UK government rushes to prevent release of Muslim who wrote “Mr Kuffar [infidel] prepare for REAL WAR” Whose bright idea was this early release program, anyway?

Just last week it was reported that Police Scotland took down a child grooming gang that consisted of 55 Muslim men.

As this occasional series has previously explored, such national historical memories underline Iran’s conflicted relationship with Arabs and the Islamic faith that their past imperialism imposed […] Read more 2020-02-07  •  Andrew Harrod How Joe Biden Rejected Trump’s Peace Plan (Part 1) The Trump Administration’s remarkably detailed peace plan, set out in 179 pages of text and two pages of maps, is the fruit of 2½ years of intensive labor by Jared Kushner and a half-dozen others. For the first time, according to this plan, Israel would recognize a State of Palestine, with its capital in what, […] Read more 2020-02-07  •  Hugh Fitzgerald France: Hate crime case dropped against teen who received death threats for criticizing Islam “French prosecutors have dropped a potential hate crime case against a French teen named Mila who received death threats after she criticised Islam online.” Mila said nothing that targeted Muslims as a whole.
