On one hand, there are people who fought for actual human dignity, equal representation and democracy. On the other, there are jihadists fighting to impose Sharia and rid the world of imaginary Zionist-Crusader conspiracies, like David Hicks. One of these groups is not like the other.

Petition to save Asia Bibi, condemned to hang in Pakistan for “blasphemy” against Islam
Asia News is leading an effort to deliver as many messages as possible, whether through their site or directly to Pakistani President Zardari, demanding not only the release of Asia Bibi, but also lasting and meaningful reforms that remove Pakistan’s laws against blasphemy and insulting Islam as the scourge that they are on minority rights […]
Moderate Muslim who beheaded his wife claims jailers torturing and plotting to kill him
We have seen again and again over the years that Islamic supremacists never take responsibility for anything they have done, but instead constantly point fingers at others and claim victim status. And so it is with Muzzammil Hassan, the founder of Bridges TV, a network designed to show the true, peaceful face of Islam, and […]
Geller: The lesson of the Ghailani trial fiasco
Could the Guardian be waking up? Today they’ve run a piece by Pamela Geller on the Ghailani trial that, with its commonsensical, reasonable approach, differs sharply from that publication’s usual editorial line. “The lesson of Ghailani’s trial fiasco,” by Pamela Geller in the Guardian, November 18: On Wednesday, Ahmed Khalfan Ghailani, the first Guantánamo detainee […]
Kashmir: Misunderstanders of Islam riot after Eid prayers at mosque
You’d think they would have come out of the mosque in a state of calm and serenity, but clearly they misunderstood the message of peace they heard there. “Violence erupts in Kashmir Valley after Eid prayers,” from The Economic Times, November 17 (thanks to Maxwell): ANANTNAG: Protestors burnt a police vehicle near the Eidgah here […]
New York: First Gitmo detainee to face civilian trial acquitted of all but one charge
He worked for Osama bin Laden. He had a blasting cap in his room, and bought the gas tanks used in the truck bomb. And he is acquitted of everything but conspiracy. This case shows how unequipped civilian courts are to deal with cases like this. “Gitmo detainee acquitted of all but 1 charge in […]
Iran: Christian pastor accused of apostasy to die by hanging
Islamic apologists in the U.S. routinely deny that Islamic law mandates that apostates from Islam be murdered. Unfortunately for the apostates, the facts are otherwise. Muhammad, the prophet of Islam and supreme example of conduct for the Muslim (cf. Qur’an 33:21), said: “Whoever changes his Islamic religion, then kill him.” (Bukhari 9.84.57) The Tafsir al-Qurtubi, […]
New Jersey: Boy suspended from school because Muslim girl overheard him saying “Taliban”
She “perceived” that he was looking at her when he said it. And so he is duly suspended, because the new cardinal rule is that one must not offend the new Privileged Class. They say they suspended him because her feelings were hurt — yet if that became the criterion for suspension in high school, […]
Islamic hate site says Spencer is like a “cancer” that must be “cut out”
An Islamic hate site that offers excuses for jihad terror and windy pseudo-refutations, rife with errors of fact and logic, of my work has now crossed the line into open death threats: Mosizzle says: November 11, 2010 at 1:18 pm “Robert Spencer…[a] canny operative who likely has the inside track on the State Department’s Middle […]
UK: Muslim children threaten to murder classmate who supported British troops
The Daily Mail’s headline is part of the problem: “Five Muslim boys and white girl.” “Muslim” is not a race, and Darius Gill was not threatened because of race. He was threatened by children who are being raised in a radically intolerant, supremacist belief system that inculcates hatred of and contempt for people of other […]
