This is straight out of the Qur’an, which says that Abraham gives an
“excellent example” to Muslims when he tells his pagan family that there
is now “enmity and hatred” between them and him until they worship
Allah alone (60:4). And: “O you who have believed, do not take your
fathers or your brothers as […]

Why hasn’t the United States initiated such action? “Russia Looking
Into Initiating UN Action on Protecting Christians in the Middle East,”
by Dr Alexander Yakovenko, AINA, November 26, 2014 (thanks to AINA):
Russia is currently considering the possibility of initiating a draft
decision of the UN Human Rights Council on the protection of Christians

The Hamas-linked terror organization the Council on American-Islamic
Relations (CAIR) launched a new website last month, boasting in its
daily mailing that the site was meant to marginalize foes of jihad
terror: “This means that when someone who may think an Islamophobe is a
legitimate speaker and searches for the person on the Internet, they […]

Mohammed Tawfiq, a former leader of the Construction and Development
party, recently asserted that the Muslim Brotherhood—which is banned as a
terrorist organization in Egypt, Russia, Syria, and Saudi Arabia—has
been using “porn actresses to stir up discord between Muslims and
Christians ahead of November 28.” This is the date that Egypt’s Salafis
have designated as […]

[via Frontpage Mag] Russia appears to be taking serious moves to combat
the “radicalization” of Muslims within its border. Recent pro-Islamic
reports are complaining that Russia is banning the Islamic hijab—the
headdress Islamic law requires Muslim women to wear—and, perhaps even
more decisively, key Islamic scriptures, on the charge that they incite
terrorism. In the words […]

Democracy’s Slow Extinction by Michael Devolin “The death of democracy
is not likely to be an assassination from ambush. It will be a slow
extinction from apathy, indifference, and undernourishment.” — Robert
Maynard Hutchins, 1954 It would be no small feat to pinpoint when,
exactly, Western journalists and politicians began losing their grip on
reality. […]

We see Muslims from the U.S. and all over the West joining the Islamic
State. This is because of the appeal of the idea of the caliphate — but
Washington analysts are not allowed, as a matter of Obama Administration
policy, to examine such matters too closely, for that could lead to
“Islamophobia.” “Two Americans […]

This would not have been the first time that the U.S. government
accepted comforting falsehoods over the truth, but in this case the
truth prevailed, thanks to the ace AFLC lawyers David Yerushalmi and
Robert Muise. HELP US KEEP SPREADING THE TRUTH WITH THESE ADS:

This kind of assault on the freedom of speech would never happen in the
free West. If Soheil Arabi insulted Muhammad in the United States, he
would just be rebuked for his “bigotry” and “intolerance,” and held up
as an example of how racism is still pandemic in American society. There
would be head-shaking articles […]

He will, of course, be killed as soon as he arrives in a Muslim
country. But Spanish officials seem so desperate to appease their
increasingly aggressive Muslim population by enforcing Sharia blasphemy
restrictions upon the freedom of speech that they are willing to
sacrifice Imran Firasat’s life. “Firasat also pointed to the irony of
his […]

But…but…surely the peaceful, tolerant moderates — vetted or no —
remonstrated with those who were screaming “Allahu akbar” and reminded
them that the Qur’an teaches peace and respect for the People of the
Book, didn’t they? Didn’t they? Anyway, Bishop Kevin would say something
about this, but the “Muslim-Christian dialogue” meeting is tonight, and
Imam […]

If he lived in the West, Abdul Latif Siddique wouldn’t have been
arrested. He would just have been excoriated as a racist, bigoted
Islamophobe, and shunned by the political and media elites. We are, in
other words, significantly more open to the freedom of speech and
freedom of inquiry than is Bangladesh. “Bangladesh Politician Detained

“There is a war taking place around the world, there is a conflict
between those who believe sovereignty belongs to God and those who
believe sovereignty belongs to man.” No. There is a war taking place
around the world, but it is actually a conflict between those who
believe sovereignty belongs to men who claim […]

For the caliphate, now as throughout history, might makes right. The
longer the Islamic State lasts, the more loyalty it will win among
Muslims. We have already seen Muslims from the West traveling in record
numbers to join it in Iraq and Syria. That will continue and increase,
as long as the Islamic State continues […]

“In the episode, Veena was seen dancing with her husband while a group
of Sufi musicians sang a devotional song about the wedding of the
Prophet’s daughter.” That was it. Twenty-six years in prison for that,
apparently because she was dancing while a devotional song was being
sung. Nonetheless, “she says her faith in the […]

On this week’s Glazov Gang, Our Hero was joined by Daniel Greenfield, a
Shillman Journalism Fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom Center, who
writes the indispensable blog, “The Point,” on Frontpagemag.com. Daniel
came on the show to discuss Obama’s sympathy for “Abdul-Rahman Kassig,”
analyzing how the president exploited the murder of an American in order
