First the ADL, and now this: a prominent liberal commentator comes out against the Islamic supremacist mega-mosque at Ground Zero. For years I insisted that the struggle against the global jihad was not a liberal/conservative issue, but a civilizational one on which the Left and the Right should fight together.

Jihadists fire rockets at Israeli resort city, wound four people in Jordan
The rockets seem to have been fired from the Sinai Peninsula, showing again the effectiveness of the Camp David accords: if there are jihad groups operating in the Sinai, the Egyptian government should move against them. “Four injured in Jordan as 5 rockets land in Eilat area,” from the Jerusalem Post, August 2: Five rockets […]
Modern, moderate UAE to block Blackberry service as threat to national security and “social values”
One wonders if the UAE and other Muslim countries that may follow the UAE’s lead in this will really be able to keep non-Sharia influences from creeping in. Of course, with the West so supine in the face of Sharia’s advance, that question may be moot within a few decades anyway. Sharia Alert from the […]
Thanks for nothing: British PM Cameron burned in effigy in Karachi
Cameron’s recent foray into dhimmitude — from extolling the nebulous, politically correct construct known as “real Islam,” to calling Gaza a “prison camp,” to his understated comments on Pakistan as an exporter of jihadist terrorism — has failed to win hearts and minds here.

ISNA has admitted ties to the Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas. The Muslim Brotherhood is waging, in its own words, “a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and ‘sabotaging’ its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and Allah’s religion […]
Friday Sermon in Gaza: Muslims Should Wage Jihad to Liberate the Al-Aqsa Mosque from the Filth of the Jews, the Brothers of Apes and Pigs
A Misunderstander of Islam, eh? No. Everything this Muslim cleric says is based on the Qur’an and Islamic law. “Friday Sermon in Gaza: Muslims Should Wage Jihad to Liberate the Al-Aqsa Mosque from the Filth of the Jews, the Brothers of Apes and Pigs,” from MEMRITV, July 16 (thanks to all who sent this in): […]
Obama administration “notably silent” on Morocco’s treatment of Christians
Surprising? Not at all, but newsworthy nonetheless. It is but one more example in the broader pattern of disturbing conduct by the Obama administration in its drive to gain the approval of the Muslim world at seemingly any cost. It will not make us safer. It will not make us, or anyone else, freer. An […]
