From Jihad Watch:
All right. So they deported some Methodist eighth graders, but surely this time the British authorities are going after Anjem Chaudary, or Abu Qatada, or Abu Izzadeen, or any of the4,000 other jihadists in Britain?
Nope. This time they're deporting a Coptic Christian family that faces persecution once back in Egypt. Please sign the petition.
Another Absurd Britannia Alert: "Appeal to save the Mansour family from deportation," from GoPetition, July 4 (thanks to Ibrahim):
On The 1st July 2009 @ 6.30am the Mansour family were taken from their home in Moss Side and moved to a holding centre in Sussex after their legal team failed to help them.Their legal advisers, who were paid a considerable amount by the Mansours, did not adequately represent them due to staff sickness. This has left the Mansour family in a critical situation.
The family came to England 4 years ago from Egypt because they feared for their lives. They have suffered persecution and worse from religious fundamentalist groups and the police department because of their Christian beliefs. They believe that their lives and those of their 5 young children are at risk if they return to Egypt.

Is anyone else having connection problems to sites today? That petition is about the 3rd or 4th this morning to be AWOL.
Yes, I've been having problems since yesterday.
As of this morning both eBay and CNN (and a couple other news-sites)have "cannot display" messages, as have the Ayn Rand Institute, Cato Institute, The Rule of Reason, Malkin, the gopetition site. Why these weird scattered outages? Atlas, JW, GP, and many others seem to be fine.
Btw, checked out the Borders employees' site and found a debate going on with about 80% complaining about those nasty "racist" conservatives who come in the store and have the gall to criticize Teh One. Or to buy Mark Levin's book. Or to ask for Glenn Beck's new one.
Hah.
Now I really don't care if that whole outfit tanks.
It doesn't make any sense that NK would attack those sites. Well, maybe it does, they all stand for unmitigated freedom.
Maybe NK just doesn't care about the Jihad one way or the other.
That wouldn't be surprising, would it?
I just unplugged (as in, from the wall outlet) everything and rebooted and now it's all fine. Very strange. Wish I understood more about how these things work.
