Now we know that virtually all the principal politicians in the UK of both parties, like their brothers across the lake in our House and Senate, take “contributions” from the Israeli lobby machine ensuring that the Anglo-American mid-east policies follow the dictates of the Israeli government. Gilad Atzmon responded to this report in his article “Britain must de-Zionise itself immediately,” noting that this control has been in place for so many years the lobby feels “untouchable.”<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-6744" title="Russisk-ortodoks-kirke-moskva" src="http://no.altermedia.info/images/Russisk-ortodoks-kirke-moskva.jpg" alt="Russisk-ortodoks-kirke-moskva" width="597" height="803" />Telegraph:</em> <strong>A Russian Orthodox priest known for his outspoken criticism of Islam and his attempts to convert Muslims to Christianity was assassinated in his Moscow church by a masked gunman</strong>.</p>
<p><strong>The gunman approached Father Daniil Sysoyev,</strong> 34, in his small wooden church in Moscow on Thursday night, <strong>checked his name and then shot the priest in the head and chest</strong>, police said.</p>
<p>The priest died on the way to hospital, Interfax news agency quoted investigators as saying. A choirmaster was injured in the attack, and is in hospital under armed guard.</p>
<p><strong>Father Daniil, who claimed to have christened 80 Muslims, had repeatedly received death threats.</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;<strong><em>I have received 10 threats via e-mail that I shall have my head cut off (if I do not stop preaching to Muslims)</em></strong>&#8220;, Father Daniil stated on a television programme in February 2008, according to Interfax. &#8220;<em><strong>As I see it, it is a sin not to preach to Muslims</strong></em>&#8220;.</p>
<p>The killing could increase tensions between the powerful majority Russian Orthodox Church, which has close ties to the Kremlin, and the country&#8217;s growing Muslim minority of about 20 million.</p>
<p>&#8220;The main theory is that religious motives are behind the crime,&#8221; a spokesman for the prosecutor-general&#8217;s office said.</p>
<p><strong>Father Daniil had written books including &#8220;An Orthodox Response to Islam&#8221; and &#8220;Marrying a Muslim&#8221;, in which he advised Russian women against taking a Muslim partner.</strong><br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Huge increases in immigration over the past decade were a deliberate attempt to engineer a more multicultural Britain, a former Government adviser said yesterday.<br />
Andrew Neather, a speechwriter who worked in Downing Street for Tony Blair and in the Home Office for Jack Straw and David Blunkett, said Labour&#8217;s relaxation of controls was a plan to &#8216;open up the UK to mass migration&#8217;.<br />
As well as bringing in hundreds of thousands to plug labour market gaps, there was also a &#8216;driving political purpose&#8217; behind immigration policy, he claimed.</p>
<p>Ministers hoped to change the country radically and &#8216;rub the Right&#8217;s nose in diversity&#8217;. But Mr Neather said senior Labour figures were reluctant to discuss the policy, fearing it would alienate its &#8216;core working-class vote&#8217;.<br />
On Question Time, Mr Straw was repeatedly quizzed about whether Labour&#8217;s immigration policies had left the door open for the BNP.</p>
<p>Writing in the Evening Standard, Mr Neather revealed the &#8216;major shift&#8217; in immigration policy came after the publication of a policy paper from the Performance and Innovation Unit, a Downing Street think tank based in the Cabinet Office.</p>

<p>Support for the party has increased in the last month, a survey for The Daily Telegraph indicated.</p>
<p>The findings will lead to accusations that the BBC’s decision to invite the far-Right MEP on to its flagship current affairs programme may have backfired by giving him a national platform.</p>
<p>The YouGov poll was taken hours after Mr Griffin’s appearance on Thursday, before which anti-fascist protesters rioted outside BBC Television Centre in London.</p>
<p>The survey found that 22 per cent of voters would “seriously consider” voting for the BNP in a future local, general or European election. This included four per cent who said they would “definitely” consider voting for the party, three per cent who would “probably” consider it, and 15 per cent who said they were “possible” BNP voters.</p>
<p>Two-thirds said they would not consider voting for the party “under any circumstances” with the rest unsure.</p>
<p>Mr Griffin’s performance, during which he was challenged about his views on the Holocaust, immigration, Islam and homosexuality, has divided the political establishment. Some senior figures criticised the BBC for inviting him on to the programme.</p>
<p>David Lammy, the Higher Education Minister and one of the first black men to serve in a British government, gave warning of a potential rise in racist and anti-Semitic attacks, saying he was “very worried about the days which will follow”.</p>
<p>More than half of those questioned said they agreed with the BNP, or thought that it “had a point” in wishing to “speak up for the interests of the indigenous, white British people &#8230; which successive governments have done far too little to protect.”</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-4429" title="political-correctness_submission" src="http://no.altermedia.info/images/political-correctness_submission-300x228.jpg" alt="political-correctness_submission" width="300" height="228" /><em>Telegraph</em>: <strong>A Christian couple who run a hotel have been charged with a criminal offence for allegedly insulting a female Muslim guest</strong> about her beliefs.</p>
<p><strong>Ben and Sharon Vogelenzang are charged with breaching Section 5 of the Public Order Act – causing harassment, alarm or distress. If convicted, they face fines of £2,500 each and a criminal record.</strong></p>
<p>The Muslim woman was staying at the Bounty House Hotel in Liverpool, which is run by the Vogelenzangs, when a conversation arose between the hoteliers and their guest about her faith.</p>
<p>It is understood that <strong>among the topics debated was whether Jesus was a minor prophet, as Islam teaches, or whether he was the Son of God, as Christianity teaches.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Among the things Mr Vogelenzang, 53, is alleged to have said is that Mohammad was a warlord. His wife, 54, is said to have stated that Muslim dress is a form of bondage for women.</strong></p>
<p><strong>The conversation</strong>, on March 20,<strong> was reported by the woman to Merseyside Police</strong>. Officers told the couple that they wanted to interview them over the incident.</p>
<p>After being questioned on April 20,<strong> they were interrogated again three months later before being charged on July 29 with a religiously-aggravated public order offence. They appeared in court on August 14 and are now awaiting trial</strong>.</p>
<p><strong>Mr and Mrs Vogelenzang do not accept that they were threatening or abusive in any way. David White, who is representing them, said that they believe they have the right to defend their religious beliefs</strong>.</p>

<p><em>Telegraph</em>:<strong> Home Office staff have been warned not to eat in front of their Muslim colleagues during the month of Ramadan</strong>.</p>
<p><strong>A five-page advice booklet tells civil servants that eating lunch near a colleague who is fasting can make them feel hungry</strong>.</p>
<p>The Home Office Islamic Network produced the advice which said: “In practical terms, please be sensitive when eating lunch near a Muslim colleague who is fasting.</p>
<p>“This can make an individual feel hungrier and make it more challenging to observe the fast.”</p>
<p><strong>It also urged Home Office managers to be flexible over working hours because Muslims may be following a different routine during Ramadan, which finished this weekend.</strong></p>
<p>“The most likely need Muslim staff may present to managers during this period is for flexibility around working hours and break times as those fasting will have a slightly different routine from usual. Managers and Muslim staff should discuss what their needs are and be responsive and sensitive,” the document said.</p>
<p><strong>Managers were also told: “Muslim staff who are fasting and whose environment allows it may wish to set out for work earlier than usual and finish their working day correspondingly early&#8230;in line with flexi-time arrangements.</strong>”</p>
<p>During the holy month devout Muslims do not drink or eat from dawn until sunset and, according to the document, must avoid ‘all obscene and irreligious sights and sounds’.</p>
<p><strong>The Islamic Network is one of a number of staff faith and equality groups within the Home Office and paid for by the taxpayer</strong>.</p>

<p><em>Telegraph</em>: <strong>A Christian nurse will meet hospital bosses tomorrow to find out whether she will be forced out of her job for insisting on wearing a cross while on duty</strong>.</p>
<p>Shirley Chaplin has been taken off the wards at The Royal Devon and Exeter NHS    Trust Hospital after refusing to remove her necklace.</p>
<p>As first disclosed in The Sunday Telegraph,<strong> the 54-year-old grandmother has    been told she cannot wear the one inch silver symbol openly </strong>because it    breaches uniform policy and could prove a risk to patients.</p>
<p>She has been warned she could be suspended if she does not co-operate or    accept accept an administrative role at the hospital, prompting fears that    she could be dismissed after nearly 30 years.</p>
<p>The trust insisted its policy was not about the symbol of the crucifix, but    motivated by health and safety concerns about patients grabbing necklaces.</p>
<p>But Mrs Chaplin, who is eight months from retirement, is taking them to an    employment tribunal claiming she has been targeted because of her faith.</p>
<p>“Everyone I have ever worked with has clearly known I am a Christian: it is    what motivates me to care for others,” she said.</p>
<p>“<strong>For about 30 years I have worked in the NHS and nursed patients day and night    and on no occasion has my cross caused me or anyone else, any injury – and    to my knowledge, no patient has ever complained about me wearing it.</strong></p>
<p><strong>“I feel that I’m being bullied and victimised because of my faith.”</strong></p>
