Obama is in effect saying that you can build a triumphal mosque marking Islam’s superiority and victory — which is how the Ground Zero mosque will be viewed in the Islamic world — and you can lie about your funding, and lie about your commitment to interreligious dialogue and harmony, and refuse to denounce jihad […]

Our June 6 protest Stand up and join us at our FDI/SIOA 9/11 rally against the Ground Zero mega-mosque on September 11 at 2pm at Park Place, between Church Street and West Broadway. Confirmed list of speakers joining Pamela Geller and me at the FDI/SIOA demonstration: 911 WTC families Ambassador John Bolton Newt Gingrich Geert […]
Obama backs Islamic supremacist mega-mosque at Ground Zero
As expected. He says it is all about religious freedom. Actually, it isn’t about religious freedom at all. It’s about whether a triumphal mosque should be built at Ground Zero. Obama, like Bloomberg, is acting as if the Ground Zero mega-mosque is the only mosque in the U.S. “Obama throws support behind controversial Islamic center,” […]
Tonight at White House Ramadan dinner, Obama set to betray Americans who are standing against the Islamic supremacist mega-mosque at Ground Zero
This is not a religious freedom issue. No one has ever understood the freedom of religion as granting an untrammeled license to build any structure anywhere, as long as it’s religious. If the KKK announced plans to build a shrine at the site of the 16th Street Baptist Church, would Obama be talking about religious […]
France: Priests and bishops refuse to baptize Muslim converts to Christianity, for fear of the consequences
Why do Muslims engage in violent intimidation? Because it works. Until people are willing to stand up and defy it, it will continue to work. “Christians and Muslims from Algeria to Italy in the footsteps of Saint Augustine,” from Asia News, August 13 (thanks to Twostellas): Rome (AsiaNews) – A group of Christians and Muslims […]
Trying to get the Ground Zero mega-mosque moved, Governor Paterson offers to make Islam New York’s state-sponsored religion
I was so pleased that a sitting politician actually came out against the Islamic supremacist mega-mosque at Ground Zero that I completely overlooked this crucial aspect of Governor Paterson’s offer of state land for mosque. His heart is in the right place in trying to get the triumphal mosque away from Ground Zero, but giving […]
Taliban: Pakistani flood victims must refuse aid from “foreign infidels”
Heading off a corrupting influence. “Taliban calls for boycott of Western aid as Swat Valley ravaged by floods,” by Neil Tweedie in the Telegraph, August 11 (thanks to Mackie): The Taliban has told victims of Pakistan’s floods to boycott aid from “foreign infidels” as the UN called for $460 million in emergency aid to prevent […]
Geller: Obama Ramadanadingdong
More reflections on Obama’s ridiculous Ramadan ruminations. “Obama Ramadanadingdong,” by Pamela Geller at Big Peace, August 13: Barack Obama this week extended his “best wishes to Muslims in America and around the world” and wished them a “Ramadan Kareem.” And he wrote, as he did in last year’s Ramadan message also, about “the principles that […]
Indonesian churches donate Qur’ans to Muslim prisoners in Australia
Qur’an 5:14: “From those, too, who call themselves Christians, We did take a covenant, but they forgot a good part of the message that was sent them: so we estranged them, with enmity and hatred between the one and the other, to the day of judgment. And soon will Allah show them what it is […]
Fitzgerald: A Little More On Obama, Islam, History, and “Getting On The Right Side Of History”
Robert Spencer’s dissection of the Obama Ramadan greetings here was lucid and unrelenting, but I’d like to add some observations, stopping first to note the funniest phrase in what was, otherwise, necessarily – given the nature of the material to work with – unrelievedly bleak: “Obama then retails a few platitudes lifted straight out of […]
