“The
Hindus are lacing it with pig’s blood to send us all to hell.” That
people believe this kind of thing is amazing in itself, but it is
encouraged in the mosques, where hatred and contempt of the unbelievers,
the “most vile of created beings” (Qur’an 98:6) is inculcated on a
regular basis. Muslim leaders […]

Everywhere
it’s the same story: someone who says or writes something that is
considered, rightly or wrongly, to be critical of Islam or (as in this
case) of a group closely tied to an Islamic endeavor (in this case, the
jihad against Israel), and the response from Muslims is death threats
and calls for censorship. […]

We
all know that Iran is moderate now, and that, entranced by the
negotiating wiles of John Kerry, voluntarily agreed to give up its
nuclear program and rejoin the world community of happy, prosperous
nations marching confidently into the future. We must believe this on
pain of charges of “Islamophobia.” Yet the Iranians are open […]

It’s
risible, but highly profitable, for them to lump conservative groups in
with real haters. My piece in FrontPage today: Rest easy: the nation’s
watchdogs, patented Hate Detectors gripped in their sweaty palms, are
still on the job. The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) has released
its latest report on hate groups, and while the […]

Cindy
Lee Garcia is perfectly within her rights to object to appearing in a
movie that apparently was quite different from the one she was led to
believe was being filmed. Nonetheless, with Obama wanting the video down
in order to appease Muslims, and the Organization of Islamic
Cooperation wanting it down as part of […]

The
Imam Sweeney told them: ”You each converted to Islam some years ago.
Thereafter you were radicalised and each became an extremist, espousing
views which, as has been said elsewhere, are a betrayal of Islam.” This
enraged them, and they began a fight in the courtroom. It would have
been interesting to see Mufti Sweeney explain […]

“Girls were spared Tuesday
but extremists have in the past abducted them as sex slaves.” This is
in accord with the Qur’an, which allows men to hold “captives of the
right hand” (4:3) — essentially sex slaves he can own in addition to his
four wives. But the world will little note nor long remember […]

Mars
One pleaded for this fatwa to be lifted. They really, really, wanted
Muslims on their mission to Mars, as they have a taste for dealing with
imagined insults, fabricated grievances, feigned and manipulative
outrage, arrogant contempt for outsiders, and supremacist threats. But
Dubai’s Grand Mufti is standing firm: Mars One is just going to […]

In
the Philippines, as in Israel and elsewhere, it is taken for granted by
virtually all parties that the non-Muslim side is the one that has to
demonstrate its good faith and make a gesture of good will. These are
never reciprocated and are, indeed, understood by the jihadis as a sign
of weakness. But […]

This
is no surprise. Criticism of Sharia is a crime according to…Sharia.
Islamic law makes for a brittle and thin-skinned culture that responds
violently to any suggestion that its stonings, amputations, death
penalty for those who leave Islam, and institutionalized oppression of
women and non-Muslims might not constitute perfect justice. In the West,
this coalesces […]
