Was the Flying Imam incident staged in order to get anti-profiling legislation passed?
I have been saying for some time now that the Flying Imam rage incident was staged to help garner support for anti-profiling legislation. Just before the Flying Imams incident happened I noted that Nancy Pelosi had come out in favor of such legislation, and suggested here and here in late November that a push for […]
Advisor to Ahmadinejad: “The Resolution of the Holocaust Issue Will End in the Destruction of Israel”
Hitler had big plans for Berlin too. “Iran Holocaust Denial Conference Announces Plan to Establish World Foundation for Holocaust Studies — To Be Eventually Based in Berlin and Headed by Iranian Presidential Advisor Mohammad-Ali Ramin Who Has Said: ‘The Resolution of the Holocaust Issue Will End in the Destruction of Israel,’” from MEMRI, with thanks […]
Dhimmitude at the Times of London: Sharia is helping Somalia “stage a surprising recovery”
Hitler helped Germany stage a surprising recovery, too. Search for “Somalia” at Jihad Watch and Dhimmi Watch to see how “moderate” the new Somali rulers really are. “Battle-scarred nation is at peace with itself . . . but still facing war,” by Martin Fletcher in the TimesOnline, with thanks to Morgaan Sinclair: The first surprise […]
Carter ducks Dershowitz: “There is no need to for me to debate somebody who, in my opinion, knows nothing about the situation in Palestine”
Dhimmi Carter won’t debate Alan Dershowitz about Israel and the Palestinians. Why not? Because Dershowitz, says Carter, “knows nothing about the situation in Palestine.” Dershowitz, of course, is author of The Case for Israel, and author of a respectful and devastating review of Carter’s new book here. I doubt Carter has any reasonable response to […]

The red carpet is out, the flashbulbs are popping (“Over here, please, Paris. Just one more, please“). The glamorous guests are arriving now in their limousines: Hal Smith! Daniel Gélin! Kaaren Verne! This […]
“It is most disturbing to see how writers who try to warn about the totalitarian character of Islamism are defamed as racists. This wrong-headed political correctness prevents any honest discussion about the subject”
Tibi says “When you study religion, you do not study texts, you study social facts. A Muslim boy is torching cars and he is thinking he is waging jihad.” That is true. But the texts also support the permissibility, and indeed the active good, of waging war against unbelievers. “Germans may regret ignoring ‘prophet’ in […]
Ralph Peters makes chopped liver of world history
Nidra Poller had a bit of technical difficulty getting this one to us, so it is a bit delayed, but I believe it is still a timely riposte to yet another display of courage against the errors of nobody in particular by the intrepid Ralph Peters: Ralph Peters stepped down from his pedestal the other […]
Europe worries about holiday attacks
He knows when you’ve been bad or good, so be good, for goodness’ sake Jihadists are getting into the spirit of the season. And according to AP, they’re still upset over the Danish cartoons and the Pope’s remarks. You see, for Santa Omar Adel Rahman, we in the West have been very, very bad. By […]
Somali president: Peace talks no longer an option
A wider war on the Horn of Africa appears to be imminent. It seems apparent to Somali President Abdullahi Yusuf that “peace talks” would, at this point, amount to negotiations with al Qaeda and its foreign fighters rather than fellow Somalis. Also, while those talks would provide a public-relations outlet for the jihadists to feign […]
