UPDATE: This JTA report was in error. See here. This means CAIR is officially “moderate,” right? Well, let’s look at the record: CAIR operatives have repeatedly refused to denounce Hamas and Hizballah as terrorist groups.

You run from police…You accidentally get electrocuted while hiding from police…You get a monument built in your honor…and the police go on trial!
This proceeding rewards criminality, reinforces a dhimmi posture on the part of French authorities toward the Islamic community, and hastens France’s cultural and societal demise. An update on this story. “2 French police to stand trial in deaths of teens,” by Pierre-Antoine Souchard for The Associated Press, October 22 (thanks to Phil): PARIS — Two […]

Syrian Catholic Patriarch of Antioch: “The Koran gives Muslims the right to judge Christians and kill them with Jihad”
He is right, of course, but the likely response, if he isn’t ignored, will be calls for him to apologize for his intolerance. “Vatican: Koran encourages ‘killing Christians,’” from AKI, October 22 (thanks to Weasel Zippers): Vatican City, 22 Oct.

Iranian ayatollah tells Catholic bishops that leaving Islam “is an act of unacceptable propaganda,” spreads historical falsehoods about the status of Christians in Islamic lands

Egypt: Coptic Christians fed to Muslim “lions”
For centuries, the Copts — Egypt’s Christian, indigenous inhabitants — have been subject to persecution, discrimination, humiliation, and over all subjugation in their homeland (etymologically, “Copt” simply means “Egyptian”). In the medieval era, such treatment was a standard aspect of sharia’s dhimmi codes, first ratified under Caliph Omar in the 7th century and based on […]
