Meet Another Muslim Peacenik

An item that has not been--and likely won't be--published on the Ceej site: Mark Steyn's withering take down of a non-gay poseur. An item that has shown up: a letter by an Ottawa Official Muslim commending Official Jewry for criticizing scary markers of doom and the Swiss dis of minarets.

 
FYI, the letter-writer is the same Official Muslim who is pushing for--wait for it--a Department of Peace. (Paging G. Orwell!):
The Muslim Coordinating Council of the National Capital Region, which has 40 member organizations devoted to serving our community and our country, strongly supports the creation of a Canadian Department of Peace.
In a world that is being devastated by wars, violence, conflicts and violations of human rights, we urgently need leadership that can meet the challenge through wisdom, goodwill, compassion, respect for others and loyalty to the fundamental principles of human rights, justice and dignity without discrimination and political considerations.

Canada, with its diversity, history of accommodation and respect throughout the world, is ideally suited to participate in this exercise, and indeed to take a leadership role. We need a professional institution within Canada that will enable Canada to boldly assume the leadership in treating the root causes of frustration, despair, hopelessness and ultimately conflict. We have to build a culture of peace, justice, mutual respect, dignity and trust as an intrinsic part of our democratic principles and practices within Canada and abroad. We have to build a better world for ourselves and our coming generations. We have to replace despair with hope.

Given the continued conflicts in the world, and poverty, misery and environmental degradation we have to work vigorously for nuclear disarmament and the elimination of all means of mass destruction. We must foster cooperation among professional, peace activists, human rights workers, various governmental departments and the common people throughout Canada under the creative leadership of a Canadian Department of Peace...
Everyone sing: All we are sayin' is give another intrusive P.C. "human rights" bureaucracy that accommodates the Islamic understanding of "peace" a chance...
