Has
the Maliki regime noticed yet that Obama is arming the Sunni jihadists
in Syria and arming their foes in Iraq? This incoherence should be the
lead story on every nightly news program and the lead story in every
major news outlet. Instead, of course, they continue to cover for this
disastrous Administration. “US Rushes […]

Would
the Daily Caller publish an article entitled “Jesus Is The Cure For The
ISIS Crisis,” and calling upon Iraqis and Syrians to convert to
Christianity? Of course it wouldn’t. Not only would its multicultural
sensitivities forbid it, but the very idea would be absurd. The problem
is that this is just as absurd. There […]

When
he says, “They do not realise that these calls aim to destabilise
societies through movements and parties that aim to create schism to
divide Muslims,” King Abdullah is clearly referring to the Islamic
State. And he claims that it “does not relate to Islam by any means” —
while the Islamic State has just […]

Will
Muslim spokesmen in the West who have derided warnings about the
Islamic supremacist aspiration to reestablish the caliphate now explain
on Islamic grounds why Muslims worldwide do not need to pledge
allegiance to the new caliph? Will they explain why this declaration,
which is full of Qur’an citations, is a misunderstanding of Islam? Or
[…]

The
ever-clueless Daily Mail calls this a “Nazi-style” vision, when it is
all based on tenets of Islamic law. The prohibition on church
bells: “Such non-Muslim subjects [of the Islamic state] are obliged to
comply with Islamic rules that pertain to the safety and indemnity of
life, reputation, and property. In addition, they…are forbidden to
openly […]

“They
killed and burnt houses after attacking worshipers in five churches in
Kwada; after that, they advanced to Kautikari, less than 8 kilometres to
Chibok town, whey they equally killed people and destroyed properties.
I’m not sure security agencies have gone to rescue the villagers, but I
learnt that the insurgents are still in pursuit […]

If
they had desecrated a church, would they be serving a year in jail? Not
in Sharia Britannia. As Pamela Geller says, “while what these kids did
was silly, jail time? For a bad joke?” Yes. British officials vie to
outdo each other in bowing down to their new overlords. And while what
these kids […]

“Iraqi
officials had claimed that troops had pushed into the heart of the city
in what was the biggest attempt yet by the Baghdad government to
reverse a series of defeats suffered earlier this month at the hands of
the Al Qaeda-inspired Islamic State in Iraq and The Levant (ISIS).” But
now they have drawn […]

They
clearly intend to hold the territory they have captured. They’ve also
declared Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi the new caliph; he claims to be a
descendant of Muhammad, so it is possible that if they can make their
state viable, this claim will gain currency. If that happens, it will be
interesting to see how Muslims […]

“Indeed,
the penalty for those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and
strive upon earth corruption is none but that they be killed or
crucified or that their hands and feet be cut off from opposite sides or
that they be exiled from the land. That is for them a disgrace in this
