Maybe
these arrests will lead to the discovery of the plane, and to the
revelation of what really happened when it disappeared. Note also the
unexplained cargo — it would seem likely that whatever was in there was
tied to the plane’s disappearance, and may be involved in its
reappearance if it is somewhere being […]

One
might almost get the impression that the Indonesian government was
sympathetic to these jihad terrorist mass murderers. But surely that
couldn’t be it, could it? Everyone knows that the Indonesians are
moderates, and eschew all “extremism.” Don’t they? “Paradise for
terrorists: 36 Bali bombers that killed 92 Australians are walking
free,” by Paul Toohey, […]

As
we all know, the Islam taught by the Taliban is a twisting and
hijacking of the Religion of Peace, which eschews all forms of violence.
And so why are Islamic seminaries in Islamabad collecting funds for the
Taliban? Don’t they study the Qur’an in these seminaries and see how
the Taliban is taking verses […]

Muhammad
commanded: “Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him”
(Bukhari 9.84.57). This is still the position of all the schools of
Islamic jurisprudence, both Sunni and Shi’ite. Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi,
the most renowned and prominent Muslim cleric in the world, has stated:
“The Muslim jurists are unanimous that apostates must be punished, yet
they […]

“This
latest case, according to Doug Wigdor of Wigdor, LLC., who is heading
up a larger federal civil case with now more than a dozen plaintiffs,
only illustrates further Macy’s consistent targeting of innocent
customers.” And yet Juweria Khalid admits that she put the earrings in
her purse. Even if she did have the best […]

More
idiocy from Suicidal Britannia: “British soldiers may not hold their
enemies in Afghanistan as prisoners for longer than 96 hours because to
do so would breach their human rights, a judge ruled yesterday. It means
that Taliban chieftains captured by British troops must be freed to
fight again within four days.” But as the […]

This
report doesn’t give a hint as to Musab Mohamed Masmari’s motive; it
doesn’t even give his full name. But in another report from February, we
learn that an informant told the FBI before this attack that Masmari
may be planning “terrorist activity,” and that Masmari “opined that
homosexuals should be exterminated.” This incident should […]

The
most disturbing aspect of the entire Benghazi scandal, after the deaths
of the four Americans, is the Obama Administration’s decision to blame
the freedom of speech for the attack and imprison a man for the crime of
breaking Islamic law. That is one part of this whole affair that could
have repercussions for decades […]

“The
government has struggled to consolidate control in the vast and mostly
desert country, which is effectively ruled by a patchwork of local
militias and awash in heavy weapons looted from Gathafi’s arsenals.”
This is the Libya that Barack Obama has brought us. And it is only going
to get worse. “Two soldiers in Libya […]

In
Samarra is the Al-Askari Mosque, a Shi’ite shrine, so this is likely to
have been Sunni jihadists targeting Shi’ite pilgrims as part of the
ongoing Sunni-Shi’ite jihad. But no one dares explore the motives and
goals of the perpetrators of murderous attacks like this one; to do so
would be “Islamophobic.” “Car bomb goes […]

“The
Taliban are trying to show that they are able to target the safest
province in the country,” said Zahir Saadat, a member of parliament from
Panjshir. “In terms of propaganda, this attack could be [a] big
achievement for Taliban.” It looks as if it already is: twelve dead at
the hands of the people […]

“The
latest car bomb comes five days before the World Economic Forum is
scheduled to start in Abuja. Nigeria’s government had announced that
6,000 soldiers and police would be deployed to protect next week’s
summit but with world leaders including China’s premier to attend, the
insecurity now means the event may not go ahead.” And […]
