The Chicago Tribune carries a huge story this morning headlined “Immigration crackdown shatters Muslims’ lives.” The story recounts the woes of several Muslims who were deported to Pakistan after being found in violation of immigration laws. ” All had been in the U.S. illegally,” says the article. “But the chief reason many were singled out […]

Islamic law forbids the killing of non-combatants “” women and children “” unless they are deemed to be aiding in the war effort. I provide abundant citations for this from Islamic legal sources in Onward Muslim Soldiers. Perhaps remembering the caveat that women and children are fair game if they are somehow aiding the warriors, […]

Zacharias Moussaoui isn’t the only mujahid trying to wage jihad from prison; it turns out that “Texas prison officials are monitoring inmates at the state’s 114 prisons for signs that outsiders are trying to recruit them into terrorism or that inmates are working contacts outside prison for illegal purposes, including terrorism.” What kind of terrorism? […]

The estimable Michael Coren hits another nail on the head in this article about jihad slavery in Sudan: “In fact, millions have been enslaved, murdered, mutilated and abused in this campaign, far more than have suffered in, for example, what are known as the Occupied Territories in Israel. Odd, then, that so much media time […]

Agence France Presse reports that “seven Iranian women in the southwestern city of Shiraz were sentenced to 50 lashes each for undermining strict Islamic codes during the holy month of Ramadan, a hardline paper reported.” What did they do to deserve 50 lashes? “The women, wearing heavy makeup, were dancing and listening to loud music […]

The dhimmis at Reuters have compiled a list of the “worst terror attacks since 9/11.” Charles at LGF points out one glaring problem with this list: “Not one attack by Palestinian Arab terrorists in Israel is listed.” Another example of PC dhimmitude is the fact that these attacks are identified as “some of the worst […]

“A pre-dawn fire Saturday that destroyed part of a suburban Jewish school was likely an anti-Semitic act, France’s interior minister said.” . . . “Jewish schools, temples and cemeteries have been hit in anti-Semitic attacks that peaked in 2002 when a Marseille synagogue was deliberately burned to the ground. “Rising tensions coincided in the past […]

A trenchant address by Serge Trifkovic skewers the tendency of dhimmi academics to “twist the Moslem past to serve their present-day intellectual agendas” “” a tendency I also explore in Onward Muslim Soldiers.

Dhimmitude seems to be alive and well in enlightened, secular Turkey, everyone’s favorite model of a thriving Islamic democracy. Compass Direct reports that when Deniz Kasan, a convert from Islam to Christianity, applied to change her religious identity (yes, this must be registered with the “secular” government), her application was denied. “But to Kasan’s shock, […]

While their comrades-in-arms carried out a successful jihad operation against a synagogue in Istanbul, members of the Kashmir radical Muslim group Hizbul Mujahedin (Party of Jihad warriors) scored big against two other key military targets: a three-wheeler taxi and a Christian school. To be sure, they did injure three Indian soldiers with the taxi bomb, […]
