Lutfur
Rahman, mayor of Tower Hamlets, dubs the BBC “Islamophobic bullies.”
This ought to show the BBC that such charges are merely a deflection
tactic, designed to cast the onus away from a person accused of
wrongdoing (i.e., an Islamic jihadist, or in this case, a corrupt
official) and onto the accuser. The irony here […]

Here
yet again we see how Pakistan’s blasphemy law is used to victimize
non-Muslims. It is a human rights abuse of catastrophic proportions, but
apparently the global “human rights community” is too busy worrying
about “Islamophobia” to take any serious notice. How many more innocent
people will have to die before Western Christian leaders decide […]

The
Mirror tells us that “the militia man turned his back on his
multi-millionaire lifestyle after becoming radicalised two years ago, it
is claimed.” In the video, he repeatedly quotes the Qur’an, explaining
and justifying his actions on the basis of Islamic teaching. So how
exactly was he “radicalized”? In what way is he misunderstanding […]

Maybe
if we tiptoe around the poor dears, not saying or doing anything that
could conceivably arouse their ire, this kind of thing won’t happen.
After all, we don’t want to talk too much about it, because as we all
know, “talk about extreme, militant Islamists and the atrocities that
they have perpetrated globally might […]

Tahir
Alam, chair of governors at the school, insisted that the controversy
over this was a manifestation of “Islamophobia”: “I believe it is a
witch hunt based on all sorts of false allegations which have been
repeated over many weeks. I also believe it is motivated by anti-Muslim,
anti-Islam sentiment that is also sort of […]

Isn’t
“insulting Islamic sanctities” as illegal in the U.K. as it is in Iran?
My latest in FrontPage: A British-Iranian woman, Roya Saberi Negad
Nobakht, has spent the last five months in Tehran’s notorious Evin
Prison for writing on Facebook that Iran’s government was “too
Islamic.” Arrested during a visit to Iran to visit family members, she
[…]

Khurram
Sher is a “31-year-old Montreal-born pathologist.” As a doctor, he is
well educated and — even with Canada’s socialist medical system — fairly
wealthy. Does he know that poverty and ignorance cause terrorism? Isn’t
the U.S. State Department ready with money and education projects for
him, to turn him away from the path of […]

This
was an Afghan policeman — a unit commander named Naqibullah. Ostensibly
an exponent of the Karzai regime, America’s ostensible ally. The
problem is that there is no reliable way to distinguish “moderates” from
Islamic jihadists, and the politically correct U.S. command in
Afghanistan makes no attempt to do so, anyway. Such inquiries would be
[…]

“The
regulator said last month that it was monitoring concerns about the
Worcester-based charity, which provides aid to Syria and works in Burma,
Kashmir and Palestine, after The Sun newspaper published an article on
its front page, which it said showed Adeel Ali, a volunteer for the
charity, posing with two masked gunmen.” You can […]

Hamed
Abdel-Samad is an Egyptian born political scientist, historian and
author, now living in Germany. He is the son of a Sunni imam, but has
dedicated the recent years of his life to warning against the political
side of Islam. Via 10news.dk, translated by Sandra and Nicolai Sennels from Welt: He claims Islam to have “fascistic characteristics” […]

Via 10news.dk,
translated from German Unzensuriert by Nicolai Sennels: The Austrian
Islam Act (1912) should be amended, on the initiative of Foreign
Minister Sebastian Kurz. The renewal of the oldest Islamic Law in
Western Europe is to take precedence over Austrian state law. The
“Dialogue with Islam” initiative was started by Kurz during his time […]

[Note
from Robert Spencer: I have always maintained, and strongly believe
today, that the struggle to defend freedom and human rights from jihad
terror and Sharia supremacism is not a racial issue. People of all races
hold the Islamic supremacist ideology. The charge of "racism" against
counter-jihadists is simply a tool that Leftists and Islamic […]

The
Board of Inquiry in Cairo monitoring the “sectarian violence that
continues to cross Egypt after the overthrow of President Morsi, has
documented in a report released on Tuesday, March 25 the endemic forms
of violence and abuse that continue to be perpetrated against Coptic
Christians in many parts of the country, particularly in the […]

Within
the context of keeping the Syrian jihad alive, it seems there is no end
to the attempts of some Islamic clerics to legitimize otherwise
forbidden behavior in order to gratify the sexual urges of the
jihadis and keep them fighting Syrian president Bashar Assad. First,
there was the now infamous “sex-jihad” fatwa, which holds that any […]
