This is the United States of America -- where Christians are being asked by Rick Perry supporters to not vote for Romney and Huntsman:

"The view that Mormons are not Christians is the widely and strongly held view among Protestant pastors. That does not mean they do not respect Mormons as persons, share their values on family and have much in common. Yet, they simply view Mormonism as a distinct religion outside of basic teachings of Christianity. Many of these pastors may know Mormons who consider themselves Christians, but Protestant pastors overwhelmingly do not consider them such," said Stetzer. "I know this is an unpleasant question to many, and one that some will use as a hammer on evangelicals."

Mormons differ from most Protestants in how they view the Trinity. They also have scripture in addition to the Bible, such as the Book of Mormon, and believe in prophets such as Joseph Smith, Jr., who founded the Latter Day Saint movement.  (Stetzer, Lifeway Research Study 2010)

Thanks to the good work by our team, the All-Parliamentary Ahmadiyya Group in the United Kingdom has lost the support of most members of the House of Commons who participated in the first meeting, the mainstream media, all the Muslim intellectuals that attended the previous meeting, and have been forced to switch gears to 'international' extremism.

The first meeting, which we reported on: 

was called by the Honourable Siobhain McDonagh, the precursor to this PG (in 2010) was meant to discuss the Lahore attacks, but was used to bounce half-baked local media stories off the walls of Parliament and then into full-fledged stories in the mainstream media.

So, the Chicago Tribune censors the political cartoon strip Doonesbury.

Here is what the editor had to say:

To be sure, “Doonesbury” is a satirical cartoon, but the remarks are serious enough that we cannot publish the strip without more information, context and a response from Palin.

Anyone remember the Danish cartoon story?  And how free speech was supreme at that time.  Doonesbury is political satire.  Sarah Palin is a politician.  The writer of the strip is a guy named Trudeau, who has been doing this for ages - and he received an advance copy of the book.  He is not lying.

Gerald Caplan of The Globe and Mail, Canada, has written a questioning piece on why mainstream media spends so much valuable time and resources in promoting Islamophobia.

He begins: 

For a number of years,  the United States has had a reckless fiscal policy driven by wars and defence spending.  The country has been sailing on not much more than its inexorable momentum -- a centuries-old legacy of good governance, a democracy that could elect an African-American with the middle name of Hussein, and a remarkable work ethic and business drive.

All this had so far succeeded in hiding the ugly underbelly of the US Empire:

• Covert military actions in 120 countries
• Marginalising dissent and minority political views
• Media bias towards Israel and promotion of Islamophobia
• Media calling 'greed' 101 other names, but not 'greed'
• Wars of aggression, assassinations, torture and other war crimes
• No voice for the average Joe

All this has been underwritten and underpinned by a vast culture of lies.  The economic monster has come out of the esoteric confines of computers and models into a hard cold fact: a lack of confidence in the ability of the United States to repay its debts.  The proverbial rubber has hit the ground.
