She asked for “almost three weeks of unpaid leave” so that she could go on the hajj. She wrote that “based on her religious beliefs, she could not justify delaying performing hajj,” although since a Muslim has his or her entire lifetime to perform the hajj, it’s unclear what would have made it impossible for […]

Spencer: Sweden: Suicide Bomb Against Free Speech
In Human Events this morning, I discuss one obvious lesson of the jihad bombs in Stockholm: […] And so we see yet again, with this new escalation in the jihad against the West, that the freedom of speech is one of the foremost battlegrounds of this war. Jihadists like Taimour Abdulwahab Al-Abdaly, the suicide bomber […]
Pakistan: Ismaili Muslim jailed under blasphemy law for throwing away the business card of a salesman named “Muhammad”
As far as phony charges go, it’s like they’re not even trying anymore. But this man still sits in jail. What can one expect of a law that is inherently abusive, except more abuse? The Islamic supremacist spirit underlying Pakistan’s blasphemy laws aims to establish Islam’s dominance and create a climate of fear to maintain […]
Stockholm jihad bomber’s family blames Britain for his “radicalization”
But they really should be blaming Islam, for in this fascinating piece from the Telegraph, it is taken for granted that someone who becomes more “religious,” i.e., more devout in his observance of Islam, will be liable to become fanatical and violent. Yet we are constantly told in the West that the truly devout Muslims […]
Sweden jihad bomber: “To all Muslims in Sweden I say: stop fawning and humiliating yourselves for a life of humiliation is far from Islam”

NYC Council caves, cancels hearing and “Hate Wal-Mart Day” — Ground Zero Mosque protest rescheduled
An announcement from Pamela Geller about our scheduled Ground Zero mosque protest tomorrow: The New York City Council has canceled the “ban Wal-Mart hearing” that had been scheduled for tomorrow at 1pm. They caved. The council canceled tomorrow’s hearing at the last minute, in the dark of night, and will reschedule it when no one […]
Sweden jihad bomber “friendly” immigrant “radicalized” in Britain
“He drank alcohol and had girlfriends.” But then in England he encountered Muslims who told him that the true and pure Islam was something different from what he had been living. Once again we see devoutness in Islam lead to jihad activity. But note also that, at least by the account of Qadeer Baksh of […]
Geller: The theft of Ground Zero
Pamela Geller makes an extraordinarily important point here: the Ground Zero mega-mosque controversy has already been a tremendous victory for the Islamic supremacists — they have changed what is associated with Ground Zero in the popular mind. “The Theft of Ground Zero,” by Pamela Geller in the American Thinker, December 13: The most egregious aspect […]
