STR † THE FREEDOM BLOG

Friends,

We need oil - that’s the plain truth.

God has given America a great deal of oil. It’s all in Alaska. It’s waiting for brave patriotic Americans to drill it up and sell it on the open-market, just like Jesus intended. Unfortunately the liberals and eco-fraudsters want all that oil to stay underground. They don’t want you to have gas for your car.

They think that we shouldn’t drill for oil because Alaska is a “wildlife-reserve”.

Next time a liberal tells you that we shouldn’t be drilling for oil, you should ask them: What’s the point of having a wildlife reserve if nobody can afford to go there? Are our tax-dollars just going to fund a patch of useless ground full of plants and animals that nobody gets to see or hunt? What would be the point in that? STR.com says it’s time to get drilling so that we can enjoy off-roading!

Those folks who think we shouldnt drill for oil in ANWR are a bunch of city-dwelling idiots. What’s the point of all this open country if we cannot drive around our awesome jeeps? This vehicle gets 15 miles to the galon, high gas prices are simply unfair to those of us who love to kick up awesome snow.

Soon it’s going to be impossible for most folks to be able to afford this great form of entertainment, and then nobody would be able to drive around ANWR - and what would be the point in that?

Preserve our heratige: Vote John McCain for President so that we can preserve the sporting activity that made America great: Off-Roading!

The Pelosi Premium

If you couldn’t have seen $4/gallon gas coming the moment that Nancy “Mafia Princess” Pelosi got “elected” Speaker of the House then you don’t read the Bible.  I wonder just how much of the money good, hard working Christians pay at the pump goes right into the purse made of the skin of dead pre-borns that Pelosi carries around with her? $2?  $3?  The straight out fact is that gas went up 70% since the dumbo-crats took over Congress.  70%!  That buys a lot of crack, don’t it, “Senator” Obama?  It’s all part of the lie-beral plan to destroy the American economy and set up a Communist dictatorship in the US headed by a murderous, left-handed, gay, negro, crackhed voodoo priest whose name I ain’t gonna mention.

See, by driving up the price of gas, they’re hoping to start what Pelosi calls “the grand and glorious revolution of the proletariat”.  They think the American people are so stupid that they won’t see through their evil plan, blame the Republican party and vote for a  murderous, left-handed, gay, negro, crackhed voodoo priest who’ll then declare himself Supreme Commissar for Life, opening the door for Obama bin Laden to waltz right in and make it illegal to have bacon with your eggs in the morning.

If Homobama gets elected, ham, bacon and sausage will
no longer be allowed on the family breakfast table because
we will be forced to be muslims

Americans ain’t that stupid, though, and when God appoints the new president, gas prices are gonna fall faster than Michelle Obama fell for the line that her “husband” was a heterosexual.

“How’s that gonna happen, Billy Bob,” all the drugged out lie-beral zombies are gonna cry, “Lord Obama says it’s impossible to bring down gas prices and we believe him cuz he’s so handsome!”  Well, he’s lying!  Simple as that!  We got oil lying all over the United States of America, just wanting to be drilled and dug up but the dumbo-crats won’t let us!  They’d rather see Americans suffer and wilt rather than lift a finger to help them  After all, John Kerry don’t give a fig about ordinary Americans.  He justs wants to laugh at their pain!

This is the vision of the American family put forth by the dumbo-crats
for the 2008 election.  You think this is why God created America?

And Americans are suffering under the iron thumb of La Cosa Pelosi

• A family in Texas had to cancel their cable to pay for gasoline
• A family in Maine had to cancel their summer vacation plans just to send their son to Eagle Scout camp in Colorado
• A family of twelve in Oklahoma has to get by on a quarter can of beans per person just to be able to afford to drive their Escalade to get the kids to school.
• A grandmother in Mississippi died because her son couldn’t afford the gas to drive her to the emergency room when she had a stroke.

The number of tragedies wrought by the dumb0-crats numbers into the millions!  And all of it could be avoided if they’d step out of the way and let us get the oil God gave us.  It’s like this spokesman said on Fox News Sunday a couple of weeks ago -

The Creator didn’t leave oil and gas on every plot of land

But he did tell us how to find it and we owe it to both ourselves AND God to use what he gave us.

ANWAR -

Can you find ANWAR?  If it’s so big, then how come you can’t see it?

Now, unless you’re home schooled, you probably don’t know that this is a map of the world.  If you look at the purple part in the upper left hand side - that’s Alaska.  There’s a whole ton of oil in Alaska that the Dumbo-crats wanna tell us we can’t use.  Why?  Because we might kill a couple of snow fleas.  Oh, boo hoo!  Let all the grandmother’s in America die from strokes but please, oh, please save the snow fleas!  Y’all can call me anything you want but I would personally hunt down every gol-darned snow flea in the world to save my grandmother.

Save the snow flea or save Grandma?  The only possible reason to
spend any kind of time thinking about this question is if you’re a drug
addict.

Another reason the commies say we can’t take God’s oil outta there is that it’s so “pristine”.  That’s a bunch of crap because I bet they never been to Alaska since most homos don’t like the cold.  Can you see Barney Frank up there in ANWAR trying to have butt sex with  an Eskimo.  I bet they’d be feasting on his blubber in no time flat!  I might be able to understand not drilling around the Creation Science musem because there’s people there to enjoy it.  But ANWAR?!  No, sir.

There are some lie-berals that say it’ll take 30 years to start getting oil outta ANWAR and it don’t help with the short term solution.  They’re stupid.  If we’d started drilling there 30 years ago we wouldn’t be where we are now!

SHALE AND COAL OIL-

What would you say to 3 trillion barrels of oil?  Think that’d bring down the price of gas?  Lie-berals say no thank you.  This is the only  country in the world where we hold a wake when we find new oild supplies!  Shale oil extraction could solve our gas crisis overnight.  But the dumbo-crats won’t even let you dig a hole in the ground.  “We have to respect Mother Goddess Earth”, they blaspheme.  Let’s just remember that God told us that we held DOMINION over the earth!  The only thing that we ain’t supposed to touch is the forbidden fruit and that dumb broad already messed that one up.  So just like the female of the species always does, Pelosi don’t do what God wants and does do what He don’t want.  We are the Saudi Arabia of coal and shale AND we don’t wear towels on our heads.  That’s a win-win in everybody’s book except the lie-berals.  You see, it don’t advance the revolution.

What’s wrong with digging holes?  Beats me!  I bet that
lie-beral parents don’t even let kids dig in a sandbox now!

OFF SHORE DRILLING -

What do you care about more - having the God-given right to drive around the corner to the store or taking a ride on a dolphin?  That’s one of them questions that you don’t really answer.  It’s more to make the point that defeato-crats are so stupid that they don’t realize that we are part of the environment too! It ain’t the plants and animals that made America the greatest country on earth.  It’s people!  And progress takes energy.  Them Greenpeace terrorists don’t never think about the fact that it takes gas for to drive their boats to stop Americans from having a nice tuna fish sandwich for lunch.  If they was honest then they’d swim.  But they ain’t.  Instead, they wanna let 85% of the oil that that Creator put under the ocean just rot like milk left out on the counter.  Why?  Because they hate America.

If Greenpeace really cared about the environment like they
claim they do, they’d stop using boats to rob Americans of
the gas that belongs to them and swim instead.

So to sum it all up, if you don’t wanna turn this country into a land of commie mulisms sitting around reading the koran by candlelight call your congressman TODAY and tell him that you want every single drop of oil we can get our hands on!

God is Love!

Friends,

Is Barrack Hussein Obama a Muslim or a Christian? We just do not know.

According to records from the “madrassa” which Obama attended as a child his religion is written-down as “Muslim”. Leading Islamic scholars agree that somebody who is born a Muslim can never leave their religion. Why then has Obama refused to address any of the allegations against him? Our friend J. Grant Swank at Mosquewatch has the answer:

MUSLIM OBAMA BLASTS DR. JAMES DOBSON

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

Focus on the Family’s Dr. James Dobson has been blasted by B. Hussein Obama.

“Even if we did have only Christians in our midst, if we expelled every non-Christian from the United States of America, whose Christianity would we teach in the schools?” Obama said.

“Would we go with James Dobson’s or Al Sharpton’s?” referring to the civil rights leader per AP.

This is the true “Christian” Obama. He is not Christian. He is a religious relativist, otherwise known as a theological liberal.

Obama underscores Sharpton’s “Christian” because self-appointed Pentecostal preacher Sharpton endorses abortion, homosexual lifestyle and every other social sin popular today.

Jimmy: That’s exactly right: Sharpton’s deranged theology is clearly one of a self-appointed megalomaniac - whereas Dobsopn’s pure, biblically correct Christianity proves beyond doubt that he has been appointed by God to teach us all the error of our ways. Swank continues:

Further, Sharpton is not Pentecostal for no Pentecostal worldwide agrees with his liberal theology. It’s another hoodwinking gesture to get into the black biblical brain, just as Obama plays to the black biblical brain by hosting outdoor gospel concerts and mounting black pulpits on Sundays.

Obama has stated in his book, “Audacity,” that he would erase the Judeo-Christian backdrop from America’s history in order to meld all religions as one, just as his mother believed.

Biblical Christians must be aware that when Obama speaks of praying to Jesus, he is referring to the prophet Jesus as believed by Muslims. He is not referring to the incarnate deity who indwelt Jesus Christ as the Son of God.

Jimmy: Once again, J. Grant Swank hase it just right: Have you ever heard Obama pray publicly for Jesus Christ to wash away his sins? Did you ever hear Obama implore the holy name of Christ to keep him pure? Of course not - and that proves that he might be a Muslim.

I believe Obama to be a mask Muslim.

Therefore, his brand of “national religion” would all the more enhance Islam in America for he has Muslims on his campaign and Congressional staff.

Lous Farrakhan’s Nation of Islam lives within his Illinois political district. Obama helped plan with Farrakhan and Jeremiah Wright the Muslim Million Man March on Washington DC in 1995. He endorsed anti-Jew Wright’s support of Hamas when Wright was head of the political plant known as the Trinity United Church of Christ.

Jimmy: I also note that Obama has never denied this connection with the Islamofascist Louis Farrakhan - is Obama still cavorting with known terrorists and enemies of America?

Dobson broadcasts on Focus on the Family his opinion of Obama, the detail given prior to the Associated Press.

“I think he’s deliberately distorting the traditional understanding of the Bible to fit his own worldview, his own confused theology,” Dobson said.

“… He is dragging biblical understanding through the gutter.“

I think Mr. Swank can see through Obama’s pretense: Any person who attacks James Dobson is no real Christian. Only a Muslim or an atheist would attack a man as Holy and Sensible as Dobson.

Last week the liberal press was full of wild and blatantly biased speculation about John McCain’s former wife. We at ShelleyTheRepublican do not wish to dignify the scandalous allegations against Senator McCain and his lovely wife Cindy, but we would like to restore some balance to this one-sided partisan talking-point:

Why is it that it’s OK to mention McCain’s previous marriage but not Obama’s? Barrack Hussein Obama likes to give the impression that he and Michelle have the ideal relationship. They want you to think that they are the perfect family - but do their smiles and hugs conceal a dark dark secret? Might this relationship be nothing more than a sham, set-up to fool the gullible left-wing press? This is a poissibility that the mainstream media has chosen to ignore.

According to Islam experts mosquewatch, Muslim men like Barrack Hussein Obama are suopposed to have at least four wives. As a devout muslim, Mr Hussein Obama will almost certainly have heeded this depraved commandment - so where are they? Where are the three other wives he is supposed to have? Why do we never see them hosting “The View” and swapping fried-chicken recipes with Oprah? These mysterious women are conspicuous by their absence.

According to the experts, Obama’s three other wives might look exactly like these women, except that they have been locked up in a prison cell in a secret dungeon far below Obama’s residence.

Leading mosque-wathchers agree - Obama’s three missing wives are most likely kept as prisoners in squalid cells far below Obama’s luxuary Senatorial mansion. It is possible that these three women, imprisoned in Obama’s sinister sex-den have never seen the light of day since they were kidnapped by Obama’s goons.

We asked Obama’s people to comment on the treatment of his three other wives, however true to form his campaign-team were unwilling to deny our allegations. Their blatent refusal to confront the issue of sexual-slavery is surely an indication of their leader’s lax morals.

Yours in Christ,

Colors can be ugly.
My name is Hans Meier. I live in Munich, Germany and I want to tell you a little something about Germany. I am an avid STR-reader for many years. I have learnt a lot about America, about Terrorism and last but not least about Germany, my own country. I am grateful to have dual citizenship. This might safe my life some day. If Germany is turning brown again, I can leave and be safe in America.

I regret to inform you all that Shelley is mostly right with what she tells us about Germany.

Nazism is definitely on the rise in Germany. You see flags everywhere. Germans get violent if you even only criticize Germany. Foreigners get beat up. Germans begin hating again. Violence against foreigners is as normal as Bratwurst. Especially Americans are the target of brutal attacks.

Patriotism is generally OK, I think, but there is a point when patriotism becomes toxic. This point is reached when the majority of people think that their country can do no wrong. That other countries, other people and other lives are not worth as much. This is what happened in World War 1 (11,000,000 deaths), this happened in World War 2 (55,000,000 deaths) and it is about to happen again. How many millions have to die this time, just because Germans can’t control their hate for the rest of the world? Are they going to start burning Jews again? Or will Americans be the target? You never know where blind patriotism and blind hate for everything different will go.

Another aspect that is deeply troubling is the moral decay in Germany. Germans call the German flag “Schwarz Rot Geil”. Translated that means “Black Red ‘Horny‘. Many tourists complain about the sexual misconduct happening all over Germany. Wild ‘Octoberfest’-orgies in the south, whorehouses in Hamburg and minors working as hookers in Berlin. Religion is almost non-existing in Germany. Germans are not firmly grounded in Biblical truth. The results are terrifying.

The following are pictures and descriptions that will tell you a lot about today’s Germland:

• 1. Face painted in the “Ugly Colors”. Open display of German-Style Patriotism and sexuality.
• 2. Drinking and screaming (mostly obscenities).
• 3. Female breasts painted in the “Ugly Colors” and displayed in public.
• 4. Abusing animals for fun. If the crab would be smarter it would never carry the Germ-flag.
• 5. Shameless display of a naked body.
• 6. The “Ugly Colors” painted on a female butt. What does that mean?
• 7. Three German sluts offering sexual favors to soccer players.
• 8. Fat German slut breeding more nazis.
• 9. German bulldog, abused by making it wear the “Ugly Colors”.
• 10. Another German breeder painting her stomach. Don’t you have any decency?
• 11. Two fat germans, apparently proud to be fat.
• 12. German breeder with soccer ball painted on her stomach. Are we supposed to kick you?
• 13. “We are the Champions”. When it comes to killing innocent people only.
• 14. Hard to decide: Kicking her ugly face of kicking the fat ball? Both has its benefits.
• 15. Naked German punk slut. She is probably trying to have animal sex.
• 16., 17. & 18. More pregnant sluts. The sign says: Breeding our new generation of Nazis.
• 19. What do you call that sickness? Getting undressed to visit a soccer game? Slut!
• 20. I know where to kick here!
• 21. Why don’t you come right out and paint that swastika on your stomach? Be honest!
• 22. The true colors of a German slut.
• 23. to 35. There must be a uniquely German ‘Slut-Gene’.
• 36. German dogs are just as ugly as their masters.
• 37. More sluts.
• 38. I don’t even want to know what’s in them glasses.
• 39. I am getting sick of seeing whores.
• 40. More animal abuse.
• 41. “Flaggenmeer”. A see of flags. Watch a Hitler documentary and you know all about it.
• 42. Have you ever seen something uglier?
• 43. This young nazi is using her dog to promote nazism.
• 44. One more slut.
• 45. Punk slut offering sexual favors to soccer fans. The usual rate is 20 Euro-Dollar.
• 46. Most German parents indoctrinate their children into becoming nazis.
• 47. Ok. It’s number 5 again.
• 48. German house. In Germany it’s required by law to display a flag.
• 49. Do I have to comment on that? I am feeling sick.
• 50. Ok. I am sick and tired of German slut breeders.
• 51. A face I like to punch: The typical German.
• 52. Patriotism does not stop at the bathroom door…
• 53. … and not at the kitchen door.
• 54. See the cold stare? She is a blind nazi follower. Burned any Jews yet, slut?
• 55. Germany’s history is incredibly bloody. Germland was built on Jewish blood.
• 56. This is where it gets dangerous. The “Flaggenmeer”.
• 57. German’s most famous soccer player is doing the “Hitlergruss”, the “Hitler Greeting” in public. Unfortunately this is widely accepted in today’s Germany.

Last week the lib-tards got their panties in a twist at some comments made by John McCain, our future president - apparently they objected to the fact that this former soldier knows that the sensible way to judge our progress in Iraq is by the number of casualties:

Liberals objected hysterically to McCain’s common sense position on the war on terror. Can’t they se what a good deal we are getting?

Let me show you the math:

According to US Government statistics, fewer than 2000 US service personnel have died in the course of defending peace and freedom in Iraq, but according to some surveys we’ve killed more than 92,000 islamofascist terrorists. That means for every American soldier who died in the course of duty, we got more than 46 of the bad guys. That sounds like a great deal to me.

Compare that to our work in Germany - throughout the war on terror we’ve had more than ten deaths amongst personnel serving on US bases in Germany, but we’ve not killed a single terrorist in that land. Those ten soldiers died for nothing!

So if only the German government would allow our forces to help clean up Europe the Germans would know the same kind of peace as our friends the Iraqis.

Yours in Christ,

Jimmy Goddard

What is wrong with America’s liberals? Don’t they have any decency? Once more they are attacking the troops by attacking one of the most decorated war heros America has to offer: John McCain.
He was a prisoner of war, he was tortured and still he continued to serve America. He dedicated his life to the service for America and he will be our next president!

Quote from the LATimes:

John McCain gets tax-free disability pension
The disclosure of the Navy benefit for injuries incurred as a Vietnam POW may raise fitness questions.
By Ralph Vartabedian, Los Angeles Times Staff Writer
April 22, 2008
Sen. John McCain has long said he is in robust health and is strong enough to hike the Grand Canyon, but he also is receiving what his staff Monday termed a “disability pension” from the Navy.

When McCain released his tax return for 2007 on Friday, he separately disclosed that he received a pension of $58,358 that was not listed as income on his return.

On Monday, McCain’s staff identified the retirement benefit as a “disability pension” and said that McCain “was retired as disabled because of his limited body movements due to injuries as a POW.”

McCain campaign strategist Mark Salter said Monday night that McCain was technically disabled. “Tortured for his country — that is how he acquired his disability,” Salter said.

Certain types of military and veterans pensions are either partially or completely tax-exempt, depending on the seriousness of the disability. In McCain’s case, the exemption is 100%.

If McCain had to pay taxes on the full amount of the pension, it would have increased his tax bill by about $18,000 based on the percentage of his income he paid to the federal government.

McCain spent 5 1/2 years as a prisoner of war in Hanoi. After he was released in 1973, he returned home on crutches and began a painful physical rehabilitation. He later regained flight status and commanded a Navy squadron before retiring from the service in 1981.

McCain would be the oldest man to enter the White House if he is elected president, and questions have been raised about his health.

McCain has twice developed melanoma, a potentially deadly form of skin cancer.

The fact that he is legally designated with a disability pension may raise further questions.

“It is a legitimate question to ask about the commander in chief: Is he fit to serve,” said Robert Schriebman, a senior Pentagon tax advisor and tax attorney who recently retired as a judge advocate for a unit of the California National Guard.

If McCain can hike across the Grand Canyon, then why should he be getting disability payments from the government that are tax-exempt, Schriebman asked.

McCain shattered his knee and broke both arms when he was shot down over North Vietnam in 1967.

In his autobiographies, McCain said that his knee still bothered him in cold weather and that he was unable to raise his hands above his shoulders.

Elmo Baker, a retired colonel and president of a Vietnam War POW group, said many former POWs were receiving some type of military pension that was partly or fully tax-free.

Baker said he was receiving payments that were 70% tax-free, but that he “didn’t have as many injuries as McCain did.”

Many of the Vietnam POWs are receiving payment under a program known as “combat-related special compensation,” which provides benefits and tax exemptions under a complex system, based on such factors as the type of injury and the years of service.

Paul Galanti, another former POW in the group, said that while McCain’s injuries were serious enough to qualify him for disability, it would not affect his performance as president.

“I don’t know of any physical requirements to be commander in chief,” Galanti said. “He would have a nice car to drive around in and a nice airplane to fly in.”

So what if he gets 58,000 Dollars a year! He deserves it!
But the more important point is that a disabled veteran gets this kind of money.
On the one hand liberals complain that the government is not taking care of veterans, on the other hand, if we do, they complain again that we are giving them too much money! What is it, democ-rats? YOU CAN’T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS!!!

In no other country on earth can veterans expect to get a life long pension of 58,000 Dollars! Only in America, because we honor our veterans! We honor their sacrifice. We are thankful!

Shame on Barack Hussein and his democrat party!

The girl who was stoned to death for falling in love

by NATALIE CLARKE

A teenage girl lies dead on the ground in a pool of her own blood.
Her once groomed hair is cast across her face like a rag doll’s, her skirt pulled up to complete her humiliation.

In another image, she is seen lying on her side, her face battered and bloodied, barely recognisable.

The concrete block used to smash in her face lies next to her.

Du’a Khalil Aswad was beaten, kicked and stoned for 30 minutes at the hands of a lynch mob before one of her attackers launched a carefully aimed fatal blow.

The murder was carried out in public, watched by hundreds of men cheering and yelling. Du’a’s crime? To fall in love with a Sunni boy. Her family practised the Yezidi religion.

The Sunnis and Yezidis hate each other. When Du’a ran away with her Sunni boyfriend, a sentence of death was passed on her.

This act of medieval savagery took place last month in a town in northern Iraq, in the fledgling ‘democracy’ created by Bush and Blair when they invaded the country in 2003 and ‘freed’ its people.

The sickening scenes, which defy belief in every sense, were captured by some of the observers and participants who thought it would be proper to record these harrowing events as some sort of memento.

Perhaps they thought it would serve as a warning to other young people who dared to follow their hearts - not the strictures of a religion which will not brook dissent - and punishes adolescent impetuosity with the most brutal of public murders.

The killing was filmed on a number of mobile phones. The images were then - all too predictably - posted on the internet.

The Mail takes no pleasure in publishing these pictures. But we believe our readers should witness the depths of the depravity still being carried out in the 21st century in the name of ‘honour’.

Perhaps, then, something can be done to prevent it happening again.

Of course, anyone who takes even a passing interest in news is all too aware of the tragedy that has engulfed the people of Iraq: the daily bombings, murders and kidnappings.

The subjugation of its women, however, has been largely ignored. Yet according to cultural observers, the number of so-called ‘honour killings’ has increased in Iraq since the fall of Saddam Hussein.

Campaigners say there is an ‘epidemic’ of such killings in the wartorn country. Autopsy reports in Baghdad often conclude with the verdict: “Killed to wash away her disgrace.”

The filming of Du’a’s death was just one more macabre element of her killing, but it has achieved something those bloodthirsty amateur filmmakers could not have predicted: it has brought such practices into the open and exposed them to the wider world.

It is, of course, too late for Du’a, a strikingly pretty young girl with long auburn hair. The 17-year-old must have hoped that the ‘liberation’ of her country would afford her opportunities she might otherwise never have had - for her education and a life of happiness free from oppression.

She lived with her family in the town of Bashika, near Mosul. They were neither rich nor poor.

It is believed Du’a met her Sunni boyfriend - whose name is not known - several months ago. They had grown up in an environment where hatred against rival factions is the norm.

The Yezidis - a Gnostic sect which combines Islamic teachings with Persian religions - despise the Sunnis; the Sunnis loathe the Yezidis.

Du’a and her boyfriend would have been all too aware that theirs was a forbidden love. But like so many teenagers before them, right back to the illicit love of Romeo and Juliet, they couldn’t help themselves.

For a while, they met in secret. It was during one such highly charged meeting that they came up with a plan to run away together.

It is not clear whether this desperate measure was a result of their having sought and been refused permission to marry, or if they decided to do it knowing that such permission would never be obtained.

“Her family would never have agreed to such a marriage,” says Diana Nammi, a leading Kurdish women’s rights campaigner.

Some Muslim groups have claimed that Du’a converted to Islam shortly before her murder. According to other reports, her boyfriend denies this.

They ran away together to an address in Bashika. The girl’s family alerted the police and Du’a and her boyfriend were found just a few days later.

According to Ms Nammi, who is calling for the girl’s killers to be brought to justice, Du’a was arrested and put into prison.

A few days later, the police apparently received assurances from the leader of her tribe - who Ms Nammi believes is Du’a’s uncle - that the girl would not be harmed.

What happened next is the subject of conflicting reports. According to some, the house of the tribal leader was stormed by a mob and Du’a dragged out and killed.

Ms Nammi, however, says she has information that it was the tribal leader who betrayed his niece to the mob. In this man’s eyes, Du’a had committed an unforgiveable crime, punishable by death.

The family’s ‘honour’ had been besmirched. The moment Du’a was placed in his house, her fate was sealed.

On April 7, Du’a was brought out of the house in a headlock to face the lynch mob. Hundreds of men were waiting for her - the excited atmosphere is said to have resembled a large sporting event - but no women.

On the video, Du’a’s screams can be heard as she is dragged to the ground. In a further humiliation, her lower body has been stripped.

Instinctively, Du’a tries to cover herself; only later was a piece of clothing thrown over her.

She is surrounded by an enormous crowd jockeying for a good view of the ritualistic killing. About nine men take part in the attack, including, it is thought, members of the girl’s family.

To any father of a daughter, that a helpless girl should be set upon with such cowardly savagery is beyond comprehension. One can barely imagine her terror.

It is a profoundly disturbing spectacle. One man kicks her hard between the legs as she screams in agony. Du’a tries to lift herself up, but someone hurls a concrete block into her face.

Another man stamps on her face. Someone kicks her in the stomach. Police officers stand idly by, some of them apparently enjoying the spectacle as much as anyone else.

Meanwhile, some observers film the execution on their mobile phones - the modern world intruding on a spectacle that belongs more in the Roman arena than in an apparently civilised society.

After half an hour of this savagery, Du’a is finally - mercifully, perhaps - dead. In a final humiliation, a man tries to lift her up, but drops her again, and her bloodied body is rolled face down into a puddle of blood. The family has had its ‘honour’ restored.

According to Ms Nammi, Du’a’s parents did not want her to be stoned, though it is not clear whether they might have agreed for her to be killed in some other way.

After her murder, according to Ms Nammi, two men were arrested by Iraqi police, but she has heard they were subsequently released without charge.

Reports suggest that two of Du’a’s uncles and four other people fled the town as investigators began to search for the culprits. It is thought these included her brother, who appeared in the video of the murder.

As for Du’a’s boyfriend - who has lost the girl he loved in the most awful circumstances imaginable - he went into hiding for a while, but it is believed that no action has been taken against him.

Du’a was buried in a simple unmarked grave. Later, says Ms Nammi, her body was exhumed by the Kurdish authorities, who have autonomous control of the region, and sent to the Medico-legal Institute in Mosul.

There her body was examined to find out whether she had been a virgin or not, before being returned to the Sheikh Shams cemetery.

To our Western eyes, this posthumous assault on Du’a’s body is the final insult. But according to Ms Nammi, it did at least establish that she was still a virgin and innocent of the ‘crime’ of which she had been accused.

However, Ms Nammi believes the mere fact that Du’a had run off with a Sunni boy would have been enough to have her sentenced to death.

Meanwhile, the cycle of tit-for-tat murders continues in Iraq. In this instance, in an apparent act of retaliation for Du’a’s murder, 23 Yezidi workers were attacked and killed two weeks later, apparently by members of an armed Sunni group.

The men were travelling on a bus between Mosul and Bashika when their vehicle was halted by the gunmen, who made them disembark before killing them.

Tomorrow evening, Ms Nammi, founding member of the Iranian and Kurdish Women’s Rights Organisation, will lead a group of women meeting in Shoreditch, East London, to remember Du’a Khalil Aswad and give back to her the dignity torn from her by her violent death.

The women are pledged to campaign against the entrenched beliefs which lead to such senseless deaths - and the fact that the people who commit these crimes are not regarded as murderers, but as heroes of the community.

According to Ms Nammi, there have been an estimated 10,000 cases of honour killings in the Kurdistan region in the past decade.

Under Iraqi law, the punishment for anyone found guilty of an honour killing is just six months in prison.

“Something has to be done to stop this,” says Ms Nammi, who came to Britain in 1996. “There is an epidemic of so-called honour killings. It is almost routine and utterly unacceptable.

“We would greatly appreciate any contribution from the British Government in preventing these murders of women in Iraq.”

Ms Nammi has the support of Amnesty International.

“This young girl’s murder is truly abhorrent and her killers must be brought to justice,” says Kate Allen, Amnesty International UK Director.

“Unless the authorities respond vigorously to this and other reports of crimes in the name of “honour”, we must fear for the future of the women in Iraq.”

For the sake of 17-year-old Du’a, an innocent girl who simply fell in love with the wrong man, it is all too little, too late.

Friends, we all know America is God’s chosen land of freedom: while the rest of the world lives under communist rule, Americans are free to work as many jobs as they desire, free from any kind of corporate media censorship or control. Our unfettered access to information is what makes the American mind the most informed and knowledgable of all the world. We created the internet, and the free corporate press and even created FOX News which is well-known to be the greatest source of open information in the world.

But some America-haters don’t see it that way. Hiding in our midst is the sick American Civil Liberties Union, like a deadly Made-in-Mexico knife about to plunge into America’s patriotic heart. The ACLU has been whining and whinging that the CIA and the God Warriors of Guantanamo Bay, have been torturing terrorists, which is in itself ridiculous. The ACLU, using sick bait-and-switch deceits and lie-beral ambulance-chasing lawyer shenanigans, opened a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit to request information in regards to “documents related to the treatment of prisoners in U.S. custody overseas.” As STR’s readers know, the lavish treatment people receive in the US’s well-funded network of oversea’s prisons would make all of Sudan want to move there.

Pray tell me ACLU lefty snivelers: since when could you do a FOIA request in the Soviet Union? Or in North Korea and the other Access of Evil countries like Venezuela and islamofascist Haiti? The opulent lifestyle we lead here is something the enemies of freedom fear and loathe, and our civility may be taken as softness by these dangerous thugs and militarized gangsters. The CIA openly gave several critical documents to the ACLU, politely explaining exactly and precisely what was going on:

This document shows all sorts of critical information that must be kept private for America’s safety. The ACLU would have all the vital secrets of America revealed to dangerous terrorists, does North Korea or China reveal such details about their country’s innermost workings? No they do not!

Americans can never allow themselves to be outdone by communist China or mad cower-crazed Sudan. Many of these countries are several steps up on the US now, able to censor all essential information their government deems too dangerous, and torture (if necessary) and kill (when permitted by judges) those people who do not respect the integrity of the governments decisions. Why are we not keeping pace and following their excellent example? Why are we having to outsource these excellent prison jobs to Syria to handle dangerous Iraqis, minor-age combatants and other terrorist menaces? Are there no Americans able to do these kinds of jobs here? These would be excellent forms of employment, allowing a hard-working man to do God’s work with knives and hot chains and whatever other implements are required, then come home and feed his close-knit Christian family.

STR’s readership must take a stand for freedom and democracy: say ‘No!’ to the sick, despicable ACLU. Say ‘No!’ to revealing America’s closest secrets. Never allow documents to be released for public viewing ever again, whether the CIA, voting records, or political party spending. It is time to tear-down the hideous Freedom of Information Act, once and for all.

Always Right,
