Holy Crap! What's Unfriendly Local Khomeinist Zafar Bangash Doing In A Photo With Future Former Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow?

(Hat tip: Ho Hum)



The sign behind them looks like it says "DEFEND FREE SPEECH," which, given Zafar's Khomeinist proclivities and Olivia's socialist ones, makes no sense at all.

Update: Here's a taste of one of Zafar's recent rants (this one's about the "new" Middle East in which Iran is most puissant of all):

The first major blow to the old order was delivered by the Islamic Revolution in Iran in 1979 turning it into a two-legged stool. Instead of welcoming the Islamic Revolution, the reactionaries went into a huddle to conspire to maintain their grip on power. Egypt signed a peace treaty with the Zionist entity; Turkey was taken over by a military junta while the Ba‘thist terrorists led by Saddam Hussein were encouraged, supported and armed to attack the fledgling Islamic State of Iran. The establishment of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) comprising Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Oman quickly followed. The aim of all the Gulf monarchies, singly and jointly, was to preserve their illegitimate hold on power, surround the Islamic State by providing military bases to the imperialist powers, and as a result guarantee the continued expansion of the Zionist cancer in the Holy Land.

Intoxicated by military might, the Zionists and their imperialist sponsor, the US, attacked Lebanon in June 1982 to destroy the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO). Tens of thousands of Palestinians were massacred including the gruesome slaughter at Sabra and Shatila refugee camps in Beirut. The PLO was driven out of Lebanon, and hence had to set up shop in Tunisia, far from the borders of Occupied Palestine. The Zionists and the imperialists thought they had solved the problem of Palestine permanently. American, French and British military forces occupied Lebanon under the cover of the UN flag, to keep Israel safe.

The emergence of Hizbullah inspired by the example of the Islamic Revolution in Iran not only drove the imperialist forces out of Lebanon but also took on the Zionists giving them a bloody nose...

Oh, Zaffy, you sweet-talkin' devil. No wonder Livy wants to rub shoulders with you.

Update: Here's the question of the month from Zafar's hellacious rag:

This Month (Sic) Question

Muslims will rise as a dominant force in global affairs by adhering to Islamic principles of fairness and justice, not the demonic ideology of takfirism.

• Agree
• Disagree
• Don't know 

Gee, do you think the word "demonic" is a clue to how you're supposed to vote? ;)
