MOSCOW, April 2 (RIA Novosti) - A court in south Russia has banned as “extremist” a book entitled “How to Accept Islam,” officials said on Tuesday.

The Krasnoyarsk district court ordered all copies of the book to be confiscated and destroyed.

Investigators, citing linguistic experts, said the book, by Muhammad Suleiman Ashkara, encouraged religious hatred.

The court said the book was discovered during a May 2011 raid at the Krasnoyarsk home of a man suspected of links to an extremist Islamic organization.

I wish I’d stuck with Russian 101 in college. I have a feeling I’m going to need it in the future. I find myself agreeing with the Ruskies more than I care to admit lately.

In the US, any book on “How to NOT accept Islam” would probably suffer the same fate.

Krasnoyarskiy Krai is in Siberia. Krasnodarskiy Krai is in the South of Russia. Why is there no town mentioned. A Krai is similar to a State. It would be like reporting that a California district court banned something, without giving details. Very shoddy reporting.

Remember when the USA wasn’t so weak and fearful of its own shadow. A country that says “Hell no” to crap like this exudes confidence. This is not a confident country anymore. It’s weak and divided.

Interesting, although the Russian government still considers publicity in it's actions, this fits with a Nationalist/Russian Empire policy.

If genuine for that purpose, it is a declaration that Russia will be superior to Islam, and will not allow Islamic subversion of the state, more than it is censorship of free speech.

Obama will be jealous of this action. Maybe he’ll discover more “flexibility”.

Here's an excerpt from another interesting little article on the same site.

MOSCOW, April 1 (RIA Novosti) – Russia’s newest Baltic Fleet warship was sprinkled with holy water during a blessing over the weekend, a Navy spokesman said on Monday.

The Project 20380 Boiky corvette, which is currently undergoing sea trials, was blessed by a priest in a ceremony attended by the corvette’s crew, said Baltic Fleet spokesman Capt. 2nd Rank Vladimir Matveyev.

The priest blessed the corvette’s hull, weapons systems and superstructures, as well as the ship’s interior.

As much as I'm against censorship and book burnings, the Russians at least have the fortitude to say NO!
Americans are so eager to please everyone they end up pleasing no one and they let poison onto their land.
Sometimes NO! is the correct answer.

You are not alone in that. I likewise find myself agreeing with them more and more. The Russkies have more balls than the western world does.

Reagan must be turning over in his grave. The Russkies are becoming more free while our freedoms are eroding away.
