Kandahar: Taliban kill 18-year-old woman working at development company
The intrepid mujahedin, killing 18-year-olds on their way home from work. And still they seek to establish a pious earthly paradise through terror, and enforced ignorance and squalor.

Hamas-linked CAIR declares jihad against McDonald’s
Once again the thugs at CAIR demand that non-Muslims change their practices to conform to Islamic sensibilities, rather than calling upon Muslims in the United States to adapt to American culture.

Relax: Turkish PM says there’s no Islamic terrorism
Erdogan also famously said this about “moderate Islam”: “These descriptions are very ugly, it is offensive and an insult to our religion. There is no moderate or immoderate Islam. Islam is Islam and that’s it.” In this case, of course, he appears to be saying that the terrorists are twisting and hijacking Islam, but he […]
Quebec: Second Muslim woman expelled from French class over niqab
Aside from the problems posed by covering one’s face in an intensive language class, the very nature of the niqab rather defeats the purpose of the program offering the course: integration. An update on this story. “Niqab gets 2nd Quebec student expelled,” from CBC News, April 12 (thanks to Michael): For the second time in […]
