“The Mayor of Moscow says there are no plans to build a new mosque in the city, and says the ‘excessive’ number of economic migrants was a ‘harmful thing’.
“It has turned out that the praying Muslims are not at all Russian citizens and they are not Moscow residents. They are labor migrants. There are only 10 percent of Moscow residents among them and building mosques for everyone who wants it – I think this will be over the top,” Sergey Sobyanin said in an interview with Moscow’s Echo radio.
The top city official went on to say that “Muscovites now get irritated by people who speak a different language, have different manners, with aggressive behavior. This is not purely ethnic, but this is connected with some ethnic traits,” Sobyanin said.”

I think it’s the right of the people to build whatever religious institutions they choose, because even though I am against mainstream religion, I recognize that it’s their right to do so. But the state has no right to sanction any religion or build any religious grounds.
Also, as a geology major, I was surprised to see the word muscovite
Xanthippa says:
Quite right.
I may be reading this wrong, but by using the justification of not using the funds collected from Muscovites to build houses of worship for non-residents, I think the implication here is specifically that no public funds will be used to subsidize the building of new mosques.

Other articles are more clear that he has decided to withhold city approvals for the building of mosques. Or in other words, he is prohibiting the building of new mosques. So again, I’m sure he will be your new favourite politician. Expect all the libertarians and conservatives who pretend to be in favour of freedom to cheer this unreservedly – after all, the only important freedom for anti-Muslim bigots like you is the freedom to restrict the freedom of hated minorities.

too many negatives in that sentence. my head hurts lol
March 4, 2013 at 11:59
Your new favourite politician! Finally, someone who doesn’t pussyfoot around their desire to simply strip Muslims of their rights. How refreshing this must be for you!
March 5, 2013 at 22:52
Juggernaut:
I would show more respect for the rights of Muslims if they were to show respect for my rights.
But they don’t.
They demand exaggerated respect for their rights as a sneaky way of trampling on the rights of non-Muslims.
And that is the true root of the Muslim problem, wherever they go.
Here, Europe, Russia… they will not rest until the entire world is one big Islamic theocracy. The Qur’an won’t let them.
We see how Muslims treat non-Muslims in places controlled by Muslims, and it leaves us no choice but to put our foot down and say:
No! Not in my country, you don’t!
Neo-liberals don’t have the guts for that, so they feign an attitude of false moral indignation and hope that it will hide their abject cowardice.
But it doesn’t.

You sound like the next Anders Brevik. You are a sick bigoted fuck.

But of course, you completely approve of your co-blogger explicitly advocating stripping all Canadian Muslims of their basic rights. You are a hypocritical idiot and an enemy of freedom. There is absolutely no difference between you and Codeslinger and Islamic radicals in the Muslim world – both groups aim to pre-emptively remove the basic human rights of the other side. You are the Canadian Taliban.
Xanthippa says: yIvoq ‘ach lojmItmey yISam.
March 6, 2013 at 13:02
Hey Codeslinger, why don’t you man up and tell the world exactly what Canada should do to its Muslims population? You drop lots of hints about how this and that right should be stripped…. but why don’t you just stop being a pussy and tell us what you propose to do? Outlaw Islam? Conduct random raids on Muslims throughout the country to make sure they aren’t secretly practising Islam in thier homes? Force muslims to wear yellow cresents on their sleeves? Round up and deport all self-identified Muslims? Or detain them in camps until the “war on terror” is officially over (ie. never)?
Man up you fucking pussy.

Xanthippa:
ghIlab ghewmey tIbuSQo’! Hah! Indeed!
But you know, even glob flies can serve a purpose. In this case, that purpose is to demonstrate the truth of my statement:
Neo-liberals don’t have the guts [to defend the way of life that protects their freedom], so they feign an attitude of false moral indignation and hope that it will hide their abject cowardice.
But it doesn’t.
As for me, I give Muslims and their rights precisely as much respect as they give me and mine.
Those who don’t like my reaction to them should look to themselves for the cause.
And that goes for neo-liberals, too.
Xanthippa says:
CodeSlinger,
if only neo-nazi supremacists had the wisdom to get themselves recognized as a ‘religion’, they would enjoy as protected a status as other forms of fascist totalitarianism…like, say Sharia adherence!
March 7, 2013 at 08:52
lol xan. neonazi’s would be accepted as a religion, but they would have to take over some countries first, you know, so people can say a slander against neo-nazism is a slander against the ethnicity of the countries they took over.
Xanthippa says:
Quite right, they’d benefit from the use of the term ‘racist’ against anyone who criticizes their ideology!
March 7, 2013 at 11:53
Codeslinger, I think that you don’t quite understand the meaning of “coward”. You see, a coward is someone who refuses to act on conviction because of fear. Liberals do not share your genocidal hatred of Muslims. That is why they do not act on it. Not because they actually want to implement a regime of Muslim ethnic cleaning but are afraid to act.
You see the difference?
March 7, 2013 at 21:51
Xanthippa:
Well, I don’t think you will see neo-Nazis take that approach. Whatever their shortcomings may be, slinking around in the shadows isn’t usually one of them. If nothing else, they are at least bluntly open about their goals and beliefs.
Muslims, on the other hand, are taught by the Qur’an to be sly and patient until their numbers are sufficient to wage jihad by force. Thus, in countries where there are very few Muslims, they tend to be good citizens and cause no real problems.
However, every Western country in which the Muslim population has reached a certain critical threshold (about 4-5% — e.g. France, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, UK, etc.) is wracked by civil unrest, violent clashes and disingenuous legal posturings as the Muslims attempt to force the shari’ah upon countries whose culture is grounded in classical liberal principles.
Faced with this, and the knowledge that Canada is fast approaching that critical threshold, my response is to defend my own culture.
And neo-liberals have the gall to call this genocidal hatred?
What a perfect example of false moral indignation!
Neo-liberals, on the other hand, wring their hands and moan about how we aren’t bending over backwards far enough in deference to the demands of those who seek to use our own laws and traditions to silence us while they tear down our culture and replace it with a brutally repressive theocracy that recognizes no such thing as individual rights or freedoms.
And neo-liberals have the gall to call this anything but abject cowardice?
The mind boggles.

I would not be the slightest bit surprised if one I day I hear that you have gone on a killing spree Andres Brevik-style. Especially since you have explicitly stated that you consider it your obligation to stockpile weapons commensurate with the Canadian military for the purpose of one day turning them against government authorities. You are psychotic, paranoid, conspiracy-theory-loving freakshow.
And lets get one thing straight you bigoted piece of shit – I am a 4th generation Canadian. And I can asure you that my “culture” and your “culture” don’t share any overlap whatsoever. You are a degenerate, genocidally hateful pile of dog shit. So don’t use terms like “our culture”. There is no “our culture”. Canadian are far too kind and generous a people to stoop to your level of “culture”.

Xanthippa:
Welcome back!
I see your little self-ridiculing pet troll is still falling all over itself to demonstrate that neo-liberals are the most illiberal neurotics on the planet.
I wonder how crazy one has to be, to promote hate-speech laws and then spout post after post of such exceedingly intolerant and hateful invective…
Quite amusing to watch, actually.
Xanthippa says: Indeed!
And – thank you – I had quite a time of it!
