that the Islam Channel host Nazreen Nawaz condoned marital rape when she said: “And really the idea that a woman cannot refuse her husband’s relations this is not strange to a Muslim because it is part of maintaining that strong marriage. But it shouldn’t be such a big problem where the man feels he has to force himself upon the woman.”

The channel also broke the broadcasting code by encouraging violence against women, in a Q&A session on marital violence, and for labelling women who wore perfume “prostitutes”.

If I were in charge of Ofcom, I would make it so that these tidbits were carried on every station, every hour on the hour, just so people would know exactly what Islam stands for. The fact that Ofcom sees a problem with this, while pandering politicians don’t, baffles me. Ofcom are the only ones in the UK with any common sense.

TWISTED Taliban killers used a TWO-YEAR-OLD girl as the trigger for a bomb which killed her and five Afghan police, The Sun can reveal.

The terrorists stood the frightened toddler on the device and ordered her not to move.

Worried Afghan National Police raced to help the screaming child and when they picked her up to comfort her the bomb detonated. As well as claiming six lives the blast also injured a bystander.

We are supposed to treat our enemy humanely. How is that possible when they use one of their own daughters to set off a bomb? They are not human, ans should not be given the benefit of our humanity.

It’s been a year since Major Nidal Hassan - a radicalized Muslim Army shrink - went on a rampage killing 13+1 people at Fort Hood. My betters are covering this topic from their own perspectives. This is from mine.

Last year I was in a deep tailspin. I had completely withdrawn from everyone and everything. My friend Art Lindsey stepped up and took over this blog, my popular Brass Balls Radio podcast was taken off the air, and I disappeared.

Until one afternoon in early November, I crawled to the living room to grab a cup of coffee. The TV was on and there was much chaos on the screen. Another Muslim had declared jihad on America.

For the first time in over a month, I rallied. I sat up straight; the words were actually sinking in. Despite my own problems, our war with Islam continued to rage. Even though I was hiding, the real world, in all it’s gruesome glory, had seeped in.

I wrote. For the first time in five weeks, I wrote something other than “be back soon” on my blog. I was focused, and goddammit I was angry. The Western world was continuing its head-in-the-sand policy of believing that Muslims could stand for something other than war and death, and once again were shown only war and death.

In my own sick way I want to thank Major Hassan for giving me back the hatred and anger that drives me. He did more for me last year than all the pills and shrinks could ever have accomplished on their own. He reminded me why I - as RightGirl - exist and why I must continue to maintain my blog and my fight.

Further to my earlier post about broken home kids growing up to be criminals…

Fourteen prisons in England and Wales, most of which hold short-term inmates, have reconviction rates of more than 70%, Ministry of Justice figures disclosed today reveal.

The reconviction rates for individual prisons published for the first time show that Dorchester, in Dorset, has the highest at 74.7% for adult male prisoners and New Hall, in Yorkshire, has the highest reconviction rates for female prisoners at 76%.

Who’s shocked? Anyone? *crickets*

…commit more crimes.

This is statistically true, and for many reasons. If the family broke up due to violence while the child was in his or her formative years, then violence is what they learned. If the family broke up due to substance abuse or promiscuity, then that is what the child has to live with. If the family broke up due to death, then he or she will have a trauma to work through.

Of course, the whining whores in the comment section of this article refuse to accept that kids from fucked up households become fucked up themselves. Because that would mean they’d have to take some responsibility for their choices and their actions. I know from personal experience that taking responsibility SUCKS, and that it’s so much easier to blame society or whatever. But that has to stop. It’s not doing anyone any good.

On crime, he said children from broken homes were more than twice as likely to live in poverty than two-parent families.

‘Only 30 per cent of young offenders grew up with both parents. Children from broken homes are nine times more likely to become young offenders.’

He added: ‘This is not some abstract debate. Family life affects all of us – what happens on our streets; in our communities; and in our economy. What you learn from a very early age has a great deal to say about the person you will eventually become and the life you lead.’

Mr Duncan Smith said no-one’s life was determined by their family circumstances and many people overcame early difficulties to achieve great things.

But he added: ‘We would be foolish to ignore the weight of evidence which shows just how influential family life can be to life outcomes.

Not every child of a broken home will become a holy terror, but statistically, the prevalence is much higher. Facts hurt feelings, but they’re still facts. I just find it refreshing that a politician has the balls to talk about it.

Ding dong, bitches - the Wicked Witch of the West Coast had the House dropped on her last night.

Consider this your open thread for gloating, complaining, jerking off, or whatever floats your big red boat today.

It’s midterm time, everyone! Have you got your remote handy and a big bowl of popcorn by your side? How about the Vegas odds sheet? Sometimes I think the midterms are more fun than the main leap-year event. When there’s a presidential race on, the individual campaigns tend to get overshadowed. Then you end up missing things like animal porn, witchcraft, and bartering for medical service with chickens.

Tomorrow evening I will be enjoying an adult beverage or two with Eric from VA in a Downtown Toronto establishment to be named later, and watching the Democrats get massacred in both the House and Senate. And I will be giggling like a little girl.
