It’s not that this could become America’s problem. It already is, as Washington spends money hand over fist trying desperately to keep nuclear materials out of the hands of jihadists even with Pakistan’s current regime in place, let alone taking into account the possibility of its collapse. Islamabad has been living on borrowed time for […]

Thailand: Jihadists kill three Buddhists, burn their bodies
The intrepid mujahedin, keeping the world safe from Buddhists riding along in a pickup truck. “Rebels kill three, burn bodies in Thai south,” from Reuters, February 10 (thanks to Sr. Soph): PATTANI – Suspected Muslim separatists shot dead three Buddhists and burned their bodies in Thailand’s restive south, police said on Thursday, the latest violence […]
Senior cleric at one of Britain’s largest mosques threatens to sue over prime minister’s remarks on Islamic “extremism”
David Cameron stopped well short of accusing Islam itself of playing a role in jihadist violence and aggressive displays of Islamic supremacism in the U.K. But he criticized the Birmingham Central Mosque directly, and one of its senior clerics is angry enough to try to sue the prime minister. That raises a familiar set of […]
Indonesian man whose five-year sentence for “blasphemy” enraged Muslims had also insulted Catholics, who declined to go on a rampage
The Catholic and Protestant response to the Muslim rampage that followed Richmond Bawengan’s sentencing has been quite unlike that of the mob of thousands of Indonesian Muslims who went into the streets looking for Christian targets, and then burned three churches, an orphanage, and a health care center, invaded a Catholic church, and severely beat […]
“I would treat you like a GOAT”
Here is the latest from the guy who wants to kill me. Maybe he will, maybe he won’t; he may or may not be near me, but as far as I am concerned, the main thing is that we have to have people in the West who are willing to take risks for the sake […]
Deputy Chairman of the European Council for Fatwa and Research said Jews and Christians “disgraced themselves and their dhimmi covenant by distorting what Allah sent”
Islamic teachings appropriate almost every major religious figure in Judaism and Christianity and recast them as prophets and messengers of Islam. Therefore, when a spokesperson tells you Muslims follow Abraham, Moses, and Jesus and believe in the Torah (Taurat) and Gospel (Injil), they mean the unspoiled, Islamically correct copies they believe existed before Jews and […]
Australia: Former immigration minister warns country risks becoming “nation of enclaves”
He also calls attention to the many cases in which halal meat has entered the market without consumers’ knowing — a phenomenon not at all limited to Australia, but also found in the United States and Britain, even in the House of Commons. Why the subterfuge? Why not respect consumers’ rights to make their own […]
UC Irvine: 100 faculty members call for dismissal of charges against Muslims who organized disruption of Israeli ambassador’s speech — to promote the “healing process”
What if the shoe were on the other foot, and another campus group were found to have conspired to deny the right of free speech to a member of a fashionable left-wing cause in exactly the same manner? For this case, pressing charges against these Muslim students is inimical to “the healing process.” Never mind […]
Bosnian Muslim defendants in police station bombing refuse to recognize court
Did these guys and Daniel Patrick Boyd call each other? No, we periodically see accused jihadists who find themselves in court refusing to recognize the court’s authority to try them. After all, the fundamental aim of jihad is to impose Islamic law, which would do away with non-Islamic legal institutions. Fortunately, as much as they […]
“North Carolina man” pleads guilty in jihad plot
An update on this story: Daniel Patrick Boyd has found it in his heart to make a deal with with the court he initially rejected as “court of infidels.” “Man charged as NC terror ringleader pleads guilty,” by Mike Baker for the Associated Press, February 9 (thanks to Block Ness): A North Carolina man accused […]
