“Huge chasm” between Muslims and the West". Politically correct.  Freedom of Religion or freedom of speech is acceptable only if it is an Islamic one...  ".  Face it the West's fascination with the Islamic Cartoon's as well  is they are rightfully really tired of Islam continually shoved down their throats, they do not want anything to do with that oppressive religion. Australian prime minister John Howard also has said he considered the violent reactions to the cartoons “are completely disproportionate to the offence that could possibly have been given”. Rightfully also do tell all of the Muslims Imams in Canada to pray for and to practice now real peace in Canada and rather not be a part of the too many religious hypocrites. "It is a big risk that we could see emotions go beyond the limits of civil behavior," said Salah Basalamah of Muslim Presence Canada of the  Muslim anti Cartoons demonstration planned for Montreal this weekend and already some Muslim leaders feel the protest could get out of control and this is already unacceptable emotional blackmail. And do Tell them all ahead of time any Muslims protesters who get out of control will be arrested  rightfully even for disturbing the peace...  Some Montreal Muslim leaders prefer dialogue to planned weekend protest for in reality as we see world wide they want this as an excuse to convert all of the Infidels, and then likely the other bad Muslims will next try to kill the rest who refuse the conversions.  Montreal Muslim leaders said today they respect free speech and freedom of the press, but don't want those values to be used to promote Islamophobia.   It is not the free speech of the others that causes today's rightfully vast Islamophobia but rather the undeniable, unacceptable violent, murderous negative acts of the Muslims themselves still.   What about Muslims demonstrating for freedom of speech, freedom of religion of all faiths in the Muslim world firstly too.. what it would be not allowed? they would likely be killed for it.. how hypocritically of them to demonstrate in Canada  against the other's freedom of speech worldwide.

 

Showing us all now his true colours, a bad Liberal..  "Canada's new politically correct Foreign Affairs Minister in action By Judi McLeod Thursday, February 9, 2006   The legacy of Prime Minister Paul Martin lives on in ivory towered Ottawa. Sadly, the Martin legacy lives on perhaps because of--and not in spite of--the fledgling minority Conservative government that replaced the Liberal one.  Canada's newly minted Foreign Affairs Minister Peter MacKay's first statement in his new portfolio: "The government of Canada will continue to promote a better understanding of Islam internationally, in partnership with Muslim communities." Politically correct Martin couldn't have said it better himself. Worse, MacKay issued his statement in reference to the ongoing violent Muslim rage over the Danish editorial cartoons that depicted the Prophet Mohammad—a Muslim rage that seems to have cost a Catholic priest his life in Turkey, on Tuesday. As Toronto Sun scribe Licia Corbella suggests, "Promoting a better understanding internationally of any religion—Islam included—is not MacKay's role or any other federal official's role." But try to lay that, Ms. Corbella, on a policy wonk come to power. For all of those with the luxury of being able to ignore Canadian politics, MacKay is the cuckolded and coddled Conservative MP who could easily star in a remake of Sleeping with the Enemy, Canada style. Dopey MacKay was dating MP Belinda Stronach when she jumped ship to return to the Liberal Party. Warning signs pointing to romantic Pierre's priorities were there all along, but lost on Mr. Harper. Incredulously, when blonde billionaires Belinda dumped MacKay at the same time she abandoned the Conservative Party for what she thought was the election-proof Liberals, conservative colleagues gave their cuckolded colleague a standing ovation in Parliament. ..   Meanwhile, if hopeless Harper wants to see a definition of "superficial", he can find a picture of MacKay alongside the word in any dictionary.  Note: A Tory organizer and friend says it is possible that MacKay may have been the victim of a  bureaucratic foul up on his better understanding of Islam comments. If that's the case, where's the retraction?  Canada Free Press founding editor Judi McLeod is an award-winning journalist with 30 years experience in the media.

"Foreign Affairs Minister Peter MacKay who both invoked the constitutionally enshrined right to freedom of expression while underscoring that the right must be “exercised responsibly.” Only the Post digs up the background Census data that lists PEI as having a Muslim population of 195 residents, equal to 0.1 percent of the island’s small population. According to the 2001 census results, Canada’s total Muslim population is just over 500,000. . , the public is far from viewing the concluding frame of the cartoon debate"

Showing us all now his true colours, the Canadian Foreign Minister  Peter McKay calls for better understanding of Islam.. while in a survey at least 70 percent of Quebecers said they would never let their son or daughter marry a Muslim as well cause they do not respect, trust them? So is this what the Canadian Foreign minister means he is going to expound when  calls for better understanding of Islam.. we all put our heads in the sand and deny their unacceptable, negative terrorists emotional violent outbursts and now lie and say Islam is a peaceful religion, killing only a few people so far promoting  their own false agendas, unacceptable dictatorial state and values now? Muslims even still do the same thing they do protest against.. kill and make bad cartoons.. and now how really hypocritical it is of them and us all now too?  What you cannot remember when the last time any one, especially a federal cabinet minister  had said officially, specifically  in Canada, Peter Mckay  said they were sorry the Christians had been abused? neither can I.. cause he still really does not care about any offending the others or of the Christian votes? he only cares about the people who hate the Jews and the Christians... Foreign Affairs Minister Peter MacKay issued a statement Wednesday noting that the drawings, which appeared in some European publications, have caused offence in Canada and abroad... but not the Islamic poor reactions?  well?

"Wednesday, February 08, 2006 MacKay's disappointing start Peter MacKay hasn't been Foreign Minister for a week, and he's already sounding like Pierre Pettigrew or Kofi Annan. Here's his press release on the Islamofascist riots. My comments are interspersed: The publication of cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed has caused offence to Muslims and non-Muslims around the world and in Canada.I'm sure it has. So does the fact that Queen Elizabeth doesn't wear a burka, or that women in Canada can drive cars, or that Jews and Christians don't have to pay a special jiziya tax for being infidels. We await MacKay's press release on the offencive daily anti-Semitic cartoons in the Muslims press, or, for that matter, the daily anti-Christian "art" in Hollywood or Broadway. They won't come because the criterion for press releases like this one isn't respect for a religion. It's fear of a religion. Freedom of expression is a legally enshrined principle in Canada, but it must be exercised responsibly. We commend those Canadians who have acted appropriately. So now a minister of the crown is telling -- who, exactly? The press gallery? Why won't he say? -- that freedom "must be exercised responsibly". Is he saying that it is irresponsible to publish innocuous cartoons of Mohammed? Is that his legal opinion as a minister? What does "must" mean? Is he going to back that up somehow? Or is he just joining in with his own version of the libel chill that is the true meaning of the riots?  However, we condemn the violent protests that have occurred in some parts of the world, and find the attacks on foreign diplomatic missions particularly deplorable. This sensitive issue highlights the need for a better understanding of Islam and of Muslim communities.  Oh, we do need a better understanding of Islam -- or at least the minister does. And the understanding starts with realizing that there is a choice here, not a compromise: either our centuries-old Western freedoms are supreme, or Islam's centuries-old strictures are supreme. You really can't split the difference.  Respect for cultural diversity and freedom of religion is a fundamental principle in Canada.  If the good minister, also a lawyer, took a moment to read the Charter of Rights, or  any other source of Canadian constitutional law, he would find that "respect for cultural diversity" is not a fundamental Canadian principle, but "freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression, including freedom of the press and other media of communication" is. You can tell because it's under the heading "Fundamental Freedoms" in our Constitution. I can't find the word "respect for diversity" in the Magna Carta. In any event, my diversity includes diversity of opinions, and the right to opt out of sharia law. That's my idea of diversity. The Government of Canada will continue to promote a better understanding of Islam internationally, in partnership with Muslim communities. So now the Canadian government is in the business of promoting Islam internationally? Absurd; if you need help realizing that's absurd, substitute the word Christianity for Islam. How about promoting classical liberal values, Canadian values? But with press releases like this one, I rather doubt that clarity is the goal. But I think the riots themselves, and the threats of further and deeper violence (more 9/11's, more Holocausts) that accompanied them, have done more to help our understanding of the clash of cultures than anything since 9/11.   Ezra Levant on February 8, 2006  " http://westernstandard.blogs.com/shotgun/2006/02/mackays_disappo.html#comment-13792193

 

Is Peter MacKay next going to join the Liberal party too? Like his friends..

JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) - Christians also have become targets. Pakistani Muslims protesting in the southern city of Sukkur ransacked and burned a church Sunday.  That incident came a day after Muslims protesting in the Nigerian city of Maiduguri attacked Christians and burned 15 churches in a three-hour rampage that killed at least 15 people. Some 30 other people have died during protests over the cartoons that erupted about three weeks ago.  In Jakarta, about 400 people marched to the heavily fortified U.S. mission in the centre of the city, behind a banner reading "We are ready to attack the enemies of the Prophet."  Protesters throwing stones and brandishing wooden staves tried to break through the gates. They set fire to U.S. flags and a poster of U.S. President George W. Bush and smashed the windows of a guard outpost before dispersing after a few minutes.    The U.S. Embassy called the attacks deplorable, describing them as acts of "thuggery." and I still do not see Peter MacKay MP  or our PM S Harper making an statement on behalf of the the abused Christians.

DID YOU ALSO NOTICE ALL THESE REAL BIG HYPOCRITES WHO SAY THEY ALSO NOW DO BELIEVE IN FREEDOM OF SPEECH, FREEDOM OF RELIGION, WHAT THEY MOSTLY STILL THEY DO BELIEVE IN IS ONLY IN THEIR OWN RELIGION, BE IS A SECULAR OR AN ISLAMIC ONE, AND THEY BELIEVE IN THEIR OWN FREE SPEECH ONLY AND NOT THAT OF OTHERS.  AND THAT IS WHAT THE ISLAMIC CARTOON PROTESTS EVEN BY THE NEWS MEDIA IS  TRULY NOW ABOUT. USE YOUR RIGHT OF FREE SPEECH PUBLICALLY TO SPEAK ABOUT THE PERSONAL WRONG DOINGS OF A MAYOR, PREMIER, PRIME MINISTER, BAD COPS IN CANADA AND THEY WILL LIKELY SEND THE POLICE TO YOUR DOOR TO SHUT YOU UP, TO WRONGFULLY TRY TO OBSTRUCT JUSTICE. It only happened 6 times to me but I still speak out in a peacefully manner and do not wrongfully resort to violence.
