Canadian town embarrassed that it sort of stood up against honor killing
From our No-Good-Deed-Goes-Unpunished comes this Toronto Star article, “Town puzzled by memorial to slain teen,” about the memorial for honor killing victim Aqsa Parvez in Pelham, Ontario. The memorial to Aqsa in Pelham is a textbook case of how political correctness and self-aggrandizement can ruin a good initiative. In the Toronto Star piece, Scott McLeod […]
Washington, DC imam: US Govt, Mossad staged Flight 253 Christmas Day bombing
Here is yet another manifestation of the evasion of responsibility that we have seen here so many times over the years — indeed, it is typical of the Islamic supremacist response to any jihad crime Muslims commit: it is always the Infidel’s fault. We have seen Imam Musa before also. He is the character who […]
O’Reilly spars with Honest Ibe Hooper on profiling
It’s largely a dialogue of the deaf, but O’Reilly makes some commonsensical points. Honest Ibe Hooper obliquely admits that Islam is not a race (contrary to his own thuggish organization’s relentless race-victim posturing) by noting the white American jihadists John Walker Lindh and Adam Gadahn, although he weakens his point with some fatuous moral equivalence […]
14 jihadists kill themselves when their explosives-laden bus blows up prematurely

Not just “be killed.” Premature Detonation Alert: “14 terror suspects mistakenly kill themselves,” from CNN, January 6 (thanks to Davida): Kabul, Afghanistan (CNN) — Fourteen suspected terrorists died Tuesday night when the bus they rigged […]
“Minor” Sunni/Shi’ite jihad incidents in Kashmir lead to curfews and other strict security restrictions
But no worries, the clashes were “minor.” Just stay in your house and don’t ask questions. It sometimes seems as if the whole world is in denial and trying to downplay the magnitude of the jihad. “Shia-Sunni clashes erupt in J&K,” from The Asian Age, January 5 (thanks to Twostellas): Jan. 5: The Jammu and […]
Misunderstander of Islam murders six in suicide attack in South Russia
As could have been foreseen by anyone who understood the jihad doctrine, Russia’s complicity with jihad activity elsewhere has not won hearts and minds among the Muslims in the North Caucasus. “6 police killed in S Russia suicide attack,” for Xinhua, January 6 (thanks to Twostellas): MOSCOW, Jan. 6 (Xinhua) — Six police were killed […]

D.C. Watson: Islam’s Internet Tough Guys
Islam’s Internet Tough Guys by D.C. Watson We’ve listened to and read the words of CAIR officials, and heard the statements made by some of the “religion of peace’s” so-called “holy men”, the Imams. http://www.anti-cair-net.org/ http://watson37.com/ We’ve witnessed the sheer stupidity of other Muslim groups like the Islamic Thinkers Society. And recently, an article showed […]
Shocker: Malaysian court suspends ruling allowing Catholic publication to use “Allah” pending appeal
Stop the presses — quite literally, at the Herald, unfortunately. An update on this story. “‘Allah’ decision suspended,” from the Associated Press, January 6 (thanks to Twostellas): A Malaysian court Wednesday temporarily suspended its decision to let non-Muslims use the word “Allah,” pending an appeal by the government in a case that raised religious tensions […]
