Muslims in Malaysia are upset, which means rioting and setting churches on fire, over the fact that Christians speak of God as Allah, the subject of a recent court case in Malaysia.

Christopher Hitchens writes:

When speaking silkily to ignorant Western audiences, Muslim propagandists sometimes like to say reassuringly that we all—Christians, Jews, Muslims—worship the same God. We are all children of Abraham, blah blah blah. We are all “peoples of the book,” blah blah again. It is true that the Quran contains much material borrowed from the Pentateuch and the New Testament, but it is also true that it is widely considered to be authentic only when written or declaimed in Arabic. The Bahasa Malaysia and Bahasa Indonesia lingua franca contains many borrowings from Arabic, including the G-word, but this doesn’t stop its Christian speakers from being told that they can’t follow their own faith in their own tongue. This quite clearly negates the notion that Islam is universal, that it preaches brotherhood, that it is a “religion of peace,” blah blah blah. Instead, it shows a very calculated sectarianism, not entirely free of racial and national exclusivity at that, which proves that deep down the Islamists are not monotheists at all but believe that there are several gods, of whom theirs is naturally the best.

It won’t surprise you, I hope, to learn that I have been an expert on this for decades and took it in literally with my mother’s milk. My earliest years were spent in the island nation of Malta, that wonderful spot of earth between Libya and Sicily, with its capital, Valetta, perhaps the greatest Baroque and Renaissance city in Europe. Malta has a language of its own, which I used to speak in a boyish way. The Maltese tongue was once considered by some philologists to be descended from the speech of the Carthaginians, but by far its closest kinship is with the Arabic spoken in the Maghreb of Libya, Tunisia, and Morocco. It is the only Semitic language rendered in a Latin script, and, along with English, it is an official language of the country. Since Malta’s accession as the smallest member state, it is also an official language of the European Union. And in Maltese, the printed word for God is Alla, which means that when spoken by a priest, it sounds exactly the same.[Holy Names | Now some Islamists want to prohibit non-Muslims from referring to God as Allah. By Christopher Hitchens, Slate, February 8, 2010

Actually, it did surprise me for just a minute that Hitchens had spoken Maltese as a child, since I thought of him as having been raised in England near Dartmoor. (Where he went to a  school with compulsory chapel services and became an atheist.) But then I remembered that Hitchens’s father was an officer in the British Navy.

Malta is a British Navy base in the way that Guam and Diego Garcia are American bases, so it’s natural that Hitchens should have spent some time there as a child.  See Peter Brimelow’s 1990 review of   Blood, Class, and Nostalgia: Anglo-American Ironies for insights into Hitchens’s psychology.

More from Obama’s illegal Armada De Haiti–a woman who decided to set sail (for her third try) because she heard about TPS:

The time was right

Among Louis’ passengers is Fanise Jean, 24, who lives on the ground floor of a pastel-pink French Creole house a short walk from the water. Jean has twice attempted the journey, once a year ago and again in July. Those journeys depleted her resources, which she collected as a beautician, and her stamina.

“It’s a lot of suffering,” she said. “People throwing up on you, you can’t take a shower, there’s little food, and the boat is always shaking back and forth.” One of her journeys lasted 14 days because the captain got lost, and three people became ill and died.

Until last month, Jean had been resigned to waiting longer before trying again. But she began reconsidering two weeks ago, when she got word that her boyfriend, who lived in Port-au-Prince, had been crushed to death in the earthquake. “We had just talked that morning on the phone,” she said.

Then, she heard from a friend in Boston who had joined her on one of the earlier attempts to reach the United States. The friend, alone among those on the boat, had been allowed to stay because she was eight months pregnant. The baby was born and the friend was being held for deportation.

“She called to tell me that she got her papers,” Jean said. “Just like that. All the Haitians in the United States are getting their papers.”

So, Jean decided the time was right.[Haitians prepare for boat journey to Florida, By Scott Kraft, Los Angeles Times, February 7, 2010]

There’s a slideshow here.

Obama’s decision to grant TPS, (Temporary Protected Status which means that like his aunt, they can’t be deported) to Haitians I the United States has caused an entirely predictable response from Haitians in Haiti–they’re building boats to invade America.

“America is a place where everybody can become someone,” Douna says before bedding down for the night, an expression of certainty on her pretty young face. “It’s where everyone lives like human beings.”

And besides, she says, “I have nowhere else to go.”

After the earthquake, the Obama administration quickly announced that it was granting “temporary protected status” to the more than 100,000 undocumented Haitians estimated to be living in the United States, and suspending deportation proceedings. That status can be extended up to 18 months. … To qualify for temporary protected status, Haitians have to prove that they were in the United States on or before the quake. But for people in the country illegally, that could be difficult to verify, and the would-be immigrants in Cap-Haitien are counting on that.

I was looking for a transcript of Sarah Palin’s speech last night, and didn’t find one, but I did find this, from New American Media, a multicultural news service serving every ethnicity but regular Americans, which notes that the tea party movement are patriots on the subjects of immigration:

Tea Party Dabbles in Immigration Politics

New America Media, News Report , Marcelo Ballvé, Posted: Feb 05, 2010 Review it on NewsTrust

The Tea Party movement has energized activism against President Obama’s vision for immigration reform.

The link between tea partiers and immigration politics developed last summer, when the impact of illegal immigration on the health care system became a prominent side issue in town hall debates.

Since then, illegal immigration has steadily gained ground on the Tea Party agenda.

Immigration “is one of our main issues in the state of North Carolina,” said David DeGerolamo, co-founder of Tea Party group NC Freedom, in a phone interview. “And what it comes down to is that the United States is a republic based on the rule of law. What part of illegal is right?”

Unfortunately, even New American Media notes that Governor Palin is not a firebrand on this issue, quoting Tamar Jacoby, of all people:

Tamar Jacoby, a conservative [VDARE.com note: Ha! ] who heads ImmigrationWorks USA, a pro-immigration business group, agrees that tea partiers may take up immigration in earnest in the future. But for the time being, she sees them still in an early stage of organizing and far more zeroed-in on limited government and fiscal issues.

And the Tea Party movement’s allies in the political establishment, Republicans like [Dick] Armey of FreedomWorks and former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, still have a chance to influence the course Tea Party activism will take on issues such as immigration, Jacoby said. “Leadership will matter. What Palin and Armey say will be very important.”

Palin and Armey are hardly firebrands on the immigration issue.

Armey, as Jacoby pointed out, is an “old friend” of immigration reform. Armey has spoken out about making the system “more orderly” but “not more restrictive.”

Palin’s position on immigration is still hazy. In a recent interview on the Glenn Beck program she said, “I think Republicans, conservatives are at fault when we allow the other side to capture this immigration issue and try to turn this issue into something negative for Republicans,” she said, according to a Fox News transcript.

Palin stressed immigration laws should be followed, but added, “We need to continue to be so welcoming.”

It’s worrisome that Tamar Jacoby isn’t worried about Palin, while Paul Streitz is.

Representative Steve King reaches across the aisle to help the President:

Speaking about America’s unemployment problem on November 2, 2009, President Obama expressed a desire for new ideas on how to create good-paying jobs. The President stated that “if somebody can show me a strategy that’s going to work, then we are happy to consider it.”

I have introduced legislation that the President should be “happy to consider,” right down to and including the bill’s title – New IDEA. On September 16, 2009, I introduced H.R. 3580, the Illegal Deduction Elimination Act (New IDEA), which will immediately reduce America’s unemployment and result in the hiring of millions of unemployed Americans. New IDEA will crack down on employers and illegal workers and level the playing field for law-abiding American employers and employees.

According to the Department of Labor, the December 2009 national unemployment rate in the United States was 10.0% and Iowa’s unemployment rate was 6.6%. There are 15.3 million unemployed American citizens while the Pew Hispanic Center reports that eight million illegal aliens hold American jobs. In Iowa alone, there are 112,700 unemployed workers while 35,000 illegal aliens hold jobs.

It is inexcusable for American citizens and law abiding immigrants to be jobless while law-breaking illegal aliens hold American jobs. New IDEA clarifies that wages and benefits paid to illegal aliens are not deductible for federal income tax purposes. So if employers hire illegal workers, the wages and benefits paid to illegal workers will be denied as a business expense, resulting in taxable income for employers.

He’ll be talking about his blog post Bill Gates scholarship excludes white kids.

AWARE-LA, the “Alliance of White Anti-Racists Everywhere” i[Email them]s an organization which opposes, among other things, VDARE.com. They are not, as I’ve pointed out before in another context, “self-hating” whites. They do not hate themselves. They hate me.

Oh, they hate you too, and George Bush, (for the wrong reasons) and present day America, and historical America, and, probably, their parents. Here’s a blog effort by them:

The term “illegal alien” or “illegal immigrant” is not acceptable in mainstream rhetoric. Not from anti-immigrant advocates and especially not from immigrant rights supporters. I sometimes hear conversations that allude to using the term “illegal” to gain support for immigration reform from people in the ‘middle’. While the argument sounds logical, the term “illegal” was inserted into the mainstream by anti-immigrant groups, and every time we use it, beyond criminalizing people, we perpetuate a racist framework.

The term “illegal alien” is fairly new. When the 14th amendment was ratified in the 1800s, the term did not exist. After 1965, when the Immigration and Nationality Act was passed, which redressed previous laws that favored immigrants from Europe, terms like “illegal Immigrant” or “illegal alien” were inserted into mainstream discourse by white nationalists. Those that saw this country as a homeland for white people – not only to be controlled economically and politically by whites, but to look white – were disturbed by the influx of people from the global south after the 1965 Act.[White Nationalist Rhetoric Prevalent in Mainstream Discourse « AWARE-LA]

It took only a minute for me to find hundreds of uses of the term “illegal alien” in books before 1965, but the point is that these are kids, with no idea of what was common in America before about the year 2000.

Mickey Kaus calls the twenty-something journalists like Ezra Klein “juiceboxers“ (also “whippersnappers“) because they’re so young, they’re  totally ignorant of what has gone before in American history. (To give you an idea, Kaus was born during the Truman Administration, I was born in the Eisenhower Administration, Klein was born during Reagan’s second term.)

Some of these kids at AWARE-LA were born during the Clinton Administration, and if it weren’t for the phony concerns about the  environment they’d still be drinking out of juiceboxes.

They have probably never actually heard the vulgar epithets used by old-time racists against various varieties of immigrant, like the students at Claremont McKenna, who when a professor spraypainted racist epithets on her own car, didn’t know what one of the epithets meant.

However, I can assure them, once again, that “illegal alien” is not a racist epithet, nor is it a novelty. The concept of alienage goes back to the middle ages, if not before, and the United States  passed an Alien And Sedition Act in 1798.

The “Heretical Two”, two UK men being persecuted under British “anti-racism” law for spreading hate on the internet, have lost an appeal:

Internet racism pair lose appeal

The men were jailed after a failed bid to seek asylum in the US

Two men have lost their appeals against the UK’s first conviction for inciting racial hatred via a foreign website.

Simon Sheppard, 51, was sentenced to four years and 10 months, and Stephen Whittle, 42, to two years and four months at Leeds Crown Court in July.

However, the Court of Appeal has reduced Sheppard’s sentence by one year and Whittle’s jail term by six months.

Sheppard, from Selby, North Yorks, and Whittle, of Preston, Lancs, controlled US websites featuring racist material.

During their first trial in 2008, they skipped bail and fled to California, where they sought asylum claiming they were being persecuted for their right-wing views, but were deported.

The concept that US immigration appeals are “not over until the alien wins” apparently doesn’t apply to white victims of anti-racism laws.

The BBC says that

“Sheppard’s counsel Adrian Davies told the Appeal Court the sites were “entirely lawful” in the US.

He said that there was no evidence that anyone in England and Wales - except for the police officer in the case - had ever seen any of them. “
