Uh, Ramadan ended September 9
This little exercise in moral equivalence, multiculturalism and celebration of the World’s Three Great Abrahamic Religions manifests a certain ignorance about one of the three — a genuine ignorance, not the kind that Islamic apologists routinely charge of those who speak too honestly about the jihad and Islamic supremacism — on the part of the […]

Spain: Muslim family denounces teacher for talking about ham in class
Here is my rough translation of a Spanish-language article about a manifestation of Islamic supremacism so outrageous that it is hard not to wonder whether or not it is a parody.

Why is this deemed worthy of a news story? Does The Oregonian think that the general public is anxiously looking for reassurance about the safety of this would-be jihadist mass murderer? Is it trying to head off claims of mistreatment from the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR)? And it sure is a good thing […]
Iran’s Supremo blames U.S. for Sunni-Shi’ite jihad attack
The Speaker of Iran’s Parliament blamed the Zionists and the Americans.

TSA under fire after Iranian-American businessman boards flight with loaded handgun
Accidentally, of course. You know, I forget where I put my loaded handgun all the time. And it’s just a coincidence that Farid Seif is Iranian, and that there are numerous reports of dry run-type activity in airports and on airplanes. This could just as well have happened to Mr. Smith. “TSA under fire after […]
