The
West’s fantasy meets the far harsher reality. Now if only the Obama
Administration would discard fantasy for reality after the manner of
Adam Reed and Matt Thompson. But there is no hope of that. “‘Archer’
Drops ISIS: The FX Series Dumps the Spy Org’s Name in Light of Recent
Events,” by Marlow Stern, Daily […]

“It
is extremely difficult for the FBI to identify individuals in the U.S.
who have this kind of goal” — especially since they’re forbidden as a
matter of policy to study or understand the ideology to which these
people adhere. “American suicide bomber’s travels in U.S., Middle East
went unmonitored,” by Adam Goldman and Greg […]

Here
are more of those extraordinary contributions by Muslims to British
society that David Cameron is so enthused about. More of the endless
stream of bad news from the Subjugated Isle about its abject surrender
to Islamic supremacists: “School of Jihadis: Why have six former pupils
of the ‘Eton of comprehensives’ been linked to terror?,” […]

Why
would rapidly re-Islamizing Turkey want to keep in prison someone who
tried to assassinate a counter-jihad leader? It’s a wonder Erdogan
didn’t give the shooter a medal. “Lars Hedegaard’s Assassin Receiver
[sic] His Freedom From AKP!,” Turkey Islamic Justice and Development,
October 12, 2014 (thanks to Ingrid Carlqvist): Lars Hedegaard was

It’s
amazing that in Abject Britannia this story would even raise an
eyebrow. Why is anyone upset that Ibrahim Hewitt said that Sharia would
be considered in child abuse cases? British authorities have been
pandering to Islamic supremacists and kowtowing to Sharia for years.
This is only coming to light now because of the larger […]

Ed
and Paula Kassig’s grief and fear are understandable, and it is
likewise understandable that they would be driven to desperate measures.
And while the Muslims they stood with made statements deploring the
kidnapping and threatening of their son, who has converted to Islam in
captivity, nonetheless the captors of their son pray the same […]

Odd
thing, this: Malala says the Taliban don’t represent Islam. The Taliban
say that Malala doesn’t represent Islam. Who is right? Is there any way
to find out? And does it matter? Unfortunately, the salient point is
this: the Taliban and other Muslims who believe in the Taliban’s
understanding of Islam are waging violent jihad […]

“Indeed,
Allah has purchased from the believers their lives and their properties
[in exchange] for that they will have Paradise. They fight in the cause
of Allah, so they kill and are killed.” (Qur’an 9:111) “Islamic State
suicide bombers kill 28 Kurds; police chief assassinated,” by Saif
Sameer, Reuters, October 12, 2014 (thanks to Block […]

Gebran
Bassil is expressing a reflexive Arab nationalist antisemitism that has
been far outstripped by actual events — but apparently Bassil wasn’t
paying attention. In chapter nine of Bat Ye’or’s seminal Islam and
Dhimmitude, she discusses at length the ambiguities of Arab nationalism,
showing how as a movement it destroyed Middle Eastern Christian
communities, dividing […]

“What
I put in my report was the tip of the iceberg. There is a huge amount
of material which I didn’t put in. I deliberately focused on what
appeared to be the epicentre. There were problems elsewhere which I
couldn’t evidence sufficiently in the time available.” And given the
lack of an expiration date […]

“Qatar
is arguably the preeminent sponsor of terror in the world today. It is a
benefactor of the genocidal armies of ISIS, al Qaeda, and Boko Haram;
it is involved in Taliban narcotics trafficking through a relationship
with the Pakistani National Logistics Cell; and profits from operating a
virtual slave state. Qatar is involved in […]

But
where did they get this idea in the first place? Could it have been
from the Qur’an, which calls Muslims “the best of people” (3:110) and
unbelievers “the most vile of created beings” (98:6)? The sharp
dichotomy between believers and unbelievers runs through all of Islam,
and is epitomized by this verse: “Muhammad is […]

“I’m
not a scholar of any religion,” Cameron adds a moment later. You can
say that again. He also several times praises, in this brief address,
the “enormous contributions” that British Muslims make to Britain, but
the only example he adduces is the marvelous “fire-starter” bowl of
curry he recently enjoyed. He praises British Muslims […]
