Oddly
enough, they didn’t torch any mosques, even though, as everyone knows,
they have nothing to do with Islam. “Nigeria: Boko Haram Torch 185
Churches in Captured Towns of Borno and Adamawa,” by Jack Moore,
International Business Times, October 6, 2014 (thanks to Pamela Geller):
A prominent Nigerian reverend has revealed Islamist terror group Boko

[Via
PJ Media] The value of actor Ben Affleck’s recent outbursts in defense
of Islam on HBO’s Real Time is that here, in one 10-minute segment, we
have all the leftist/liberal bromides used whenever Islam is criticized.
In what follows, Affleck’s main arguments are presented and then
discredited. Relativism and the Islamic Heterogeneity Myth At […]

But
Will McCants of the Qatar-funded Brookings Institution says this is
“just someone goofing off.” The evidence? “Why write Allah Akbar in
Arabic and then switch to the Latin alphabet for ISIS?” Ah, yes, this is
clearly a sign of a goof-off — after all, everyone knows that real
supporters of the Islamic State only […]

The
U.S. needs to reconfigure its alliances. The old Cold War arrangements
are simply not adequate to deal with the reality of the jihad threat.
But since U.S. officialdom is itself in denial about the jihad threat,
the needed change is not on the horizon. “As ISIS Take Kobane, NATO’s
Second Largest Army Sits on […]

If
these Islamic State jihadis had beheaded anyone in power in the modern
UK, the only salient question would have been “how could they tell?”
“NEW INFO: London Terror Arrests Disrupted Public Beheading Plot,” Fox
News, October 7, 2014 (thanks to Anne Crockett): London police arrested
four men Tuesday in an ongoing terror investigation. On […]

“The
state responds that inmate beards could pose a security risk to guards
and the public.” Safety? Pah! Islam must be accommodated! Wherever
Islamic law and American law conflict, American law must give way — and
the Obama Administration will fight for that. “Justices to debate
prisoner’s religious right to grow a beard,” by Bill […]

“Kill
the idol worshippers wherever you find them … shoot them if you can,
stab them, throw stones at their heads, poison them, run them over, burn
their fields – and if you are unable … spit in their faces.” “Kill the
idol worshippers wherever you find them” is essentially a quote from the
Qur’an: […]

“Police
were reported and the matter is still under investigation.” Good. I
hope they will soon find the Right-Wing Extremists who are no doubt
responsible for this case of workplace vlolence. “A bomb exploded next
to the Evangelical Church in Minya,” by Malak Fawzy, Copts United,
October 7, 2014 (thanks to Maged): A homemade bomb […]

This
exchange has already gone around the world and back while I’ve been too
busy to give it sufficient attention, but I thought it still worth
noting here because it may (may) represent more than just the awakening
of Bill Maher to reality. It may represent the beginning of the end of
the mainstream media […]

Remember:
Christians in the West are not to speak of such things. To do so would
harm the “dialogue”: “Talk about extreme, militant Islamists and the
atrocities that they have perpetrated globally might undercut the
positive achievements that we Catholics have attained in our
inter-religious dialogue with devout Muslims.” — Robert McManus, Roman
Catholic Bishop […]
