Remember those “civil riots” in France? The ones that Prince Al-Walid of Saudi Arabia compelled Rupert Murdoch to have Fox stop calling “Muslim riots”? The ones that the learned talking heads assured us had nothing to do with Islam? While they were receiving the most press attention they ever got, in November 2005, you could […]

Fitzgerald: A judgment rooted in ignorance
The teacher, using an instructional guide, told students they would adopt roles as Muslims for three weeks to help them learn what Muslims believe. She encouraged them to use Muslim names, recited prayers in class, had them memorize and recite a passage from the Quran and made them give up something for a day, such […]
Morocco: Government omits Qur’anic verse from textbooks
This approach may yield some positive results, but ultimately it suffers from one huge handicap: people can read the Qur’an outside school. What’s more, the absence of this material from government textbooks can be used by Islamic hardliners as evidence that the government has apostatized, and must be replaced by one that is more loyal […]

Supreme Court: Islamic indoctrination in public schools is A-OK

Some religions are more equal than others, evidently. “Appeal on school’s lesson in Muslim culture is rejected,” from the San Francisco […]
Man who wants to kill me says Islam is a religion of peace
The world saw the irony with Pope Rage: Muslims committing violent acts in response to a call to forsake religious violence. Now the man who has vowed to kill me (see here and here, as well as below) affirms, without showing any sign of being aware of his self-contradiction, that Islam is a religion of […]
Hilaly wants Islamic leader ostracised for comments
Just as I predicted. From Richard Kerbaj in The Australian (thanks to Rosie): AUSTRALIA’S most senior Islamic cleric has called for a Muslim leader to be ostracised over comments about the prophet Mohammed that he likened to Salman Rushdie’s Satanic Verses.

Publisher cancels book for fear of Muslim violence
A note to my publisher, Regnery Publishing: thanks for having some courage, in this time when it is so urgently needed. “Publisher Pulls Book On Muslim Violence,” by Shlomo Greenwald in the Jewish Press: The latest example of radical Muslim interference with free speech took place without even a hint of a fatwah. Last week […]
