			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;<strong>Let us arise and take our stand for freedom as in the olden time</strong>&#8221; &#8211; as Churchill said (more or less) when Chamberlain sold Czechoslovakia to Hitler in return for a worthless promise of peace.</p>
<p><strong>Now it is the </strong><strong>freedom of the internet that is under threat, not only by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), but &#8211; even worse &#8211; by Islam.</strong></p>
<p>Pamela Geller &#8211; she who alerted America to the Ground Zero mosque plan &#8211; <a href="http://www.americanthinker.com/2010/12/islamic_supremacists_target_a.html">writes</a> at the American Thinker:</p>
<blockquote><p>Late last September, the <strong>Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN)</strong>, which assigns internet domain names, approved a huge change in the way it operates.  <strong>Europe and North America will now have five seats on its Board of Directors</strong>, instead of ten, and a new<strong> &#8220;Arab States&#8221; region will have five seats as well</strong>. &#8230;</p>
<p>This has been a long time coming.</p>
<p>Back in October 2009 &#8230; ICANN ended its agreement with the U.S. government. &#8230;</p>
<p><strong>The new agreement gave other countries (including dictatorships and rogue nations) and the U.N. the ability to set internet use policies</strong>. &#8230;</p>
<p>The ICANN action in September gave <strong>the Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC) and other unfriendly nations a prominent internet role &#8212; something they never could get during the administration of George W. Bush. </strong>&#8230;</p></blockquote>
<p>The OIC is the main engine of the <strong>stealth jihad against the West</strong>. See our post <em>Europe betrayed, </em>February 11, 2010 for its role in the quiet conquest of Europe by Islam, now well under way. (And see also <em>The trusted envoy</em>, February 20, 2010, which is about the<strong> appointment by President Obama of a Muslim terrorist sympathizer as a US representative to that nefarious organization</strong>.)</p>
<blockquote><p>In practice,<strong> the new arrangement makes it much easier for Muslim countries to dictate what stays on the internet and what doesn&#8217;t</strong>&#8230; Anti-jihad sites like &#8230; AtlasShrugs.com and the JihadWatch.org site &#8230; will likely lose their domain names.  <strong>It will become harder and harder to find the truth about jihad activity, or any resistance to it, on the internet or anywhere else. </strong>&#8230;</p>
<p>The new &#8220;net neutrality&#8221; rules approved last week by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) will just make that easier as well&#8230; [by taking] the operation of the Internet away from the heterogeneous and diversified interests of the private sector that has created it and [concentrating] it in the hands of an unelected and unaccountable board of political appointees atop a federal bureaucracy. &#8230;</p>
<p>James G. Lakely, the co-director of the Center on the Digital Economy for the Heartland Institute, a free-market think-tank &#8230; charged that FCC chairman Julius Genachowski, an Obama crony, wants to &#8220;<strong>claim for the FCC the power to decide how every bit of data is transferred from the Web to every personal computer and handheld device in the nation</strong>.&#8221;  &#8230; [in]  an attempt to l<strong>imit the freedom of internet users by subjecting what [has] always been a free-market give-and-take to government regulation</strong>.  In short, the FCC would control how all information reached personal computers.</p>
<p><strong>An internet censored by Muslim ideologues and controlled by the feds.  Do you see your freedom of speech slipping away?</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>We see all our freedom slipping away. Obama is not even selling but gifting America to Islam.</p>
