Spanish lawyer accuses Obama at International Criminal Court of crimes against humanity for killing of bin Laden
Does Daniel Fiol think that the 9/11 attacks were a crime against humanity? Did he file a complaint with the ICC about them? I would expect not. This is just more of the hard Left’s moral myopia — and ironically directed at a man who has drastically misdiagnosed the problem of jihad and apparently thinks […]
Indonesia: Veiled teen girls send mock bomb to police officer
“Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power, including steeds of war, to strike terror into the hearts of the enemies, of Allah and your enemies…” — Qur’an 8:60 And apparently even teenage girls are getting into the act in Indonesia. “4 teenage girls nabbed for allegedly sending mock book bomb,” […]
A kafir is a kafir
It is very interesting to read and listen to the critics who say “why worry about Islam?” and “jihadism is not a threat.” Well, Muslims are building mosques in non-Muslim countries, and they want Sharia courts as well, and Iran is building nuclear reactors and bombs.

Video: Muslim verbally assaults old lady on Copenhagen city train
A Muslim guy brings honor to his culture by freaking out on a old lady on the s-train in Copenhagen: “Fuck you, you dog. Fat cow.” The Muslim guy talks about his rights and says that the other people on the train are discriminating against him, even as he acts in an intimidating manner. Ever […]
IAEA report: “you could only draw one conclusion — that Syria did have at Dair Alzour a clandestine nuclear plant”
China, an ally of Damascus, says it sees no point in pursuing this issue because the plant is not there anymore — only because Israel did the world a favor. Otherwise, the UN’s interaction with the Syrian nuclear program would be following the Iranian playbook to the letter: alternately paying lip service to cooperation and […]
Bodyguard who killed Karzai’s brother was trusted CIA contact before being recruited by Taliban
He “been working closely with US Special Forces and the CIA before he was recruited by the Taliban.” How is it that the Taliban were able to recruit him? When he went to work for the CIA, didn’t they determine that he rejected the Taliban’s ideology and version of Islam? In fact, they almost certainly […]
