My new hero alongside Ayaan Hirsi Ali. Speak up and show what Islam is really about. Terrific!

Why is she uncovered?

STONE HER !

I don't know that woman and I never met that woman, But I know her type. I bet she knows what's best for me. I bet she would be proud to call herself a progressive. I bet she would think I am a Neanderthal narrow minded neocon bigot. And boy is she lucky I can't put my hands thru this computer screen and grab hold of her arrogant neck. But that's just me!

I agree! However, I think the importance of this story is that is demonstrates what Canada is about, or at least what it is becoming, more so than Islam.

This is awesome--I'm still listening to the first video--thanks Charles!

Ok, this guy is a bit rude.

I support his purpose...but he didn't need to be so arrogant and obnoxious about it.

Body language, she has crossed her arms and sat back. Nothing he says is what she wants to hear. B**ch.

Thanks for posting this, Charles.

I'm proud to work for Mr. Levant's online journal Shotgun.

[Link: westernstandard.blogs.com...]

Just started watching. Who is the ass-clown on the left-hand side of the table? Her body language and facial expressions seem to indicate that she is fighting back a desire to do bodily harm to the heretic that she sees before her. Lawyer? low-level bureaucrat in a low-level bureaucracy whose sense of personal importance is being threatened? She is obviously emotionally involved, and obviously not on Mr. Levant's side.

Levant is one tough cookie -- he is the wrong person to mess with when it comes to such things...the AHRC is a farce and a joke, another left wing outfit that desires to take away free speech, not provide it.

Sad, sad, sad...

I like how she sits there during his opening statement with her arms folded like she is pissed and is going to really get after him.

Ezra then proceeds to destroy her logic.

Couldn't hear her question. I have the volume turned up as high as it will go and his voice is hard to hear, but her question is impossible.

Charles, thank you.

He has every right to be obnoxious and rude. Being yanked up in front of a kangaroo court, like that.

I'd be obnoxious and rude too.

"he's dead by the way, so don't think I've offended him." Brilliant!

"i have the right to publish." "even if i offend".

All three videos were brilliant. I loved his answer to the question of his intent- because he had the right to do so. And his question in the final video was also spot on- do these grievance theater productions cause more or less harm to the ummah?

Great videos- thanks for sharing them, Charles.

Beg to differ (even considering his use of the expletive "bloody").

Given what's he's being hit with, he's a citizen in righteous indignation and he has a right to be so.

I'm watching video 2, and Levant is informed on the law while the inquisitor is either grossly disingenuous in asking about Levant's intent or either she's shamefully ignorant about the fundamentals of the law. I don't blame him for his outrage at all.

Have you ever been before a " Human Rights Panel " . Believe me they are one step away from a police state. The people on them and the ideas they represent are the worst kind of pseudo-intellectual bullshit on this planet. And the cost involved in having to defend yourself before a panel that assumes you are guilty can be astronomical. It is difficult not to harbor ill will towards them and to not hold the entire process in contempt!

Thought crime...This is way overboard. Appalling really that the man has to explain himself to a the Canadian government over publishing stupid cartoons!

And the asshat lefty on the left can't tolerate his truth -- she rolls her eyes, crosses her arms and feels as if she is being attacked by a one of the unwashed masses who will not do as she says, never mind what she does. There is a reason Canada exists: they are what's left of the Tories and other Monarchists who had no stomach for liberty and its price. Fuck her and her kangaroo court arrogance.

I thought he was brilliant. I would be obnoxious and rude as well if my country was trying to take away my freedom of speech. She had all the body language of every liberal I know...the superiority and disbelief at this neanderthal racist/bigot/mustbeaconservative guy.

Palestinian gunmen attack school in Gaza

Palestinian gunmen stormed the American International School in the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip on Saturday, smashing windows, seizing computers and torching buses but causing no injuries, security sources said.

In a leaflet left behind after the attack, the gunmen claimed affiliation with al Qaeda and vowed to attack other symbols of "immorality" throughout the coastal territory.

/that's right, education is immoral in Islam

Are there transcripts of the other two videos?

Opening statement

I'm embarrassed to be a member of the same species as that woman. If she had an ounce of either courage or sense she would have stood at the end of the opening statement, said "You're absolutely right; I'm outta here."

An outrage, and Levant has been rather remarkably restrained, I'd say. Can we vote for him for President - even if he can't serve, he's better than anything we've got running right now!

This is...

AWESOME!

Thank god someone has the nuts to stand up to this bullshit!

Well, maybe Youtube has silenced him.

When he speaks of the process itself being the punishment, I was reminded of all the clinton "enemies" who ended up miraculously getting audited by the IRS. The islamists learned well to use the bureaucracy against the citizenry.

I say, shame on those who are so blinded by moral equivalence. And three cheers for Ezra Levant! I so admire his courage in standing up to small-minded bureaucrats like this lady. I'm going to subscribe to his magazine just to support him. I admire balls.

Levant nailed it right here.

This commission is applying Saudi values, not Canadian values.

Between Ezra Levant and Mark Steyn, these fascist, left-wing, Big Brother-wannabees at the Canadian Human Rights Commission may wish to go after smaller thought criminals in the future. Bullies don't like it when the intended victim is brave and strong enough to fight back.

The speaker in this video is inspiring for his unwillingness to compromise his (erstwhile?) liberties one iota: A lot of Americans who are willing at times to compromise their principles to get along could learn a great deal from him.

Levant is a fricking hero, and I don't toss the word 'hero' around lightly.

A man was in a long line at Wal-Mart. As he got to the register he realized he had forgotten to get condoms, so he asked the checkout girl if she could have some brought up to the register.

She asked, 'What size condoms?'

The customer replied that he didn't know. She asked him to drop his pants. He did.

She reached over the counter, grabbed hold of him and called over the intercom, 'One box of large condoms, Register 5.'

The next man in line thought this was interesting, and like most of us, was up for a cheap thrill.

When he got up to the register, he told the checker that he too had forgotten to get condoms, and asked if she could have some
brought to the register for him.

She asked him what size, and he stated that he didn't know. She asked him to drop his pants. He did.

She gave him a quick feel, picked up the intercom and said, 'One box of medium-sized condoms, Register 5.'

A few customers back was this teenage boy. He thought what he had seen was way too cool. He had never had any type of sexual contact with a live female, so he thought this was his chance.

When he got to the register he told the checker he needed some condoms.

She asked him what size and he said he didn't know.? She asked him to drop his pants and he did. She reached over the counter, ga ve him a quick squeeze, then picked up the intercom and said...

(you'll love this one...)

This abuse of power by the Canadian government is breathtaking. Vile government abuse of the people is what our founding fathers were intending to prevent with the Bill of Rights and the Constitution.

I love his passion. I love how articulate he is. I love how he brings up all these miserable examples (in the third video) of violent behavior by Islamists in Alberta, including the torching of this own mosque by a "fool" who accidentally doused himself with the gasoline, then while rolling around on the ground, allowed his cell phone to fall out on to the ground, so the police were able to track him down. "This is what causes the people to hate Islam."

re: #111 Nevergiveup

I have a friend who was found guilty by the NYC Human Rights Thing. That of course was predetermined, However, he fought it and the decision was OVERTURNED by the NY SUPREME COURT. It was costly to him in both emotional strain and money. For my Canuck friends: Can this farce of a panel be appealed to a real court up there?

Yes. I'm a little hazy on the specifics but a man in Saskatchewan was found guilty (shocka) by the HRC for placing an ad in a newspaper listing, not the complete text, but just the chapter and verse numbers of Bible passages condemning homosexuality. About 6 years later, his "conviction" was overturned in appellate court. Of course, by then the damage was done. Like your friend, he paid a huge cost emotionally and financially.

To think that Mumia Abu Jamal has streets named after him in Europe when people like Mr. Levant are being persecuted like this makes me wanna retch. If it is possible to nominate the names of streets in your community, I would strongly suggest you put in a word for Ezra Levant Way.

As for that woman in the interviews, oh, yes, I know her type. She's one of those sanctimonious types who don't want to hear what you have to say. They are on a personal crusade and God be damned.

In islamic countries, the islamists threaten violence and carry out violence as an example for others to stay within islamist bounds.

In the West, however, threatening violence can in and of itself be considered a crime. What's an islamist to do? Why- they can turn to lawsuits, and sue their critics into silence. To them, Mr. Levant is the example to serve for others- do as he did and we'll sue you or otherwise legally harass you into silence, too.

Even if Mr. Levant wins, the islamists may already have victory if others have been or will be intimidated into keeping criticisms of islam to themselves.

Hmmm. Excellent defense by Mr. Levant - my only criticism is allowing the term "racism" to creep into the discussion (along with his inclusion of the term Arab in the description of the synagogue fire bomber moron) - the point here is all about religion - not race.

Islam is not a race. It's a belief.

And as such...a valid target in the realm of the battle of ideas.

And absolutely, Mr. Levant owes neither the whining jihadists nor the government aparatchik participating in the farce anything but his contempt.

I completely agree. I don't think a christian would turn the gay printer into the human rights commission. I think it would be just as likely for the gay printer to turn down the business, and we'd never hear about it. Now if the customer is gay, and wants business cards printed for this wallpapering company...then I think the printer would still have the right of refusal...but would be out of line to do it. The printer might never mention the reason, and they gay guy wouldn't know why he was refused service, but morally, it wouldn't be right.

The most offensive element here is there is no motion to dismiss. They have to take every single complaint seriously. there is no ability to say, "even if you are right on the facts, you are wrong on the law." In american courts, and probably in normal canadian courts, you can file a motion to dismiss or demurrer, that literally says "even if you are right on the facts, you are wrong on the law." Further, we require you to produce at least a little evidence to support all the elements of the crime or cause of action, or else face a motion for summary judgment,

Great article today in the UK

Why Hillary Allowed BIll To Seduce Any Woman In Sight

Often, Bill would arrive at the Oval Office feeling buoyant, "almost whistling as he whipped through papers," recalled adviser David Gergen. Then the phone would ring and Hillary would be on the line.

"His mood would darken," wrote Gergen, "his attention wander, and hot words would spew out. Had we seen the outrageous things his enemies were saying about him now? Why was his staff screwing him again? What,I would wonder, had she said to him now?"

Even more disconcerting were Bill's evening phone calls - what Communications Director George Stephanopoulos called the "nightcap" - when Bill would chew out an adviser while Hillary was nearby.

"It was completely at odds with the emotional tenor of the relationship that person had with Bill," said one top official.

"It was vicious. When she walked out of the room, everything changed. Then the tone would change completely and he would say: 'Why don't you come over and watch football?'"

In meetings, Hillary's dissatisfaction could curdle the atmosphere when she directed her ire at his subordinates. "It was her way of saying to Bill: 'You are incompetent. Look at how your staff treats you,'" said White House adviser Robert Boorstin.

"Rather than insult Bill directly, she used the staff. People were scared of her because they knew she could chop off their testicles if she so chose. You did not cross Hillary."

Adviser David Gergen described how, with a dozen or so of her husband's aides gathered round, Hillary would let loose a tirade. "She would launch a deadly missile straight at [Bill's] heart and just before it hit, the missile would explode, the shrapnel hitting the staff."

Her vocabulary had a common theme: that the President's men were "wimps." Recalled one aide: "It was: 'You don't have balls, no guts.' The language was so striking. It seemed that every criticism was dual purpose and could apply to him, but at the last minute she didn't apply it to him."

"Who are those guys?" - Butch Cassidy

Someone should monitor the mosques for CAIR, Wahabbist, Islamofascist hate sermons, hate newsletters.

There is just cause based on the hate mosques like the Finsbury Park mosque which celebrated the acts of their "magnificent 19" of the 9/11 sneak attack on the US.

Another Canadian to be proud of. While I'm an unabashed Yank of many long years, I've got Canadian Cousins who've fought in the GWOT and now their country is under attack itself from the Islamofascists. Hope Canada stands even taller in this fight because certainly individual Canadians like Mr. Ezra Levant do stand very tall and firm.

The way the UK is going, Canada might be one refuge for good Brits looking for a place with freedom and perhaps Canadians will maintain that freedom for many long years too. Here's hoping.

Can I change my fiskie vote to the Canadian Human Rights Commission ?

This is the exact reason why I voted them for the Fiskie, and Steyn for the Fallaci. HRCs are far more dangerous than some jerk who is on a cable network that no one watches.

I want to see a full length video - and I would hope and bet it would become one of the most famous videos of modern history.

Moral of the story:
Don't offend the holy prophet big-mo or the left-wing fascists will do what they do best - censor. Give a left-wing an excuse to censor and stomp on free speech -- and they will take it... Just like dangling drugs in front of an adict.

Leftiwng group-think is simple: do not offend any victim group that they deem a victim group. (and they get to chose what constitutes a victim group) Free speech stops and the door of the left-wing bureaucrat and their chosen victim babies. obey.

re: #198 A.W.

The most offensive element here is there is no motion to dismiss. They have to take every single complaint seriously. there is no ability to say, "even if you are right on the facts, you are wrong on the law."

It sounded from Mr. Levant that some of these people are not judges, or even lawyers on these panels. I find it more offensive that this is even considered legal. The islamists need to realize they have the right to be offended but we have the right to offend. I really agreed with Levant when he asked who do they really harm. They're harming themselves.

This is a man who could use support for his free speech- I highly doubt you'll find this guy calling LGF names.

Ezra hit it out of the park. This guy deserves a Fallaci award no doubt. You could tell the Inquisitor had nowhere near the smarts to debate him. He shredded each of her questions with buzzsaw ferocity. I hope she felt psychically crushed by his righteous indignation.

THANK YOU Charles for continuing to expose the utter baselessness and useless (and downright harmful) idiotarianism of the vast, left-wing, thoughtcrime policing, PC conspiracy.

Pack is coming back and it looked like they had stopped the Seahawks. - aw an offside penalty.

I'll bet half of those Seattle boys don't even remember what snow is.

He said that IBM is employing the idiot who brought this action? Does the employment contract have a clause about acting in a manner that harms the reputation of the employer? IBM needs to look into this. Their reputation is now at risk.

3rd down Hasselback sacked. Punting

I think this is going to be a great game. It has weather, a cheese head crowd, good offenses, and oh did I say football weather! Go Packers!

Loved the contempt steaming from the Petite Inquisitorix. When Exra hit the "Saudi trained imam" line in the first video, it was like a dagger (where are you Sen. Shumer?), a dagger to her heart. She crossed her arms in rejection so fast to stop her hatred from bleeding out. You have only to watch her to know that Ezra would be boiled in oil if she has her way. I hope this gets wide coverage in Canada and maybe they will come to their senses. I do agree with other commenters, she is quite a Hillary.

I want an "I Hunt Idiotarians!" T-shirt and Bumpersticker

I just made that up!

Hey we get snow in Seattle. Half the drivers see a snow and drive into the closest ditch, saves the hassle of doing it latter.

Fascinating. it is clear that this woman believes there is a legal way to think and an illegal way. Sort of like the Russians used to imprison dissenters in mental hospitals under the supposition that dissenters were insane and a detriment to society.

I would like the same sort of questioning diected at any practicing Muslim.

I nearly forgot that part. I won't be buying any IBM products until they clean house. Get to it, IBM!

You can bet that if it was a conversation she would have interrupted and liberal women are wont to do.

I'm not a "Green", but I think we can and should do some for these magnificent creatures before they're wiped out.

Spent the better part of a day at the San Diego zoo watching 'em last year.

re: #241 Billy Hank

How exactly are you using the word Hilliary. As an adjective to be descriptive or as a verb: as in to do a Hilliary?

Just questioning Muslims is considered a hate crime by the left.

Make sure to listen to the final tape. It's good.

What I don't understand is why the same crowd is now in her camp?
I had heard basically the same thing from a friend whose ad guy was bill's ad guy on the campaign. He said bill was so jovial then hill would walk in the room and the vein in bill's head would start to throb and his mood became dark.

Final score:

Levant: 1
Wormtongue: pwned

JWM

"used to"? It's happening right now with Putin's opposition.

Wooo Hooo! That was GREAT!

Muddy and slippery. Perfect.

Also, to me, she looks like she's pretending to write when Mr. Levant is speaking about the Synagogue bombing.

She really exposed her ignorance when she answered his logical question with the lame, 'ah well I have to take it all into consideration...blah blah crap!

AND why does SHE get to do that!?

The rule of law doesn't apply over her 'authority'. Her job grants her rights to ignore any 'other' Canadians rights in any capacity that she chooses, regardless of law?
This is Canada.

This pisses me off so much...

The CBC called Levant a "right winger" -- he should file a grievance.

I just got through watching all three videos. Without a doubt Mr. Levant is a real life hero. As several lizards noted, her body language said it all. Mr. Levant knows the appropriate way to deal with such a farcical attack is to attack the attacker. Never, ever embrace your accuser. Always fire into an ambush. This was really inspiring, and I'm a very cynical sort who doesn't inspire easily. Bravo!

Snow pretty good. It's going pretty wild, 21 points in the first 5 minutes. Go Hawks!

Not calling for any secondary boycotts, they don't do any good anyway. It is reputation and publicity that matters. I'm confident that 95% of IBM management know nothing of this. If any lizards can get the word to them they may act.

In the article it talks about a friend overhearing Bill rocking Chelsea singing: "I want a diiivvvorce. I want a divvvooorce." Charming.

Great article over at Cato: The Myth of the Rational Voter - explains some of the psychology. If you do nothing else, download it and scroll through to see the fascinating graphs comparing different types of people.
