Jakarta Post’s editor faces blasphemy charge for cartoon mocking Islamic State
Meidyatama Suryodiningrat said: “What we produced was a journalistic piece that criticised the ISIS movement, which has carried out violence in the name of religion.” It is a dogma in the West, not to be questioned on pain of charges of “Islamophobia” and “bigotry,” that the Islamic State’s violent acts are making a “mockery” of […]

Afghanistan: Jihad suicide bomber attacks play condemning suicide bombings
Because it “insulted Islamic values.” As in the values enunciated here: “Indeed, Allah has purchased from the believers their lives and their properties for that they will have Paradise. They fight in the cause of Allah, so they kill and are killed.” (Qur’an 9:111) Anyway, clearly the Taliban can operate with impunity, and a well-developed […]

Islamic Republic of Iran: Muslim cleric says “unclean” Baha’is must be banished from city
This comes straight from the Qur’an: “O you who have believed, indeed the polytheists are unclean…” (Qur’an 9:28) Will John Kerry or Joe Biden, or David Cameron or Theresa May, or Ben Affleck or Mehdi Hasan or Qasim Rashid or Reza Aslan kindly explain how Abbas Ramazanipour is misunderstanding Islam? “Iranian cleric says ‘unclean’ Baha’is […]

Philippines: Muslims pledged to Islamic State blamed for bus bombing that murdered 10
When is Joe Biden or John Kerry going to explain to us why this pseudo-Islamic group that has nothing to do with Islam has inspired loyalty from Muslims as far away as the Philippines? Why is this misunderstanding of Islam global in its extent? “Militants Pledged to Islamic State Blamed for Killing 10 in Philippines […]

UK Muslima gets prison for promoting jihad terrorism on Facebook
Runa Khan’s own barrister reflects mainstream belief in the UK when he dismisses her as a misunderstander of Islam, “devoid of any proper… reasonable Islamic teaching.” He does not explain how she came to misunderstand the religion that everyone in the UK is sure is peaceful. Nor does he explain why this misunderstanding is so […]

Jihadi from Scotland: “Read the Koran…Find out what is jihad”
John Kerry and the rest would have us believe that Abdul Raqib Amin read the Qur’an and thoroughly misunderstood it — and in exactly the same way as thousands of other Muslims who have, like him, gone to fight for the Islamic State. It strains credulity well beyond the breaking point. But it is official […]

Ahmadi Muslim leader Qasim Rashid whitewashes Muhammad’s support for torture
Qasim Rashid is a relentlessly disingenuous writer. Previously he has whitewashed the reality of jihad violence and Sharia oppression; dissembled about the Qur’an’s sanction of deception of unbelievers; lied about the presence of violent passages in the Qur’an; lied about the Qur’an’s sanction of beating disobedient women; lied about the nature of Sharia; and called […]

Biden tried to lecture Hirsi Ali about Islam
Even though Ayaan Hirsi Ali was raised a Muslim in a Muslim country, and Joe Biden has almost certainly never opened a Qur’an, Biden believed he knew more about Islam than she did. Why? Because her opinion of the religion was negative, and the possibility that such a view could have any merit whatsoever is […]

Qatar allows money to flow to Islamic State, other jihad terrorists
Qatar also funds the Brookings Institution, which wields enormous influence in Washington foreign policy circles — and in part explains why the foreign policy establishment is so willfully ignorant and unwilling to deal realistically or honestly with the jihad threat. “Qatar allows money to flow to ISIS, other terrorists: report,” by Guy Taylor, The Washington […]

Malaysia: Islamic scholars say playing guitar and piano against Islamic law
This is why Cat Stevens gave up music when he became Yusuf Islam, although his return to music suggests that these prohibitions can be set aside for purposes of dawah. In any case, this prohibition is not limited to Malaysian Islamic scholars, as it is founded on the hadiths below. It is consistent with the […]
