Joseline Ingabire with her daughter Leah Batamuliza, Rwanda A poignant portrait of a Rwandan woman embracing the daughter she bore as a result of being raped during the Rwandan genocide in 1994 has won Britain's National Portrait Gallery 's annual photographic prize. Watching in the background and leaning against the mud wall of their home is Ingabire's first daughter Hossiana with whom she was pregnant when Hutus killed her husband and began subjecting her to months of repeated rapes. "When the …

2007-11-06 21:16  Terror-celle: 20 arrestert over hele Europa
En terrorcelle som vervet folk til selvmordsaksjoner i Irak og Afghanistan, ble sprengt av italiensk politi tirsdag. Cellens tyngdepunkt lå i Lombardia, men hadde forgreninger over hele Europa. 20 ble arrestert. De fleste var tunisiere. Politiet sier det bekrefter at området rundt Milano og andre steder i Nord-Italia er et senter for ekstrem-islam. Aktiviteten har pågått i mange år. "Once more, the central role of Milan and Lombardy in the panorama of Islamic militants has been confirmed," the C …

2007-11-05 21:26  Who really killed de Menezes
By David Aaronovitch (THE TIMES, 05/11/07): A couple of years ago I did my second stint of jury service at a Central London court. We ended up hearing a case in which a middle-class couple were terrorised one evening by a man who had decided, wrongly, that they were connected with an earlier argument he d lost with someone else entirely. There was a lot of punching, threatening and door-smashing involved, and the woman was still so scared that she testified from behind a screen so that the accus …

By Azzam Tamimi, the director of the London-based Institute of Islamic Political Thought and the author of Hamas: Unwritten Chapters. See also Ulter's lesson for the Middel East (THE GUARDIAN, 05/11/07): David Trimble cannot be accused of lacking knowledge of what the Irish problem was about; he had been part of the problem as well as the solution. However, his lack of expertise on the Palestinian problem - which he admitted on the BBC's Newsnight recently - surely renders him ill qualified to i …

2007-11-05 21:07  The Iraq war has become a disaster that we have chosen to forget
By Madeleine Bunting (THE GUARDIAN, 05/11/07): "You think you are innocent, but you're not," said the British Muslim suicide bomber in the Channel 4 television drama Britz last week. As the compelling actor Manjinder Virk recited her suicide statement to camera, she went on: thousands of women and children are dying every day in Iraq and Afghanistan, and yet the governments responsible have been returned to power.Her assertion sticks in the mind because it goes straight to the heart of how we ch …

2007-11-05 13:28  A Battle Rages in London Over a Mega-Mosque Plan
Disputes over mosques have broken out across Europe. Residents from Belgium to France to Germany have expressed unease at minarets competing in the urban landscape with the spires and stones of centuries-old cathedrals. But the fight raging over an abandoned lot in London's East End is of an altogether grander scale. A large and secretive Islamic sect proposed building what would have been the largest mosque in Europe, smack at the gateway to the 2012 Olympic Games, and within sight of London's …

Samtidigt som polisen nu inleder en kampanj mot gatuvåldet i Sverige fortsätter debatten om våldet ökat eller ej. Men läkare på sjukhusens akutmottagningar, rättsläkare och poliser är eniga: karaktären på det våld som använts har förändrats kraftigt. Enligt polis och rättsläkare börjar mord allt mer likna avrättningar.  Våldets karaktär har förändrats   (Malmø alene havde to skudepisoder dette  døgn )   »Migrants take all new  job in Britain« hvem sagde at "indvandringen rammer bunden hårdest og …

Den center-högerinriktade brittiska tankesmedjan Policy Exchange har publicerat en rapport som visar att hatpropaganda finns att tillgå i en fjärdedel av de 100 moskéer och islamiska institutioner som undersökarna besökt. Extremist literature that encourages hatred of gays, Christians and Jews can be easily found at many of Britain's mosques, according to a new survey. Many of the publications allegedly called on British Muslims to segregate themselves from non-Muslims and for unbelievers to be …

By Simon Tisdall (THE GUARDIAN, 25/10/07): Students of the European Union have become accustomed to rating competing member states in a sort of political Champions League table. National standings vary as leaders come and go. The perennial question is: who's up, who's down It's a game the likes of Jacques Chirac loved to play. But in the lull after the storm over the EU's reform treaty, Europe's current Big Three - Britain's Gordon Brown, Germany's Angela Merkel and France's Nicolas Sarkozy - fi …

By Jeremy Leggett, author of Half Gone: Oil, Gas, Hot Air and the Global Energy Crisis (THE GUARDIAN, 25/10/07): When Britain and Germany raced to scale up their aircraft industries for war in the 1930s, the British competed rather well. Recovering from a late start, we rapidly produced machines capable of winning the Battle of Britain.Today, the two nations are on the same side in a different battle, but Germany alone is mobilising as fast as it did 70 years ago. Our common enemy is global warm …

By Bronwen Maddox (THE TIMES, 25/10/07): This has been a shatteringly bleak week for Pakistan, but not one that condemns it to being a failed state. The return of Benazir Bhutto, overshadowed by the bomb that killed 140, is a step forward. But although she has been championed in Europe and the US, she is a long way from being the solution to her country s savage problems. Pakistan dominates Britain s foreign worries, officials say, and they are right. It is not just that terrorism is on the incr …

Broken glasses.

Gudmundson uppmärksammar på sin blogg terrorist islam-fascism veckan som drivs på högerkanten i USA. Sen kanske inte Christopher Hitchens är den bästa att reda ut begreppen även när han är vaken ur spritdimmorna. Personligen tror jag inte det är en tillfällighet att islamofacism blev populärt ungefär samtidigt som USA kom på den lysande iden att invadera Irak. Saddam var sedan ju ett dålig alternativ som ideologisk fiende något som behövdes i den stora kampen mellan civilisationer. Att det sedan …

Man skal være forsikig med historiske analogier, men noen ganger er det som jeg føler vi lever i 20-30-årene. Denne gang heter fascismens sentrum Iran, sa Tony Blair under en større tale i New York før helgen. Blair kan være meget tydelig og klar i sin analyse. Det var han denne gang når det gjelder Irans rolle. Han sa også at USA og Europa er på vikende front og ikke helt forstår trusselen. In his first major speech since leaving office, Mr Blair said that Iran was prepared to destabilise peace …

2007-10-23 07:13  Hitchens om islamofascism
I USA pågår Islamo-fascism awareness week, nyttan av vilken man kan diskutera. Det har föranlett Christopher Hitchens att reda ut varifrån begreppet kommer. The term Islamofascism was first used in 1990 in Britain's Independent newspaper by Scottish writer Malise Ruthven, who was writing about the way in which traditional Arab dictatorships used religious appeals in order to stay in power. I didn't know about this when I employed the term "fascism with an Islamic face" to describe the attack on …

The report always includes as Table 1 the "Key indicators of development" that provides the basic data on most countries of the world. Its f …

By Madeleine Bunting (THE GUARDIAN, 22/10/07): If you've never heard of synbio, you will hear plenty in the next decade. Synthetic biology now occupies roughly the same space on the public's radar that computing might have done in the 1960s or genetic modification in the 1970s - it's largely unheard of by anyone except the scientific community and its geeky observers. But as the pace of breakthrough in this area quickens, the sense of being on the edge of an extraordinary technological revolutio …

By Martin Jacques (THE GUARDIAN, 22/10/07): A black formula one world champion seemed, even last year, unthinkable, yet Lewis Hamilton so nearly made it. This is a sport that has long suffered from an almost total white-out. Apart from the Japanese, virtually every face in the paddock, let alone on the starting grid, was, until recently, white. This is hardly surprising. The more expensive and/or exclusive a sport, the whiter it tends to be: the fact almost has the force of a law. That is the ma …
