Natana
DeLong-Bas It is not surprising considering that this event took place
at John Esposito's Prince Alwaleed bin Talal Center for Muslim-Christian
Understanding (ACMCU). But cut Esposito and his Center some slack: they
hadn't scheduled the Nazi speaker because he was a Nazi, but because he
is a defender of...

Stories
like this reveal the endgame of the hysteria about "Islamophobia" that
Islamic supremacist groups such as the Hamas-linked Council on
American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and Reza Aslan's Aslan Media keep
trying to whip up. They'd like nothing better than to see the imposition
of "hate speech" laws that would...

Pope
Francis with Eastern Church leaders from Syria and Iraq But what is he
going to do about it? As Joseph Stalin once contemptuously asked, "How
many divisions does the Pope have?" And if he keeps talking about the
plight of Middle Eastern Christians, he is likely to run...

[Via
RaymondIbrahim.com, where all links appear] The worst Christian
massacre—complete with mass graves, tortured-to-death women and
children, and destroyed churches—recently took place in Syria, at the
hands of the U.S.-supported jihadi “rebels”; and the U.S. government and
its “mainstream media” mouthpiece are, as usual, silent. The massacre
took place in...

"Headteacher
Lynn Small wrote to parents and said if kids did not attend a 'racial
discrimination note' would be made on the pupil’s records and would
remain there for their school careers." In other words, their futures
would be destroyed. That's how important it is to the dhimmi British...

Lord
Pearson Baroness Warsi's argument is extremely common and extremely
disingenuous. The West Wing scene is clever, but ultimately hollow: both
Judaism and Christianity have developed interpretative traditions that
have in various ways moved away from the literal interpretation of the
cited Biblical passages. Among Muslims, by contrast, there are...

By
that they mean stonings, amputations, the execution of apostates, the
denial of free speech, etc. Only in the West do Muslim spokesmen pretend
that Sharia has no particular character and can be implemented in any
number of ways. "TTP vows to continue struggle until Shariah governs
Pakistan," from...

Al-Azhar
is the foremost institution in Sunni Islam. The Sheikh of Al-Azhar has
dedicated his life to studying the Qur'an and Islam. How has he come to
repeat the venomous slurs of greasy Islamophobes, rather than the
Qur'an's true message of peace, tolerance and love? "Sheik of Al-Azhar
Ahmad...

Our

Zaalishvili intervews the Deputy Minister of Interior Affairs of
Israel, Knesset Member Mrs. Faina Kirshenbaum. Joseph Zaalishvili: Ms.

One
of them said, as you can see in the video above, "We've come to spread
the Sharia of Allah...and we've come to kill anyone who comes in our

that Muslim organizations in the U.S. claim...

for Myselfby Ibn Warraq I am forced to address a problem that I have
ignored for many years. There are many unscrupulous people on the
Internet -- on chat rooms, Twitter, and, above all, Facebook --
pretending to be Ibn Warraq, speaking as Ibn Warraq, making comments and
analyses...

And
yet the dominant view in the West, the one that guides public policy,
is that Jaman and others like him, despite their devotion to Islam, have
drastically misunderstood and twisted its teachings, and that there is
no doctrine of warfare against Infidels in Islam. Indeed, I was
banned...

The
idea of punishing the rape victim comes straight from the Sharia. Allah
gave Muhammad a revelation requiring four male witnesses to establish
such a crime: “And those who accuse honourable women but bring not four
witnesses, scourge them (with) eighty stripes and never (afterward)
accept their testimony, they...
