And the police did essentially nothing, confining the Hindus to their homes while the Muslim mobs continued to roam free. “Debanga [sic] Burns – Hindu Temples Descecrated [sic]; Hindu Markets Looted,” from Hindu Samhati, September 6 (thanks to Satya): September 6, 2010 : Today evening after Iftar, Muslims assembled in the Deganga Mosque (Basirhat SD, […]

Abbas: We will not recognize Israel as a Jewish state
Once again, one side is always eager to accommodate, conciliate, and compromise, and the other side is unilateral and immovable. In any case, the jihad imperative makes any negotiated peace with Israel only a stepping-stone to the goal, which remains the destruction of the Jewish State. “Abbas: We will not recognize Israel as a Jewish […]
Indonesia: Muslim mobs wreck villa of non-Muslim falsely accused of blasphemy
He tried to find out who had decapitated one of his statues, and in the course of doing so asked the locals what kind of Muslims they were — and was thus accused of blaspheming Islam. This resulted in the wrecking of his home and the torching of his motorcycle. “A Second Villa Trashed in […]
Spencer: Pakistani Government Minister: Obama For Caliph!
In Human Events this morning I discuss Ayatullah Durrani’s novel choice for caliph: The caliph in Sunni Islam is the symbol of the supranational unity of the Muslims, and is the successor of Muhammad as the military, political, and spiritual leader of the Islamic community. There hasn’t been a caliph for nearly 90 years, but […]
Iranian woman facing death by stoning has already been flogged over a photo of a different woman, could face execution any time after Ramadan
An update on this story. Just yesterday, reports said the sentence was pending, but authorities acted much more quickly — more eagerly — than that. The swiftness with which this ridiculous sentence was carried out suggests authorities are in a hurry: either they wanted to carry out the penalty before questions about the picture gained […]
Iranian Misunderstanders of Islam put human rights activist on trial for “warring against Allah”
Clearly the Iranian mullahs conflate their regime with the direct rule of the deity. This presents our favorite stomach-stapled beekeeper, Honest Ibe Hooper, and his henchmen at Hamas-linked CAIR with a golden opportunity: they can demonstrate their firm commitment to Western non-religious government, and the non-establishment of religion (which commitment we all must take at […]
Hitchens on Islam: “What is needed from the supporters of this very confident faith is more self-criticism and less self-pity and self-righteousness”
In complaining that Muslims in the U.S. are simply facing a new outcropping of the xenophobic prejudice of the nineteenth century, Abdullah Antepli makes a point that Nicholas Kristof and others have recently made. It must have come from some CAIR talking points or some similarly limpid source. “Free Exercise of Religion? No, Thanks.The taming […]
Iranian Supremo: Iran should engage in intellectual jihad with West
The problem would be finding proponents of Western liberal democracy who have the requisite audacity to defend their own culture and civilization. Most are cringing dhimmis. I’ll be glad to do it, however. Call me, Khamenei. “Iran should engage in intellectual jihad with the West: Supreme Leader,” from the Mehr News Agency, September 6: Supreme […]
Iranian cleric says Holocaust “superstition”
Since they ascribe Israel’s existence to the Holocaust, they believe this denial strips the Jewish State of all legitimacy. “Senior Iranian cleric dismisses Nazi Holocaust as ‘superstition,’” from the Daily Mail, September 5 (thanks to all who sent this in): A senior Iranian cleric has dismissed the Nazi Holocaust during World War II as a […]
ABC News, Hamas-linked CAIR whipping up hysteria over “Islamophobia”
Here is just one of a cascade of mainstream media articles this week that paint Muslims as victims, using the same examples over and over: the Florida church Qur’an burning, the cabbie attack in New York, and the Tennessee church burning. In other words, they’re using one incident in which no Muslims will be harmed; […]
