Why
were these jihadis allowed to come back to France after waging jihad in
Syria? The risk is high that returning jihadis will continue their
jihad in their home countries. This is why the governments of Britain,
the U.S. and Australia are worried about this as well. Not that many
politicians in any of those […]

“On
June 16, 2009, the defendant lied to a United States Grand Jury saying
that she did not participate in raising money for the individuals who
left Minnesota to fight against Ethiopian troops then present in Somalia
assisting with the internationally-recognized Transitional Federal
Government of Somalia.” Participate with whom? Where are her partners in
this […]

All
too often in Pakistan, those who are accused of blasphemy are murdered
by vigilantes or lynched by rabid mobs before they can even be tried, or
after they’re acquitted. Pakistan’s blasphemy laws are a human rights
abuse of monstrous proportions, but to denounce them would be
“Islamophobic,” and so the international human rights community […]

The
Saudis are angry with Wilders because of the uncomfortable truths he
tells about Islam, and no longer will deal with Dutch companies. Very
well. It’s just a shame that Dutch companies, and others in the rapidly
diminishing free world, haven’t told the Saudis long ago that as long as
the Kingdom denies basic rights […]

The
Party of the People of the Sunnah for Dawah and Jihad, popularly known
as Boko Haram, appears to be unfazed by becoming the focus of
international hashtag indignation. Time for a Facebook page, Mrs. Obama?
“Boko Haram kill one Chinese, 10 missing in Cameroon: Police,” Zee
News, May 17, 2014 (thanks to Lookmann): Beijing: […]

This
double standard is not surprising. After all, the Qur’an says:
“Muhammad is the apostle of Allah. Those who follow him are merciful to
one another and harsh to disbelievers” (48:29). Someone who believes
that to be holy writ may indeed be more inclined to pardon a Muslim
accused of blasphemy than a Christian accused […]

As
evidence of his “radicalization,” the clueless Telegraph offers him
quoting from the Qur’an, although the paper is evidently unaware that
the quote comes from the Qur’an. Even if the authors and editors of this
piece did know that, they likely wouldn’t mention it, as that would
harm “community cohesion.” “British-born Boko Haram ‘ringleader’ was […]

But
remember: to speak out and say that this kind of thing is monstrous,
and to call upon Muslims to reform and reinterpret the texts and
teachings that inspire and incite this violence, is “Islamophobia” and
“hatred.” Better to let it pass by silently rather than stand with the
“right-wingers” who oppose it. “Back-to-back blasts […]

Islamic
jihadists want to ruin the artifacts of non-Muslim civilizations,
because doing so testifies to the truth of Islam. The Qur’an suggests
that ruins are a sign of Allah’s punishment of those who rejected his
truth: Many were the Ways of Life that have passed away before you:
travel through the earth, and see what […]

This
and any number of incidents like it will do nothing to stop the
increasingly irrational, thuggish and authoritarian Left in the U.S.
from according the “Palestinians” the moral high ground and pressuring
Israel to make disastrous concessions to the jihadists. “Firebombs on
Bat Mitzva Girls’ Bus, Only Arutz Sheva Reports It,” by Gil Ronen, […]
