Hate GroupsScientology:
Scientology abuses 11 more defectors from the Church of Scientology have provided accounts of physical or mental abuse by Scientology leader David Miscavige.

The cult — known for its hate- and harassment activities, including character assassination — has a hypocritical response. Yet it cannot get around the fact that its founder codified unethical behavior toward those who criticize Scientology.

More evidence that the cult’s glossy ads hide a stark truth: that of a destructive cult in decline.

Hate GroupsQuackeryScientology:
Scientology Marty Rathbun and Mike Rinder, the highest-ranking executives to leave the Church of Scientology, are speaking out for the first time.

Two other former executives who defected also agreed to interviews with the St. Petersburg Times: De Vocht, who for years oversaw the church’s spiritual headquarters in Clearwater, and Amy Scobee, who helped create Scientology’s celebrity network, which caters to the likes of John Travolta and Tom Cruise.

One by one, the four defectors walked away from the only life they knew. That Rathbun and Rinder are speaking out is a stunning reversal because they were among Miscavige’s closest associates, Haldeman and Ehrlichman to his Nixon.

Muslim in Britian engaging in hate speech A report by an Islamic anti-extremism foundation says “Foreign imams, poorly paid and with limited proficiency in English, are ill-equipped to navigate Britain’s complex, liberal and multi-faith society.

“By failing to reach out to young British Muslims, radical Islamists have the upper-hand. Britain’s young Muslims, without a voice in mosques, are looking elsewhere for religious guidance and will continue to be drawn in by young, articulate extremists who offer an alternative narrative, cause and social space.”

Beastly female Muslim terrorist Samira Ahmed Jassim A woman suspected of recruiting more than 80 female suicide bombers has confessed to organising their rapes so she could later convince them that martyrdom was the only way to escape the shame.

Women are often allowed through military checkpoints without being searched, making it easier for them to hide explosives under their traditional robes.

Our question: with Muslims around the world going nuts over cartoons, teddy bears and freedom of speech, when will we see them protest this kind of religious insanity?

The video, posted on YouTube, shows protesters chanting ‘Allahu Akbar’ (God is Greatest) and ‘Fatwa’, a death threat under Islamic law.

Given the behavior of the Muslims shown in the video, this news item is filed in both the ‘Islam’ and ‘hate groups’ category.

Dr. John H. Tanton, a retired eye surgeon, started both ProEnglish and the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR).

The Southern Poverty Law Center identified FAIR as a hate group last winter based on its acceptance of $1.2 million from a white supremacist organization, employees’ ties to other such groups and a history of “anti-Latino and anti-Catholic attitudes.”

It attacks the personal life of the slain civil rights leader and, by extension, the movement of nonviolence he championed. It rehashes allegations of plagiarism and adultery and accuses King of fraud, claiming he was not a “legitimate reverend” or “bonafide Ph.D.”

The site is run by a white supremacist group called Stormfront, described by one watchdog organization as the largest “hate group” online
