Man Arrested For Throwing Koran In The Toilet
NEW YORK (AP) _ A 23-year-old man was arrested Friday on hate-crime charges after he threw a Quran in a toilet at Pace University on two separate occasions, police said
Stanislav Shmulevich of Brooklyn was arrested on charges of criminal mischief and aggravated harassment, both hate crimes, police said. It was unclear if he was a student at the school. A message left at the Shmulevich home was not immediately returned.
The Islamic holy book was found in a toilet at Pace�s lower Manhattan campus by a teacher on Oct. 13. A student discovered another book in a toilet on Nov. 21, police said
Muslim activists had called on Pace University to crack down on hate crimes after the incidents. As a result, the university said it would offer sensitivity training to its students |

The odd thing is she isn't whining about what everyone would expect, she is whining on behalf of her poor Muslim brothers and sisters. I guess she figures they are too stupid to act on their own behalf so she will condescend to do it for them.
Some of the comments Gentes alleges to have violated her human rights:
04/24/06 "I can't figure out why the homosexuals I ran into are on the side of the Muslims.
After all, Muslims who practice Sharia law tend to advocate beheading homosexuals."
03/09/06 "I defy Islamic censorship and speak about what I believe is the truth about violent Islamism and its threat to religious liberty in Canada." |

Hate Crimes Against Muslim Student at Arizona State a Hoax
By Sara Russo
Arizona State University junior Ahmad Saad Nasim was charged October 11th with two misdemeanor counts of false reporting to law enforcement, after he admitted fabricating two incidents of hate crimes in the days following the September 11th attacks on America. A religious Muslim who hails from Saudi Arabia but has held US citizenship for two years, Nasim's fake accusations created an atmosphere of panic on campus, and contributed to the flight of at least 51 international students, mainly from Middle Eastern nations, who feared for their safety at school.
The first hate crime was reported on September 13th, just two days after the attacks on America, when Nasim claimed that he was pushed to the ground and pelted with eggs in a campus parking lot by two men shouting, "Die, Muslim die!" The attack received national media coverage, and was vigorously condemned on campus. |

The College Republicans at San Francisco State University recently found themselves under investigation for the offenses of flag desecration and blasphemy. While the disciplinary proceedings ended late last month with a decision not to punish the student group, the investigation itself points to a troubling trend.
The alleged blasphemy was directed at Islam, and the desecrated flag contained no stars or stripes. At a small anti-terrorism rally in October 2006, several members of the College Republicans stomped on pieces of paper they had painted to look like flags of the radical Islamic organizations Hezbollah and Hamas, copying the designs from images on the Internet. A few days later, a Muslim student filed a complaint, on the grounds that the Arabic script on the Hezbollah and Hamas flags contained the word "Allah." The university pressed charges, accusing the blasphemers of "incivility" and creating "a hostile environment." |

Hate-Crime Accuser Charged With Arson
By THE NEW YORK TIMES
Published: September 30, 2004
By The New York Times
McALLEN, Tex., Sept. 29 - The owner of a Middle Eastern meat market who had said he was the victim of a hate crime in this border town was arrested and arraigned Tuesday on a felony arson charge that he set fire to his own business.
The man, Amjad Abunar, had complained that "Go Home" was twice spray-painted on a door of his Al Madinah Market before a fire on Aug. 6 that gutted the small delicatessen. Only last week, the graffiti and fire were cited as evidence by a Washington advocacy group that hate crimes against Muslims were on the rise in Texas.

Bond for Mr. Abunar was set at $150,000, and he remained in jail on Wednesday.
Representatives of the advocacy group, the Council on American-Islamic Relations, which had complained that McAllen officials were not investigating the fire as a possible hate crime, said they were stunned Wednesday to learn of Mr. Abunar's arrest.
Ibrahim Hooper, a council official in Washington, said Mr. Abunar had assured him he had nothing to do with setting the fire.
A spokesman for the McAllen Fire Department, Lt. Rene Alaniz, said initial reports mentioned no evidence of graffiti or a hate crime. "That has not changed," he added Wednesday. |

| According to some observers, Islamophobic hatred is on the rise in Europe. Let's have a look at what constitutes "racist hatred." The following is used as an official example of what is considered an Islamophobic hate crime in Sweden: A Muslim family in a Swedish neighborhood asks whether it is possible for them to get something else to eat other than sausages made out of pork. Linda then answers: "No, we live in Sweden." The family asks what she means by that. Linda repeats that "We live in Sweden, and you have to respect that." The man of the family says that "We respect you, why can't you respect us?" Linda then replies that "No, unfortunately not." She laughs and walks away. |

Why is the left trying to end free expression yet again? Why are they doing it almost exclusively for muslims?
Useful Idiots rise again.

European Socialists decide to tackle Islamophobia
European socialist organizations have decided to stem the increasing Islamophobia in Europe by breaking the monopoly on the debate which has, up until now, primarily belonged to far-right and ultranationalist groups.
The Party of European Socialists (PES) -- a caucus representing 214 members of the European Parliament (MEPs) drawn from 33 socialist and social democratic parties -- has created a committee to seek ways to combat Islamophobia. Believing that Islam is now a European religion, the 25-member committee wants to "listen" to the 20 million Muslims now living in Europe in a bid to understand their problems, as well as provide solutions to alleviate their grievances. |
