Turkey, welcome to your future. Where threats from Islamic groups are allowed to shut down one event and their behavior is tolerated, they will try it again, with ever flimsier excuses. And civil society will spiral down the drain as it becomes accepted that the threat of piously thuggish behavior cancels the rights to free […]

Iranian Children’s TV Show Depicts U.S. Using Bin Laden to Carry Out 9/11
OBL is simultaneously a hero for attacking the United States, and a stooge of the Great Satan. “Iranian Children’s TV Show Depicts U.S. Using Bin Laden to Carry Out 9/11,” from MEMRI, May 13 (thanks to Block Ness): Following are excerpts from an Iranian children’s show on Osama bin Laden and 9/11.

Islamic charities from Saudi Arabia and UAE giving $100 million yearly to jihad in Pakistan
And where is that money coming from? From our gas pumps. And note here again the connection to Islamic charities. This should not surprise anyone: in Islam, funding jihad is a meritorious, charitable act. “‘Pakistani jihad networks funded by Saudi, UAE charities,’” from Reuters, May 22 (thanks to Tziona): Islamic charities from Saudi Arabia and […]
Pakistan: Jihad-linked spy chief threatens U.S. over drone strikes
This is the same Ahmad Shuja Pasha who is accused of complicity in the Mumbai jihad mass-murders. “Pakistan spy chief asks U.S. to end drone strikes: report,” by Kamran Haider and Rebecca Conway for Reuters, May 22 (thanks to Ima): ISLAMABAD (Reuters) – Pakistan’s intelligence chief has reportedly asked the United States to stop its […]
Pakistan: Muslim doctor attacks Christian nurses in latest spate of anti-Christian violence
They missed Zardari’s “peace and tranquility” memo in Punjab. This story describes three recent incidents; for the frequency with which such stories come out of Pakistan, one can only wonder what else goes on unreported. “Punjab, anti-Christian violence: nurses sequestered, families evicted from home,” by Jibran Khan for Asia News, May 21: Lahore (AsiaNews) – […]
Reading Jihad Watch in Tehran
Yesterday I posted here at Jihad Watch about an Episcopal church in New Jersey that plans tomorrow to feature the Islamic call to prayer and readings from the Qur’an. The original article was entitled “Interfaith Service at St. John’s Parish in Montclair.” I entitled my post “New Jersey Episcopal church to feature Muslim call to […]
Tunisia: Muslim leader says “Arab Spring” will lead to the elimination of Israel
His prediction also matches that of another “Islamist” politician in Egypt, just reported yesterday. Did these guys call each other? No, what we have is another case of striking uniformity in alleged “misunderstanders” of Islam that are geographically well removed from one another. Funny how that keeps happening. “Muslim Brotherhood leader of Tunisia calls for […]
Group behind “Nakba Day” attempts to invade Israel calls for more riots, launches new plot for mass landing at Israeli airports
The first incident was for “Nakba Day,” and the next is to commemorate the start of the Six-Day-War. You may be noticing a pattern: these spectacles are designed to demand a do-over for wars in which Arab Muslim states were handed embarrassing losses when they thought they could polish off the Jewish state fairly easily, […]
Egypt: Over 1000 Muslims attempt to block reopening of church
They don’t make the rules, they just go on rampages to enforce them: Islamic law forbids the construction of new churches or the repair of existing ones. And closed churches are expected to stay that way. As usual, the headline does its utmost to make the hatred and violence appear to be a reciprocal affair. […]
“Enough is enough”: Australian Copts protest persecution and abductions in Egypt
Echoing this report, which shows how spurious allegations of Christian abductions of Muslims (and alleged converts to Islam) in Egypt and the ensuing rampages against churches have provided a handy distraction from an increase in disappearances of Coptic girls. “Copts speak out about Egypt violence,” from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, May 21 (thanks to Dumbledoresarmy): […]
