Italy’s Salvini: Macron “drinks too much champagne…next 10 migrant boats can go to Marseilles”
By Robert Spencer on Jun 25, 2018 04:00 pm

Salvini is responding to Macron’s recent attack on Italy’s new anti-hijrah government. If free societies survive in Europe, Salvini will be celebrated as a hero, while Macron will be remembered with contempt. “Macron drinks too much champagne – Salvini (2),” ANSA, June 22, 2018: (ANSA) – Massa Carrara, June 22 – Interior Minister Matteo Salvini […]

UK: Five Muslim leaders linked to London Bridge jihad attack to be released from prison by the end of this year
By Robert Spencer on Jun 25, 2018 02:00 pm

What could possibly go wrong? The British government has made it abundantly clear: the “Islamophobes” are the problem, and Muslims are victims. No doubt Theresa May expects Anjem Choudary and these other men to become loyal, productive members of British society. And they will, won’t they? After all, haven’t they been disabused of their jihad […]

Norway: Muslim rapper curses “the f***ing Jews” at a “diversity concert”
By Robert Spencer on Jun 25, 2018 12:30 pm

What did the City of Oslo expect Kaveh Khalardi would say? “On June 10, five days before the concert, Kholardi wrote on Twitter: ‘f***ing Jews are so corrupt.'” But the City of Oslo authorities had him perform anyway. Either they didn’t know he hated Jews, which would have been a failure to vet him adequately, […]

Hugh Fitzgerald: Offer and Acceptance
By Hugh Fitzgerald on Jun 25, 2018 11:00 am

I recently attended a Rally for Palestine in the main square of a medium-sized French city close to Marseille. There were flags aflutter of the State of Palestine, two booths full of anti-Zionist propaganda, French middle-aged leftists, committed to the cause, concolorous in their political views with their American cousins of circa 1970, all granola […]

UK: Muslim spews anti-Semitic insults on airplane, walks free from court
By Robert Spencer on Jun 25, 2018 09:00 am

Shamraize Bashir doesn’t seem to have done anything besides spew insults, but apparently he ran afoul of the UK’s laws against “racism.” Nonetheless, he walked free. If the roles had been reversed and he had been a non-Muslim insulting Muslims on an airplane, would he have walked free in today’s shattered, staggering, dhimmi Britain? What […]

Malawi: Governor says Islam is religion of violence, then apologizes for “anti-Muslim remarks”
By Robert Spencer on Jun 25, 2018 07:00 am

Here we go again. This conflation is near-universal, but that doesn’t make it any more legitimate. The teachings of Islam are one thing and Muslims are another, just as the teachings of Christianity are one thing and Christians are another. Jesus said to love one’s enemies and turn the other cheek, but few Christians manage […]

Nigeria: Muslims murder 86 Christians, burn 50 houses
By Robert Spencer on Jun 25, 2018 05:18 am

In the first paragraph, we learn that there were “attacks.” In the second paragraph, we learn that the attacks were carried out by “armed herdsmen.” In the fourth paragraph, we find that the herdsmen are “mostly Muslims,” while the victims are “predominantly Christians.” Never in this story do we learn that Nigerian Church leaders have […]
