(Left:
“Support our troops” bow, right: Benjamin O. Yeh) We all heard about
the warning against wearing military uniform in public in Denmark, but
when I went training as a volunteer in our National Guard this Sunday, I decided to keep my military uniform on and bicycled 15 km across Copenhagen just to show people on the street that […]

Good
thing jihad terror has nothing to do with Islam. Imagine what the
situation would be like if it did: British police would be making
counter-terrorists on a nearly daily basis. Oh, wait… “Six arrested by
counter-terror police,” by Danny Boyle, the Telegraph, October 14, 2014:
Six people have been arrested on terror charges after […]

The
caliphate is a might-makes-right proposition, and has been throughout
Islamic history. If the Islamic State can hold power for a sustained
period, more and more Muslims will pledge allegiance to it. “Six top TTP
commanders announce allegiance to Islamic State’s Baghdadi,” by Zahir
Shah Sherazi, Dawn, October 14, 2014: PESHAWAR: Six top commanders of
[…]

The
old Cold War web of alliances is badly outdated. Rapidly re-Islamizing
Turkey is no friend of the United States. But to admit the patently
obvious reality would be “Islamophobic.” Turkey wants to take advantage
of the chaos to reestablish its own caliphate, and for that goal the
Islamic State may be useful. “Mideast crisis […]

Your
tax dollars at work. The foolish and wrongheaded venture of arming
“vetted moderates” against the Islamic State is inevitably going to
result in this, either because of those “moderates”‘ ineptitude or their
complicity. “Islamic State terrorists using U.S. tents in jihad
training camp,” by Cheryl K. Chumley, The Washington Times, October 14,
2014: A […]

The
mainstream media, American academia and even much of the public
discourse are for the most part a one-party state. Dissenting ideas are
not allowed to be discussed. Instead, academics and media analysts only
consider a very small spectrum of opinion, and either ridicule and
disparage views that fall outside that spectrum without refuting them,
[…]

How
did the Selangor Fatwa Council get this idea in modern, moderate
Malaysia? How did Muslim clerics who have dedicated their lives to
studying Islam and understanding it properly, and who are now in a
position to issue religious rulings, get the crazy idea that “liberalism
and pluralism in religion is against the teachings of […]

Students
have to teach themselves about religions other than Islam. Boys and
girls are segregated. Students took a mysterious trip to Saudi Arabia.
The attempt to Islamize these state schools was revealed six months ago
when the damning “Trojan Horse” plot was released. Since then, nothing
has been done, as Absurd and Suicidal Britannia circles […]

Clearly
Erol Incedal has trouble distinguishing friends (or Useful Idiots) from
enemies. Ironically in light of Blair’s fulsome praise for the Qur’an,
Incedal’s note is an amalgamation of these Qur’an passages (not that
this has anything to do with Islam): “O ye who believe! Fight those of
the disbelievers who are near to you, and […]

The
Redoubtable Russian of Renown never disappoints, but this edition of
Glazov Gang is one for the ages, as the Glazovian One was joined by none
other than Dr. David Wood, host of the Trinity Channel’s live talk
show, “Jesus or Muhammad?” Dr. Wood has been in more than 40 public
debates with Muslims and […]

Last
Friday, on my regular spot on Michael Coren’s show The Arena, we
discussed: 1) Canadian security organizations are tracking up to 90
jihadis who have returned from abroad. 2) The U.S. State Department give
their seal of approval to a Muslim handbook first embraced then later
rejected by Canada’s RCMP. 3) Possible jihadi plans […]

Few
things are more abundantly attested in Islamic law than the
permissibility of child marriage. Islamic tradition records that
Muhammad’s favorite wife, Aisha, was six when Muhammad wedded her and
nine when he consummated the marriage: “The Prophet wrote the (marriage
contract) with Aisha while she was six years old and consummated his
marriage with […]

Is
a moderate spokesman going to step up and refute the Islamic State’s
case? Attempts to do so up to now have avoided addressing the salient
points, thus leaving the Islamic State’s case untouched. According to
Islamic law, Muslim men can take “captives of the right hand” (Qur’an
4:3, 4:24, 33:50). The Qur’an says: “O […]
