In FrontPage this morning I discuss Barack Obama’s affinity with the Muslim Brotherhood, which he has recently greenlighted for participation in the next Egyptian government: […] Even worse, in April 2009, Obama appointed Arif Alikhan, the deputy mayor of Los Angeles, as Assistant Secretary for Policy Development at the Department of Homeland Security.

Spencer on the Glenn Beck Show with Eric Bolling, on Egypt and the Muslim Brotherhood
Tonight, along with Zuhdi Jasser and the appallingly antisemitic Michael Scheuer.
Taqiyya about taqiyya in the Washington Post
An Ahmadi Muslim writes a guest column in the Washington Post claiming to delineate moderate Muslim theology, but in reality, he just throws more sand in our eyes. “Will the real moderate Muslims please stand up?,” by Qasim Rashid in the Washington Post, February 2: Critics like Robert Spencer claim Islam allows Muslims to engage […]
Report: ElBaradei tells Mubarak to leave Egypt in 48 hours or be a “dead man walking”
Weasel Zippers notes what curious language this is from a past recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize.

Wikileaks: Urgent cables warn al-Qaeda is stockpiling materials for “dirty bomb” campaign
Warnings and rumors about an al-Qaeda “dirty bomb” and other nuclear, biological, and chemical attacks are nothing new, of course.

U.K.: Voting reform campaigner dismissed over tweet poking fun at Muhammad, Muslim MP wants case referred to police
That’s right. The police. That’s what they’re there for, right? To serve and protect against murder, rape, theft, assault, and… insults to a stone-dead man who isn’t even around to have his feelings hurt. What if Ben Donnelly had said something on the same level about Jesus? Well, we know there would be no demonstrations […]
Bangladesh: 15-year-old girl dies during punishment straight out of the Qur’an
Qur’an 24:2: “The woman and the man guilty of adultery or fornication,- flog each of them with a hundred stripes: Let not compassion move you in their case, in a matter prescribed by Allah, if ye believe in Allah and the Last Day: and let a party of the Believers witness their punishment.” Cruel and […]
Canada: ‘Human Rights’ Tribunal orders woman’s house seized after she said Muslim employee’s lunch smelled bad
Luckily the Superior Court struck down this insane decision, but it ain’t over. “Superior Court rules Ontario Human Rights Tribunal hearing was unfair,” by Moira Welsh for the Toronto Star, February 1 (thanks to the incomparable and peerless Kathy Shaidle): A Mississauga businesswoman whose home was ordered seized to pay an Ontario Human Rights Tribunal […]
